With Nintendo’s new console failing to set the gaming world alight, Gabe Carey suggests six things that the company needs to unveil for the Wii U at June’s E3 expo.
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.
wii u needs a new zelda, come on nintendo, blow our minds
1. Games (1st-party)
2. More Games (3rd-party, if any)
3. Even More Games (Surprise Us!)
4. Re-brand/Name Change
5. Slash Price On All Models by $50
6. More Focus On Nintendo Network and Online Gaming
1) Many of Nintendo's Franchises will have dramatic changes or new twists.
-Smash Brothers is supposed to get a Serious Formula Change.
-The Next 3D Mario probably won't be Galaxy but something that takes advantage of the WiiU GPad.
-The Art Style or Blurb of the next Zelda is enough to set the Internet ablaze.
-More Bayonetta 2
2) What the heck is RETRO working on?
3) Nintendo said that they are working with many 3rd Parties to bring Exclusive Content. Who and What?
4) Other than this I they need an entertaining Show presentation.
5) New IP's would be great. I think that they need an Exclusive Mature HD FPS and an exclusive Open World Title.
-This won't be done by Nintendo Directly but they have funded "Mature" titles in the past from "Golden Eye"/"Perfect Dark" to "Eternal Darkness" to the original "Conker Quest".
6) This may be to soon but it would be great if they have 2K Sports come up on stage announcing WiiU support.
7) If they got a GTA Port, hopefully Lego City made them think.
A new IP. I agree with that one especially
Here is what I want
1.Gears of Wars Trilogy
2.Better online
3.Fast Downloads
4.Kingdom Hearts 3 Exclusive
5.Final Fantasy 13 (all)
