Q2 2014 undoubtedly brings a good balance between brand new IPs and exciting game sequels that are sure to keep you on your toes no matter what your favourite gaming platorms are.
VGChartz's Mark Nielsen: "10 years. It’s been almost 10 years since the last mainline release in the Mario Kart series. Mario Kart 8 came out for the Wii U in 2014 and became the best-selling game for the system by a sizeable margin, and later pulled the same magic trick on the Nintendo Switch under the stage name Deluxe. All in all, it's sold nearly 70 million copies over the last decade and is still selling like hot cakes to this day, so it’s no wonder Nintendo has been in no rush to replace it. However, with rumors of a new system being just around the corner, and reports a few years back that a new Mario Kart is indeed under way, it seems the era of 8 might very well be drawing to a close. It’s an exciting prospect to be sure, but after two Nintendo systems with Mario Kart 8 at their heart, a lot of questions remain about how Nintendo will choose to follow it up."
I hope they just keep building on Mario Kart 8; Add a track-creation tool, and probably open it up to more Nintendo IPs with new tracks and characters, so Metroid, Punch Out, Starfox, Animal Crossing, etc etc.
there wont be a new one until the switch 2 comes out.
nintendo needs their bangers early on
If you are looking for a bargain, check out the huge discounts across the entire WatchDogs series on Steam.
Nintendo has recently restored Wii U Mario Kart 8 and Splatoon online after five months of being offline.
A pretty good range of games incoming given we've just changed console generations :).
Good list but I see this is a AU list. Other noteble games on the list is MLB The Show 14, Kinect Sports Rival, and hopefully, The last of US on PS4.
Hmmm, only watch dogs blows my skirt up in this list.
That said, I have a horrible feeling that I'll be waiting a while for a game that will be good enough to stop me turning the console off in boredom.
Maybe I'm just not getting that certain something from it.
I need something simple, yet genius
I'm on my toes for Bound By Flame and Final Fantasy XIV on the PS4. I never had a PS3 and my PC isn't up to scratch so it's my first foray into FFXIV, and I loved the beta so I'll be sure to be there for the phase 2 beta on 4th April.
I think in terms of PS4 gaming I'm quite lucky to have found a decent timesink early on, if not for FFXIV and being currently engrossed by the FFX HD Remaster on the Vita I'd be twiddling my thumbs waiting for Destiny or Tom Clancy's The Mission, those are my 'what I bought a PS4 for' titles.
Future releases may be sparse for some but I'm glad I'm being kept busy, its probably been about 7 years since I last had a dry spell.
so watch dogs, murdered soul susupect and kinect sports rivals. yea that should hold me over till Destiny. I hope
