Elliot Zeichner argues that even though Nintendo's E3 presentation was predictable, it holds promise.
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.
From article; "Nothing original was shown at nintendo's E3 presentation"
Only DK in a brand new and original game for wiiU with more immersive barrel blasting at diff angles.
bayonetta = new wiiU gamepad original touch gameplay mechanics that really work.
smash bros = megaman now in smash
viewtiful 101 = special and original wiiU gamepad
pikmin 3 = player is now able to aim the pikmin on certain creature body parts where the pikmin will stick to like back, chest, head, feet even monsters eyeballs.
mario kart 8 = players can now ride the sides of walls with original design of the tires as they transform inward to allow gliding of walls.
mario 3D world = mario has new cat suit also green pipes are now clear and introduce a brand new original inward pipe gameplay.
pokemon x y = pet the pokemon talk to them spend time with them in a more personal level face to face and watch them grow diff.
etc etc
Leave Wii U alone....it's not a sprint, it's a steady pace. Even MS would tell you that!
None of that is entirely original/good. They didn't fail but they get a sad face on their report.
all the hate nintendo is getting yet they announced more games for this year then anyone else. and not just games. big titles coming this year. mario, dkc, wonder101, zelda, wii fitu, pikmin. all first party and all this year. not to mention the 3rd party games coming. wiiu is kinda loaded with quality this holiday. if they can advertise it right thy should do very well in the holidays.
honestly the only highlight for me was Mega Man in super smash bros. other than that everything else meh.
