Like a fine wine or cheese the Wii has aged. With the Wii U now out for a few months, and Rayman Legends delayed, now is a good time to go back and play some Wii classics. Zack at Nintendo Gamer Thoughts takes a look at 5 of them.
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.
"The Legend of Zelda: Twilight Princess will always be looked upon with memories of the Wii"
I played it on the cube but I look back on when I walked into the front room and my bro was playing a pre-owned copy on the Wii and thinking:
"What the hell, the game world is mirrored!?"
Legend of Zelda: Twilight Princess will be looked back upon as a classic....on the Gamecube.
Skyward Sword was far from perfect, but it was a step in the right direction, we got some amazing antagonists, the relationship between Zelda and link got developed a bit. Dungeons were different on how you went about it.
However, there were still plenty of faults Fi was awful partner to bring up when we just had the BAWWW ending with Midna. Skyloft was as dead as the ocean in Wind Waker. We need a more vivid and livelier land for Hyrule.
Yeah motion sensor was cool, but still the combat was actually deeper with the cool moves in Twilight princess than SS. If were going to continue with motion controls then get a more creative Ninty.
"like a fine wine or cheese the Wii has aged"
Eh?
Everything ages, not just wine and cheese!
Somewhat of a poor selection. I'd say Muramusa, Donkey kong country returns, Zenoblade, Sonic colors, Zelda: skyward sword.
