gamrReview's Nick Pantazis: "Two weeks after the launch of Nintendo's latest flagship console and I'm coming to grips with my feelings on it. The good news: they're overwhelmingly positive overall. The bad news: there's still quite a bit of bad news. So here are the four things that I find most amazing and awful about the Wii U... so far."
The Nintendo Switch is potentially nearing its lifespan, and several Wii U games haven't found their way over as ports yet.
I think it's better to leave games like AC: Amiibo Festival and Mario Tennis: Ultra Smash forgotten on the Wii U. Best case, they are mediocre games; worse case, they are very bad. It was a dark time for the Wii U, and the first only exists to sell Amiibo cards, whereas the second was put together in a couple of months with a shoestring budget, and it shows.
The rest of the list does have some really cool games, though. I would love to see a remake of Star Fox Zero with decent controls, and Xenoblade X doesn't require that much modification to work.
This article leaves out Nintendo's most controversial game to date devils Third.
I personally found the cover system really fun in that one compared to at the time most fps games completely lacking one.
Kirby is always ignored or forgotten by people, so good to see it mentioned here.
Play Kirby Canvas Curse on DS, and then play Rainbow Curse on Wii U, they're really fun and unique 'platformers' without any actual jumping.
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.
doesn't really madder, you know how Nintendo fans are....they'll buy anything with there label on it.
"No in-game voice chat from the GamePad."
Wrong! I've played AC:III MP several times now and can confirm that there is in game VC allowed using just the Gamepad itself. I've read everywhere that it wwasn't possible unless you had a headset, to my surprise the first match I played, I was able to chat completely off of my Gamepad with other players in session. This is a pleasant surprise as people keep saying your not able to do this. I have yet to try it on other games but if it works as well as it does on AV:III, things will be cool. I still hope Nintendo puts out either a WiFi or Bluetooth headset soon.
