Wii U sales in North America aren't so hot right now and Gimme Gimme Games has a suggestions for how Nintendo might turn it around like new hardware bundles, dropping the Deluxe SKU to $299, and more.
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.
metroid, starfox, zelda, make more nintendo resident evil exclusives (like the gamecube had)
Cut the price.
More T-M rated games.. Maybe some added features too..
Your people in the USA already get it dirt cheap! its worth every penny/dime!! and will only get better! ask yourself how much do apple fan boys pay every year a new phone/ipad comes out?? $600!!!
Here in the UK we pay about $150 more then you, once the better games come out it should sell! saying that COD black ops, Trine 2, Zombie U, zen 2 are all excellent games and some are FREE or nearly FREE! off TV play is mind blowing as a parent!!
Pay Usher to Dance during This Year's E3!
Usher could make-up a NEW Zelda Dance.
Wait- I just got a better idea...
They could show-off New Zelda During E3, Start partnerships with other companies to make games, create a new 3D Mario, and Show-off New Games during E3 this year...
Wait, aren't they already doing that?
- Well, I guess I have nothing to say but, "Usher."
