I think that's a bit of an exaggeration. I'm sure retailers make some sort of percentage, just probably not a very high one. As for the chip, I know it's a modified model, so it probably costs extra to get it down to unique specifications. Interesting to think about, actually, especially when you consider how other consoles are manufactured.

"No one has any obligation to support anything, listen to anything you say or agree with what you say."

Read the end of the article again. This is about stupid petty feuds, not people disagreeing with each other, let alone over Nintendo products. You're skewing the point I made.

"It's okay to try and make a point but remember the companies don't need you to defend them."

Fair point, and I never said they did. I...

"How long are you going to make the same blog every 2 days about the Wii U section supposedly being worse? Do you even realize that you're doing it?"

Simply put, when you stop providing me the reason to do so. You may not have done so here, but you've been pretty obnoxious to me and to others in the past, not to mention you bury your head in the sand and pretend the negativity I speak of does not exist when I cited real examples of the opposite being true. A...

You trollin'?

I think it's just a thing for fans since Luigi is popular with Mario fans. There are more Mario games than Luigi games coming out this year. To suggest Mario "doesn't cut it" for Nintendo anymore is... actually kind of silly.

I was gonna say, this is pretty late. Not to mention it's a duplicate.

As a system, the Wii U is fine. That "gimmicky controller", is no different than a Vita, sans the rear touch panel and lack of portability.

Its issues lay primarily with its software lineup and its marketing. The most level headed of gamers seem to think so. The only ones who say things like it's "destined to fail" seemed to have no intention to give it a fair shake to begin with.

Not liking the size or bulkiness, but those grips look comfortable.

Sonic Adventure 2, I think, is better than most would give it credit for. It did a lot of neat things with the franchise that unfortunately fell into obscurity with later titles. It was pretty innovative for the time as a 3D platformer. The mix of gameplay styles and the amount of content was pretty stellar. Obviously as a Dreamcast game it was no graphical marvel, and yet it was still visually appealing at the time.

Does the Vita have a feature for playing Vita games on a TV screen (I would assume through the PS3)? I think something like that would be cool for both the Vita and the 3DS.

It would probably make it easier for you to complete quests with someone at a higher level.

True, though supposedly EA's the only company that is making the choice out of spite as oppose to the idea that they cannot make games that will sell on the platform.

The guys doing Dead Island said they could get their new content to run on the platform, but it wasn't worth the endeavor. I assume this was from a financial standpoint, so in that regard I think there is a difference.

@SilentNegotiator

If you would stop attacking people, maybe they wouldn't feel the need to "play the victim." Seriously, what is your problem? You were attacking someone by starting with "You Nintendo fanboys" in a previous article here. You're part of the problem you yourself keep complaining about.

On-topic, this doesn't surprise me. I half expected BF4 to be a 360/PS3 game. But then they may wind up porting it to the future ...

Wii U had some core games on it, albeit ports. Not to mention it already has six core Nintendo franchises announced within its first year, one of which is a remake of a classic Zelda title another one being a Smash Bros. game.

I can understand a non-Nintendo fan not seeing much in the Wii U, but now you're arguing Nintendo fans have no reason to be interested?

I think you're just grasping at straws here.

Jesus Christ, what a piss-fest in these comments. What a community, folks. What a community.

EDIT: This really isn't news guys. A lot of devs have made this choice. Wasn't this to be expected? But no, of course people have to be attacking each other over this shit, as usual.

Whatever. Some good looking games have come out this month for the platform and another one was announced for it. That's good enough for me.

Maybe. Who can say? All I know is I haven't played the game yet. This rendition may be a fine opportunity, especially if it comes with all of the extra content and fixes any potential issues with the original.

I assume she never played the first one then? The original had no checkpoints at all, just save points that were spread rather far apart. If Luigi died, you had to go back to a save point. I imagine a sequel with checkpoints can't be as hard as all that.

"Theyd have to add some gamepad features"

Off-TV play. Problem solved. Plus they can use the download to promote the sequel.

First two months technically. Pretty good for a console of its price tag, but it slowed down exponentially. Most likely due to the lack of games and marketing. Nintendo needs to regain some momentum prior to E3.

Better than an outright cancellation I suppose. Or is it? Hard to tell with this title.

4859d ago 0 agree1 disagreeView comment

Oh absolutely, I agree. I'm just trying understand why they did it.
