QUOTE (BFirebird @ Mar 15, 2013 -> 01:38 PM) It is scary that we are all optimistic.....I am now feeling less optimistic. I had chosen 85-88, but I think they could hit 90 if healthy. I think they will keep it close and maybe snag a WC spot. It is still a very young thread...... -
QUOTE (Chicago White Sox @ Mar 15, 2013 -> 12:48 PM) Right now, the new 3D Mario platformer and Mario Kart game will make or break them IMO. They can't just be rehashes like 2D Mario sequels become. They need new and unique features that blow people away, sort of like Mario Galaxy did when it first came out. The problem is that those games probably won't come out until the fall or holidays. At that point the Xbox 720 & PS4 will be right around the corner and you'll have a hard time convincing people to buy a Wii U. They need some big games soon and I just don't see them. The games you mentioned may all be solid, but I don't expect any of them to big sellers or move systems. Hopefully they have surprises at E3, because god only knows that all their studios are working on. Retro Studios in particular better have a big announcement. Really though, how many times has this been said about Nintendo? They just keep plugging along, making sales. I make no excuses, I love Nintendo games. I grew up on Mario, Zelda, Metroid. Those are the games I want to play, I appreciate them, all iterations(except maybe Metroid Other M). I said a few months ago, I think Nintendo and Sony and XBox are all kind of doing their own thing anymore. They compete with each other, but Nintendo just does not give a s*** about what those two do, for good or bad. Another game just announced is that Pokemon Rumble WiiU game, that makes use of figurines like Skylanders, except you dont have to get that little pad to set them on, they make use of the NFC connection in the gamepad. Pokemon usually is a big win for Nintendo, they do very well with those games. But the there is no way around it, this launch has been extremely dissapointing in the game department.

QUOTE (Chicago White Sox @ Mar 15, 2013 -> 06:45 AM) Anyone else think the Wii U is doomed? I just can't believe how much Nintendo has botched this console. You think Nintendo would have learned their lesson from the 3DS launch, but there have literally been no games worth purchasing since launch. There is still no killer app that demonstrates what the system is truly capable of (Nintendoland doesn't count IMO). Plus they don't even have the virtual console up yet to keep people until some good games out. What's going to happen when two truly next-gen systems come out later year? Nintendo needed to build a large ussr base beforehand, but without any big games on the horizon, they're going to be in big trouble come Christmas. People aren't buying the console for Pikman. Without Mario, Metriod, & Zelda games soon, this is going to go under, especially with 3rd party support lacking once again. I've been a huge Nintendo fan my whole life, but they proven with Wii U that they're never going to change. Key modern day features like online play and easy backup/transfer of digital purchases lack behind their competitors. I mean for f***'s sake, they're still stressing local multiplayer, which may be great for families but few other people care. I tried playing Super Mario Wii U with my wife when I first got the console and you can't even use the Gamepad with two people, you both have to use Wiimotes because the Gamepad is reserved for a player who wants to build platforms for the others. To drop $400 on a system and games and not be able to use the main selling point for normal gameplay is just f***ing stupid. Nintendo just doesn't get it. Im pissed at the lack of games for sure, but I never will count Nintendo out. For all of the talk about the superiority of Xbox and PS3, the Wii dominated the last console generation in sales. Mario(Solo and Kart) are coming out within the next few months, the HD Windwaker is coming out in August, Pikmin 3(which Miyamoto said should have been a launch game) comes out in May. And another game I have been waiting for is also coming out in May, Wonderful 101. IGN just gave Lego City Undercover an 8.0. There is a lot of things that Nintendo just doesnt care about, there is no doubt about it. They just do things the way they want to do them and say f*** it.

QUOTE (buhbuhburrrrlz @ Mar 14, 2013 -> 07:23 PM) They rebooted it to Sports Talk Live! It's funny after the reboot guests would come on and say Gratz on the new show Kap! lol I guess they're trying to have more regulars, not that the old format didn't have regulars. Telander and Morrissey seem to always be booked on Mondays. They had Tim Doyle on recently and he accused Michael Jordan, Karl Malone, and Barkley all of being on steroids. I've never seen a panel get so silent, nobody wanted to touch that comment with a 10 foot pole. The funny thing was he wouldn't give up on it, and ended repeating it as everybody sat around stone faced. I think the difference is it isn't only trib guests

QUOTE (southsider2k5 @ Mar 14, 2013 -> 11:13 AM) I absolutely loved that moving until the end. The last 15-20 minutes just sucked. The scene at the bar is one of the greatest comedy scenes of all time. Yea, when Jason Lee looks around and sees all of the women together and making out and it clicks for him what is going on, that is a really funny scene. Until recently I didnt know that the woman that was Joey Lauren Adams girlfriend in that part ended up being Jason Lees wife.
