Bitmob - The industry has commonly referred to Nintendo's upcoming Wii U as the first of the next-generation consoles; however, this moniker is up for much speculation in light of the current console market.
Up until this point, the market has been able to accommodate three home consoles. Much like the previous generation's PlayStation 2, GameCube, and Xbox, assuming that this trend will continue in light of Sony's, Nintendo's, and Microsoft's respective past success is not a stretch.
If you need a new place to plant parsnips and meet new townsfolk, you might want to look at these games like Stardew Valley.
I wish Marvelous ported (or remade) Story of Seasons: Trio of Towns to current consoles and PC.
It's still the most polished game in the Harvest Moon/Story of Seasons series.
Former Nintendo of America staffer talks about concerns the company had about Hyrule Warriors and it damaging the Zelda brand.
ScreenRant's Stephen Tang writes, "The Elder Scrolls 6 won't be releasing for a while, and in the meantime, the modding community has been making Skyrim into a next-gen game."
That’s just laughable to me. I think they’ve squeezed all they can out of an 12 year old game
"Easily" because they see mods, says the gamer. To heck with licensing, terms agreements conditions, etc. all you need to do is belive in mods. Yeah, so real superficial BS yo.
Do people not want to play a new game? Like, I’d rather see 6 than just a prettier version of a game we’ve been playing since the 360/PS3 gen…
I don't want a next-gen version of a game I've already played to death. Skyrim was a great game, but I'm over it.
Jeez, ANOTHER one of these articles?
Yes it is. It's a console generation after the Wii which was released about five years ago.
Yes, the wii was 5 years ago. And you can't judge what generation a console is in by it's power. If that was the case, then the PS1 wouldn't be in the same gen as N64.
Yes. Its releasing after Wiihas more power tha PS3 or 360 ( probably 2-3 times). And it has new controls scheme, online interface and developer who haven't even bothered with Nintendo in ages. They sooner we all accept it, the sooner we can get to games.
If your so butthurt that WiiU is a few times more powerful than 7 year old console disagree. Just realize your disagreeing with the developing like EA, Epic, Crytek and Vigil and Level 5 who said so. Keep living in your fanboy fantasy...
By the time the Wii U will launch it will be six years since the Wii's launch. A console generation isn't defined by the power of a console, but rather the consoles release after the previous one.
So, the Wii U is the first next gen console.
ppl just love to get the fanboys all fired up lol
