Nintendo is getting a taste of the Bat.
Last year's amazing Arkham City is now making its way to the new Wii U in the form of the Armored Edition. Along with the console's new controller, a slew of new features are making its way into the port and Nintendo is hoping fans find that this new edition is the definitive edition.
The quirky action/strategy/ant sim is back to harvest the benefits of glorious HD.
I don't know about you, but I'm more than ready to terrorize yet another ecosystem with the ferocious ant/plant-like species that, on command, can attack enemies 10x their own size, break down gates, throw bombs, and other constructive activities. Pikmin 3 literally doubles your fun with several layers of depth and scope that could only be done on Wii U.
Somebody told Nintendo never to launch a system without a Mario title. Somebody who likes coins.
Given the great succes of New Super Mario Bros. Wii, Nintendo is bringing back the franchise for the launch of their brand new Wii U system. With a healthy dose of new power-ups, New Super Mario Bros. U is set to offer more than a Mario sidescroller has ever seen before.
It’s not the size of the gun, it’s… oh wait, this is Doom we’re talking about.
I love Doom. From the moment I shot my first demon with a shotgun on an occupied Martian base in the early '90s, I was hooked. The sense of power, the satisfaction of getting a perfect shot, the click-clack of cocking that beastly boom stick yet again for another blow, all balanced with the tension of not knowing what’s around the next corner. It all came together to form an addictive stew of demon slaying madness. Doom II was basically more of the same, and after that, the franchise lay dormant for over a decade.
Just when you get into your groove, the controller powers down. Update: Pitchforks down, everyone: it charges while you play.
After catching a glimpse of the Wii U's potential at Nintendo’s conference, some of the excitement is tempered by the raw facts on battery life. According to official figures from Nintendo, the Wii U Gamepad will only last for 3-5 hours on battery charge. Since most of its functionality shown at E3 involves players moving it in multiple directions and around the room, it may be tough to charge and play with the controller at the same time.
