Its because the Wii's tacked on motion controls were really not very good. Having to shake the remote to swing the sword got old really fast.
You also dont have the C stick to easily control the camera.

The game was originally designed for the Gamecube. The normal button controls are so much better.


The intro is the same.

That would require Jared to be able to easily obtain a copy of the GameCube version.

The Gamecube version is so much better. I feel like people will only now be experiencing TP for what it really is.

Just finished listening to the episode. I was pleasantly surprised to hear my Chibi Robo / Yoshi email read out on the show.

Nintendo have done an amazing job at the video streaming between the Wii U and gamepad.
My brother has a cheap TV that doesnt appear to have a game mode. The TV has noticeably more lag than the gamepad.

I was able to change a few settings on the TV to improve it, but it was still bad

When I read the headline, I first thought that some sort of Mario Kart and Sonic Drift or Sonic R hybrid game called "Mario and Sonic Racing" had just been announced.

So did I, now Im disappointed.

Mario Kart X Sonic Racing Transformed could be good.

I liked the demo they released at E3. But Im not sure I liked it enough to buy the full game.

Bayonetta is a great addition to the game. But I dont even play Smash, so I cant complain about any of the other stuff.

Lots of games, but I dont see anything worth buying, except for maybe Phoenix Wright.

Not exactly the big news I was hoping for, but still pretty big news. Although not terribly surprising after the game was up on that European rating board just before the last Direct.

Im in Australia, I wonder if Europe and America will also get it in March.

If its anything like the New 3DS, we might be the first to get it outside of Japan.

I put about 50 hours into the 3DS Xenoblade and enjoyed it a lot.

Im looking forward to getting this new game, but it will have to wait for a month or two before I buy it.

I played through the Halo 5 campaign on easy (yeah, Im one of those gamers) and I didnt find the AI team mates to be a problem at all.

But now that I think about it a bit more, maybe I was doing all the work without noticing.
There was only one time when they failed to revive me.

Twilight Princess is my second favourite Zelda (Wind Waker is favourite), so Im very happy with the remake, especially if it is based on the far superior Gamecube version.

I wish they could have made the faces look less weird in this game. The rest of the game looks amazing.

Its nice that they have been added to VC, but I didnt like them very much.

Phantom hourglass was ruined by that annoying temple you had to return to all the time.
I never really got into Spirit Tracks. I cant remember why.

Go play Minish Cap instead.

Im guessing it will mostly be updates of games shown at E3. Mostly Star Fox, Xenoblade, Paper Jam and Federation Force.

Probably also the Smash ballot stuff. Maybe one or two surprises.
Im just hoping for Twilight Princess HD.
