You mean the Wii garbage console? We'd all have been better off if that system never released. A cheap fad that fizzled out long before its competition, that tells you all you need to know about its impact on gaming.
There's a reason that this game has an overall 44 score on Metacritic, with "mostly unfavorable reviews"; it's really nothing more than an empty shell of a game, designed to force people to buy amiibo gimmicks. This review excerpt from Metro Games Central sums it up well: "A new low for Nintendo and for Animal Crossing, in what is the least amount of fun you can have with an amiibo without needing urgent medical attention afterwards."
So take this...
This site is nintendoenthusiast.com, a huge pro-Nintendo website. Most of their articles are very supportive of Nintendo. It sounds like you just don't want to hear anything negative about Nintendo, no matter what the source. Pretty lame.
Really, Linkle is a terrible name. It sounds like the Transgender version of Link. Dressing her in Link's costume obviously doesn't help either. What is up with Nintendo and their inability to come up with good names for anything?
It's not a problem, you should just clarify the list in the title or the first paragraph. Actually I was interested in your review of Adventures of Pip, so I checked out some videos. Looks like a great game, and it's on sale now on PSN for $6.00 for PS+ users (through Tuesday morning), so I picked it up. Thanks for the tip on that game.
I agree. You would think that someone reviewing the article before it's approved would have caught that, but the person submitting it was pretty sloppy to not proof the headline himself/herself.
It was obviously a blatant cash grab, trying to force people to buy more Amiibo gimmicks. Too bad they put absolutely no effort into the actual gameplay, on top of that. Total scam of a game.
No, the intro paragraph really doesn't "explain everything". As I said above, if your entire list is only titles out for Nintendo's consoles, then your article should be retitled to indicate that. It's sloppy "journalism" to title your article as you did, very misleading.
That's going to look pretty ugly running on the 3DS ultra low-res 400x240 screen, what a waste of time.
What a ridiculous title for this article. It should have been titled "Top 10 Games on Nintendo Consoles 2015", very arrogant to title it this way when games for all other platforms were left out. Terrible article.
It's a shame that this game was wasted on the Wii U, maybe Platinum learned a lesson and won't repeat this kind of blunder in the future? What were they thinking?
As for the game becoming rare, it won't make much of a difference in the future, since most gamers didn't bother to get a Wii U, and at this late stage in the console's life, it really isn't going to matter.
There's something wrong with this website. When I go to it, it re-routes to " http://test0.com" and has spammy links on it. I'd advise people to avoid clicking on the GLG URL, the site could be infected. Since I'm using an android tablet with good security software installed, it didn't affect me.
You should be embarrassed to bring up the amiibo gimmicks as an argument in favor of Nintendo's gaming expertise. How sad is it that this is all you can come up with to defend their bungled products? How far the mighty Nintendo has fallen when this is all they have left.
Yet every successive generation their consoles sell less and less, and their customer base shrinks. The original Wii is obviously an exception to this trend, but it was clearly a fad, one that fizzled out years ago, when people grew tired of the annoying waggle controllers and sub-HD graphics. The Wii of course died years ago, while the 360 and PS3 continue to get games right up to the present.
You can try to downplay Nintendo's shaky situation all you want, but the reali...
2015 was a terrible year for the Wii U, with very few decent games, but 2016 will be it's last year, with even fewer releases. Thankfully even Nintendo realizes this, as they are rushing to release the NX this year, to try to get out a viable product and reverse their failing product lines. Having said that, if the NX is yet another poorly designed product, based on yet another gimmick, Nintendo is done in this industry.
@ Philface, don't worry, the last Nintendo product I bought was the GBA SP. (I still own my original NES, SNES, N64, and GBA SP, all great systems). Sadly, their hardware for the last decade or more has been garbage, with poor specs and bad gimmicks cobbled in. That of course includes the Wii, 3DS, and Wii U.
Nintendo lost sight of the purpose of gaming a long time ago, now they're just trying to make the maximum profits from the minimum hardware investment, and that ...
It is a terrible name, they put about as much thought into it as they did with the Wii U or "New 3DS", just awful.
Wii U only has a high attachment rate for SOME exclusives because there has been a terrible drought of games released for the console, so people who bought it have very little to choose from. It's certainly not because Wii U owners magically support every exclusive title released, because they clearly don't when you look at overall sales of exclusive games.
Examples of Wii U exclusives that didn't even break a million units in sales: Lego City Undercover, Pikmin 3...
The core of Nintendo's problem is their cheap, low-tech, gimmicky hardware. People are tired of having to use silly gimmicks just to play games. Waggle controls, a giant oversized awkward controller with a screen bolted on, a poorly implemented fake 3D effect; what happened to the old Nintendo, known for solid consoles like the NES and SNES? Why are they so completely lost with these ridiculous gimmicks?
The Wii U failed to deliver in almost every way; weak CPU and GPU, n...
Where did he say he wanted it to be the "same as the Wii U"? Nowhere.
People don't want Nintendo's silly gimmicks anymore, they just want solid gaming hardware. Nintendo's "new way to play" got old after the awful Wii and Wii U, and sadly it looks like they are going to make the same mistake all over again, according to their new president.
