GE: "Is the Wii U a next-gen console? Some will say yes, others will say no. This is a topic that has been debated since Nintendo announced the console at E3 2011, and will likely be a point of discussion in the future."
Game Rant chats with the creator of No More Heroes about who he would like to see play the role of Travis Touchdown in a live-action adaptation.
Actually Ryan Gosling makes a ton of sense.
Edit: If this can be done in a Scott Pilgrim movie kind of way that would be dope.
Super Mario Maker's last level has been beaten, after Trimming the Herbs was revealed to be totally bogus.
VGChartz's Mark Nielsen: "With Tears of the Kingdom being so recent and Nintendo’s next system likely coming soon, it’s safe to say we won’t be looking at another big Zelda launch title this around and it’ll likely be years before any ruminations of the next game start to surface, but in the meantime we can always speculate. Breath of the Wild changed things for the series by multiplying its popularity manyfold, so it would seem only logical that the franchise will continue along the path Breath of the Wild started, however a look at the series’ history shows it might not be as simple as that. So, let’s take a look at what the future of this legendary series might have in store for us, blending in equal parts qualified theorizing and wishful thinking."
glad to hear some good things about the wii U
Basically what I got from this is "The Wii U CAN produce some nice looking games, but that's not the point of the platform." Considering that not a single game for it pushes the console, I doubt we're close to seeing its full potential from a gameplay or graphical standpoint.
The wiiu is a LEAP over current consoles. Here's why.
When the xbox 360 launched 90% of the games looked the same as xbox 1 with a higher resolution and some tacked on textures here and there. Some sports games even had framerate issues. And the consoles was generally regarded as a RROD disaster.
All those things were due to Microsoft rushing to get their console out first and hassling devs to do the same with games. So everything turned out poo poo.
A similar thing has happened with wiiu.
The graphics are the same as 360 ,in a few cases a tiny bit worse in some cases a tiny bit better. AKA ''on par''.
But it's not the graphics of the Wiiu that is important.
It's the Off screen play , Asymetric play and generaly having a big ass touch screen controller that demonstrates the leap. Obviously the graphics will be awesome by the end of 2013 and it will at least be demonstrating graphics that are clearly ahead of 360/ps3 albeit clearly behind 720/ps4.
It took three or four years to find out what the PS3 could do. I reckon we'll see some fantastic games on Wii U in a few years not only in graphical terms but I'm sure some very creative people will come up with some amazing ideas for the gamepad.
It is next gen nintendo and that is all that matters.
