Will the predicted success of Wii U help make Microsoft's SmartGlass more relevant to gamers?
Video games are no longer just a simple past time. Today's games are evolving into true works of art. Offering intriguing narratives, cinematic setpieces, and profound messages, games can entertain us for hundreds of hours.
I never got around to mass effect - I’m skeptical that it would hold up if I were to try it now
Originally launched in 2011, El Shaddai: Ascension of the Metatron is coming to Nintendo Switch, so It's time to look back at the original.
Still have my ps3 copies. Bought it at launch and another one when I found it cheap and in perfect condition about 10 years ago. I wouldn’t buy it on Switch but if they made a PS5 version I would. I still have one of my PS3 Fats hooked up so good to go either way.
Id play it again on the switch. I wished my 360 version was bc but this is still a good way to play.

People are stupid I get it. No one should feel unsafe,
But I think they need to talk about why they cut so many corners during the development process and why none of their games ever look current. And why they think all of this is okay while they charge full price.
From what has been shown so far both look promising. But the Nintendo Wii U entertainment system tablet like control mechanism seems to be far superior on a gameplay standpoint. Standard gaming buttons will put Nintendos invention far ahead when actual gameplay is concerned, and is more geared toward consumer needs. It simply makes more sense to have the screen, and the buttons readily available with two hands.
Smartglass does seem to be in a way banking off the success off of Nintendo Wii U entertainment system control innovtations this time around. Though all we can do is pray that they are both successful in this overly competitive industry today. I personally just see Nintendos original innovation of a touch screen controller with buttons swan diving much further into the pool of success than an original tablet without an input button in sight.
I actually dont quite understand how it will work properly since I only have two hands and they will both be on the XBOX 360 gaming media pubs controller and not the tablet itself. Hopefully someone here is more equipped with information than I am.

Rated E For Everyone
the wiiu is better imo cause it's a controller and a tablet simultaneously which is pretty neat and can be integrated in more things
Only if Microsoft is also "banking on" our fellow Octopus/Squid gamers to buy SmartGlass some time before November.
You need at least 4 arms to get a similar experience.
SmartGlass looks cool. I'd give it a shot. Of course the Wii U has a better system but that doesn't make SmartGlass any less cool.
The issue with smart glass is the 360 console was not built around the idea. The Wii U updates the gamepad faster than it does the TV. Does smart glass do this? Also wont you still need a controller along with a smart phone to make the most of this? Few smart phones even have buttons so I'm not sure its a viable option for some games.
It is funny though to see the opinions of many gamers changing now. When it was just the Wii U it was a stupid gimmick but now that MS and Sony both have their own versions it's suddenly cool.
Given the option though I will take Wii U. Its much more powerful and actually built around this aspect of game play.
I dont want game play advancements at the cost of graphics improvements. With Wii U you can have both and get a solid system built around multi screen gaming. With PS3/Vita and 360/smart glass you dont get that because they are still using 9 year old CPUs and GPUs with limited RAM.
