Gi - The Nintendo Wii U dropped into stores last month, and the Nintendo 3DS XL launched earlier this year. The Wii U continues Nintendo’s path of making unconventional consoles, replacing the Wii’s revolutionary remote controller with the Wii U GamePad. The 3DS XL, on the other hand, is just a bigger version of the 3DS, which is basically a DS with 3D graphics and a few upgrades.
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."
Hanzla from eXputer inquires: "If Xbox can care about preserving its games and legacy, what exactly is wrong with Nintendo, trying to kill game preservation single-handedly?"
Ahh yes the good old game preservation of saving all your games to a removable hhd on the Xbox 360, taking it round your mates house, setting up multiple tvs to
Be met with “save data corrupted, please re download”
Or how about removing 360 games
From the store
, download them now or else, and, better hope to god that save data doesn’t corrupt, or it’s lost for ever
Nice one ☝️
This is just a scammy PR move to distract from the fact they are going digital only and trying to push streaming and subscriptions only.
No gaming company has pushed harder to remove ownership than Microsoft.
Without discs there is no preservation, preservation can't be done by the rights holders it can only be done by the consumers, anything else is a lie.
Nobody wants this. Sales or the lack of it in the case of XBOX is very telling. I wonder how the adorably all digital series X will fare. Adorably dismal perhaps?
Only time will tell, but for from someone like me suspecting that Xbox is trying to gracefully exit the console market, that "forward compatibility" team is trying to get Xbox games playing on Windows PCs. I mean, it's nice that they're not planning on exiting with a "enjoy your games while the hardware still works" message, so that's nice. They still have a brand to protect via Microsoft so probably feel obligated to have a better exit strategy.
Danish from eXputer: "Nintendo has historically gone against player-made content and emulation of its games. This has done much to harm the company's image."
They need to stop announcing these mods and fan remakes until they're finished. Finish it, upload it, and then if Nintendo dmca's it tough shit. Once it's online, people can share it around, even if the original download gets taken down.
This is all coming from the mouth of short-sighted fandom and grifting madness.
No.... it wont. There is a clear defined reason why they don't. This is nothing new. Make your own shi7 from your own original ideas especially if you are trying to capitalize of it it. Duh.
Yeah, hire people that have zero respect or understanding for an established process. Wow. Yep. Totally makes sense.
only haters and fake gamers try to make that case...look at the launch lineup of the wiiu and its mostly all games fake gamers call hardcore
yes if by casual you mean smashing up a zombies brain to pieces in zombi u, jumping off building to assassinate people in assassin's creed, runing around with an ak47 in a middle of a war in cod, cutting peoples limbs off with a ninja in ninja gaiden 3 ( xbox and ps doesnt do that in 3 because there hardcore) , and fighting nearly to the death tag team style in tekken. also the 3ds has 2 resident evil games, splinter cell and mgs3 too name a few without going into nintendo's casual franchises like zelda and metriod, but yeah if all these games are casual then nintendo certainly is.
I have never really heard such arguments when it comes to something as blurred as core and casual gaming. Casual gaming to me is mostly handheld phones and Facebook games, while pretty much anything on a dedicated console or handheld are core.
Nintendo has always been what I'd consider family friendly, and it's hard to argue with the success that they've had with that. I believe that people look for different reasons just to hate on Nintendo and that is the easiest target.
This argument is so ridiculous and overdone. But whatever. Plenty of "hardcore gamers" like Nintendo. Period. End of story. I'm sorry some people just can't wrap their heads around that. It's like you're only a "gamer" if you put on a headset, turn on your 360, and play Halo.
I'm 27 years old and have been playing games since I was 4. I've had Nintendo, Super Nintendo, Sega Genesis, Playstation, N64, PS2, PS3, and Wii consoles. I've also had Gameboy, Gameboy Color, Gameboy Advance, Nintendo 3DS, PSP, and Vita. I've loved my Wii. And I want a Wii U. But yea, I must not be "hardcore" because I like Nintendo.
actually nintendo said they want the CORE GAMERS BACK so they are not Just for casual gamers you dumb TROLL Metriod,Starfox,F-ZERO, ZELDA and SSB Are for casual gamers? LOL
