Now that all the next gen consoles have been presented and detailed, it is apparent that some of these machines aren’t quite up to par with what we were hoping. With the Xbox One’s VHS looking design and greedy downloading charges and the lack of a console appearance at all with the PS4, it seems that the next generation of console could leave gamers scrambling toward their PC. However, a small percent of gamers have realized there is currently a next generation console out right now. Nintendo launched the Wii U at the end of last year, and it has been ripped to shreds ever since. Although others very much enjoy the experience of the console, many fail to see the creative and witty machine Nintendo has released. In addition with the lack luster performance of the other console companies, it is essential to present what the Wii U has done right for the next gen gamers.
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.
They sell gimmicks pretty well
Im surprised you can make an article out of this title because I honestly can't think of anything.
Wii U's done plenty right. I feel like people are expecting of what the Wii U will be 2 or 3 years down the road in it's first year. In do time, Wii U will be a great console with a wide breadth of games....and it will be awesome. :)
I think the Wii U is fantastic! MIiverse alone is a giant step in the right direction for Nintendo. Besides communication the tactile function of being able to draw or write hand written notes makes the whole experience of an online community much more interesting. Remember these are the same guys that invented friend codes! Can not wait for tomorrow! It truly is a great time to be a Nintendo fan and Wii U owner!
I think thus far e3 has been good, but the way people made it sound was that both Sony and Microsoft would show games that just blow the WiiU out the water! And I'm not so sure that we saw that from either companies games...
