That is true. Nothing screams YOU MUST BUY ME.
But NSMBU blew me away. I was expecting rehashed NSMB2. But , no , Nintendo pushed the boat out and trust me , this is the best 2D Mario Game since the SNES era.
The Beautifull visuals , The story and playcoins , Challenge mode , Boost Rush mode , Block assist mode , Miiverse integration.
the game gets about a 9.2/10 from me :) .
Honestly, if any of you guys are thinki...
Well said sir. This article doesn't actually mean anything at all. Average score ? so that's including Ben 10 , Cabellas Hunts and ESPN sports connection?
If you take all of the shovelware out of the equation (which there was a small amount) the wiiu has one of the best launch line ups in history.
NSMBU- Amazing , not what you expect
Nintendo Land , Really fun , Looks incredible , great with friends
ZombiU- 76/100 Metacritic sam...
@ Hatsune Miku again.
Why can't people just have a mature attitude towards gaming?
I want The big three to thrive against each other , I don't hate Sony , Microsoft or Nintendo they're trying to make money by providing entertainment... :/
Ok so the wiiu will be the weakest 8th gen console (excluding the OUYA) That will firce developers to focus on Gameplay and artstyle and innovative use of the Gamepad.
Somethi...
@Hatsune Miku
WHO THE HELL WAS EVEN TALKING ABOUT WIIU?
People like you are the scum of the entire Gaming world. An immature embarassment to all sensible gamers.
If you dislike the wiiu , fine , we get it , but don't keep hammering on about like anyone cares about what you think.
The wiiu is a brand new console , give it a year and a half to prove its self , you know?
When the xbox 360 first came out ...
Resident evil revelations and Kid icarus uprising. The 2 most visualy appealing games of 2012. Nuff said....
That's right hater , you press that disagree button. Even though I am the winner with the Wiiu and Ps3 and 360 and 3ds and PC.
And I will have wiiu , 720 and Ps4 stood next to each other whilst you're crying about the wiiu's tech specs LOL.
Pikmin 3 , Bayonetta 2 , Rayman Legends , Lego City , Wonderfull 101 , Monolith softs Game , Smash bros U , Aliens colonial marines , and everything that's already out and will be anounced.
Exciting developing Wonderfull 101 and Bayonetta 2 exclusively for wiiu..
The only games I am buying on PS3 or xbox until 720 and ps4 come out are MGSGZ , GTAV , Revengance rising (maybe) and the last of us.
Everything else will be bought on PC , Wiiu and 3DS respectively. Just the fact that the xbox 360 is 7 years old makes it nigh impossible for me to buy anymore games.
The wiiu may not be a huge leap from last gen , but it IS brand new and it will be supported for the next 5-6 years. And the Gamepad controlls are awesome :)
Nintendo Directs are the bomb! So good :) Hope Nintendo keeps on doing them for a long time. My biggest suprise this year was the unveiling of the 3DSXL during a Nintendo direct.
Now my 3DSXL and Wiiu stand side by side forming the ultimate Gaming Brotherhood.
Xbox 360 has been given to a charity shop , Ps3 has been sold , Wii has been given to little cousin .
Now time to choose between Xbox 720 and ps4 to join the brotherhood.
@commenters below.
No , I mean Monolith soft will deliver a game that will single handedly re invigorate JRPG's. That's actually what Xenoblade Chrociles has already done. But this time with the Amazing graphics of the wiiu being pushed and the awesome Convenience and Remote play that the Gamepad brings.
BTW - Remote Play on the gamepad is why everyone needs to own a wiiu. It feels like owning the most powerfull handheld of all time LOL!
You guys who don't want the wiiu are the ones missing out bra's.
I have Nintendo Land , NSMBU , ZombiU , Scribblenauts , all absoloutly FANTASTIC games.
NSMBU being the biggest suprise of the bunch , it's a must own for any gamer , wait until you sit down and play with it.... WOW
I also Have AC3 , BLops 2 , SASRT , TTT2 , Trine 2 DC , Nano assault.
It's a rock solid (one of the best) launches ever imo.
...
100% Disagreed. Wiiu is 100% awesome. It's just launched , give the console time to grow lol.
You guys are stupid . When pikmin 3, Monster Hunter Ultimate,Bayonetta 2, Rayman legends are all on wiiu you gunna be missing out.
Your loss , not ours :)
Wiiu is awesome IMHO.
Why are you people so threatened by the wiiu ? You do know the wiiu is a real 8th Generation console right ? You guys are the same IDIOTS who try to proclaim the Ouya is a next gen console , even though it runs an Nvidia Tegra chip , similar to those found in Brick Nokia's lol.
The wiiu has a much more advanced GPU , More Graphics RAM which means it can have much more higher quality effects and detail and fit more of them on the screen that Last gen consoles.
<...
Monolith will squeeze some juice out of the wiiu and make a game that wakes the industry up :). One that will be so good , a ton of people will rush out and buy a wiiu for it and change their tune lol...
Steambox will not be a big success in my opinion. I mean can anyone tell me , is this thing even gunna have boxed games and a disc drive ? can it run any pc game ? is it just therefore a PC made by valve ? Is it gunna be in gamestores alongside the big 3 ?
I can honestly see it selling about 7 million (if that) in its lifetime and being an extremely nieche device. I mean if people on PC's can play with people on their steambox , that basically renders the steambox irrel...
The gamepad is awesome. It's the most expensive and glorious controller ever made. The pro controller is super comfy aswell and litteraly lasts for weeks on one charge.
The gamepad is way better than any controller before it IMHO. I can't even pick up a dual shock or a 360 controller now , they just feel empty...
Nintendo does not shove anything down your throat. it's up to the consumer to buy the product.
Call of duty on wiiu runs PERFECTLY on multiplayer and for the most part in the campaign. Allthough I have found my wiiu to be slightly ''moody'' SOmetimes a certain campaign missions runs like a knife through butter. Other times it stutters and the stutters coincide with the Noises coming from the wiiu.
The wiiu version (imho) is the definitive version. ALl of my ps3 and 360 loving friends have even admited that the dual screen Multiplayer offered by the wiiu...
Well all the sony and Microsoft fanboys can suck a dik now. ''ZOMG the wiiu version of batman is 2 frames slower''
Writing a console because of launch ports.
Well look At ME3 on ps3 , A game on a 6 year old optimized console still peforms like shit....
@Mad jedi
Listen , I am not just as bad as Hatsune Freeku , because I'm not the one who feels the urge to start bashing a games console that I don't like , like some sort of horrible spoilt child.
The wiiu will do fine , More than hold its own against Sony and Microsoft. The graphics might be better on the 720 and ps4 , significantly better , but if you're a gaming purist , you probably know by now that gameplay is much more important than Gr...
