'Concept Grand Prix' - Nintendo's new Gran Turismo/Forza clone for Wii U

http://blazingstargames.com/2012/04/11/rumour-nintendo-working-on-a-simulation-racer-for-wii-u/

Supposedly this is Nintendo's "Gran Turismo/Forza racing sim".

In before Nintendo fanboys have no problem whatsoever with this, yet cry over everything Sony (or MS) does :roll:

Sheep, are you guys ok with this? Are you going to buy it? Will you support a game that is a blatant "rippoff" of Gran Turismo and Forza?

Oh, its just competition? Well why wasnt it just competition when Sony makes a game to compete with Mario Kart (which theyve done before, Crash Team Racing) and Smash Bros? Why do you guys complain so much, then turn a blind eye to Nintendo doing the EXACT same thing you cried about in the first place? :?

OMG NINTENDO IS MAKING A NEW IP

1) Old news.

2) Meh.

3) Sony and Microsoft didn't invent the broracing genre, genius.

Might this be a new F-Zero?

And even if it is like Gran Turismo/Forza I won't have a problem with it.

But I would prefer a new F-Zero.

Sony and Microsoft didn't invent the broracing genre, genius. LordQuorthon

Gran Turismo officially dead.

Poor cows. Nintendo will be putting the final nail in Sony's coffin.

Also Godza will run over this like it did Gran Tragismo.

Actually I think this is the perfect normal game to demo the controller.

id rather have f-zero but ill take it if i can use mario to drive :)

Yeah ! Another Nintendo exclusive where you can't die no matter what you doSTARTNPLAY1

Project Cars would suffice, I see no point in this. I think the majority of Nintendo gamers want a new F-Zero instead of this too.

What are you talking about? :?

I don't see the point. Nintendo already has the best racing game with Mario Kart, not to mention tons of other racing games that they could just reboot instead. I'd much rather the development team make something different than something we already get tons of.

1) Old news.

2) Meh.

Gran Turismo broracing? Wut? I think you mean NFS Underground and the like ;)

hate sim racing but whatever. TC no sheep is beefing with you why you jelly?

Yea because Sony and MS created the racing sim.......Nintendo did however create motion controllers and almost every butoon on modern controllers....kthx bye.

Polyphony copied the original Need For Speed (which in turn copied Test Drive 2).

That was only one game on the Wii that did that.

Sim racers are really boring to me.Sure,they may have tons of customization,but the racing lacks excitement.

No I have no problem with it. Will I buy it? I doubt it. But then again we hardly know anything about this game, for all we know it doesn't even exist.

If you werent such a dillusional Nintendo fanboy you would realize that Nintendo didnt do ANY of what you said. Sony however, DID create the DRIVING SIMULATOR genre. Not arcade racers, I.E. Need for speed, dirt, blur, burnout, etc...

And Nintendo created motion controll, and every button on the modern controller? So thats why every modern controller for the past 14 years is DIRECTLY based off of the 10 button DUAL ANALOG layout pioneered by the Dualshock on PSone ;). You know, the same layout that both Microsoft AND Nintendo copied, and that Nintendo is returning to with the Wii U?

What about Dual shoulder buttons, L2/R2 (which gamecube didnt have) L3/R3 (which gamecube also didnt have). And please dont say Nintendo invented the analog stick. Sony DID invent dual analog however. ;)

Also, Motion control has been around since the PSone days. There are PC controllers with it as well since like 97. Wii mote wasnt the first motion controller.

Like I said, typical Nintendo fanboy who thinks Nintendo invented gaming. What else are you going to say, Nintendo invented the D pad?

They don't have anything else to buy.. ofcourse they'll buy it. Best way to get a game to sell is to sell it at the start of a new system.. people will have no choice but to get it.

You're joking about Sony creating racing simulator genre, right? Here is Hard Driving, a racing simulator from 1988:

http://www.youtube.com/watch?v=g6JC-HCNcio

DualShock is a combination of the SNES gamepad (button layout, shoulder buttons) and N64 gamepad (analog sticks, rumble). It was a successful design but it was clearly made after Nintendo gamepads.

N64 was the console to make analog sticks popular.

Also Sega had motion controlls before Sony did.

