Bare minimum? What other nuttiness does this "Ministry of Gender Equality and Family" endorse?

Jeez, I could get two months worth of poor people food for that amount of money.

What the hell? I'd have thunk Sakurai'd be your goto reverse-ageing asian, but this guy works equally well.

You've convinced me. I'll probably give this game a try after finishing Pikmin 3 and Project P-100. You should probably ring up Ubisoft to tell them you earned 'em fifty-sixty bucks they would not have otherwise earned. I'm kidding, but not about the "I'll try this game" thing, just the calling Ubisoft thing.

Nonono, I love the idea of zombies in general, not just in video games or as a gameplay concept. I like zombies, just not shooters. Zombie movies are great, but few games execute them the way I wish they could be seen, like the Zelda series.

Oh, I never heard of the thing until well after release. No hype affected my perceptions. The campaign satisfied me greatly, but I never played online.

I just watched the demo right above my comment, and the game's giving me a more survival-y feel than I though it was going to have. I haven't watched much of this before now, so I was under the impression that Zombi U was going to be a Dead Space action game under the pretext of survival, when in fact the game looks

Welcome to Kotaku you sexy beast!

Huh. As a Wii U launch title I'm excited for Ubisoft, but as a game I'm just not turned on. Too bad I don't like shooters. Love zombies, not shooters.

So you'll say the Vita's worth it, just because? Don't say the memory card isn't a hidden cost, since you need it to play a two fifths of the Vita's library and most of the Vita's AAA games. Not having a memory card is like buying a Wii without wiimotes; you can play many games through alternate control schemes, but

The commentary was heavily weighted from Apple's position. It was less a commentary on Japanese presentation and business standards than it was about Apple's palpable Japanese flavour.

If this was an article for the sake of flattery, why flatter one who is long dead?

It is made obvious by the Vita's lacklustre sales that something is lacking from Sony's lineup, be it pricing, prestige, games, or a variation of the three. While we individual consumers cannot make accurate observations about the root cause of the Vita's current state of not-selling, referring to the statistics will

I think computers in general are awesome and have an enormous amount of respect and awe levied at their design. If "awesome" decreed the price I'd pay, I'd dispense hundreds of thousands of dollars on each piece of new technology, each new component.

The point isn't to find the true cost of the device, but to find a stable way of comparing costs to other devices of the market. Compare margins, hidden costs, value gleaned. While the $160 price point isn't the more complex truth, it is the more accurate one for our needs.

The number of good games are slowly creeping north. I bought a PS3 sometime in late 2007, and even then there were those who said the PS3 had no good games. It wasn't true, and because of that experience I have been given reason to believe Sony can be counted on to build a sturdy library given a bit of extra time.

Dude, the wifi Vita is estimated to cost $160 to manufacture, with negligible difference in cost to manufacture the 3g version. Factor in the hidden cost of the memory card and you've got a very large margin as far as video game equipment has traditionally been sold.

To be fair, knocking it off the shelf might break the GameCube port cover and the vent, but nothing crucial.

Good! Sony and Nintendo have been echoing each other's mistakes as of late, so perhaps Sony will follow Nintendo's positive aspects too, realising the mistake in their overpricing of the Vita.

Why do people want a remake? I didn't ask for an updated Ocarina of Time, and while I accepted it gladly I am fully aware that it was extraneous.
