Ronnie Posted April 4, 2014 Posted April 4, 2014 Without a doubt the most beautiful game Nintendo have ever made, and if this is what they can do with landscapes and vistas I'd be more than happy for the next Mario game to ditch space and stay on land!

Just imagine what Zelda is gonna look like? *faints*
Fierce_LiNk Posted April 4, 2014 Posted April 4, 2014 Dat gif. (Yaaay, I get to use that gif twice in a minute) Just imagine what Zelda is gonna look like? *faints* *unzips pants* My body is ready...to pre-order. I think it's time, brah. Game looks stunning. It's going to look shit hot.
Ronnie Posted April 4, 2014 Posted April 4, 2014 Just imagine what Zelda is gonna look like? *faints* Droool. All about art style though, hope they nail it, like they clearly have for MK8. Though if a ten minute period in my dreams last night were any indication, Zelda U will end up being a horribly underwhelming mostly 2D side-scrolling game.
bryanee Posted April 4, 2014 Posted April 4, 2014 OM NOM NOM NOM NOM NOM NOM This is going to have voice chat right?
Zechs Merquise Posted April 4, 2014 Posted April 4, 2014 Funny, the Wii U is the 'underpowered' console this gen, yet ironically Mario Kart U is the best looking game coming out this year!
Ronnie Posted April 4, 2014 Posted April 4, 2014 The quality Ninty have been putting out this past year or so has been pretty phenomenal
-Dem0- Posted April 4, 2014 Posted April 4, 2014 Pikmin 3 is the most visually impressive game I've ever played, but MK8 is going to leap-frog it!
Mr_Master_X2 Posted April 4, 2014 Posted April 4, 2014 Droool. All about art style though, hope they nail it, like they clearly have for MK8. Though if a ten minute period in my dreams last night were any indication, Zelda U will end up being a horribly underwhelming mostly 2D side-scrolling game. I actually started planning (in my head) a sequel to Zelda 2. 2D Like the other, with a huge map to lead to new areas forests, cave, desserts, castles etc.(including bonus secret ones). Level-up system for you/magic/weapons. Metroid style explore/get new abilities/pass new area system. Sword fighting mechanics being some sort of weird beat-emup style mechanics with many new techniques to learn.. Items including a special "Fairy in a Bottle" that you guides around he screen with the stylus to do special things (uses magic up).
Cookyman Posted April 4, 2014 Posted April 4, 2014 I never post on here as I kind of fell out of love with Nintendo however - respect where respect is due that's a fine looking game.
Ike Posted April 4, 2014 Author Posted April 4, 2014 No idea if this is known, but the latest issue of ONM confirmed two player local online. It was new to me.
Mokong Posted April 4, 2014 Posted April 4, 2014 *returns from blackout on this game* Since I'm going to be away from June 1st to June 7th I decided to Book May 30th off work so I can have a full day with this before heaidng off for the week Got the holiday request returned today as approved : peace: *returns to blackout*
dazzybee Posted April 4, 2014 Posted April 4, 2014 Only 2 player local online... Sonic racing had 5 player local online...

Sounds good, I'd love a sequel to Adventure of Link, similar to what they did with Megaman 9 and 10. It will never in a million years happen of course, but we can dream.
Serebii Posted April 5, 2014 Posted April 5, 2014 Only 2 player local online... Sonic racing had 5 player local online... Nintendo has locked the framerate for 1 & 2 player, and online, at 60fps. Locked 3 to 4 player at 30fps. If they were to add a fifth or have 3-5 player online, it'd cause latency issues. I'd rather a fine tuned, fluid, online experience to something that jumps all over the show like Sonic did. Besides, how often did you play that mode on Sonic?
Pestneb Posted April 5, 2014 Posted April 5, 2014 Only 2 player local online... Sonic racing had 5 player local online... To be honest, if I have 5 friends round, I'm going to be playing local multiplayer with them. I don't know if I'm unusual in this, but online is just a concession for me now that most of my friends can't regularly play locally.. Maybe Nintendo saw that few people chose the local player online mode on the Wii Version so expanding it wasn't a priority?
Serebii Posted April 5, 2014 Posted April 5, 2014 Has it been noted here that the game is confirmed to have online leaderboards?
Hero-of-Time Posted April 5, 2014 Posted April 5, 2014 Has it got voice chat? No word on that I presume? Very little about the workings of the online features has been said. Judging from the likes of Gaf and NintendoLife there are many wanting to know this ( voice chat ) as well.
Clownferret Posted April 5, 2014 Posted April 5, 2014 Has it got voice chat? No word on that I presume? It ain't gonna happen. But if by some miracle it does then the Mario Kart League will be a cocktail of profanities and funny as fuck. There's only one thing better than red shelling the guy in front and that's calling it beforehand. Much like a nutmeg in fact.
f00had Posted April 5, 2014 Posted April 5, 2014 Only 2 player local online... Sonic racing had 5 player local online... It also let the game pad player play on the screen while the everyone else played on the TV. It's a shame when Nintendo's own game uses the game pad in worse ways than a 3rd party launch title. Nintendo has locked the framerate for 1 & 2 player, and online, at 60fps. Locked 3 to 4 player at 30fps. If they were to add a fifth or have 3-5 player online, it'd cause latency issues. I'd rather a fine tuned, fluid, online experience to something that jumps all over the show like Sonic did. Besides, how often did you play that mode on Sonic? In Mario Kart Wii players who had the game in 50hz or had 2 players on one system online were restricted to 30fps and that had no issues when playing with other people running the game at 60fps. Hell Sonic Racing Transformed worked just fine online even with its unstable framerate. When I have my mates round it's fun to play online together, since we're all really good players it makes more of a challenge than racing against AI characters, sadly it won't happen with Mario Kart.
Blade Posted April 5, 2014 Posted April 5, 2014 We all got bored of being positive about the game then? It was fun while it lasted...
Serebii Posted April 5, 2014 Posted April 5, 2014 We all got bored of being positive about the game then? It was fun while it lasted... Could be worse. Someone responded to the NOA twitter last night saying it'll be a bad game because it uses bright colours, which are "incapable of conveying emotion".
