As is the case with the 3DS, Wii U demos have play limits.
Hanzala from eXputer: "The cruel hammer of Nintendo has fallen. Farewell, 3DS and Wii U, you surely brightened my life and many others; you won't be forgotten."
A new list goes over eight of the the most useless amiibo, ranging from the Shadow Mewtwo card to the Qbby figure.
VGChartz's Mark Nielsen: "10 years. It’s been almost 10 years since the last mainline release in the Mario Kart series. Mario Kart 8 came out for the Wii U in 2014 and became the best-selling game for the system by a sizeable margin, and later pulled the same magic trick on the Nintendo Switch under the stage name Deluxe. All in all, it's sold nearly 70 million copies over the last decade and is still selling like hot cakes to this day, so it’s no wonder Nintendo has been in no rush to replace it. However, with rumors of a new system being just around the corner, and reports a few years back that a new Mario Kart is indeed under way, it seems the era of 8 might very well be drawing to a close. It’s an exciting prospect to be sure, but after two Nintendo systems with Mario Kart 8 at their heart, a lot of questions remain about how Nintendo will choose to follow it up."
I hope they just keep building on Mario Kart 8; Add a track-creation tool, and probably open it up to more Nintendo IPs with new tracks and characters, so Metroid, Punch Out, Starfox, Animal Crossing, etc etc.
there wont be a new one until the switch 2 comes out.
nintendo needs their bangers early on
Wow. Just wow. Seriously Nintendo? Every article I read about this console makes me want it less and less. Or atleast it drops to $199.
Pretty annoying as to why they would even implement something like that, but eh. I don't think I've ever played a demo more than once anyways. Definitely don't agree with Nintendo on this one, but I doubt I'll be locking myself out of demos anytime soon.
I have tons of demos on my 3DS and have yet to max out my uses. Usually people know if they want the game after the first, or maybe the second time they play a demo. I played Revelations once and knew I wanted it, but played it a couple of more times before deleting it, just for kicks and never came close to maxing out the usage. Who cares! Quite being cheap and pony up the dough is what I say. This will only effect cheap or "frugal" people that don't want to support games. Fortunately this isn't a big deal to gamers like myself, that purchase games they like, and support the developers that spent a lot of time and resources making the game. I don't know about you but when I play a game that's good, I buy it new in hopes that the developer will make a sequel, without the publisher telling them that they can't publish it, due to lack of sales...
I am alright with it. Really you think you'll be playing a demo 30 times?! Or some of 'em on the 3DS does it for 10 times but still I've never played them till 10 as of yet!
Not a big deal, IMHO. When I read the headline, I thought that it was a time limit and not the limited number of tries.
