Nintendo Will Shut Down Miiverse This November

Nintendo Will Shut Down Miiverse This November

, , , , 0

If anything signals that Nintendo is running away from their Wii U era as fast as possible, it’s this: Miiverse is about to be shut down. The unique social messaging service was created for the Wii U gamepad and later ported to 3DS. The move was confirmed for Japan yesterday, and confirmed globally today. It’s understandable why this is happening — now that Nintendo has a much more successful product on the market, they’d prefer not to spend any more resources on a failure. That doesn’t mean it isn’t sad. Not only will the Wii U’s opening screen, directly tied to Miiverse, feel empty now, so will a lot of games that took advantage of the service. Effects range from the simple absence of user comments to the disappearance of entire features. Super Mario Maker (Wii U): Users will still be able to share levels, but will no longer be able to comment on them. Mario vs. Donkey Kong: Tipping Stars (Wii U, Nintendo 3DS): While users will still be

E3 2017: Nintendo Is Considering More Wii U Ports To Switch

E3 2017: Nintendo Is Considering More Wii U Ports To Switch

, , , 0

When the Nintendo Switch was announced, a surprise reveal was that Mario Kart 8 was going to be coming out to the console as Mario Kart 8 Deluxe. Then, a few weeks ago, Nintendo revealed Pokken Tournament DX for the Switch. Both of these games were made for the Wii U, but then ported to the Switch with extra content, new modes, more characters, etc. Though welcome (and in the case of Mario Kart 8, very successful) players wondered just how many more Wii U ports were coming to Switch. Well, at E3, IGN asked this very question to Nintendo Of America President Reggie Fils-Aime. Who noted that there’s always the option for that, because the Wii U wasn’t as successful as the Switch is inevitably going to be: “The internal conversations we have is that on one hand, the development teams would love to showcase their content to a wider base, and certainly in short order the install base on Nintendo Switch will be larger than the install base

Five Things Learned From Hacking Zelda: Breath Of The Wild

Five Things Learned From Hacking Zelda: Breath Of The Wild

, , , , , , , , 0

Two game modders who go by the handles MrBean and Chadderz have created what they’ve deemed the “Accio Master Code,” a hack for the Wii U version of Breath of the Wild that allows any object in the game to be spawned anywhere. MrBean used his new creation to create some amusing videos (they’re a must-watch and can be seen at the end of this post). Through these wacky shenanigans, he uncovered game mechanics and physics quirks nobody ever knew about, because they were next-to-impossible to recreate in the original game. Like these….. If the game senses there are more objects on the screen than it can handle, it automatically triggers a Blood Moon and resets everything. MrBean discovered this by summoning a billion birds. There is a limit to how many Heart Containers you can collect (30), but there doesn’t appear to be one for Stamina Vessels. Even though there is no on-screen indicator Link has more than the game can give him, it still counts the extra stamina

The Legend of Zelda: Breath of the Wild Review (Wii U)

The Legend of Zelda: Breath of the Wild Review (Wii U)

, , , , , , 3

The Legend of Zelda: Breath of the Wild is incredibly well done. The graphics are awe-inspiring and the gameplay offers a solid and reliable experience. Breath of the Wild doesn’t give you enough opportunities to grow emotionally attached to the characters vital to story progression, but it does do a fantastic job of otherwise achieving the illusion that Link exists in a living, breathing, and fully realized world. This review contains some minor spoilers starting now. In The Legend of Zelda: Breath of the Wild, Link awakens in a chamber, clad in nothing but his skivvies. He’s been brought back to a post-apocalyptic Hyrule to fight and win the battle against Calamity Ganon he was sorely unprepared for 100 years prior. Without any memories of his previous life, Link must find armor, weapons, gather supplies, make new friends, find old ones and piece together how Hyrule was overtaken and what he must do to restore it. If there’s one complaint about the main storyline it’s that the Breath of the Wild strongly favors exploration

Could The Switch Bring Nintendo Into The Console Wars?

Could The Switch Bring Nintendo Into The Console Wars?

, 0

When many gamers hear the term ‘Console Wars,’ they normally think of the everlasting battle between Sony and Microsoft, with the pair constantly releasing better and better versions of the PlayStation and Xbox respectively. And that’s not even including those who label themselves as part of the ‘PC Master Race.’ However, with the release of The Switch, Nintendo is hoping to change that. The company has long tried to become a major contender when it comes to the console wars, with the Wii and Wii U being some of Nintendo’s biggest attempt to take on Sony and Microsoft. At the time, though, nothing really came of it, other than disappointed fans and money spent on what was essentially a flop. With The Switch, it looks like the company is looking to enter into another crusade against the Xbox One and PlayStation 4, but things aren’t looking too good for the portable console. So far, signs point to a launch that may be similar to that of the Wii and Wii

Will The Nintendo Switch Be A Repeat Of The Wii U?

Will The Nintendo Switch Be A Repeat Of The Wii U?

