Now that the launch is over, the downloads and updates have long been acquired, and launch titles have been beaten. Wiiuonly.com's "King of Video Games" takes a look back at his first 60 days with Nintendo's newest console.
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.
the rumoured specs of the ps4 is about 12 times the power of the wii u so far so the title of this article shouldnt really be about the first 2 months of the wii u but a eulogy for the wii u.
there arent any games in sight worth talking about for wii u and if you consult a nes fanatic about the wii u all theyll say like nintendo atomotons is " WAIT TILL ZELDA, MARIO, METROID, SMASH BROTHERS " or some other tired franchise is out. nothing is wrong with the franchises but they are always way behind in tech and such simplified in graphics, controls and all sorts for kids and casuals.
im a nintendo fan not a fanatic. im a fan of what was once nintendo but the "yes sir nintendo" fanatics ruined nintendo. they are the ones that would play with a wiimote and say its the best controls of all time but it makes gameplay worse and sluggish or simplified controls. the same people that would say, "power doesnt matter, its all about the games" not realizing that limiting power in systems wont allow for experiences like heavy rain , uncharted or games that realistic environments are needed to evoke certain emotions and such. with a powerful system, you can do realistic games and also less graphical advance games.
fanatics are also doing their rounds already like a propaganda machine. talking about how they cant tell the difference between 720 and 1080p and 1080p is all that is needed so 4k is rubbish. people hear 4k and its like being engulfed in fire because its something wii u and others cant do or focus on and 4k is something being pushed a lot by sony. there will be 4k tvs this year that cost about 5 grand and more consumer friendly by next year.
weak systems like wii u are rubbish when the ps3 and xbox are more powerful. playing bf 3 where every now and then i need to look down to press 3 or 4 to switch between propane, rocket or defibrillator and medical supplies is a pain and representative of lookin down to touch the screen of the wii u pad. i just have to learn how to position my hand better on the keyboard but its no so with wii u where you are forced to do so with a lot of games. people talk about the second screen for wii u like its a positive when its a negative. wii u is rubbish
i cant wait for ps4.
thank you n4g for welcoming me back with open hatred and love. i appreciate you all, fanatics and friends.
I love my u.Its a matter of time b4 the games start rolling in.I own every console and THEY AE FUN NOT POWERFUL.IF YOU WANT POWER GET A PC BECAUSE CONSOLES ARE NOT POWERFUL THIS GEN OR THE NEXT but they are very fun.All you people bashing U are in for a big surprise when PS4 and 720 come out.I will be buying both but for fun and games not power.And again i'm not bashing any console but the word powerful and console dont go together.
Don't hate on Akuma dudes funny without even trying.. most of his post I do agree on especially "there arent any games in sight worth talking about for wii u and if you consult a nes fanatic about the wii u all theyll say like nintendo atomotons is " WAIT TILL ZELDA, MARIO, METROID, SMASH BROTHERS " or some other tired franchise is out." I mean really I've been gaming since the nes and every year Nintendo recycles all their franchises. They have so many good games from the nes and snes they could bring back... But they mainly just focus on those titles mentioned. Like take some damn risks already nintendo, where's the open world pokemon? Where's the Earthbound sequels etc etc etc. Throw in some realistic art style in the games too... There isn't no point of having a hd console if your not going to push it.
lol 12 times more powerful by whose definition..who is going to be making games for that system...get a life silly fanboy...sony is already in last place this generation and losing money left and right especially with that doa psvita....another system costin 500 dollars or more and we can wave goodbye to sony, it will be their last generation.
I like video games. Nintendo included.
