OP - You're a dumbass with the reading comprehension skills of a second grader.


Can someone tell me what's wrong with these two, this made me LOL hard.

I don't think I'd want to use my body to play a video game to be honest.

Case and point: don't worry about it. Girls start getting boobies pretty soon, and then you'll have plenty of other things to think about. Being an Inheritor is not a life goal.

I know about the Wii U, and I honestly don't think that bungie would open right up to nintendo. The dominant gaming market is hardcore games, and Nintendo is freshly stepping into that market. I doubt Bungie would want to throw money into a game for the Wii U immediately. If I were them I'd wait and see how other games do on it, and see if the Wii U will be dominated by the Playstation and Xbox, or if it will actually rise up and challenge the Playstation and Xbox.

Nononononono. I hope not. I really hope not.

Besides Nitendo's age old franchises (Zelda, Mario, etc.) I wouldn't play any games on any form of the Wii.

You clearly have not experienced the wonder that is Wii Sports' Tennis.

Only if they don't mind downgrading the graphics to an unimaginable degree, cutting about 50% of the content from that version of the game, and crippling whatever online multiplayer functionality it may have.

EDIT: ...and modifying it to use the derpiest controller design I've seen since, well, the Wii.

Mourne not your comrades who must dwell / too strong to strive -
Within each steel-bound coffin of a cell, / Buried alive;
But rather mourne the apathetic throng / The cowed, and the meek -
Who see the world’s great anguish and its wrong / And dare not speak.

I think porting a title to the WiiU misses the point of the system, and runs the risk of exposing customers to your company in a bad way. The games that will be most successful on the WiiU will probably have been designed for it, in the same way that the best Wii games were designed for that system.

That's not to say that Bungie won't think about making something for the system, though.

Right now there's no reason to even think about doing it though, since there's no userbase. If the system comes out and sells a bunch of units, we might see something happen but I still doubt it. Bungie has a huge focus on online multiplayer and Nintendo still hasn't shown an ability to create a working online system.

In a time long past, the armies of the dark came again to the lands of men. Their leaders became known as the fallen lords, and their terrible sorcery was without equal in the west.
In 30 years they reduced the civilized nations into carrion and ash. Until the free city of Madrigal alone defined them. An army gathered there, and a desperate battle was joined against the fallen
Heros were born in the fire and bloodshed of the wars which followed and their names and deeds will never be forgotten

The biggest problem with this is Nintendo's strict screening process for games on their systems.

I wear the cheese, it does not wear me.

This account is now retired due to WLID changing. Webteam needs to fix that, seriously >.>

I hope so. Wii U may very well become my go-to-console for multiformat games if the online is done right. And whether the screen in the controller is utilized well or just used to clean up some UI clutter on the TV that will be a nice bonus feature for Wii U versions.

And of course Nintendo needs moar mature gaems coz every1 noes dey only have babby gaems and dats all dats impoteant. Lovely bliss is lovely.

I remember when I used this space to put cool looking links to my chapters back in the day. I don't even know why I'm using it now. Why are you even reading this? You must be interested in me. Still reading?

I always wondered what it would be like to play Halo on the Wii. Beatin' down grunts with mah nunchuck.

. . . The dominant gaming market is hardcore games . . .
Wow, definitely not! Casual games are the biggest market by far, in part due to the availability on every little electronic device everyone carries with them any more.

But no, I don't think Bungie will be going Wii. The 360 and PS3 are a fair bit more similar to each other than the Wii/WiiU is to either of the other two, so that'd be easier and the audiences are more similar. Plus, they haven't been posting job openings for the Wii.

I don't think their next game will be on the WiiU, but the game after that I certainly think so, although there's always the possibility.

The wii u's graphics are still worse than that of the current next gen consoles. They're closer to what they should be and yet not entirely there. I don't know what he's talking about with the losing of lots of the game, I'm pretty sure that wouldn't be necessary. But he has a point that the multiplayer would be next to nonexistent or at the very least, pants on head retarded. And his edit makes sense too, considering I don't want to use either the wiimote nor that bigass ipad thing to control the next Bungie game.

Get over your selves and think of the big picture. Wii U is supposed to appeal, in a small way, to hardcore gamers. It's possible. And having a hardcore game in a family friendly market is a way to control a niche. Sounds like easy money to me.

It is possible to commit no errors and still lose. That is not a weakness. That is life.

Posted by: chickenlittle
Cheeto is the only one among you that doesn't suck.

I would agree, but most "hardcore" gamers don't have a wii. Having a hardcore game on a platform where there are no hardcore gamers seems like a waste of time and effort to me.

And while it would be nice for Bungie to develop one for the wii, they would be swallowed up by all the family games and gamers of the wii.

The 360 and PS3 are much better suited to the kinds of games we assume bungie wants to make. The wii is not, and likely never will be, wii u or not.

Oh dear I hope not.

It seems to be Xbox 360 and PS3 at this stage, and maybe PC. Judging by the jobs page.
