''Nintendo created a lot of questions last year when they revealed the Wii U. There was confusion to what exactly it was, what its focus was and what was it bringing to the table. E3 2012 proved to be the time that Nintendo would truly address these questions and tell us what the Wii U was all about.
The conference started with a bit of fan service; a tactic Nintendo has used for the last few years. Everyone’s favorite industry icon Shigeru Miyamoto ( we all wish he was our Grandad) took to the stage to reveal Pikmin 3. A great start to the conference which was reflected by the crowds hugely positive reaction. After a brief recap on some of the features of the Wii U a demo began of Pikmin 3 on Nintendo’s latest system.''
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.
Can't wait for Sing ;)
Pretty sure this is a duplicate article.
His body is ready
More like started with a whimper, continues with a whimper.
I was confused about the Wii U last year and underwhelmed with Wii U this year.
SORT IT OUT NINTENDO!
M$ and Sony are coming up with TRUE next gen systems next year...
After seeing usher in the MS conference... sing is welcomed karaoke...
I have to admit the wii board stuff was pretty fun looking. The zombiu was crazy good design for the pad. ubi finally hired some talent yay!
The mini games are pretty addictive though, i like the feel of resort better, nintendo land is too junky but hey DLC nintendo to the rescue!
