lol another peripheral

While Sony and MS are trying their hardest to get devs to make games for their console, Nintendo is again releasing a new peripheral instead. It's been like this since the Wii launched and it shows within its game library compared to the other two consoles.

Remember last gen when peripherals were a complete joke and nobody bought into them? How times have changed. Now to play the Wii the way it's meant to be played you have to buy the Wiimote, the Nunchuck and this? lol milkage

But but but it comes with a game! Yeah we've all seen what kind of games come with Nintendo's new philosophy.

N Gai Croal was right when he said that the Wii's success wasn't game based but rather peripheral based.

No thanks Nintendo. I'll enjoy the upcoming games from the other companies instead.DireToad

OMG you are so right. I bet Sony would never release peripherals. The eyetoy and Dualshock 3 were lies fabricated by the liberal media

I think this might come bundles with The Conduit if Nintendo decides to publish it.

Your so much of a Nintendo fanboy nothing you say about Nintendo can be taken seriously. Every new game is "the best you have ever played" as long as it has NINTENDO on the box. No criticism. Just blind loyalty.

Mario Kart Wii vastly outscored Mario Kart 64 and Mario Kart Double Dash. So what's so hard about him saying its his favorite Mario Kart?

Because it takes away so many of the things that makes mario kart fun and doesn't take away the crap people hate like blue shells.The entire framework of the game has been NOOBifide.

[QUOTE="samusarmada"]Will the nunchuck still be attachable?lancea34

It seems so. If you look at the picture, the Motion Plus has some kind of opening at the end.

hm...what i want to know how much it will cost? wiimote (about 40 bucks) + nunchuck (about 20 bucks) + motionplus (???) = ???

probably 80 bucks for a full fledged controller? seems like this gets out of hand...although if it's true, they fixed one of my hardest complaints about the wii.

really? is that why Guitar Hero was a million-seller? makes sense... :roll:




Yeah except that with Guitar Hero you can use the same controller for all their games on one console. And the controller's actually worth it because it's a guitar game.

so you cant use the Wii-wheel for any other racing games except mario kart?

plus this 1:1 motion thingy will enhance the motion sensing for EVERY game...

I'd hardly call it milkage. Bringing out a Wiimote with the new tech would've been. E3 hasn't begun and the haters have already got the knives out. LOL @ fanboys.

The Wii has as many controllers and controllers add ons as it has AAAs.

Even more pathetic is the fact that Nintendo pretty much encouraged their fanbase to use a last gen controller for one of those AAAs.

Dammit. Sony did this to me with rumble, now this with Ninty. Ok, MS, toss me some add-on that should have been included free from the start...

*looks at XBL*

Nooooo!!!

vicmackey39

Different situation. This doesn't make your old remote redundant and it most likely will come with some sort of a game. Seriously man, the possibilities with this are endless. E3 is going to be amazing this year

If they charge me for this, and games utilize it without coming with it as a pack in, its milkage, just like rumble is, and just like XBL is.

I am sure I will buy it, but man, I am tired of buying crap that should have been available at launch, made to work better before it came out, or should have been available on the disc.

And yet all you need is the standard Wii Mote and Nunchuk that comes with the system to play every game practically. Only one game (Wii Fit) requires a balance board. The others like the Zapper and Wii Wheel don't require you to use them at all during game. You can play Mario Kart with the Wii mote on it's side and use it's motion controls still, or you can play any "Zapper" supported game with the Wii mote and Nunchuck. :|

Yeah, and for having vibration (something standard since 8 years ago) you gotta buy an entire new controller. No cow got problems with that.

So, what the problem with paying more (maybe not much more) for improving a really innovative feature?

Bread_or_Decide

I literally disagreed with everything you wrote there. The Wii Wheel works great, and it's one of the best Mario Kart games I have ever played. And I have every single one of them (except the arcade ones).

Wrong.

I am not as loyal to Nintendo as you think. I just like Diddy Kong. I said it's ONE of the best MARIO KART games I have ever played. An abomination, right? I critisize Nintendo a lot. You think $250 is cheap? IT'S EXPENSIVE, and I critisized Nintendo for doing that. Zelda: Phantom Hourglass? The worst Zelda game I have played. I don't follow a company blindly, I pay attention to it's strenghts and weaknesses and I choose what console I buy for that.

Because it takes away so many of the things that makes mario kart fun and doesn't take away the crap people hate like blue shells.The entire framework of the game has been NOOBifide.

In your opinion.

I like the more added racers, and the Blue Shell has never been a problem for me since day one in the N64 game. Yeah if you're way ahead and you get hit, you cans scream and shout like a toddler, but seriously it's just the name of the game. Items are a random variable in the game, you can't really consider a game like Mario Kart to be about your driving skills alone. You need to consider items, and frankly it's been that way since the SNES games and up.

Red shells can be a pain in the ass to anyone, Green shells take skills to shoot, Bananans strategize to lay up and not run over, but in the end, they are variables that will always be decided by luck, since where you place and where you are in the race currently, you get a random chance of any item. (Yet your placement makes a chance of somethiing better usually appearing.)

