Anyone have Transformers Prime on Wii U? Is it native 1080p and 60fps?

Finally, the kind of recognition X deserves from the press. Most Anticipated: X.
I'm not going to quote anything because it's all worth reading. I will say one thing, though: as the article's stated, we should be glad that Nintendo has the pockets to fuel Takahashi's ambitions, while also possessing the wisdom to know when to reign in on him. I just can't wait to see what kind of insane and wonderful shit he and his team are going to pull off with X.
(And I realize this is an old article, but I haven't seen it posted anywhere.)

Shit like this is why I'm convinced that X will be absolutely bonkers. The guy clearly has talent, and this is his opportunity to run with it.

X is the most anticipate title for Wii U, I put it above Bayonneta 2.
O really enjoyed Xenoblade if this game expands and evolves all the elements from the first game, I can not see a reason for it fail, probably sales will be
at 400k level, but anyone.

Xenoblade is only 5% of the game he originally envisioned, and X might be the full realization of that ambition. Xenoblade was already a JRPG of unprecedented scale; the mind boggles at attempting to picture a game twenty times its size. If X really is that game, I don't think any of us know what we're really in for yet.
I know. And that knowledge keeps me up at night.

Here's my question, with what we've seen of X, does it surpass Skyrim? At least on PS360?
Monolith specifically said their goal was to do just that.
So graphically and whatnot, how does it compare? How big is Skyrim?

A few things.
1. That isn't what they meant. They didn't say they would surpass Skyrim. They said they wanted to show that Japanese developers could keep up with studios like Bethesda. Which X clearly shows on a technical and graphical level.
2. It's an apples to oranges comparison anyway. They use completely different style and techniques.
3. We haven't seen a finished product for X, yet. Even the last gameplay video was still a work in progress and had some major changes from even a year ago. We don't know the size of the world or how detailed it is.

Thankfully, this isn't how Nintendo does things. They'll let it bake until it's perfect and then it will destroy the world under it's awesome might as the bastion of RPG goodness.
Not to be shallow, but the hype of the Zelda U reveal is going to be 100% based on it's artstyle and graphics.

I will be buying a Wii U for X alone, Xenoblade is the best RPG I've ever had the joy of playing, So much content and stuff to do/explore put so many hours into it.
Any news on who is doing the OST?, Xenoblades OST is "in my opinion" cream of the crop.

First time I saw Watch Dogs, I thought it was incredible and pre-ordered it.
So the time passed, and I played Assassin's Creed III and IV, and got extremely disappointed with III and did not like some features on IV, I cancelled the pre-oder, and
now I would rather wait and see what the game has the offer.

Well, Sawano is certainly the biggest composer there. It definitely has a different musical style from Xenoblade. Lots of opera and rock. Which I like. I really liked the battle music we heard in the gameplay video.

Thanks, Suppose I could of just wiki'd that lol, Anyone know if ACE+ will be back at least?, The composers of Xenoblade are amazing I know nothing of Sawano.
Sawano is mostly an Anime composer. He's done themes for Attack on Titan and Kill la Kill and Gundam Unicorn and various other shows.
This is his first time composing a video game. We don't know the rest of the musical staff, sadly.

Why does Mario Kart 8 have a May 14 release date?

May '14 as in May 2014, not May 14th (or 14 May if you prefer).
Probably should be updated to reflect the exact launch date.

Oh, missed that... Thanks!
I'm wondering if it'll release until holiday 2015, that would be a really long wait.

Sadly, I don't disagree with this. Look at MK 8. If it didn't look as great as it did, there would be an outrage at things like not being able to carry two items at once.
Edit: I find this kind of generalizations annoying because I bet there are many people who wouldn't care if the game loooks like Skyward Sword or The Wind Waker in terms of art-style, really.
I think the most important is the content, though
I have AC3 and AC4 brought them cheap dont really care much for the series but i'm still hyped for Watch Dogs, I doubt they will feel too much the same.
Splinter Cell is awesome I love it, Batman AO is very good enjoyed it, I just dont like AC games very much so i'm not feeling it playing thru it now
Hey fellas! I've purchased Assassin's Creed IV, Batman Arkham Origins and Splinter Cell: Blacklist, each at/under $20! I've never played an AC nor a SC before, and I thought Arkham City was an entertaining game (even if I've yet to finish it...). How did you guys like these games on the Wii U? Any impressions, things to keep in mind?

