Agreed. I do think it was worth every penny at $350 and tbh, still is, but they need to bring people into the fold who are hesitant. The lower price will draw them in, then once they realize how fantastic the games are (seriously one of the greatest libraries of all time, just fantastic) they'll be waiting customers for the NX.
That's the smart way to play the cards.
Drop price. Reel as many in as possible on lower price tag. Show them how amazing th...
I'm interested, and I think there's a sizable group of others just like me out there.
I like great games. Whether on a TV or handheld I don't care. I just want fun games. And a new platform will offer yet another source of fun games.
I play my 3DS just as much as my Wii U or PS4 or Xbox One. Can't say I play Vita much, or at all anymore for that matter, but 3DS has some PHENOMENAL games and I love playing them in 3D.
I've...
"People die every day get over it"
I truly hope you never have to hear those words when the day comes you lose someone you care about.
Most of us didn't know the man and yet most of us feel like we've lost a friend. A close friend. I wonder if your mother died and I told you "people die every day get over it" how you would feel? Not to put the man on the same level as family, of course not, good it's just an example of how inse...
I feel like he really cared. He REALLY cared about making fun games more than making money. The man refused to lay off employees in hard times and took voluntary pay cuts when times were rough just to help the company
RIP Mr. Iwata.
He was a good man who just wanted to put a smile on the face of everyone who played video games.
And he did exactly that, right up until his final days.
It's real.
Yep just mock and ridicule the console. That's all anybody ever does anyways.
Nobody actually cares about the games it offers, despite the fact they say they like playing video games. Like the unpopular kid at school and everybody still wants to kick him while he's down. When if you weren't such a dick you'd find out he's actually a really cool kid if you got to know him
Very well-thought-out comment.
But the third-party hopes are in vain. The trust doesn't mean anything when the Fanbase doesn't buy the games anyways. They can build a console powerful enough to fly a rocket into space but it still won't change the fact that those types of games don't sell well on the system, and that's the bottom-line of why they don't get ported over.
I really hate the term gimmick because to me, a gimmick is day one ...
At least Nintendo home consoles have fun games
And it would have boring controls typical of PC, Xbox One and PS4.
In fact the game couldn't even exist because it's developed around the second screen.
I don't know about you but dressing up the visuals certainly doesn't sound worth giving up all that.
Uncharted Collection no online Sony, sorry fail.
The Order 1886 no online Sony, sorry fail.
Let's just start creating a big list of every game that doesn't have online and call it a failure
Because real, actual gamers that seek out fun and exciting games wherever they might be are a dying breed.
Nobody cares about fun games anymore.
Will find any reason in the world to not buy the system- usually "it doesn't have 3rd party games"
But wait! If you already have those games on your PS4, what the hell difference does it make if those same games are on Wii U? Were you planning on buying them a second time?
Didn't think so.
So the truth of the matter is those games are irrelevant anyways- Wii U always has been and still is, worth it for the games that are on...
@Iceman_Nightmare
There will be a lack of third-party support regardless of power. The reason they didn't care about making a powerful system is because they knew the third parties wouldn't bring their games anyways, because NO ONE BUYS THEM.
And I'm sure the console will die, but not before 5 good years on the market and an armada of great games to play
Um HELLO!
Donkey Kong Country Tropical Freeze is better than even the great Mario! And DKC Returns, and the original DKC trilogy on SNES.
All miles better than that crap they have listed. Rayman Legends and Origins was good though.
Yep, your desire to be scared is what put that set of testicles between your legs.
Bravo.
Playing a game to experience fear isn't my idea of entertainment- anymore than huffing gasoline or beating your head into a brick wall for kicks
Switched my pre order from PS4 to Xbox One.
I go where the games are, and with Fallout 4 you get more game on Xbox One.
600+ comments when it comes to talking trash about Nintendo.
But when you give people an article that's actually about games?
Nobody is interested
I don't know what world you come from, but putting a screen (video games are by definition videos on a screen mind you) on the controller is not a gimmick.
Pre order costume DLC. That's a gimmick.
Nintendo, since the birth of the NES, as always brought something new to the table with each successive generation (barring Gamecube).
Just because it didn't sell well doesn't mean it's a gimmick. Just because it hasn't done ...
No. Just a milestone.