If you don't like the Blu shell, how have you played Mario Kart all these years? I don't get people who whine about the blue shell...

yoshi_64

And it's been known you never have anything positive to say about Nintendo and always kiss the floor Sony walks on. Turning anything negative into a positive, and anything remotely good for Nintendo into a lame crack at something poor in your opinion or unrelated.

Why take what you say anymore serious? You are no better, so don't act like it.

Um no. I speak bluntly about all the consoles. Pro's and con's. I was not happy that Sony took forever to release the Dual Shock 3 and on top of that I never bought for a second that rumble was "last gen". I criticize each console and give credit when it's due. I know that enrages fanboys and it always has people accusing me of being a fanboy for one console or the other which is funny cause in the end they are all just entertainment machines to me. I have no attachment to these lifeless machines or heartless corporations. At least I am objective. That is something you can't say about Mr. Diddy Kong up there.

Let me see you try that this E3, cause you've already been praising Sony, have been in the past, of owning each year and I know you'll sing the same tune AGAIN when their E3 conference ends.

If I see otherwise, I'll retract my statements, but you've always been the one to kiss Sony's lips. I've yet to see you be so critical, and even when something like DS 3 came out you still praised the controller if I wasn't mistaken, being like "the best" because it has motion and rumble and still is the standard pad if I wasn't mistaken.

I was happy to get rumble back and made a point that it was about damn time. Praising Sony? I said the Killzone clip looks cool. So far what have I been "praising"? Theirs nothing to praise as of yet. Yeah last year I gave nIntendo alot of sh*t when their big reveal was WiiFit. Sorry I can't pretend to be excited about garbage like that. Maybe if I were a 40 year old soccer mom I would. But I'm not, so I don't. I'm honest. Period. Think what you will. Its not my fault Nintendo doesn't do enough to be praised. Go tell them to stop catering to mainstream sheep and really innovate instead of unloading a million useless peripherals.

Heh an interesting idea but its an addon and all addons are dangerous. If Nintendo starts giving these out for free like with the Wii condoms, bundling them with every wiimote sold, and every Wii sold, not to mention with games like they did with n64 starfox, Donkey Kong 64 ect. Then it could be more of an impact.

But Addons are always dangerous.

rofl his point flew so far over you head.

Basically, he was saying that nintendo encouraged the fanbase to use a gc controller for Brawl because the wiimote is simply inadequate. which is pathetic. You make a new "innovative" controller and your best game is better played on gamecube controllers. wat a pos.

[QUOTE="IronBass"][QUOTE="ogvampire"]

[QUOTE="darklord888"]So something that should have been there from the start and will probably cost a ton.

Wow thanks Nintendo.JPOBS

kidding right? does it even look close to expensive? :|

Yeah, and for having vibration (something standard since 8 years ago) you gotta buy an entire new controller. No cow got problems with that.

So, what the problem with paying more (maybe not much more) for improving a really innovative feature?

because the rumble isnt really necessary you could play without it.

one could argue that this isnt necessary either, but if its as good as it seems to

[QUOTE="DireToad"][QUOTE="Bread_or_Decide"]

[QUOTE="DireToad"]lol another peripheral

While Sony and MS are trying their hardest to get devs to make games for their console, Nintendo is again releasing a new peripheral instead. It's been like this since the Wii launched and it shows within its game library compared to the other two consoles.

Remember last gen when peripherals were a complete joke and nobody bought into them? How times have changed. Now to play the Wii the way it's meant to be played you have to buy the Wiimote, the Nunchuck and this? lol milkage

But but but it comes with a game! Yeah we've all seen what kind of games come with Nintendo's new philosophy.

N Gai Croal was right when he said that the Wii's success wasn't game based but rather peripheral based.

No thanks Nintendo. I'll enjoy the upcoming games from the other companies instead.ogvampire

Wiimote

Wiimote Nunchuk

Wii Board

Wii Wheel

Wii C-Controller

Wii Zapper

.....I'm glad some of us can see how ridiculous this is getting. Although I don't consider this new attachment a peripheral like the others. Its tiny and attaches to the back. Harmless really....as long as it comes free with a game that's worth getting. Maybe Kid Icarus.




The Wii has as many controllers and controllers add ons as it has AAAs.

Even more pathetic is the fact that Nintendo pretty much encouraged their fanbase to use a last gen controller for one of those AAAs.

Dualshock says hello. its pretty much exactly like Dualshock 2, except for the motion sensing where 90% of ps3 games dont use anyway...

ps3 is pretty much using a last gen controller.... hasnt this become apparent to you?

rofl his point flew so far over you head.

Basically, he was saying that nintendo encouraged the fanbase to use a gc controller for Brawl because the wiimote is simply inadequate. which is pathetic. You make a new "innovative" controller and your best game is better played on gamecube controllers. wat a pos.

your kidding right? Nintendo gave you the OPTION to use the GC controller, not encouraged. i use the wiimote-nunchuk combo instead of the GC controller... your point = fail

Heh an interesting idea but its an addon and all addons are dangerous. If Nintendo starts giving these out for free like with the Wii condoms, bundling them with every wiimote sold, and every Wii sold, not to mention with games like they did with n64 starfox, Donkey Kong 64 ect. Then it could be more of an impact.

