Dang, nintendo just snatched up serious indy cred.
Not to mention oddworld AND strangers wrath HD. Hell yeah.
Nope. Not even close. It's just at its slowest point. As long as mario Kart 8 and smash brothers is coming, Wii U is gonna be just fine. Anyone saying otherwise is exercising wishful thinking.
No worries, they'll price drop just before the ps4 and xbone hit shelves. I'm guessing 250
Nintendo makes more new IPs than their competitors
2006: Wii Sports, Drill Dozer, Electroplankton, Chibi Robo, Elite Beat Agents, Excite Truck (debatable revival of old IP that is different than 80′s installments)
2007: Wii Play Hotel Dusk, Professor layton
2008: Wii Fit, Wii Music, Art Style series which consists of dozens of games that are all new IPs in their own right, Fossil Fighter, Endless Ocean
2009: Rhythm Heaven
2010: Art Academy, Glory of Her...
I know too many 25-35 year olds who play and love nintendo games for this to be true. I myself am a 30 year old man who loves smash brothers. Been sayin it for years, people who think this think that what games they play are a measure of their maturity. When games for actual mature adults are more about unwinding after a long workday. Those games we play can be violent shooters or fun and goofy games. All I know is I play more Nintendo games with my girlfriend than any other games.
No for tons of reasons. Clearly you only know dreamcast as the console that failed. So that's your go to for comparisons because you're not terribly knowledgeable about the actual history of dreamcast.
Breaks down to this:
It is impossible for wii u to go the way of the dreamcast.
Nintendo has tons of money to keep the console going.
Sega had 4 failures under its belt by the time dreamcast rolled around. Game Gear, 32x, sega C...
Yeah, wii U is missing the blockbuster it needs to get going. It at least had a decent go, not the best but a decent go at it's start. 3 million is still pretty good. I'm not sure if it'll ever get the best 3rd party support next gen. But shit. I gotta see what Nintendo does with HD graphics.
1 thing that could turn things around though. If the cost of developing at the graphics level of xbone or ps4 becomes too much. Then there is a possiblity that the 3rd partie...
Yeah, where's the Nintendo exclusive hd games category? I don't see that anywhere in this breakdown.
It does suck, I just wish i could let nintendo know I'd pay for comprehensive cross game online. Luckily the quality of the games they release makes me feel a bit better. They contribute considerably to gaming. I give em a pass for their considerable innovation record and the fact they will do it again.
I will refuse to hate Nintendo. They just do their own thing and that's just nintendo for every bad decision they'll make 3 awesome ones.
Minecraft is being sold on discs now?
When upside down they do become inverted only because the kart is upside down. Feels like it's steerling like a car would. The random injection of the hang glider segments and that made it feel really frantic. I seriously want Kart for holiday season and not mario 3d world.
I got to see it played at best buy saturday. It's definitely not mario galaxy 3 but it is the kind of revamp new super mario brothers needed. The way 3d lands levels were laid out are awesome for multi player. there's lots of room for everyone to do their own thing. Plus the bosses are not the SMB3 re do's i've been accustomed to in the series. their far more in the imaginative style of galaxy. seeing it go really changed my outlook on the game. I played mario Kart 8. So fuck...
Shhh, don't let this guy know 3ds is doin pretty awesome right now and that a new pokemon is coming out this year. He'll keep this crap up, dragging down nintendo's stock price. Then I'll pounce and make a fortune.
Well the person who buys it is gonna be real lucky down the line. You musta sold your vita forever ago then I'm guessing. Don't even give consoles a whole year before you abandon? Well at least if you're selling those things you'll have more than enough for a 3DS. It's the best gaming device right now. I give it a high recommendation. I'm sure the person who buys your wii U will greatly profit from your knee jerk reaction to e3.
Oh man, only on day 1? It takes a whole week before you get even close to obtaining the good stuff. Protip: get the fortune cookie and turn it in every day. I threw my first fortune out not realizing all fortunes are lucky tickets.
Nah, once you go there all cell phones and ipads become dedicated gaming devices. That's a portable computer that also does gaming really. In reality, it's good nintendo owns that market because it allows them to produce great things like Fire emblem, pokemon and animal crossing. It also helps keep nintendo in business so they can do the crazy experiments they do.
Well, that's why the movies aren't as good as the multiplayer.
What a fool this author is. Without nintendo the franchise was already dead. Now it gets one more chance under Nintendo publishing. Not to mention this article has the argumentative sense of the comments section of N4g. 3 basic arguments with a self satisfactory, poorly edited paragraph backing it up. All I know is Monster hunter 3U did well... maybe bayonetta will be next to see some good sales.
Nothing special other than Nintendo developing high grade HD games is all. Played MK8 at best buy today, 60 fps, crystal clear graphics. Freaking beautiful. The drifting works great too even with motion controls. I was surprised.
Smash Brothers was a new IP and Yes, Mario Kart 64 did help n64 as it was a launch title. Different times man. Now those are two of nintendo's biggest ips. So yeah, wishful thinking.