, 0

The Wii U was released five years ago now, and by most standards, it was an unmitigated disaster; promises from Nintendo went unfulfilled, players had to wait much longer than originally thought in order for new games to be released, and overall, the Wii U was pretty much a sub-par console. It’s why Nintendo hasn’t been a factor in the console wars between the PlayStation and Xbox. Now, however, the company is looking to try change that with the Nintendo Switch. If you’re looking to bet on whether or not the Switch will succeed as a console – and possibly bring the company back into the fray when it comes to the console wars between Sony and Microsoft – then you don’t have to look back much farther than the Wii U. So far, things aren’t looking great when it comes to how the release, and subsequent months, will pan out. According to a number of reports, almost everything that the Wii U lacked upon its release, the Switch is

Axiom Verge To Be Published On Disc With Bonus Features

Axiom Verge To Be Published On Disc With Bonus Features

, , , , , 0

Remember Axiom Verge? It’s a sidescrolling exploration game heavily inspired by Metroid that won the hearts of critics everywhere in 2015. It’s a game so good, you could buy it twice. Now you should give that thought serious consideration, as a version for your shelf will be released soon. The physical version of Axiom Verge will be out in two forms: a “Standard Edition” that’s super-cheap at just $20, and a “Multiverse Edition” that bumps the price to $30 but includes a deluxe booklet with developer’s commentary and art, a double-sided poster, and a making-of documentary on DVD. It’s the documentary that’s the real prize, since the story behind Axiom Verge is almost as good as the game itself. It was created by one solitary man: Petroglyph Games engineer Tom Happ. He worked on the game in his spare time for five years, and pulled off results more impressive than twenty-employee teams. “Fans have been asking for a physical retail version of Axiom Verge since the game originally launched,” says

Nintendo Reveals Justification For Zelda: Breath of the Wild DLC

Nintendo Reveals Justification For Zelda: Breath of the Wild DLC

, , , , , , , , 0

In what is a first for The Legend of Zelda franchise, Nintendo has confirmed that Breath of the Wild will get post-launch downloadable content. The significant expansion was revealed when the company announced that they would be selling a season pass for the DLC, taking many by surprise as the publisher has largely avoided adding extra content to their games via paid downloads. While the move to create DLC for the game has divided fans, Nintendo’s Bill Trinen explained exactly why they were introducing future expansion to the franchise for the first time. In an interview with IGN, Trien said that the expansion was still being worked on right now and would not be completed for some time, allaying fears that it would be content that was held back from the retail release of the game. “It was tough, because we actually had a lot of debate in terms of do we announce it, how do we announce it,” Trinen said. “I think one of the things that’s unique about

Breath Of The Wild Rated E-10 For Use Of Alcohol

Breath Of The Wild Rated E-10 For Use Of Alcohol

, , , , , , 0

It’s harder to sneak material past the ESRB than it once was. Back in the 90’s Banjo and Kazooie could cram their games with subtle innuendo and get it all under the radar, but The Man is more alert to that sort of thing now. That’s why The Legend of Zelda: Breath of the Wild has been stamped with an E-10 for “mild suggestive themes and an alcohol reference.” Zelda has gotten the “suggestive themes” descriptor before, for games it already released without it. The 3DS versions of Ocarina of Time and Majora’s Mask got E-10s reportedly for that busty, nearly-naked Great Fairy — on the N64 she was shrieking and traumatizing kids of all ages. The remakes were also tagged with “Animated Blood,” when back in the day you could just make it green and get an E. Not anymore. But it’s the suggestion of booze that’s turning heads. Apparently this is because you can walk into a cafe/bar at some point and witness NPCs laughing and hiccuping while

Zelda Team Claims They’ve Cracked The Secret of Open-World Storytelling

Zelda Team Claims They’ve Cracked The Secret of Open-World Storytelling

, , , , , 0

Open-world games are great, but they’ve historically lacked in one category: story. This is due to the nature of the game itself: stories are linear, and if you’re given the freedom to do whatever you want, controlling the flow of the story becomes impossible. Or does it? Today Game Informer published a video interview with Zelda creator Shigeru Muyamoto and Eiji Aonuma, producer of the next big Zelda game, Breath of the Wild. Since it appears to be an open-world game, they were asked about this problem — and Miyamoto just smiled and said Aonuma “knows how to do it.” “There is a little bit of a trick that I implemented this time,” Aonuma explained. “This idea is something I’ve had since I started developing games 20-some odd years ago. So I really want you to look forward to playing the game and finding this something that I put in there.” So no, they’re not going to tell you what the solution to open-world storytelling is — at least, not

Nintendo’s Wii U Exits Production

Nintendo’s Wii U Exits Production

, , 0

Nintendo announced late last year that they would be stopping production of the Wii U shortly before the release of the Switch, and the last day of January was the day they followed through. As of now, no more Wii U units will be produced for any region of the world. The stock that’s left is all that will ever be. What’s unusual about this console is that, unlike similar machines that failed to catch on (including those from Nintendo itself), the Wii U was never discounted from its $300-$350 base price. There were bundles and pack-in games which technically gave the consumer a better value, but Nintendo never budged on the 3 Benjamins as entry. The Virtual Boy was discounted several times, the Gamecube and N64 had their prices lowered and even the Wii eventually took a price cut. But the Wii U never did, and we may never know why. It is already very difficult to spot one of the remaining Wii Us on store shelves. If you