But Addons are always dangerous.

Blackbond

That's true but I don't see them bundling the MotionPlus with the Wiimote's.

I also don't see them giving the MotionPlus like they did with the Wii 'condoms' :P.

Why is the Wiimote inadequate for Brawl? It's the only one I use to play the game.

Great move.

With Sony & Microsoft both unveiling their motion sensing controller, this was needed unless Nintendo wanted to get beat at their own game.

Now the question is, how will they deliver that new accessorie. The best thing imo would be to bundle this with Wii Sports 2. Hopefully they will also start making this standard by offering it with the console as soon as possible. I really hope they have a good amount of games to show tomorrow taking advantage of this.

[QUOTE="DireToad"][QUOTE="Willy105"][QUOTE="Bread_or_Decide"][QUOTE="Willy105"][QUOTE="Bread_or_Decide"]

I have no respect for anyone that uses that Wheel. Its a joke. A really bad joke. Yes its horrid. Its uncessary and doesn't work better than a wiimote nunchuck set up. Not to mention it comes with the worst mario kart in years.

Willy105

I literally disagreed with everything you wrote there. The Wii Wheel works great, and it's one of the best Mario Kart games I have ever played. And I have every single one of them (except the arcade ones).

Your so much of a Nintendo fanboy nothing you say about Nintendo can be taken seriously. Every new game is "the best you have ever played" as long as it has NINTENDO on the box. No criticism. Just blind loyalty.

Wrong.

I am not as loyal to Nintendo as you think. I just like Diddy Kong. I said it's ONE of the best MARIO KART games I have ever played. An abomination, right? I critisize Nintendo a lot. You think $250 is cheap? IT'S EXPENSIVE, and I critisized Nintendo for doing that. Zelda: Phantom Hourglass? The worst Zelda game I have played. I don't follow a company blindly, I pay attention to it's strenghts and weaknesses and I choose what console I buy for that.




Honestly let's be honest here. Just look at your game collection.

Ok. What about it?



There's one Playstation game and two PC games and all the rest is Nintendo.

I use the c lassic controller though the Nunchuck and Wiimote combo is great too.

People only say the GC control set up is the best because their already so used to it and unwilling to try something new -- like many lems and cows

Ok you little girls. How about arguing Nintendos marketing and use of peripherals, we wait till tomorrow when they show and explain the damn thing. You guys cant even wait 24 hours before you start up arguments that have no end. The fact of the matter is Nintendo has not made you buy one single peripheral since launch. If anything was every mandatory it came packed in with the game that demanded it. I'm sure this will be included with Wii controllers from now on if its so important.

As for the whole Wii Wheel argument. The purpose of the Wheel was to make the game more user friendly to the casual and new market they aim for. PLAIN AND SIMPLE.

They had better announce at least 3 solid titles at E3 that make use of this, and I don't mean another fitness gimmick. My faith in Nintendo is slowly dying.

another accessory? come on nintendo, this is just getting out of hand. if you're going to do something like this update the wii-mote instead of releasing an accessory. then again your strategy is to rip off your customers as much as you possibly can.

I was happy to get rumble back and made a point that it was about damn time. Praising Sony? I said the Killzone clip looks cool. So far what have I been "praising"? Theirs nothing to praise as of yet. Yeah last year I gave nIntendo alot of sh*t when their big reveal was WiiFit. Sorry I can't pretend to be excited about garbage like that. Maybe if I were a 40 year old soccer mom I would. But I'm not, so I don't. I'm honest. Period. Think what you will. Its not my fault Nintendo doesn't do enough to be praised. Go tell them to stop catering to mainstream sheep and really innovate instead of unloading a million useless peripherals.

Bread_or_Decide

It isn't a matter of praising, you hardly if ever (from what I see, and I see you around a lot) give anything positive to say towards them or a "looks cool" comment should I say.

Not that it matters to me, your personal feelings and opinions, but you stray from the point. It's not about praising any one company, don't act like you are better than someone. Your lash at Willy is unncessary, and totally hypocritical. You cannot accept someone's point of view, than deal with it. Just don't go out saying one's point of view has no relevance or weight on the matter at hand, because you sir have no reason to act any better than someone, and your comment implies that you feel you are somehow able to pass off this judgment because you have some kind of authority to give off this rule statement.

Thanks for avoiding the topic.

lol. Do you know anything about smash bros or are you jsut a casual fan?

its not preference. the gc controller is better for competitive play, where precision matters. Point is, wiimote is not the optimal way to play.

That would make me respect Nintendo all the more, and I would be more likely to support games that use this.

Its a great feature, but I am not looking to spend more money on accessories. This gen has enough spending on things that are not games already.

If they update the Wiimote, then all the Wiimotes out there will be useless. That will be milkage and a rip-off.

An add-on means all Wiimotes can use it.

Or it could be he doesn't update his profile enough? I haven't checked the list, but I know I don't even have my catalog updated on GS... I have sooooooo many titles that need to be added on, and I hardly even do... if ever.
