25 reasons you need Nintendo's new box of joy.
Game developers have already started to confirm that they will support the Nintendo Switch 2 with their future titles.
Hanzala from eXputer: "As Nintendo takes out 20 years' worth of stuff from Garry's Mod, I watch in shock, thinking why it continues to hurt and discourage its fans."
The irony that some of the most disgusting business practices come from companies like Disney or Nintendo, i can't even begin to understand what terrible damage was Garrys Mod making to Nintendo bottom line, imho they're getting pretty nervous about where they're heading in the future, handhelds are no longer something exclusive to Nintendo, from Steam Deck to many others, now you can play the latest games and pay a fraction of the price on Steam sales, so it's up to their exclusives, which just on their own would make hard to justify purchasing a closed overpriced hardware with outrageous price policies (Super Mario Odyssey is still 60 euro 6 years later!), and as a home console they're always underperforming compared to Sony or Xbox.
Look at how they handled Nintendo games being streamed or uploaded on YouTube in the past. They killed Yuzu and Citra even when they had nothing to do with ToTK being leaked, not to mention it was basically unplayable on emulation the week it was leaked. Smash Bros tournament, that was fairly recent. They shut down their online services without any care for purchases made. I bought a switch after skipping their last 2 consoles and handhelds but I don't plan on buying anything Nintendo in the future. They take things to the extremes, they legitimately hate their fans. They're honestly right up there with the likes of Acti, EA, and Ubi, only difference is that they disguise themselves as being family friendly all the while being shady.
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."
Some of these like "proper multiformat games" don't really work when the ports are honestly not very good.
However, this article does interest me in getting a Wii U. The present may be clouded in misery for many gamers, but the future looks nice to me with games like the obvious next 3D Mario, Zelda, Smash Bros, Pikmin, and stuff like Monster Hunter, Dragon Quest X, Bayonetta 2, and The Wonderful 101.
I would wait for a patch which should come out soon, and wait for 2013 lineup. the 2013 lineup looks a lot better, not to mention, launch titles will be much cheaper.
Next year is Pikmin, Monster Hunter, Bayonetta, The Wonderful 101, Rayman Legends, Hopefully another 1st part title and the new Retro Studios game. Dragon Quest 10 NEEDS to make it's way outside of Japan for the Wii U.
Im actually in love with the Wii U. Mario at Launch was huge. ZombiU is the hardcore game I wanted on Wii U. Ninja Gaiden 3 Razor's Edge is a fantastic game. The eShop is clean and works fine. Nintendo has done a spectacular job with Wii U. It completely destroys the Wii in every aspect.
Half of these reasons are just games.
I'm going to hold off on the Wii U for now (don't have the money laying around and I don't like being an early adopter).
