Epic Mickey was limited by the Wii hardware.The game could have been so much better on the HD consoles.

Patriots_Pride4427d ago

Hence the reason this annoucement will be exclusive to the superior console and not some 6 year old tech.

Wii U will make M$ and $ony think twice about holding off on annoucing the PS4 and 720

DonMingos4427d ago

the superior console that isn´t even out? I doubt it will be exclusive to it. And if it is as superior to the ps3 and 360 as the wii was to the ps2, xbox, gc and dc, then it won´t be much impressive.

TheDareDevil4427d ago

Whoa! A Nintendo fanboy? Achtung will be proud of you

Drekken4427d ago

Those money signs aren't signs that indicate a companies greed... they indicate your level of douche. In this case - CEO of Summers Eve.

GraveLord4427d ago

Too bad for you Wii U is a very small improvement over the Xbox 360.

If parent want to by their kids a cheap HD system, they'll buy an Xbox 360 or PS3, not a Wii U.

aCasualGamer4427d ago

"Superior console" won't be as superior when PS4 and 720 is announced with triple the horsepower.

There is no way in hell that graphics whore(say that in the most positive way) companies like Microsoft and Sony will just release a gaming console that is on par with Nintendos Wii U. EVEN though they won't be as powerful as PS3 or 360 were compared to lastgen, they will be more powerful than Wii U.

Anything below the new Unreal Engine Tech Demo is not acceptable to me.

honkyjesus4426d ago

The Wii U is Nintendo's foray into the current generation. How can you look at a console about as powerful as the 360 as next gen?

That being said, Nintendo is doing their own thing. Which is why you play Mario and Zelda titles, not BioShock and Uncharted titles.

Nimblest-Assassin4426d ago

Sorry mate, but the Wii U feels like a catch up with the PS3 and 360.

I should know, I owned a Wii before I got a PS3. Hell, I was pro nintendo for a majority of my life.

But the Wii became boring after Brawl, a myraid of boring, gimmicky third party releases with only a few gems being released every once and a while.

I have no regrets getting a PS3 back in 2008, well maybe the one I should have waited 2 more months till the slims came out, but still no regrets.

The WiiU will be that catch up,its getting the third party support it needs with titles like Batman Arkham City and Assassins Creed 3 but from the tech demos I have seen for it, it just feels really gimmicky.

Also when Sony and Microsoft make their new consoles, Nintendo will be left in the dust again. The wii suceeded because it appealed to the casual market as non gamers started to buy it.

MS and Sony were late to this craze and are trying to attract those gamers with the move and kinect, but once sony and ms move on, Nintendo will be left in the dust unless they can strike a cord with the hardcore and casual and make them want to buy their console, rather than sole nintendo loyalists.

I'll get a Wii U eventually, but I will wait and see how the console progresses.

No more buy on release dates like the 3ds.

showtimefolks4426d ago (Edited 4426d ago )

superior console that we know so little about? think about it by fall of this year both ps3 and xbox360 should be between 65-70 million or close to that number why would you pass up 120 million console base for a console which will or may launch in fall 2012?

both sony and ms have proved their console now the ball is in nintendo's corner, don't forget nintendo has to gain a lot of support from 3rd party publishers who could not gain much from wii besides party or exercise games

i still say release epic mickey on xbox360 and ps3 maybe via digitally or maybe on disk for 29.99

the closer we get to E3 the more and more will be revealed

Sgt_Slaughter4426d ago

Just shut the **** up people!!! I am sick to god damn death of the fanboys, trolls, and the people who will bash the other companies when they are doing really good things for the Gaming Industry. If some of you would just play games for all 3 companies, then you would see how pathetic this current Console Generation has become. Last gen was all about the games and the new better graphics, but this gen is all about online play, which ruins some if not all games that have a single player campaign as the main focus point, DLC that over charges players for content that is all ready on the damn disk itself but Developers are too greedy to let us have it for free, (I'm looking at you, EA and Activision...), and bashing games because one or two minor things are wrong with the game. I'm done ranting now because my head is hurting from all of the stupidity from some "gamers" on N4G. Nuff Said'...

sikbeta4426d ago (Edited 4426d ago )

@Patriots_Pride

"this annoucement will be exclusive to the superior console and not some 6 year old tech"

And then be left behind by the Superior Xbox3 and PS4 trolololol

@NYC_Gamer

Epic Mickey was s***, because they scrapped all the things in the concept and it end up like nothing different, it got nothing to do with HW...

Gametrailers tease "overhyped announcement that disappoints".

As is tradition.

OcularVision4426d ago

Yeah that Skyrim tease was such a disappointment...............

