yeah, 2.5 million sales in over 3/4 of a year since launching.. That's not a rocky start, that's a disaster for any dev looking to bring their games over to the system. With an install base of 10% of the 3DS, why would a developer not want to put their game on the 3DS where they could get 10X the amount of sales potentially?
Amnesia is a brilliant game! Can't get enough of it.
Ubisoft has said it costs less than 1 million dollars to do a port from 360 to the Wii U. Even if they just ported the 360 version over, you don't think that Rockstar would sell enough copies to make back their 1 million bucks? You're crazy to think that.
ANYTIME I play MW3, BF3 or Halo it is ALWAYS little 12 year old wanna be gangsta's who do nothing but whine and swear when I play on Xbox Live. So stop saying Nintendo is full of kids. Most of the pre-teens...
Glad to see that Nintendo users aren't getting screwed by missing out on some content. Seems like they are giving us the definitive version with all the added content plus some extras.
lol, the author does mention it in the article, but he calls it Skyward Song XD
good list, although I would have put the Metroid Prime Trilogy as a must own for any Wii/Wii U owner. That series is simply a must own, and the fact that you get all 3 in one package with updated wiimote controls for the first two (since they were on Gamecube), what more could you ask for?
shame that you skipped the new Goldeneye. That game was quite good.
yeah, and then they release a $600 console which nobody buys.. If the Vita showed them anything, it's that just because it's more powerful doesn't mean jack $hit..
lol - you think Perfect Dark Zero is groundbreaking? Wow.. Personally if the console on launch day can put out a game that runs 1080p/60 frames per second, then that is a huge accomplishment for a system that devs are barely scraping the surface on. If you compare launch games from the PS360 to games they are putting out now, they are night and day different in terms of visual quality and overall scope. Imagine what developers could do in 2-3 years time once they fully learn how to utilize...
when a game launches simultaneously on all 3 systems and it looks and runs the best on the Wii U, which version do you think will be dubbed the definitive version (PC's aside).
It's funny, all the Sony and MS fanboys used to make fun of the Wii because it had shitty graphics, didn't matter how good the game was. Now the Wii U has better graphics than the PS360, and fanboys still find a reason to hate on it. You guys have to grow up. Oh and if you are waiting ...
I'm excited at the idea of having a TV screen free of clutter because it can all be down in the gamepad, thus making for a more cinematic experience.
Plus new ways to interact with games aren't necessarily a bad thing. It all comes down to how the devs use the device. Sure, they can just slap a minimap there because they are lazy, or they can be like Ubisoft and make different uses for the device.
Sure would be funny to watch all those Sony fanboys who were cursing the Wii U saying "Wait till the PS4 releases next year, it will blow the Wii U out of the water"..
Obviously this doesn't mean anything necessarily, and we could still see the PS4 in the next year or so. But given Sony's financial position and the poor sales of the Vita, I don't see them rushing out anytime soon with a new console that could potentially be overpriced and flop.
man the music in that video was annoying. Definitely didn't go along with the type of video we were watching..
I am glad they recognized Red Steel 2. I have said it time and again, an amazing sequel and definitely worth a play.
Watch Dogs isn't possible on the Wii U? Please explain to me how Black Ops 2 can run on the Wii U in 1080p, but on the all-mighty 360 it runs around 640p which is sub 720p, which is not even HD. It is only made HD due to upscaling - not the same thing. Heck, Microsoft is touting the fact that Halo 4 will run in 720p, wow, that's an accomplishment there. Nobody is doubting the fact that the 720 and PS4 will be more powerful (at a price), but to automatically dismiss the Wii U and m...
The Wii U is still priced lower than what the 360 and PS3 were when they launched.
Everyone wants something for nothing..
wow, amazing how it looks a lot like a Wii U pad..
Then you have other developers like Ubisoft and Black Ops 2 who can push the system to do native 1080p, so again, could just be a bad rushed port. Obviously the code has to be re-written to work with the Wii U architecture, and sometimes developers are lazy. Ubisoft's AC3 looks just as good if not better on the Wii U than on the 360/PS3, so I wouldn't worry too much about that.
That is exactly what the game used to be..
I can't wait for this game. Looks like such good fun! Although I am sure all those fanboys who are still pissed at Platinum for the whole Bayonetta 2 thing will come on here and say that this game looks boring and a complete waste of time.
so in 2 years time when what, 5 million people own Vita's the 3DS will have an install base of what, 50 million?
