Kotaku:
These are so terrible I'd tell you not to watch them, but screw it, if I had to, you have to as well.
If time travel is invented anytime soon, giving us the chance to atone for past mistakes, I like to think the first person in line will be the man who signed off on the name "Wii U" instead of "Wii 2" or "New Nintendo Console That's Not The Wii OK Guys".
The Nintendo Switch is potentially nearing its lifespan, and several Wii U games haven't found their way over as ports yet.
I think it's better to leave games like AC: Amiibo Festival and Mario Tennis: Ultra Smash forgotten on the Wii U. Best case, they are mediocre games; worse case, they are very bad. It was a dark time for the Wii U, and the first only exists to sell Amiibo cards, whereas the second was put together in a couple of months with a shoestring budget, and it shows.
The rest of the list does have some really cool games, though. I would love to see a remake of Star Fox Zero with decent controls, and Xenoblade X doesn't require that much modification to work.
This article leaves out Nintendo's most controversial game to date devils Third.
I personally found the cover system really fun in that one compared to at the time most fps games completely lacking one.
They should remake Starfox to the switch 2. Very beautiful game during gamecube days.
Kirby is always ignored or forgotten by people, so good to see it mentioned here.
Play Kirby Canvas Curse on DS, and then play Rainbow Curse on Wii U, they're really fun and unique 'platformers' without any actual jumping.
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."
A new list goes over eight of the the most useless amiibo, ranging from the Shadow Mewtwo card to the Qbby figure.
I remember that they also compared the Wii U to the Wii. That wasn't smart because why would you trash your OWN console. They should have compared it to the 360, PS3, or other handhelds and stuff.
Hardly seen any promotion material for the Wii U outside of gaming sites. Seemed like I couldn't escape Nintendo ramming the Wii down my throat at the time.
That's not advertising with a Panic Button....
Those...weren't that bad? I just feel like they didn't do enough to make the distinction that this is a brand new console, not an "upgrade" to your Wii.
Haha wow Nintendo is really desperate to be doing ads like this. I especially love how in the third ad the daughter tries to high five her mom and the mom just disses her. Great editing Nintendo.
And it's so poorly acted.