Rolento4426d ago

As was its buggy release.

Proeliator4427d ago

Deus Ex remake.

Come on, Warren.

BEFORE THE APOCALYPSE WE NEED THIS!

turgore4427d ago

Deus Ex 1 is perfect. Doesn't need a remake. Not for another 10 years.

STONEY44426d ago

Deus Ex: Gold Edition. Updated to the mindblowing next-gen engine which allows high-quality post processing of gold outlines on every object in the game. Gold crates, gold ladders, gold buttons. Even the box is gold.

mttrackmaster384426d ago

That made me laugh heartily. Good joke.

Nimblest-Assassin4426d ago

you did not like the gold in HR?

What a shame...

I bet you never asked for this...

Ok... I ran out of Deus Ex memes

Kidmyst4427d ago

Epic Mickey in HD on the PS3 or 360 would be great. Liked Epic mickey but didn't look as good as it could on my big screen.

frostypants4427d ago

A "blowout"? Did they sh*t themselves?

A Look Back at Disney Games on PlayStation Handhelds

VGChartz's Adam Cartwright: "There are few brands out there that have anything like the appeal and recognition of Disney. Thanks to decades of beautiful and critically acclaimed animated films, the company is a household name that has expanded beyond just movies to include a variety of other ventures, including videogames. Disney has also grown its lineup considerably in recent years by acquiring Marvel, Pixar, and Star Wars (although for the purposes of this article, I’ll only be covering Disney/Pixar output).

Thanks to their broad audience, Disney games usually show up on every viable platform out there, meaning that despite the brand’s affinity with Nintendo’s younger-skewing audience, both the PSP and Vita received a number of titles throughout their lives. Some of this was through Disney's own developer/publisher (Disney Interactive Studios), but the firm also licensed out its IPs for other companies to try their hand at – with somewhat mixed results."

Xbox Game Pass Announces New Games - Alien: Isolation, The Walking Dead: Season 2, and More

Xbox Wire: "It’s true, constantly bringing more games to you is kind of our schtick at Xbox Game Pass, so let’s talk about the journey these latest additions took to get from us to you! We started with the customary good luck ceremony, during which we wrote heartfelt haikus in tribute to each game, and the social media team sang their rehearsal solos for the Xbox Game Pass: The Musical."

Nice adds. I like how their site has fun with the announcements.

lxeasy1895d ago

I heard really good things about the Alien game. Gonna check out. Another win for Gamepass

mark_parch1895d ago

alien isolation is a great game. I love how they stayed true to the original film with the late 70's sci fi vibe.

Estevez1895d ago

Alien: Isolation has the highest number of players who never finished the game - of all the games... this is why I never bothered with it...

gam3r_4_lif31895d ago

Alien isolation is great. It just needed some editing. If it was about 30% shorter it woukd have been a masterpiece

gam3r_4_lif31895d ago

@Estvez yeah because it got very repetitive and rather than them wrap it up and bring it home they added another 10- 15 hours of nothing new. But would defo check it out on GP if you never played it, it really is faithful to look of the movie and still looks great now

Greedsin1895d ago

It's a fantastic horror game, the Alien AI really keeps you on your toes.

Automatic791895d ago

I agree lots of great games.

Bnet3431895d ago

One of the few bright spots for the Xbox One is the Xbox Game Pass. I am waiting for them to be the Netflix of gaming. Even for new titles. That's the goal. That would be so awesome. That's like their main selling point.

Bronxs151894d ago (Edited 1894d ago )

The native 4k triple A 3rd party games like far cry 5, shadow of tomb raider, red dead 2 and metro exodus is also a selling point to me. and backwards compatibility with some 360 and OG Xbox games get free 4K patches like half life the orange box and KOTR. Also More and Better free games with gold and you actually keep the Xbox 360 free games forever. And they offer pretty good ones I’ve filled out my gaming library with good titles like South Park stick of truth for example. The controller and 4K blu Ray playback are nice as well.
And while they don’t have the best game library of all platforms there are still pretty great games that can’t be played on a Nintendo or Sony system like games in the halo Forza gears franchise and new games like ori and the blind forest quantum break from remedy sunset overdrive from insomniac. Plus looking forward to new games from ninja theory.

But your right game pass is a big plus. Getting titles like doom, hitman, shadow of the tomb raider, rise of tomb raider, fallout 4, rocket league, alien isolation, resident evil revelations, plus all first party Microsoft games is a damn sweet deal!

Greedsin1895d ago

It's shocking how much speed Game pass has picked up recently. The selection of new games is great so far.