And yes, D-pad is Nintendo's invention! :x

There is a difference between trying to cash in on a genre by copying a well-known series, as with the Kart Racing genre (notice every kart racer after Super Mario Kart uses the same basic format: Driving down a crazy track using items to either help you or take out other characters. If Nintendo never made Mario Kart, I seriously doubt any other company would have) and doing a genre everyone has a hand in, like racing sims. I mean you have Lucid, Midway, Forza, Turn 10, EA, etc. who have all created well-known series in the genre, each with their own style of racing. This isn't a genre where a single company owns a monopoly, like Nintendo with Kart Racing, Sony with action/adventure games, or Blizzard with MMOs, this is a genre where there is no clear owner. Everyone can take part, and everyone does, and they are all awesome.

Now if Nintendo tries to create a CoD style shooter in the future, I think even the most hardcore sheep will be saying they are just trying to cash in on CoDs fame.

2) Meh.

This, and Project CARS is comming to Wii-U anyway. I call BS on this rumor.

Sorry, but you have NO CLUE about racing simulators. The genre did NOT start with Gran Turismo at all. Go back to driving school :P

[QUOTE="StrongDeadlift"][QUOTE="Androvinus"]Nintendo created motion controls and buttons ???? What is this ?:lol:bonesawisready5

Microsoft changed the layout and build of the Xbox controller not once, but TWICE, to make it identical (in format) to the Dualshock. The Xbox360 controller PERFECTLY mirrors the PSone controller 1:1. (the Dualshock 1 didnt have pressure sensitive buttons, neither does the 360).

Nintendo changed their layout (from arguably the WORST button layout of all time) on the N64, to make it more similar to the Dualshock 1 (I wonder why they did this :roll: ) but it still had only 6 buttons. Some multiplats on the Gamecube actually had entirely different versions than the PS2/Xbox versions due to this. (that, and Nintendo using mini dvd).

They are also returning from the Wii mote (the remote which yet again, due to its limited button layout, caused it to lose nearly ALL third party support, and limit the way games can be made for the system. The Wii mote is the reason Wii doesnt get multiplats. Which is also why they are returning to a Dual Analog layout for the Wii U (again, I wonder why they are doing this :roll: )

Nintendo has been the most behind the curve company in this reguard for the last 2 decades. Modern gaming is designed for the Dualshock.

StrongDeadlift

WRONG. You must had started gaming this gen :lol:

Every modern controller to this day has it's "DNA" based after the SNES' face button layout.

SNES controller has Four symetrical ABXY Diamond Pattern on the right side, and 2 symetrical Shoulder buttons, L and R on the Top Left and Right side of the controllers. Select and Start are on the Middle and the D-Pad on the left side of the controller.

PS1-PS3 & XBOX-XB360 controllers are modelled after this basic symetrical facebutton design. Triggers on the original XBOX and 360 are modelled after the Dreamcasts controller. And the Analog Stick found on both current HD consoles are based on N64's.

Hopefully it has interesting tracks. I havn't bought GT5 because the tracks look really boring.

[QUOTE="bonesawisready5"][QUOTE="StrongDeadlift"] Hory chet Nintendo fanboys are becoming the new Sony drones :lol: Its ironic because the modern controller is actually modeled EXACTLY after the DualShock 3's 10 button controller design.

How the hell are you comming up with these things?

The 360 gamepad is by no means a DualShock copy. It has different (better) analog stick positions, different triggers, ect. It's arguably the better gamepad design.

The GC pad didn't copy DualShock, it was the natural evolution of the N64 pad. Also N64 pad was very ergonomical (as was GC's).

And do explain why Sony copied the Wii Mote if it was such a terrible controller?

And I like it how you completely overlooked the touch screen Wii U will have. No evolution at all? Watch Sony and MS copy it in a matter of time :P

And before that was a little game called "Pole Position" made in 1982 by Namco. That's the true beginnings of sim racing.

DualShock is the most established but hardly the best controller design out there. The analog stick position on it is terrible for example.

WiiCubeM1

Modern control schemes are based on the dual analog set-up that was made industry standard by Sony.

That was in itself derivative of early control systems by Nintendo and the like.

Everything being ultimately derivative to the inventions of Ralph H Baer. Who probably drew inspiration from other sources before him.

You mean it's easily the best and most comfortable there is. Far better than what Microsoft offered, since Nintendo has the CCP.
