Iwata insists that layoffs are completely off the table, although one major outlet says "it might be too late" for Wii U in this generation.
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.
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.
yea poor nintendo . . way in trouble . . ha ha haaaa
It sucks that many employes could've been potentially affected by layoffs all because of the incompetence of the man in charge. Fire Iwata save Nintendo. ;)
Jesus, its like Nintendo fans time warped back to n4g in 2008 and woke up wearing Sony shirts. Doom and gloom! Wii u is fail! Bwahahaha
Nintendo knows what they are doing. My Wii u is awesome. Games are coming. Mario, Zelda, etc sell. I love the gamepad. Its a solid console.
I was a Sony fan back at ps3 launch and holy crap the PM's I used to get in this site were horrible. Every article was Sony is dead! Lol
Oh how the tides turn. I buy consoles for the games and what the hardware does and doesn't do. Nintendo hardware is solid and the new gamepad is revolutionary in that its a cool controller and a tablet all in one. My ps3 brings me some of the best games I have ever played and I expect the ps4 to mirror or expand on that. The 360s I had had good games, too but it broke on me a few times. Lesson learned.
The xone is going to have some good games, sure but I'm not plugging in kinect. Ever. I know the NSA is not gonna spy on me because I don't sell drugs or children but I fully expect some criminal or hacker asshole to figure out a way to see inside my home. Maybe via WiFi to verify if anyone is home so they can rob me or maybe just some pervert who wants to see my bcups. Either way, titan fall is not worth it.
All things considered, the fact that Nintendo isn't laying any employees off is pretty admirable.
This is one of the stupidest articles I've ever read.
EDIT: The writer basically shunned "employee morale" while giving a biased view that both the PS4 and One have a strong stance in the business.
