1985FM takes a look at the Wii U's chances of success in light of Nintendo's recent announcements.
A new list goes over eight of the the most useless amiibo, ranging from the Shadow Mewtwo card to the Qbby figure.
VGChartz's Mark Nielsen: "10 years. It’s been almost 10 years since the last mainline release in the Mario Kart series. Mario Kart 8 came out for the Wii U in 2014 and became the best-selling game for the system by a sizeable margin, and later pulled the same magic trick on the Nintendo Switch under the stage name Deluxe. All in all, it's sold nearly 70 million copies over the last decade and is still selling like hot cakes to this day, so it’s no wonder Nintendo has been in no rush to replace it. However, with rumors of a new system being just around the corner, and reports a few years back that a new Mario Kart is indeed under way, it seems the era of 8 might very well be drawing to a close. It’s an exciting prospect to be sure, but after two Nintendo systems with Mario Kart 8 at their heart, a lot of questions remain about how Nintendo will choose to follow it up."
I hope they just keep building on Mario Kart 8; Add a track-creation tool, and probably open it up to more Nintendo IPs with new tracks and characters, so Metroid, Punch Out, Starfox, Animal Crossing, etc etc.
there wont be a new one until the switch 2 comes out.
nintendo needs their bangers early on
With the server shutdown for Nintendo Wii U and 3DS, TSA say goodbye to the small communities and remember the times spent online with these consoles.
Thanks to the modding scene... people can still take their 3ds/WiiU online.

okay can we stop these wii u doom articles i have never taken them seriously since the system is only two months old honestly they are just for hits now and troll bait
Wow, Wii U and Vita just can't seem to catch a break these days. I wouldn't exactly call it a troll article, it's more of an analysis. However, I do think the title "Can Nintendo SAVE the Wii U" is kind of clamoring for hits seeing that the thing is a mere two months old.
I'll just give you guys the last words of the article and you can judge whether you want to read it for yourselves or not.
"Nintendo is an old company, and is desperately clamoring to reinvent itself in an era that has largely passed them by. But if there’s anyone that possesses the resilience to prove time a feckless construct, it’s the father of modern gaming itself. "
Someone should save this article from its moronic headline. Seriously, the doom articles need to stop for both the Wii U and the Vita. This isn't journalism, this is a bunch of click grabbing buffoons.

... but don't you see? They post this stuff because they're scared!
I can't say I blame them, it's looking dim for some.
They want this to be a Wii Useless world!!
I think it's pretty damn funny.
Bring it!
The fact that Nintendo is having a hard time producing hardcore games for the wii U was to be expected; because of how young Nintendo development team are compared to more experienced 3rd party dev like Sega/Namco.
Back In the 80's,I read that most gaming experts knew this change was coming in the future-the sprite era was going to be replaced by the 3d era.
With that being said,the more experienced gaming companies(Sega/namco/tecmo/etc ) who had been using 3d applications way ahead of smaller companies like Nintendo will most likely fall behind in the gaming race.
So the only way I think Nintendo can excel with the wii U is they either hiring more experienced employee or buy spend some cash and inquire a game studio. Hiring THQ employee was definitely a great opportunity for nintndo, but they didn't even brother. Maybe next time.
