What is Digg?81 Comments
- Sabin, on 01/14/2008, -2/+35Having seen video of this game in action I am afraid of what they would have to do to it to get it on the Wii. Even if they did make a version for the Wii there is no way I would buy it over the PS3/360 version. By now you should have learned that Wii games that are ported from other console are almost always terrible, Wii games have to start from the ground up as Wii games. The Wii is not capable of games like the PS3/360 are. I love my Wii for what it is but I don't pretend its in the same league technically as the PS3/360.

- Yzzerdd, on 01/14/2008, -9/+19buried. Using digg to shill your worthless petttion is pretty stupid.
Claim: Signing and circulating online petitions is an effective way of remedying important issues.
Status: False - TheRealDj, on 01/14/2008, -4/+13This game without physics = fail
- TritonX, on 01/14/2008, -1/+9So, you want another ugly shooter for the wii... Why do you think they didn't matter porting COD4 for the wii?
- KSUdesigner, on 01/14/2008, -0/+7In case it does, note that I was here.
- logicalnoise, on 01/14/2008, -3/+10*points to the wii port of spiderman 3*
- smurf22, on 01/14/2008, -2/+8If this works I will give everyone here a million dollars.
- stafax, on 01/14/2008, -1/+7I hope you realize that porting a GC/PS2 game to the wii is completely different from porting a 360/Ps3/PC game to the Wii
- mywhitenoise, on 01/14/2008, -5/+10Yes. That's all Wii players want, ports. Just buy a ***** 360, or PS3, and stop whining.
"littlebigplanet suits Wii" "GTAIV for Wii!?" "MGS4 would be better ported to Wii"...give me a ***** break. - WaltJay, on 01/14/2008, -0/+5Right, because the Wii version of multiplatform games end up so much better than the PS3/360 version!
- terminalpariah, on 01/14/2008, -0/+5I love the Wii, but Capcom is already dedicating a lot of resources towards creating original Wii games (BUY ZACK & WIKI)
I think a port of BC would be disappointing. It would also take time away from the core 360/PS3 version and from their Wii developers (thereby hindering Z&W2). - Zephkiel, on 01/14/2008, -1/+6There's a reply button for a reason.
- Frostman3D, on 01/14/2008, -0/+4Can anyone show me one or more examples of an online petition to make a game that actually resulted in said game being made? Do that for me.
- AngryAngryBrian, on 01/14/2008, -2/+6I'll sign that, but I would like to see the following as well: Earthbound, Super Mario RPG, and Dig Dug.
- Psykus2, on 01/14/2008, -0/+3"While there seemed to be no hope for a Wii version, we found out that it was quite the opposite. A Capcom employee came out and said; in a much more eloquent way, that if we wanted to see Bionic Commando on the Wii, we would have to voice that opinion."
- Yodzilla, on 01/14/2008, -1/+4you people are delusional
- houndeyex, on 01/14/2008, -2/+5Internet Petitions = SO SUCCESSFUL
- humboldt79, on 01/14/2008, -0/+2Can Nintendo please come out with the next generation of the Wii console soon please! I want good graphics and playing experience, not just the latter.
- z3021017, on 01/14/2008, -0/+2I hope you can jump this time around.
- phazon88, on 01/14/2008, -0/+2PS2's more powerful than Wii?
- staticneuron, on 01/14/2008, -1/+3How would you know what the game needs or not? How do you know it doesn't employ a powerful physics system? What if they just don't have the time or resources to make another version for the wii?
I am sick of these self important wii fans trying to justify their selfish belief that the industry HAS to revolve around them. Gameplay is about design but some games "Require" the extra power or feature to match the origanal creators design. And graphics help seperate games in this highly competitive industry. You can cry all you want about graphics and design while playing a game on the wii but for people with more powerful consoles if three games in the same genre comes out with the same funfactor then it is left up to the design and graphics to net peoples interest. I am sorry you "favor" the console that might not give you the choice but hey...its all about gameplay right? - staticneuron, on 01/14/2008, -0/+2"Gameplay is about DESIGN, my friend, and i'm getting sick of people acting like if the hardware isn't state of the art a game cant be made and its completely BS. Not everything needs to be a hyper-realistic super detailed bump mapped texture-a-thon."
This comment right here. This sums up what I have heard before. It seems (this may not be the case for you) that most fans who talk along these lines seem to want to have the exact game ported over. if you cannot port over the graphics an you have to change the gameplay to match the unique contoller then what is the point? Either this a complaint about the actual game our people just want another game by the name of bionic.
And no games are not ALL about gameplay. It is an important factor but alot of people like to play games for the story and the immersive graphics. Do you honestly think this industry would have gotten so far on gameplay alone? If the stories and graphics never grew and became more compelling I am pretty sure this industry would be much smaller. I for one wouldn't be apart of it. When I was younger playing a game for the sake of playing a game was ok. Now, unless it is fulfilling in one way or another my time would be better spent doing something productive.
Gameplay is a major part of things but it is not everything.
And as you can see my arguement was not a strawman arguement because if your not asking for a direct port then what on earth is really being asked?
