They are not making money on the Wii u hardware
If you are saying that you did not read the article and yet you are being that critical of it, then you are showing a great deal of ignorance. Do yourself a favor and read the article - personally I don t think Nintendo should go third party , but if I ever change my mind it would be for the type reasons that were very well expressed in this article.
This is a very well written piece and well worth the read regardless of what you think you know - There are dozens of poo...
Rayman on the PS3 outsold it on the Wii u
You can try to blame 3rd party dev s all you want but it is Nintendo s console and their responsibility. Nintendo knows it is their responsibility to provide an environment that will attract 3rd party games. Based on results (both sales and the number of quality 3rd party games skipping the Wii u), it does not appear Nintendo has made it a priority to attract 3rd party games to the Wii u whatsoever.
As far as the quality of the 3rd party game s that have come to the Wii ...
The Letter is on the main page of the Mii-verse when I turned on my Wii U tonight - what is the world coming to???
With or without the mustache???
I m thinking a petition to make Sonic a dog is the way to go- maybe a Bassett Hound
What if changing Link makes a lot of people unhappy? How do you weigh that? Are you saying the happiness of those that might want a female link for sincere reasons ( which is a far lower number than those pretending to care) is more important than those that want Link to keep his gender the same as when he was created/born?
What incentive would anyone have to fund a kick starter type campaign for a game like this one or the letter- Since the game sells for about 50cents?
The article is clickbait- it left off the following tweets when hear aisles the Wii u and said he was joking
Why not make Sonic a dog and Samus androgynous?
Heck why have men and women I'm video games at all- why have anyone play as someone they are uncomfortable with?? Make all video game characters asexual and colorless
If Link is saved by Zelda or becomes a woman I would find another game
Who says we don t get 3rd party exclusives - just look at the Letter-
Seriously though the guy is trying to do another game so he is obviously making money off the letter- there is no doubt in my mind the game is nothing more than a scam and should not be supports even as a joke- or will just encourage more of the same
The next thing we know we ll be seeing Zygna games on the e shop
If i m Microsoft, this may be 1 situation where i wished the game was not coming to the 360 - if it had been only next gen plus PS3 it might have helped sell a few more x1's if it turns out to be a really good game-
They delayed Dk last year because they had nothing till MK8 so they needed to lessen the gap between releases- Maybe they are doing the same w Captain Toad- probably means Smash bros won t get delayed but ,at also mean all the "2015" releases will be back loaded and I would bet more than 1 or 2 of those will push to 2016
Re the Wii games don t we still have to use the Wii mote, point it at the game pad Etc like it is a tv as appossed to using the gamepad controls?
I love off tv play but having to use an external controller w the game pad for Wii games is a no go for me- OR did they fix that and I missed? I hope they have or do fix it otherwise there may as well not be off tv play for Wii games
The Wii u outsold the xb1 (by a very slim margin) for 2 months after it's biggest system seller was released- that does not translate to "every month" - Otherwise the xbox has outsold the Wii u since it's release including this year
You would absolutely buy a Xb1 or a PS4 over a Wii u if you have interest in multi plat games - Multi plats sell both xbox and playstation . Multi plats are one of the biggest reasons people decide not to buy a Wii u
I only own a wiiu and had hopes based on thier promise of more 3rd party games this generation that we would have a better selection this time around - there are many high 3rd party games my household will miss out on because they will not be coming to the Wi...
Why would someone criticize a console they don t own - unless it is over industry changing issues like DRM? I critisize Nintendo/Wii u because I own a Wii u and 3ds and want to do a better job so they will continue to provide the Nintendo experience fore years to come and create enough revenue to invest in more games
Xbox sold more software than the ps3 last generation and if you include digital sales they almost surely sold more software than the Wii last gen- so to say their sales numbers weren't t as legit as Sony s or Nintendos is not backed up by any real evidence
I only own Nintendo consoles but depending on the metrics used, the Xbox easily makes a case as last generations winner - considering it was only their 2nd generation they have been impresive up to their 3rd generati...
Eventually XB1 will outsell the Wii u and in the end it will not be close
Both consoles have struggled so far but XB1 has 3rd party support and an exec team that has already shown they wil not sit back and do little or nothing while their sales don t meet expectations - Nintendo did very little until the latest e3 to help their cause and even then they addressed issues that should have been addressed at launch or close - once the games start rolling in for XB1 and PS4 they ...
