Bad: the name means that every website tries to make a bad pun with it

Y_51504128d ago

U know Ur reply speaks for the Universe.

IAMERROR4127d ago

I agree, the name is bad enough without the puns.

sitharrefus4127d ago

The name is referring to you? so us?

destinyhero4128d ago

Yeah, it'll probably take a year or so until it just stops happening. The day the original Wii's name was revealed was jokes and puns galore.

Wii games look much worse on the Wii U which is disappointing get your eyes checked writer of the article.

RuperttheBear4127d ago

At least it's backward compatible, and it doesn't cost $599.

It wasn't that amazing. I didn't buy one until years after launch, it didn't have many games for the first few years. The Wii U seems to be getting quite a few.

I think the new monolith game proves the WiiU can produce next gen graphics

Steelmanner4127d ago

I agree completely, after see that amazing trailer of the monolith game and the new Monster Hunter coming in March, all my doubts on the wiiU's graphics were gone

herbs4126d ago (Edited 4126d ago )

I fully agree, I noticed pebbles rendered on the ground and the vast detailed draw distances were stunning also that brontosaurus beast was gargantuan. However stated above about Monster Hunter also being next gen graphically is absurd, the game looks good but technically it's infact last gen in hi res.

destinyhero4126d ago

If you read the article, you'll see that I don't list the graphical capabilities as being bad. Xenoblade Chronicles was my GOTY 2012 and I am hyped for Project "X" the most on the Wii U!

How Many More Victims, Like Garry's Mod, Will Nintendo's Hurtful Crusade Create?

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.

i cam guarantee you, that their exclusives alone is what drives switch sales. they sell in the 10s of millions of copies.

nintendo created their franchises to be sort of nostalgia driven, exclusive only on nintendo.

people will always buy the pkmn games as they always bring in new younger fans amd is family friendly

mario kart, the same thing, mario games in general.

zelda games are system sellers. animal crossing for the casual gamers.

nintendo doesnt need third vame devs essentially. they made sure with the switch and the limitations that they looked more to pc ps and xbox.

its sad, but nintendo is more than fine with what they're doing. they positioned themselves to appeal to the more casual gamers.

but to your point, im not sure why they're doing this rly.

Inverno9d ago

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.

Nintendo's Massacre Of The 3DS And Wii U Is Finally Complete, Regrettably

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."
