After the launch of the GameCube it was seen as the last console that Nintendo released that that was on par or more powerful in raw power. Since then Nintendo has opted for more lower tech home consoles and handhelds. Replacing the idea of powerful consoles and introducing more innovation into their hardware. We look into why Nintendo has decided to do this in a couple key areas.
FuRyu revealed on Friday its Exstetra fantasy role-playing game is getting an HD remaster that will launch this summer on Steam.
The Wii is now a retro console. Let’s get nostalgic about an often maligned system.
Crazy to think the WII is to the Switch 2, as the NES was to the WII back then. 20 Year difference.
My wife asks me to bust it out (heh) everyone once in a while to play bowling and tennis with the kids. There was a ton of slop on it but some good stuff as well.
Wii was great but boy howdy did it cause Microsoft to go on a dark walk with the Kinect and the disastrous XBox One launch that they arguably never recovered from.
Not nostalgic for me.. I was there.. anyone who wasnt a little kid realized it was a gamecube with shit tacked onto it, it was the "joke" system and was well below even the switch in terms of comparing it to the latest machines at the time. The machine was well loved by young people and "casual gamers" who now remember it 20 years on, or in most cases more of its sales came in the 15-20 years ago range not right at launch- but again its not nostalgic for people who were "gamers" then really, just for those who ended up with one in their house, the games , graphics, interface and online features were archaic already in 2006.

I'm not seeing the low tech.... the ps4 and the next xbox aren't going be these gun hoe systems you guys think there going be. Some of you keep trying to compare consuls to computers which is a flawed mistake as well. They don't build consuls to compete with computers. The future of consuls is all about ram and don't expect 8 gigs of it. Consuls aren't going be super computers as this next gen takes off and its safe to say the wii u specs are fine moveing forward imo.
Profit. Smart model. whach how much the other 2 systems will cost. lol then let me hear people going on about more power.
Because Nintendo don't want to give their money that's why they make cheap consoles and selling it on high price
more money in my pocket
