Dustin Spencer from Capsule Computers writes: "One of Nintendo's greatest successes of last generation was Wii Sports. Yeah, it was just a simple compilation of mini-games, but each showed off what the Wii could do in terms of motion control - and lets face it, those little games are still ideal to whip out when company comes over due to their simple yet fun nature. With the Wii U, Nintendo had to have a successor to the franchise. Nintendo Land is that game that serves the role of introducing new Wii U owners to the Gamepad, as well as the entire console in general. Instead of just using Miis and unknown characters, this compilation embodies the essence of Mario, Zelda, Metroid, and several other massive franchises - which have all been glued together into one fantasy theme park that is able to be explored and somewhat customized. Is Nintendo Land the dream resort for fans, or does this launch title prove to be one locale worth skipping? Let's find out?"
Nintendo will be shutting down the eShop for the 3DS and Wii U completely in 2023. Makes sure to check out these games before they do.
If they're not important enough to be held on their own official storefront then they're not important enough to give your money to Nintendo.
Buy these, physically, used or simply emulate them.
This article comes off as nothing more than advertising games that Nintendo, themselves, don't care to offer you... buy now!
Wait hang on where all the outrage? I swear when Sony tried to do this with PS3 last year. There was outrage from all corners of the gaming universe.
Why does no one care Nintendo is doing it?
There has been.
A lot of it.
Simply type in "3DS" in Google and tell me what you see.
Oh I have a fair few websites reporting on it. But where is the outcry on here? I remember their was 2-3 approved top voted articles when Sony announced they where closing the PS3 store. All slating them and not caring about customers.
I should of worded it better. Where is all the outrage on n4g?
N4G is a fanboy site, mainly frequented by only Sony.
Microsoft is their direct competition, so you'll typically only see articles that are made to rile up those fanbases.
Nintendo does it's own thing, so they're rarely brought up, aside from their fans. The most you get is the same typical two or three posters claiming Nintendo is only for infants.
If you come to N4G for educated discourse and reasonable discussion, this isn't the place. Sad as it is.
It's lame that it is shutting down. Now I feel rushed buying all the rpgs I missed out on the system.
You guys know that even archive.org has 3DS roms, and all other console roms. I'm downloading 846GB of 3DS roms and will add the best games to my soon to be soft modded New 3DS 😁. Might as well throw in DS and other emulators in there to. Guys this would be the best way to play and enjoy the 3DS. Just need to buy a bigger micro SD card and format it to FAT32, which you can if it's even 256GB or larger there are ways.
This should help if you want to soft mod it excellent guide and up to the latest and probably last 3DS firmware update: https://www.youtube.com/wat...
Xbox Snap, Game Boy Micro… we miss them all.
The Wii U had a bunch of great games that a lot of people didn't get a chance to play, so here are the Wii U ports gamers would like to see come to Switch.
I just replayed Super Mario 3D world and loved every minute of it. I really like how it looks and it is great fun to play, it surely has to be a strong candidate for a Switch remaster although, personally, I would love a Galaxy 1&2 remaster more than anything else
I want a wii u just to play this game!
My question is, is this better than Wii Sports which was bundled with the Wii when it was released? Seems like it simply because of all of the Nintendo worlds but I'm still curious.
