GenGAME writes: "If the 'commotion' generated by Miiverse can really work effectively as a feedback mechanism, then that could be the path towards growth as Nintendo continues to refine its games' quality and appeal. If it does its job as a native marketing tool, Nintendo will be able to spread its software to players in a completely unprecedented way. Either way, Miiverse isn’t just an online community; it’s a new way for Nintendo to get people playing."
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.
That would be amazing seeing as Miiverse looks to be the future and set new standards for the online gaming space. Pure innovation, combined with an already existing successful formula looks to be the golden ticked that Nintendo online has always needed. The complexity of this Elite service that was shown on Nintendo Direct several months ago looked nothing short of astonishing. A completely new way to enjoy our evolving hobby.
The Nintendo Wii U entertainment system looks to be doing everything right so far. Day one purchase for this amazing machine. Online gaming will never be the same again. Nintendo has always been a company for the people, with a never ending battle to get as many people to enjoy gaming as possible. Nintendo Miiverse looks to take that existing tradition to the next level with next generation connectivity.
Have a blessed day and happy gaming.
Rated E For Everyone
If the tablet could be taken anywhere and used to interact with Miiverse at anytime, then perhaps you could get somewhere. It would also help if Miiverse could be accessed from things like computers and smartphones.
Ease of use is the best way if Nintendo is actually serious about it.
It could work given the tablet and it's an added plus that what you have to say has a higher chance of being heard by Nintendo. Unfortunately, parental controls could sway people away from participating there more than in Internet forums.
Judging by what goes on at N4G...
That would be a definite mistake(I'm not against the proposition, though).
The only thing that worries me is that nintendo said it could take 30 minutes or more for the posts to get through
