Why is Mario Kart 8 looked at as being any stronger a title than Super Mario 3D World? I mean, if it weren't for the free game that came with it, I probably wouldn't have found MK8 to be as good of a value as SM3DW personally. I guess it's the first real Wii U title (aside from the much more niche Pikmin) that has a…

Will Wright had always been special up to that point because he was able to consistently produce blockbusters with relatively small budgets. It also helped that he was with EA from a relatively early period. Not quite mid-80's Archon early, but early enough that he probably had friends near the top of the company and…

You know, I don't think there has been a time since the Wii U released that I felt their releases weren't spread out enough.

He's a chef known for his trademark saying 'BAM!' while liberally tossing spices on something in order to 'kick it up a notch'.

Sakurai: I thought it over for about a minute and immediately decided against it.

I don't see how licensing can be an issue when they haven't even released Mario 64 on the Wii U yet (which was on Wii at launch). Surely they can get around the licensing problem for their own bloody games.

Well, it makes me feel a little happier and less jaded to see that you at least aren't just someone talking about perceived imbalances rather than trying deliberately to correct them.

I somehow doubt that. Personally I think everything you are saying is a bunch of hyperbole and that the emotions you are describing aren't nearly quite so intense as your capitalization emphasis would imply. I mean really? NOTHING would make her happier than having female video game characters being common? If that's…

If it's so 'overjoying', why would you want to ruin that by making it commonplace?

Redditor HxCurt, who works at an e-cycling plant, says most of them are Activision's dreadful iCarly 2 on DS, which will never find a home, not at any price. Hence their arrival at this most final of destinations.

I don't really believe that's true. EA always let Will Wright more or less do what he wanted. It was more hampered just by the sheer size of its promise than anything else.

I really wish you all would start splitting these lists into exclusives and multiplats so that I could just focus on the exclusives. Nothing against multiplats, but they don't really factor into my eventual decision to buy one console over the other. Maybe even consider listing the platforms each of the multiplat…

I would assume people who buy a console at launch.

And that's exactly why this is probably going to end up being disappointing. Will Wright with all of his resources was unable to deliver on what is basically a premise of the same scope. It wasn't his lack of imagination or scrappy young-person-thinking that held him back either.

Oh come on. Surely you must see at least some parallels.

That's an interesting benchmark for caring. I respond to all kinds of stuff that I don't really give half a shit about.

Well, that's what the pelts of endangered species are for right?

Spore.

Whoa that's a long post. I haven't digested it all yet, but let me just go ahead and say...

In that case, I apologize for my terse response.
