If this true I will be a guaranteed buyer.
They didn't "fail". Agreeing to EA deal would have been failing. They are better off without them. Hell, I say they should ban EA from releasing anything on their console because of the way they sabotaged its launched with those terrible ports.
Crysis is a mediocre FPS just like its predecessors. I would not have bought even if the Wii U version surpassed the PC version.
What Nintendo needs are "good" games. It has plenty of those on t...
Crysis 3 isn't a miss for anyone.
I find it it funny how people ignore this and praise defend Sony for not providing backwards compatibility, but I bet money that if the Wii U "didn't" and Sony did then those same people would be making the BIGGEST deal about it and praising Sony for it while bashing Nintendo.
Basically, on this site, something is only a problem if its not done by Sony, and okay if it is.
I've seen to many people brag about how the PS4 having higher specs m...
No, any contradiction isn't seen as hate. Constantly promoting and only focusing on negative news, dismissing all good news and embracing negative rumors without question is hate.
People have made few "contradictions" regarding the Wii U(do you even know what that word means?). I'm pretty sure people know the different between hating/bashing, and contradicting which doesn't even make sense in the way that you are using it.
You do know that the the Wii U sold more in its launch window than the PS3/360 did in the same time frame, right?
If that's not great, then the 360/PS3 must have been abysmal.
The price point things is ridiculous because it will still be cheaper than both of them.
As it stands, there is only one things hold Wii U sales back. That is lack of actual games.
Games start dropping this month. There will be a guaranteed jump in sales this as result.
Software moves hardware. That has never changed and probably never will.
Actually, the Wii U has higher res textures than the other 2 just like ME3, but other than that, it wasn't much better.
People are so fast to jump a negative conclusion when the Wii U is involved and they never want to check all of the facts. In fact, it actually seems like they want to suppress details and other possibilities.
The gaming community makes me bow my head in shame sometimes. I've never seen people "want" something bad to happen to a company so much as I see now. The resentment is ridiculous.
Last I checked, ZombiU was the best selling third party game on the console. It was made in less than a year so it couldn't have cost that much. Also, it was a release game so it will be selling until the end of the console life cycle 5-6 years from. The thing that people forget is that games on Nintendo's hardware have long shelf lives like Skylanders and Lego Batman.
Red Steel and Red Steel 2 also ultimately made a profit. Wii games only needed around 150-300k to br...
Well of course you think this. You don't like Nintendo.
The console being sold at $300 is being sold at a loss. It worth more than what they are already charging regardless of whether or not you like what its offering. If you think it is lacking while being sold at a loss then I question your ability reason.
How can a controller that has the same button layout as ever other controller, + a mic, + a camera, + an HQ touchscreen, + NFS capability, +panoramic...
They certainly didn't help by pushing back Rayman Legends.
I find this hilarious. This is pure negative news and the overwhelming opinion of N4G is that they "hope" its true. On the other hand, people were overwhelmingly calling the claim that PSN games were not backwards compatible, that had a rumor label forced on it by a mod temporarily, was unlikely(even though it had already been confirmed as fact everywhere).
That is how much more Nintendo is hated than any other company and how biased people are against it in favor o...
That is one hell of an irrelevant conclusion.
No one knew the names or release dates for the PS4/720 when the Wii U release date was announced.
Price drop alone is all that raised 3DS sells.
I know a lot of people with a 3DS but most of them have few to no first party games. I bought the 3DS but it wasn't for the first party titles either.
It was strictly for the third party which is strong on the 3DS. First thing I got was Resident Evil Revelations and Ghost Recon, then later Code of Princess and Harvest Moon. I will eventually get Fire Emblem though when it stops selling out everywhere and I ca...
Bollocks. Complete rubbish. The reason no one is discussing it right now is because there is nothing to discuss. Only one game came out retail in the last 2 months and it was a terrible PS3/360 port that didn't even get a hard copy.
When games like Monster Hunter 3G Ultimate HD, Wonderful 101, Monoliths X, Shin Megami Tensei X Fire Emblem and Bayonetta 2 drop, there will be something to discuss and people will start picking up more consoles.
The rhetoric...
Another things is that there hasn't been much software related retail in the past few month.
Its a natural dropped ie. no games to buy, not a preferential drop,ie because people aren't interested.
The Wii U needs only software. Monster Hunter 3 and Lego Undercover come out this month. I guarantee that there will be a huge spike in sells at the end of the month as well.
No More Heroes is Suda 51's greatest hit and still his best selling "single"(not counting other platforms sells) game to date.
Madworld, made a profit, it just wasn't immediate. It sold a lot over time and so did Red Steel 2. It also made a profit in the end.
The Conduit is the only game on your list that didn't do well on the Wii and it was far from mature or good.
Wii games only needed around 200-300k to make a profit...
They do when its good. Most "good" third party games made a profit on the Wii.
I don't get it. Why is every business that offers a temporary deal on the Wii U such big news?
