Nintendo WiiU : Thread 05

[fishbowlhead]

Ah okay, thanks Wakka.

That's interesting. Does it fill your gaming time, or do you play more on older consoles?

EDIT: and dataDave. Good to see there's plenty to keep you busy on it. I'm still working my way through my 360/PS3/XBox Games With Gold/PS+ games to upgrade yet and at this rate, I think I'll end up skipping a generation, so I know what you mean.

Currently I'm PS3, solely played for destiny. Vita, for the indie games and the handful of exclusives it has, I enjoy it for what it is though, and a WiiU.

With resogun getting a vita port, I've no need to wait for that either.

Like yourself QC, I may skip the ps4 & xbone at this rate.

Does anyone have a WiiU as their only current-gen console?
From the posts in here, it looks like the majority of people in here also have a PS4 and/or XBox One.
Just curious, really, based on people saying that the WiiU games are very good, but there are only a handful of them.

I do. No interest yet in PS4 or Xbox One, though I still use my PS3 a great deal.

I still don't feel either the PS4 or Xbox One have anything on the level of Mario 64 for N64, Soul Calibur for Dreamcast, Smash Bros for WiiU, Halo for Xbox (original), RE4 for GameCube - i.e. individual games that have sold me a console. For instance, titles like Killzone do literally nothing for me. I look at them and it's like watching paint dry.

Rodea The Sky Soldier Trailer, wiiu and 3ds later this year, yuji naka's new game.

Just Wii U for me. I still play PS3 a lot, however. Nothing has grabbed me enough to get a PS4 or Bone yet.

I only have the Wii U at the moment, plus tidying up a few PS3/360 games. I will get a PS4 when there are more then 5 games I want on it, one of which is out the end of the month (Bloodbourne).

I've been out of the loop on this, but is it getting a western release? At one point it was very specifically "only for Japan" so I didn't even watch trailers etc. given that the WiiU and 3DS are region locked.

Also, surprised now I've seen it; I heard it was a successor of sorts to Nights, but the few moments of the trailer I scrubbed through look like Sin & Punishment.

The Wii version is the Yuji Naka game (that was originally canned for not being "commercially viable" - a good sign), seems to play like Nights from a Kid Icarus viewpoint, and comes packaged with the WiiU first-prints. The actual WiiU version is a revised game focusing on story and customisation.

It's getting localised.

Nah it doesn't fill my gaming time at the moment. It has at points though. From summer last year to Jan of this year, I was solidly playing MK8, Windwaker, and Bayo 1 and 2. All simply superb games that I love!

I wouldn't want to ONLY own a Wii U though, no way. Currently playing a lot of PS2 (Yakuza 2 and Outrun 2 SP) and I've got Tokyo Twilight Ghost Hunters on the way this weekend for PS3.

Mario Party 10 next week though for some more Wii U action - looking forward to the gamepad-focused 5 player Bowser mode in particular!

You have 4 friends? Lucky.

[wakka]

Yeah. I don't really like online multiplayer that much, mostly into same-room.

[speedlolita]

Oh I despise online gaming, MMOs aside. Shame my peers don't feel the same.

Why do you think that exactly?

That said, my peers don't even play video games.

[Brad]

They aren't your peers. They're lower-tier life forms.

Yes, by NISA.