I created a high expectation from Assassin's Creed III, and when I played I felt so disappointed.
That part of adventure in the real time destroyed the game for me. This is my fault, but I did not know that the game was like that, I mean not living in the past
just doing some stuff there from the present.
And for that reason I don't want to build hype for Watch Dogs, I would rather have lower expectation and not be disappointed.Also I don't like GTA like games,
and some videos I saw from Watch Dogs, somehow made me associate with GTA, sand box game style, walking without a objective.

Yeah, but when we're talking about hype, we're not talking about sensibility. Hype is based solely on "gee-whiz" visuals and bigger numbers.

Sawano did Taiyou no Uta; it's going to be amazing.
You're being really shallow here.
I wonder... Did Takahashi still go through with some of those concessions in the end? That could explain why the Bionis' Shoulder was cut from the game.
Well, let's assume that X's OST's as big as Xenoblade's, that would have it at 91 tracks. That'd be a massive (and impressive) undertaking for a single composer. It's possible we haven't seen the full team of composers yet. Equally unsurprising would be the return of Mitsuda in some capacity (minor, if I had to bet on it) given his involvement with the Xeno series thus far.
Like you, though, this is the first I'm hearing of Sawano. The works of his that people have made me listen to had this grand and bombastic flair to them that I suppose I like, and I loved what I heard from the first teaser piece, so hopefully he does an equally good job with the rest of the OST.
Have you played Fire emblem Path of Radiance? Radiant Dawn is a follow up and I've heard its less enjoyable on its own due to being quite an imbalanced game.
Yes, I have finished it earlier this year. I should have mentioned that.
But I think the die has been cast and DK won the race. I want to ease back in with "pure fun", not strategy management that will keep me up at night.
Kill la Kill - Blumenkranz
Kill la Kill - Before my body is dry
KIll la Kill - Till I Die
Kill la Kill - Suck your blood
Kill la Kill - k1ll◎iLL
Kill la Kill - Kiryuu ga Kill
Attack on Titan - Counter Attack Mankind
Attack on Titan - Rittai Kidou
Attack on Titan - E.M.A
Attack on Titan - The Reluctant Heroes
Attack on Titan - Shingeki st-hrn-egt20130629 Kyojin
Gundam Unicorn - Mobile Suit W-REC Mix
Gundam Unicorn - Remind You
Gundam Unicorn - Mad-Nug
Gundam Unicorn - Riddhe
That should give you a taste of what to expect.
There are many more which I wanted to show but can't find them tube. Haven't played Radiant Dawn, but both DK and Rayman are amazing games. Don't miss out on them. If you can only pick one for now, I'd recommend DK.

DK is great, but I'd personally say Legends. Great gamepad use and just a really fun game.

Just got batman arkham origins for 6 quid (marked at 20 but with 70% off marked price as yellow stickered) in HMV in Oxford, it was band new not preowned but in a white case not blue for some odd reason), no idea if it's just Oxford or nationwide but they did have several copies

I wish! I tried to get back into it a couple of weeks ago while waiting for Mario Kart 8 but nobody is playing online. I tried it a couple of days in a row but couldn't get a single online match going.
The online community has always been small for this game though. I've had it since launch and can count on one hand the number of times I was able to get in a full 10 player match.

Not sure if this will be in 2014, but a new Fatal Frame game for Wii U was announced.

Out of curiosity, where does it say that the Fatal Frame movie is going to be released in 2014? I may have missed it.
Opening this fall in Japan.
