Didn't Nintendo already demonstrate this themselves?

guitarded774017d ago

Yes, but this post let me know the update is live so I can patch mine, so it served some purpose. :D

Nevers0ft4017d ago

To Nintendo's credit I actually think they may have downplayed the speed improvement a little in their video. Pretty much everything seems a little bit snappier.

Nice one Nintendo, thanks... Now get back to making some damned games! :)

Divine4017d ago

they're still doing updates and things?? lol

BeZdaBest4017d ago

yea just like there did a update for the vita last week or the upcoming update for the ps3...

what kind of reason is that....

still doing updates..lmao

Divine4017d ago

i was only talking about wii u they should just stop selling them . . . ok im joking.i just cant be so ignorant

Ravenor4017d ago

You're about as subtle as a car crash.

iplay1up24017d ago

I just did another Update for my PS3 last night, So your point is?

Divine4016d ago

absolutely no one is understanding what i was trying to say of-course every freaking system updates i just updated my ps3 and vita the other day. all i was trying to say was that wii u is garbage

young7yang4017d ago

I wander if it fixes framerate issues in certain launch games like batman or darksiders 2

Neonridr4017d ago

doubt it, those would be up to the developer to release game updates. A firmware update is not going to suddenly optimize poorly written code.

lilbroRx4017d ago

You can't patch a console to fix game. How a game runs depends on how the developer makes it.

Wii U games that still haven't been ported to Switch

The Nintendo Switch is potentially nearing its lifespan, and several Wii U games haven't found their way over as ports yet.

I think it's better to leave games like AC: Amiibo Festival and Mario Tennis: Ultra Smash forgotten on the Wii U. Best case, they are mediocre games; worse case, they are very bad. It was a dark time for the Wii U, and the first only exists to sell Amiibo cards, whereas the second was put together in a couple of months with a shoestring budget, and it shows.

The rest of the list does have some really cool games, though. I would love to see a remake of Star Fox Zero with decent controls, and Xenoblade X doesn't require that much modification to work.

How would XCX work without dual screens functionality?

Cacabunga3d ago

Same as Paper Mario color splash. One of the best wiiu games and getting even better with dual screen. Same reason why i prefer Splatoon 1

This article leaves out Nintendo's most controversial game to date devils Third.
I personally found the cover system really fun in that one compared to at the time most fps games completely lacking one.

Stevonidas3d ago

Devil's Third is HIGHLY underrated.

repsahj3d ago

They should remake Starfox to the switch 2. Very beautiful game during gamecube days.

Chocoburger3d ago

Kirby is always ignored or forgotten by people, so good to see it mentioned here.
Play Kirby Canvas Curse on DS, and then play Rainbow Curse on Wii U, they're really fun and unique 'platformers' without any actual jumping.
