I'd love to shit on the Wii-U some more, but this is some epic nitpicking. The fact that Yakuza 1+2 are coming to the Wii-U should be enough. As long as it looks nice (it does), and it plays well (wait and see) - there shouldn't be a huge issue.

People with a PS3, grab it on that. Wii-U only? Well, now you get to play…

Pro tip: There are *only* negative Wii-U stories.

One thing I never understood was the 360's failure in Japan. Is the failure of the 360 down to the perceived lack of established RPG franchises on the platform? I know we had Enchanted Arms, Lost Odyssey, Resonance of Fate and Blue Dragon who tried to establish a foundation on the platform, mixed with Star Ocean and…

I will absolutely JUMP at the chance to criticize Nintendo, but 'walking dead'? Hardly. The 3DS is a behemoth, and while I don't like it (except Fire Emblem) many millions do.

The Wii-U? Yeah. Absolutely crap, the proof for me was Nintendo Direct last night, which lead to me trading in my console for Steam vouchers…

While I like this move, it's not enough to help out the ailing Wii-U. Yakuza 1 + 2 are great games that have already seen a re-release on the PS3. A port of a re-release isn't gunna be making any huge waves anytime soon.

The sushi place near me does Wasabi ice cream... It's delicious. :|

But not spicy enough. :|

I was always going to stand in Windows' corner, nothing you said could have persuaded me to move to OSX. That was, until Windows 8. :|

I appreciate his honesty. The game was on my radar anyway, but now - I'ma feel even better picking it up. Fuck false promises, tell me the truth. "This game will be awesome, fun as shit, but it'll be short". - Prefer this approach, than the same horseshit companies try to feed us with 'EPIC ADVENTURE' crap.

Thanks, think I'll needa sign up for a Japanese PSN account, as it's only a matter of time before they announce a yakuza game for the vita, and it's inevitable JPN only demo :|

Gravity Rush is currently on my play list, and it's AWESOME. Will check out SOund Shapes and Guacamelee as well. Cheers!

Bought a second hand Vita for this. Grabbed the demo, wasn't disappointed. PS Plus is kinda sweet too, but I've heard Persona 4 is beef. Anything else I should consider a 'must have?'

I'm not saying anything about Dead Island, as I haven't played it. But I HAVE played Dark Souls... and those guys got a TREAT. :D

More articles like this please Kotaku. This was awesome, and a refreshing change from the filler you've been posting recently. The author should be proud, awesome work.

Sorry. My bad.

This is absolutely ridiculous, and the least of Russia's troubles. Putin being one of them.... The idea of banning a shitty anime because it was found in a suicidal persons room beggars belief. :|

Why do I really want this in my backyard? :|

The Wii-U was a huge mistake. News at ten. :P

Deadly Premonition is boss. The wya it's being marketted is that it's *FINALLY* a way for PS3 owners to play the game, in a new and updated* fashion (*not updated).

Bought it at launch on the 360. Got this coming at launch for the PS3. It's one of the better gaming experiences I've had in recent years. As a game…

Apparently the last game he will *direct*

Not sure how to take that. If he'll only reprise the role of producer, or if he's retiring. Who knows?
