Considering the Wii U went from basically no games for the past 7 months or so to having 1-2 AAA first or third party games a month for the rest of the year I would say yes it does warrant excitement. I just hope that the period before april has some games, though I will have other games and systems to occupy time as well.
so it is not okay to aim high for the future? If you are not okay with game companies improving themselves then you should find another hobby
I figured your true trolling colors would show once positive news started coming out. No more flip floping for you huh? Glad Sonic is laughing at you in your icon
this is why fanboys of ALL breeds are bad...
1. That is only after being out 2 days
2. pikmin 3 isnt even a major release
3. those numbers are only for Japan
considering those 3 factors, yes this is good news for the wii U. You are trolling just like the people who would say the vita is on life support
It won't finish it off. Sorry to tell you. A good indicator is actually n4g itself in the wii u tab. What was once pretty much a casserole of doom articles is now more of a salad consisting of articles addressing peoples excitement for new smash bros, pikmin, and other games with a dressing made up of more doom articles like this one. The fact of the matter is, games like smash and mariokart are going to sell whether you like it or not. It won't be wii numbers but only a fool would th...
Yeah definitely post this up because I would really be intrigued by a take on race in games! It is a topic that is not commonly discussed but has a lot of bearing to draw upon.
The fact that you even say that means you still have a lot of growing up to do.
Well people are gonna complain (not that Nintendo is perfect, far from it) but I have seen what I need to see. Megaman is in Smash and Smash will have an improved online multiplayer. That's it. I would pay $500 just for that. I'm gonna enjoy other games for both PS4 and Xbox1 cuz I prefer gaming over complaining, but there isn't much that can take my heart over Smash!
everyone is entitled to their opinion. I will be getting both PS4 and Wii U. The PS4 will have great games but to tell you the truth I will probably play Super Smash Bros. more than all the other games on Wii U and PS4 combined. Though KH3, X, and FFXV will come pretty close to breaking that thought.
you should really take your elitist talk somewhere else cuz it's offensive. Anyone can play games and you don't own the right to gaming just cuz you think you have been doing it longer that a certain demographic of gamers. Gaming is growing so you might as well get used to it. Until then I can't wait til the day those "mums" you speak of get good enough to beat you at any game you consider not gimmicky or "hardcore". I know my mom would be a good first candidat...
Just curious have you played any of the last few entries of the games you are exaggerating for your point? If you looked at the most skilled smash players there are on youtube and saw what they could do just in Brawl, or just how much more fun that game would be with the most simplistic upgrade in online multiplayer capability, you would not doubt the need for a new entry in that series. If you noticed that the last Pikmin showed up on gamecube and is conceptually one of the most original se...
Just to play devil's advocate I'm gonna turn the argument on the other side. Does Sony strive for new experiences with new IP's because they have a very hard time creating a software brand that can stand the test of time especially in the realm of platformers (Crash and Spyro)? Did Sony realize that gamers only call Nintendo's use of Mario as "milking" only because in reality gamers are incredibly fickle? Did they realize they could draw from past media forms like mo...
Actually a balance of both is what makes the best games. It doesn't bode well for a company to ignore fans I agree, but you can't just listen to them because we would lose all of the essence of games we currently have. I personally don't want Mario carrying a gun and following a bunch of command scenarios. I think rather Nintendo suffers from a lack of resources. They made a few bad decisions with the Wii U I think but really they could provide both or more fan favorites and more...
I don't understand why people constantly go on about this. The games are there and within your reach. If you don't want to buy the system then you don't get the game. Wii U is the most unique of the three consoles. Does that make it the best? No. But I think if people are going to choose to own only one console for whatever reason, they should stop bitching about what another console does or doesn't have and focus on what their console DOES HAVE. In your case if you want achie...
@fardan
A game doesnt have to be 18+ to have the fulfilling story components you are speaking of. It is funny you referenced pokemon as something you grew up on as a kiddie game when pokemon black and white had a story discussing the pokemon as possibly being enslaved and the morality of using them for battle. These are themes that may have gone over younger players' heads (and maybe your's too) but it just goes to show it takes more skill to make a game with gameplay...
I know im gettin it
wow if the blood isnt red then you dont buy haha. Not liking the games is fine, but nintendo gaming makes you wanna hurt people? those are some issues...
that it why it is called an opinion piece...
No, but it is not supposed to. It adds a game to a library that will be established over time. That is what Wii U needs to come out with a profit this gen, which is the goal.
