Gaming Rodea the Sky Soldier Wii U thread

[shinkodachi]

Sweet I like on rail shooters. Will pick up the Wii U version. Personally I couldn't give a flying fuck about the Wii version.

I see what you did there.

Looks promising,I'll just wait for some Japanese bro to upload the Wii version so I can play it like the devs really wanted.

I would like the Wii U version as well, but I would have liked to see what the original was all about.

I too received the notification from Amazon of delayed release! I think OP should be updated, here is the news: http://www.nintendolife.com/news/20...e_sky_soldier_release_pushed_back_to_november

He doesn't visit the forum any more.

It's a damn shame that they're not releasing the Wii version separately because it's a whole lot better than the shitty Wii U port (which was based on the 3DS version).



I suppose in time it'll pop up on eBay for cheap as Wii U gamers won't want the Wii disc.

Depends I kind like how the wiiu one looks alot better than the Wii does but I in general don't like the Wii so that could be why.

The 3DS/WiiU looks all dark, dull and its gameplay was changed due to the lack of motion controls. And all the colourful visuals and details are gonr.

That's what I like about it but I see why you like the visual aspects of the Wii version tho

The Wii U version really does just look like ass. If you like darker colors, I get that, but there is no way you can like the lifeless, flat textures more. I mean, the Wii U version looks like what it came from, a 3DS game. If they were comparing Wii to 3DS, the comparison would have been totally acceptable. Hell, I may have been a little impressed. Instead I'm wondering what kind of development hell the game went through for the Wii U version to have been so visually gimped. The Wii version just looks like it plays better too with faster, more involved gameplay.

Basically, it looks like they tried for the Wii version, and phoned it in when it took so long that the Wii U was the viable choice for release.

I'm only in for the Wii version. Shame that the Wii U version is ass.

Got the game recently to be certain I'd own the Wii version but firstly I tried out the Wii U edition, and well, it's as bad as critics/reviewers say it is. Controls feel extremely uncomfortable, clunky and unnatural and the visuals just look so lifeless without any colour to them (other than brown and the likes) as the Wii version has. The "good" thing about it is that it's playable with the GamePad, Wii U Pro Controller, Wiimote + Nunchuck and Wiimote + CCP but since it feels so awkward you're ultimately going to give up playing the damn thing. Turning an onrail shooter into a 3D platformer just doesn't work properly and this is proof of it.

I really don't recommend anyone to play the Wii U version but if you want the Wii version then you're stick buying the Wii U edition. Mind you it comes with a reversible cover so it's not all bad.

I was just on Metacritic and wow these reviews are bad. I'm glad I've held off buying this.

Not surprised. They played the Wii U version which is atrociously bad.

Even Naka, the game creator, acknowledges that.
The Wii version is the game as intended.

Good to know Mr. Naka acknowledges it too rather than lie about it (so to get Wii U copies sold in the west). But you know, there's actually people who enjoy the Wii U version, said people are on Miiverse.

I suppose people out there find enjoyment in terrible games but I'd just prefer to avoid them.

 

[keven3477]

But is the regular wii version good though? I want to know since I am interested in it.

It is. In fact it's the only reason anyone should bother buying it.

 

[Captain_N]

A fellow user at Metacritic seemed very upset because of all the negative reviews the game was getting so to make up for that frustration he posted a review and called everyone 'ignorant' twice. Can't reason with fanboys.
