Ubisofts Ubidays was held today in Paris, and there was some interesting news here and there. But on the Wii side of things, I don't think Wii could have gotten screwed over anymore then it did.
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.
Dash Rendar, Prince Xizor, the Battle of Hoth, and one of the boldest Star Wars multimedia projects ever made. Here’s why Shadows of the Empire still matters.
This game along with Rogue Squadron got me into to Star Wars. The release of special edition VHS Star Wars collection was perfectly times on top of all that. 😆
But it wasn't. Although I do agree that some of the tie-in media, like the novels and comics, were pretty good.
Still, games like Dark Forces, Jedi Knight, Rogue Squadron, and the space sims were peak 90s Star Wars. Shadows fell flat because of the abysmal controls and unimaginative levels. And if you wanted to really experience the seedy side of the universe, Jedi Knight: Dark Forces 2 was peak, and it wasn't even close.
Regardless, and much to my dismay, we got the better version thanks to Ubislop in Outlaws, which is what Shadows should've been, albeit at a smaller scale.
As a kid me and my cousins loved this game . I have great memories with this one and the Star Wars pod racer game .
Debuting in Season 9, all players can try a beta of The Crew Motorfest’s new ambitious track creator, TrackForge.
Blame it on Nintendo for allowing such filth to ever come to the Wii but then again blame Nintendo for trying to revolutionize gaming this generation! and the blame the people that buy into this crap!
Anybody remember when this

meant something? Of course there has always been crappy games on consoles, but the Wii get's a bad reputation from all the half-assed games made for a quick buck.
Soooo basically the guy is complaining that no hardcore games are going to the Wii from Ubisoft. Is anyone REALLY that surprised?
At least the wii have some great first party titles such as Mario Galxy, Mario Kart, Zelda, Metroid Prime, Mario, Zelda, metroid Prime, and Mario, Zelda and Metroid Prime. hehehehe
I am kidding.
I just don't get it. I understand that you can't take games like Assassin's Creed and Prince of Persia and bring them to Wii do too the technical differences between the 360/PS3 and the Wii. But with all the money they have been making from these crap cash-in games, you think they would take the time to at least try and downgrade and port these titles, or at least give the Wii spin-offs of the hardcore titles.
