Nintendo WiiU : Thread 04

[importaku]

To be honest GBA games look horrible on the 3DS. They have a nasty blurry filter on them plus for some reason the screen is a lot darker when running GBA games they really could do with fixing.

[Guts]

GBA games on the WiiU is the only real highlight .. And they will be stupidly expensive ... Nothing to see here move along ..

E3 will all be about a new handheld .. I don't think the WiiU will be a viable platform come the end of this year.

650 yen = 4? / 5? Oh my god, how can one afford to eat!

And new handheld on E3. LOL, why the hell would they do that?

[dvdx2]

its rather disgraceful the way nintendo have let the wiiu go like this. i'd be well irked if i still had one gathering dust.

the pitiful amount of games and support for it now is bad, i cant imagine what it will be like in a year...more mario, no doubt

Bayonetta 2 is my most wanted - https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=o09z...gJZ1g8v-Aa48na

"Pur-ga-tor-ia?" Glad to see they haven't wasted any resources on nonsense like voice acting, top stuff!

Is this a forevermore or a timed exclusive for WiiU?

Is this a forevermore or a timed exclusive for WiiU?

Nintendo have funded it so it's forevermore (unless they decide to flog it in the future of course)

[Golgo]

Ta. Doubt it's going to be a system-seller for Ninty, though, however much they might hope, so they may as well flog it.

This E3 we will be launching the The Wii2UP, the Wii 2 U portable removes the need for a base console and packs all the power of the wiiu into a more compact tablet style console that is only 4 inches thick, the wii2up is still made of the highest quality glossy plastic and carry's a top of the range resistive screen with a maximum resolution of 640x480p to give true Nintendo style graphics on the move.

We at Nintendo have a long tradition of screwing over early adopters and fixing issues with our hardware via multiple revisions think back to the original GBA and how hard it was to see unless optimal lighting conditions, and how we the GBASP fixed this and added a more compact form factor to the GBA too. The original PHAT DS was really just a botched prototype that was rushed to market and was quickly replaced with the DS Lite. the wii2up continues this long held Nintendo tradition of fixing mistakes with massive hardware changes.

For existing wiiu owners wanting to upgrade We will also be offering an upgrade program where for ?15.99 per title you can download all your existing wiiu physical disk media to the wii2ups 32gig of flash memory, But please bear with us during this process our store is creaky and slow and we underestimate the bandwidth needs often.

To be honest mines in the cupboard, but I don't mind, I'm keeping it for bayonatta 2 and Mario kart 8 , I can't see the point of selling it, and when I bought it I knew it would never keep up with the ps4 and xbox one, so just keep for the 4 or 5 great nintendo games a year, but it has been a disaster if you are after third party games, but I'm not.

"Pur-ga-tor-ia?" Glad to see they haven't wasted any resources on nonsense like voice acting, top stuff!

It's spelled "Purgatorio" in the game, it's Italian (Dante's Inferno). Besides, come on, cheesy voice acting goes hand in hand with games like Bayonetta because the game itself is cheesy as Hell (pun intended).

[Junko]

The handful of first party games for this year aren't going to be enough to save it . I still can't believe they have made such a terrific balls up of marketing and lack of instore merchandising , it's been a disaster

E3 Nintendo prediction:

New handheld, proper one this time with just one screen, nice and powerful, but also with a strong empehsis on Indie's with a self publishing model, possibly using Unity.


WiiU, other than Smash Bros, probably a new Zelda and Mario game will be shown , but not expected to appear till at least 2015. Otherwise Nintendo basically silently drop the WiiU.

......Like a silent fart in a crowded lift, soon it will be gone and forgotten. its looking like a contender for joining the Virtuaboy as the Second worst Nintendo console of all time.

[wakka]

A new handheld at E3 seems extremely unlikely. 3DS and its software continues to sell very well, and at a big margin for Nintendo.

Won't happen. It won't sell like the original Wii, but it will slowly reach Gamecube sales figures I reckon. I still think there will be some greeat games coming out for it! E3 in 4 months, with a BIG Zelda announcement! I dare you not to get excited...I DARE YOU!
