Furious Francis and Hero the Impaler discuss the weeks hottest gaming news. Nintendo’s slashed forecasts, EA bold Wii U statements, and shooters. Trust me you don’t want to miss this one.
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.
WiiU is NEXTGEN we have way too much concrete proof now i'm not even bothered about these articles.
The WiiU competitors will make WiiU look like this gen (ps3,xbox360) that is why everyone is saying wiiu is not nextgen in comparison. It's because Nintendo didnt want to bother being on par again just like the Wii.
At least have the console specs be a little closer in technological performance rather than so far apart. Otherwise the Ouya is nextgen and the best thing out there.
aww mann . the wiiU isn't next gen ..
ha haaa . but neither is the Gamecube, and the gamecube gots something called Resident Evil 1 remake, and that shihh looks ps3 . so ha!!
weather its the backdrops which by the way are ALIVE, or weather its the modeLs, that game is the most astonishing looking videogame to grace the earth . .any naysayers? . come .. let the schooling begin .
p.s. . if the wiiU isn't next gen, then Nintendo's about to show this generation, how to use this much power properly . .
p.s. at this years E3, Nintendo is gonna damage your souL ...
how can it be next gen when its already here? it's current gen idiots.
