Watch Dogs director clears up the trailer on twitter, kind of.

User: what version was that?


Morin: Its simply someone who don't know the tech who check the wrong stuff... So no versions here...


User: Why show it, then? iOS version?


Morin: You know sometimes 100s of people working together causes communications issues lets just say that wink.gif...

User: The graphic whores are all out today because of the Aisha npc trailer. For the whiners, What was that trailer running on?


Morin: No worry to have on graphics at all wink.gif believe me smile.gif

User: Agreed. It looked like absolute shit.


Morin: Love your passion guys but I see the game every day and I can tell you, this trailer is far from it...

User: So it was a botched trailer? I thought it was hilarious lol. Just the visuals were shocking compared to E3


Morin: It was indeed hilarious in its own way I guess... wink.gif

User: you may not make this decision. But please don't release a Wii U version that can't outperform last gen. Like let's not do that


Morin: Agreed, I played the Wii U version last week... Should be fine smile.gif

Miyamoto 4gamer interview:



   Pikmin 3 and Wii Fit U among others were originally planned in the lineup from around January to March.

   At this time last year we were still working on them with that in mind but the truth of the matter is that we had our hands full working with shaders in HD.  At this point we’ve found one way to work with them so I think we’ll be able to make up lost ground.  Even still, the hardware development itself was delayed.  If that is delayed, pre-development also gets delayed and it has an effect on the game development.

   If you develop a game once the hardware is already out there, there isn’t too much of an effect but when you are improving on both together, there is an effect, unfortunately.

"Nintendo’s share price is actually 37% up on this time last year." - IGN

Batman for Wii U has no online mode. I am going to give some blame to Nintendo. They refuse to add any online modes to their games. The system might as well be an offline system, The onlin infrastructure is a joke. There is no reason for third parties to try if Nintendo themselves wont.

Nintendo's just [overly] picky with which franchises go online. That said, they should already have released a big title with a major online component. The fact that the Wii U version of Batman is missing such a huge feature is a major disappointment to me. The game is going to cost just as much on the Wii U.

Gamespot reviews Pikmin 3 8.0 - "Pikmin 3 doesn't offer much growth from previous games in the series, and actually takes a step backward in some areas"

I think more and more Gamespot reviewers live in their own little world where the rules of legitimate reviewing doesn't exist. They gave The Raven a 5.0 and found a way to make sure they were at least tied for the lowest rating of Pikmin 3. And I'm pretty sure when all is done and said, their 8.5 for Cloudberry Kingdom will be way above the average.

8's a good score. But besides that there are what ... 4-5 staff reviewers there now?  Of course they have groupthink.  Gamespot is such a squandered opportunity given their traffic and ownership.  Ah well.

Oh I'm not arguing that 8 is a bad score. Only that when I look at the Metacritic scores the lowest that any reviewer has given Pikmin 3 is an 8. Therefore it means that Gamespot gave the game its' lowest score. And when I see that there's this little voice I hear in my head that says, "yeah.... par for the course."

Honestly I've stopped reading their reviews after the RE6 review. Too many shenanigans there I say.
