Hey there is some gigantic multiplayer focused shooter that will sell millions coming out tomorrow. I am so glad to be part of a site that doesn't give a shit.

Oooooohhhhhh. Crap.

I am going to GameStop tomorrow to pick up Type-0 and maybe Resdient Evil... I ---HATE--- going there on days when a shooter comes out...  Argh!

The Mountain Dew levels will be through the roof!

What comes out tomorrow?  Battlefield?  Does anyone care about that series anymore?

That just goes to show how out of touch I am with a lot of these games.  I truly had no clue it was coming out.

007 Quantum of Solace is utter shit. I seriously had to check this was not a PS2 game.

But I will keep going.

Wasn't this their last attempt at a Bond game?

"Treyarch" "made" the "game" and it so screams, "we are doing this so we fulfill our licensing agreement".

It is so bad, that I had to momentarily check I was playing a PS3 game, not a PS2 game on a backward compatible PS3.

I am guessing Activision actuially subbed this out to a battery hen with a keyboard and a tiara rather than waste Treyarch's time on it.

Marvelous acquires owner of classic Data East game catalog

This is an interesting bit of news. I loved a lot of the old Data East games (that reminds me I need to pop in my copy of the Data East Arcade Classics for the Wii), and would love to see what Marvelous will do with it. Granted most of them were B-level franchises, but I think there's enough of an audience here that they could do some good things with the games they've acquired, even if it's just rereleases and collections.  These are some of the IP's that they get from Data East:

  • BurgerTime
  • Karnov
  • Fighter's History
  • Bad Dudes
  • Joe & Mac
  • Lock 'n' Chase
  • Magical Drop
  • Side Pocket
  • Gates of Doom/Dragon Fire series
  • Break Thru

Again, not many killer iconic series, outside of BurgerTime, but there's a few notable games all the same. Crossing my fingers for something with Karnov or BurgerTime.

Data East is a great catalog to pick up.  Good for them.  Who owns OCEAN's shit these days? EDIT: Internet says whatever homeless dude is currently pushing Atari around in his cart owns the rights to OCEAN games.

Someday we'll find it, the rainbow connection, the lovers, the dreamers and me.

I also wish to want a game for a current gen console. Someday.

Here's Iwata's quote on the NX, translated officially by Nintendo:

  • As proof that Nintendo maintains strong enthusiasm for the dedicated game system business, let me confirm that Nintendo is currently developing a dedicated game platform with a brand-new concept under the development codename "NX". It is too early to elaborate on the details of this project, but we hope to share more information with you next year.

Also, Iwata said Nintendo's new membership service would play a key role in NX.

  • Nintendo, together with DeNA, will jointly develop a new membership service which encompasses the existing Nintendo 3DS and Wii U systems, the new hardware system with a brand-new concept, NX, and smart devices and PCs, and Nintendo will be the primary party to operate this new membership service.
  • Unlike the Club Nintendo membership service that Nintendo has been operating, the new membership service will include multiple devices and create a connection between Nintendo and each individual consumer regardless of the device the consumer uses. This membership will form one of the core elements of the new Nintendo platform that I just mentioned.

Microsoft definitely has more quality console exclusives than Sony does at this point. But yeah, almost everything across both consoles is also on PC, outside of the few 1st-party games.

Iwata on dedicated gaming system and Dena etc:

While this is not something directly relating to the collaboration that we have announced today, here is one thing I would like to mention to avoid any misunderstandings.

Nintendo has decided to deploy its video game business on smart devices but it is not because we have lost passion or vision for the business of dedicated video game systems. On the contrary, now that we have decided how we will make use of smart devices, we have come to hold an even stronger passion and vision for the dedicated video game system business than ever before. Nintendo has made this decision because we have concluded that the approach of making use of smart devices is a rational way for us to encourage even more people around the world to recognize the great value of the wonderful game software available on our dedicated game systems.

As proof that Nintendo maintains strong enthusiasm for the dedicated game system business, let me confirm that Nintendo is currently developing a dedicated game platform with a brand-new concept under the development codename “NX.” It is too early to elaborate on the details of this project, but we hope to share more information with you next year.

Source

Note: We do not know if it is a handheld or a set-top console. They made no clarifications on this point whatsoever.


Some people are posting that Iwata said that NX was "merging the gap" between handhelds and consoles but they did not say this about NX, rather about their new membership/account service.

It would be foolish of Nintendo to put all their eggs in one basket, or more apptly, to merge all their baskets into one.

Not too sure how I feel about Nintendo entering the mobile games market.  Either they do so with digital versions of their back catalog, in which case they risk detracting from their home console/handheld userbase.  Or they go F2P, risking a few duds that will damage their IP.
