@Hisiru i feel the exact same way.. i've been reading about all these AAA titles coming for PS360 and want to play them BAD. Between Tomb Raider, Bioshock infinite, metal gear & etc. i'm just about ready to buy an 8-y-o console that will be outdated in a half year's time (i generally only buy nint. consoles). Nintendo needs to start investing in their future by partnering with more third party studios RIGHT NOW because in the future i doubt the wii u hardware will be capable o...
Nintendo needs to start shelling out some $$$ for third party games or buy more studios if they really want to pursue serious gamers.
I would LOVE to see some sort of music capability for this console. Seems like a pretty basic feature that nintendo overlooked.
i hope so.. i would definitely purchase something like that.
i hope so.. i would definitely purchase someyhing like that.
I can't tell you how refreshing it is to read an article about console competition on n4g that is informed by real numbers and FACTS. You have granted me a momentary reprieve from the hyperbole, and for that, we thank you.
Booooo
i'd be interested in some hardware accessories. A Wii U signal extender would be fantastic. I bet it would increase the appeal of off TV play as well.
OK, I read the article. It is very fair and balanced. I made the previous statement prematurely. Great, thoughtful writer of this particular. The headline is still definitely a bit of a hit-generator, but nonetheless.. I recommend the content therein.
Yeah.. Haven't looked at the article yet but based on the sensationalistic headline, I'd like to say "buy now, play now!!!"
With the best version of COD BLOPS 2, an HD Mario, an AC3 with off-tv play, miiverse, an eshop lpaded with games, and the best Internet browser on the console market, there is no way that the wii u will be a purchase that yields 0 entertainment value.
I commend earlier articles that read "stop wii u doom and gloo...
I understand that it is a remake. I can't wait to play it :)
I could be mistaken, but didn't Aonuma also suggest that the Wii U Zelda would be going with an art direction similar to Wind Waker? From the article I read: "He discussed Nintendo's new visual approach for the game, which apparently is completely unlike the HD demo shown at E3 2011, but wasn't ready to be shown at this time. Aonuma noted this still-mysterious "new style" developed as...
I should preface this by saying that I was impressed by the Nintendo Direct today and appreciate Nintendo's effort to improve communication with their customers.
I have never played Wind Waker, but I have played almost every console Zelda ever created and a number of handheld versions. I was THRILLED when I saw the tech demo of a new,HD, more realistic version of Zelda at E3 2012. That demo was one of the main reasons I bought a Wii U at launch. I might be eating my words...
c'mon guys! we all know it should be called the Xbox 360 U. Confusing the consumer is the trend these days, no?
Here's hoping it comes to wii u as well!
I think Nintendo TVii is a great example of how getting to market first isn't always best. The honest truth is that there is only so much you can do without a TV tuner built right into the console. Even if the UI hiccups are fixed and the software becomes more intuitive, the end result is still going to be the same: once you finish navigating and (hopefully easily) find something to watch, the gamepad is going to send simple IR transmissions (like a channel number) to a third party set-to...
clever article idea, but too little content. a future installment with more developers could be a hit.
I hope you're wrong. In fact, i'm pretty sure you are. The UI for most applications is downright gorgeous, and miiverse is simply awesome.
Don't get me wrong, the os has it's flaws. Load times first and foremost. Also, the apps need to be more intuitive and have more options. Miiverse, for example, needs some type of preferential listing of communities that's more accessible and a forum-type area for specific-topic discussions. The eshop layout needs to ...
Great article. I agree with pretty much everything the author has pointed out.
Let's hope that once Nintendo have worked out all of the bugs in this new system, they start marketing it properly.
TVii is coming tomorrow, but with limited functionality: it will be missing access to both your DVR and Netflix. This is a real disappointment considering that these were the two most appealing features to me. Apparently they are having trouble working with cable providers (no surprise there).
That said, the Netflix app still will fill that need and the other Apps (namely miiverse and the internet explorer) continue to satisfy me. Pair that with faster load times and a more ...
To which delay are you referring? The first? Or the second? LoL
