Brian Shea from VGW discusses the reasons why the Wii-U may not be as dead in the water as we'd like to think...and a few reasons why the console may have already failed.
While the mainstream media always sees things turning in favor of the hero, here are 6 games that own being a bad guy.
Pretty much all of these games listed are based around a morality system you don't have to be bad and you don't have to be good.
It seems to have left out some real amazing games like red dead redemption 1/2,ass effect and true crime la/ny
Armored Core VI?
Ok, I'm really missing something here. Just beat chapter 3 earlier this evening, unlocked A-rank Arena fights. I'm not seeing or sensing any branching paths or morality system and I've done every side mission and arena fight available to me up to that fight.
Is something big coming soon to branch the story?
No mention of Grand Theft Auto? Saints Row (original trilogy), Manhunt? Also The Suffering (depending on the ending you get).
INDIE Live Expo, Japan’s premiere online digital showcase series , will debut never-before-seen games & content updates across more than 100 titles on May 25th.
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.
Boy bill gates is at it again!! I wonder if he ever gets hand cramps by writing all these so called FAIR articles on the wii u, I cannot wait to see all the articles on how the ps4 can fail, OH WAIT, THAT'S IMPOSSIBLE RIGHT??? just garbage and now the doom and gloomers are trying to play both sides, like the wii u could, COULD, survive, but really it's already doomed!! WOW! the wii u is going to last, but hey, what ever helps the delusional trolls sleep at night!
The three reasons it can't are a bit weak as they are dynamic, in that the current situation can change in regards to third party and sales, with the last one being unconfirmed. Nobody knows how powerful the Wii U is. All we know is that it was capable of running PC assets of a late 2012 game with incredible ease (See Need For Speed Most Wanted U).
We also know that developers are only using a 1 out of 3 of the cores with their games (See Project Cars & Nano Assault Neo). Project Cars is a 2014 game that looks gorgeous. At the very least, we know that the system hasn't maxed it's full potential.
Other than that though, nice article.