This is beyond silly. - charlescheese, on 01/14/2008, -0/+2Are you really comparing guitar hero ports to what's going on in Bionic Commando on PS3 and 360? Do you really think that technically, graphically etc that there is a lot happening in guitar hero? There is no way in hell the wii can pull off a game like BC and have be even a reasonably similar experience to what's going on in the PS3 and 360 versions. I owned a Wii, I played a lot of Wii games, including Galaxy, and I've seen NOTHING to indicate that the Wii could come anywhere close to pulling BC off on a whole lot of fronts. The physics, the graphics, the AI, they make the game, and if you get rid of those things, it's fundamentally a different game. This is why when the did the Wii version of Ghostbusters they made an entirely different game for the Wii than they are for 360 and PS3. If they were going to do a BC game, it would have to be made from the ground up for Wii, and it would not be the same experience. Maybe it would be better, but it would have to be a completely different game.
- TritonX, on 01/14/2008, -0/+2Lol, yeah right you're telling me it's the same engine running on the DS, that's what a port means in my book. Yeah I meant bothered but couldn't edit in time ;).
- BlueSkyfish, on 01/14/2008, -5/+7Didn't meet your daily trolling quota yet, I see.
- Yzzerdd, on 01/17/2008, -0/+2If not being a ass kisser that wears rose tinted glasses makes me a troll then I guess I'm a troll.
The word is just a scapegoat to brush off negative comments and you know it. - Yzzerdd, on 01/17/2008, -0/+2Now that I think about it the definition of a fanboy would be someone that makes a online petition because the game they want isn't on their console of choice, and then floods it with signatures and gets mad about people saying bad things about said petition.
- Yzzerdd, on 01/14/2008, -0/+1Hey guys remember the Buy Zack & Wiki campaign?
- editorinchimp, on 01/14/2008, -0/+1How, I ask, how will the world survive without Bionic Commando for Wii?
- macdaddydwj, on 01/14/2008, -0/+1People who love their Wii want Wii controls, highly enticing multiplayer aspects, and overall excellent gameplay, all for an admittedly cheaper price point. Bring Goldeneye to the Virtual Console, and give people the ability to use the Wiimote, or Wiimote and Nunchuck... that will be the best selling game for the Wii.
- iofthestorm, on 01/14/2008, -1/+2I assume you meant bother, and why do you think they bothered to port it to the DS? Money speaks like no other...
- Arrestedevelopr, on 01/14/2008, -0/+1The Bioshock collectors edition petition worked, of course the petition was to convince 2k to allow consumers to give them more money so I'm sure they weren't hard to convince.
- CaptShmo, on 01/14/2008, -0/+1think of how may calories you could burn!
- bribwk55, on 01/14/2008, -1/+2it shouldn't matter if it's useless. It take two seconds to sign the thing. Who cares. also it couldn't hurt.
- Yzzerdd, on 01/14/2008, -0/+1You are talking apples and oranges, the CE of Bioshock was already in the works they wanted to drum up hype
- likedonduan, on 01/18/2008, -0/+1For those who didn't know, RMC made this petition because several days ago Capcom made some sort of announcement that they will make Bionic Command for Wii if the audience want it.
On the other side, if Capcom just made some lazy port from 360/PS3 to Wii then it would be their lost. However if Capcom manage to make decent Bionic Command for Wii and advertise it (unlike Zack and Wiki), maybe everyone will buy it. - rjett, on 01/14/2008, -0/+1Oh man, I used to love playing Bionic Commando as a kid. Talk about a great game! Now all we need are the Ninja Turtles games, Calfornia Games, and Robocop and all my childhood memories can return!
- Yzzerdd, on 01/17/2008, -0/+1They are extremely mad a game they want isn't on their console of choice, this happened on the gamecube all the time. So mad in fact they believe a online petition will accomplish something.
- stafax, on 01/14/2008, -1/+2I completely agree. If you only own a wii and refuse to buy a new console, support the exclusives like Zack and Wiki so more developers will make games like that instead of crappy ports.
- ChokingVictims, on 02/18/2008, -0/+1Good point I was actually thinking about controls more then graphics
- KenDigg, on 01/14/2008, -0/+1The problem here, and I am sure Capcom is aware, that clicking over and signing an online petition is quick and free. It's a much different deal to go out and purchase a game.
- Bulerias, on 01/14/2008, -0/+1Not true. I distinctly remember an online petition working on a Phoenix Wright game... or was it something else... but an instance stands out in my mind. I just can't remember exactly what it was. :(
I sort of agree with you on the graphical front. Even though it doesn't look too good for a 360/PS3 game, it'll look worse on Wii, sadly... - Yzzerdd, on 01/14/2008, -0/+1That is what happens when gamers think the only console they need this generation is a wii.
- cortjezter, on 01/17/2008, -0/+0you don't know anything about me or what i know. stop prentending that you do.
- cortjezter, on 01/17/2008, -0/+0yes, that's true. but i don't see anyone who falls into that category :-P
- charlescheese, on 01/14/2008, -1/+1That's because Dig Dug can be pulled off by the xbox. There's the difference.
- Yzzerdd, on 01/16/2008, -0/+0Hell no
- Yzzerdd, on 01/16/2008, -0/+0You have no idea how the industry works, stop acting like you do.
- Yzzerdd, on 01/17/2008, -1/+1Funny people that shout the word "fanboy" are usually the actual fanboys.
The Wii needs more games built from the ground up and original IP not cheap ports and franchise games.
I have a Wii and a 360 so don't call me a fanboy because I have an opinion. -
