[Review] Resident Evil: Revelations HD (Wii U)

Posted on 11 years ago by Austin(@NE_Austin) in Features, Reviews, Wii U, Wii U eShop | 0 comments

A sizable step in the right direction.

Author: Austin

I think, at this point, it’s very difficult to judge a Resident Evil title without comparing it to past entries in the series. It’s almost like Sonic in that respect, constantly trying to reinvent itself with a blend of what people used to like about the franchise and a more modern, trendy aesthetic. With Resident Evil: Revelations on 3DS (2011), Capcom appeared to be making strides towards meshing their two play-styles (survival horror and action-horror) together, and after the critical and commercial success of the game they decided to re-release it in high-definition for Wii U, Playstation 3, and Xbox 360.

And honestly, I’m very happy about that.

Yakuza 1 & 2 HD – Wii U/PS3 comparison

Posted on 11 years ago by Brian(@NE_Brian) in News, Wii U | 0 comments

Japanese blogs have been “ablaze” with talk about the Wii U version of Yakuza 1 & 2 HD. There is a thought that it suffers from slightly worse visuals compared to its PlayStation 3 counterpart that came out in Japan last year. Based on images released thus far, the Wii U version seems to possess some slightly jaggier edges, and an overall downgrade – though minor – in graphics.

Have a look for yourself in the gallery above.
