In response to Reply # 0


  

          

I'm not a Nintenfan. I went from Sega to Playstation to XBOX. So I never owned a Nintendo system. But it seems like they are living off the legacy with games created 25 years ago? Every year they trot out "new" versions of Mario, Zelda, Mario Kart, StarFox to sell their newest systems. Without fail it seems. Gamecube, N64, DS, 3DS, Wii. Doesn't it get repetitive? When was the last time they came up with a new property? This isn't a hate post. I really want to know.

If they were Sonic'ing these franchises, you'd hear more complaints.

Donkey Kong country, Mario, Zelda and Metroid are consistently rated at 9+ by critics across the board.

have they previewed the new console yet?

Thus the lack of complaints. I guess people aren't looking for anything new from Nintendo as long as they continue to do what they do well.

What's the point of the 3DS considering the VU's big screen?

I saw you could when the WiiU was on and the TV was on another channel, but can you actually download a game on the controller/tablet?

No way they could keep that in place if they're planning on these games actually having online multi. Does the 3DS have friend codes?

3DS is handheld specific, and you don't trade codes per game. The code system itself though, is hella fucktarded.

Seems like most of that is gonna be on the controller, being that it looks A LOT like the Wii, I'm thinking they're gonna get some good Scalability out of the parts for the console.

It's a completely legitimate question, too. Nintendo doesn't really have an online network, if you're promising a console with better online, what exactly does that mean?

Oh, NOW they're kinda getting into it with the whole "45 million" thing. And I can't believe the president of the North American branch of a trillion dollar corporation just said "lie-bary," smh.

Reggie's making it sound like the third party developers are going to create this for their games, though. It's all sounding vague, I'm sure more details will come out as we get closer to launch.

I don't really feel like typing out all the shit I feel about this lol. It'll sell, i get this. I'm not buying it. It's not for me. The demographic that they're trying to get back already has PS3 and/or 360 so I wanna see how they get those people to come to them. Wii people need to find a reason to justify buying it.

Again, it'll sell because people love spending money. Is it a smart buy? At least from what I see, fuck no. I know it's day one, but I was not wowd like I was with every other console/handheld announcement.

There are a LOT ppl, me included, who have Wiis and are die hard nintendofans but are FED up w/the lack of 3rd party support for Nintendo. This console addresses that. So really, it's about not LOSING fans, rather than woo back PS3 and Xbox owners.

Also, think about this. in a generation or two (console generation) after Nintendo is just a STEP behind the other consoles in horsepower, but has better gameplay and innovation than them AND has the same 'cool' games. How many people are gonna just say "Fuck it, I'ma buy a Wii X"

It's the reason why people see movies that are buzzworthy, everyone wants to be in on the party.

Just watch.

I don't see that happening. When you have to have a seperate dev team to concentrate on the same game, but for a different platform, I think it gets sloppy. We saw that with the Wii, but obviously you can blame the lack of horsepower the Wii had.

The way you put it, it's just going to repeat since nintendo will be behind again and devs will put less and less focus on it

They're all around the same level as the current HD consoles, which are six years old.

It's impressive to see that level of quality in a portable for $250. It's not so impressive to see it in a home console from Nintendo.

I was hoping they'd wise up and beat Sony and MS to the next gen in terms of power, but they're taking the Wii approach and making a system that's just graphically on par with what was out five years ago.

Nothing wrong with that and maybe I'll pick up one if they drop an incredible Zelda game, but for now I'm just not interested in a company that's putting out systems in 2011 that are using friend codes.

Clearly, they're gonna come w/it on the 3rd party.

Also: Their console is going to by about $150.00 cheaper than most other consoles. That's a powerful motivator, no?

Arkham City months after it releases this fall? *yawn*

You think this is gonna be $150 less than the PS3 and 360? Ha! Besides, I already have those two systems.

You think it's gonna be $150 less than the PS4 and 360 2? Could be, but Wii was cheaper than PS360, and as an owner of all three, I've been MUCH happier with Sony and MS' consoles.

Nintendo has basically got themselves 3rd party support for just as long as the PS3 and 360 remain out there. I'm guessing we'll hear about new Sony and MS home consoles next E3 or GDC and they'll release in fall of 2012. If the difference between them and Wii U is the same as the difference between PS360 and Wii, Nintendo will be right back where they started.

No not these, I'm talking about whatever NEW console they plan to come out with. Once again, Nintendo has beaten them to the punch, pretty much addressed, to a degree, the shortcoming of the Wii. Their in pole position. This is a win.

Well, I'm guessing you're not their target. You sound like nothing they do, short of coming out w/a PS/Xbox clone would please you.

What makes you think the 3rd party support will go away. Why would developers leave money on the table. HUGE numbers of people own Wiis If they can get that XBox/PS & Wii money, why only settle for PS and XBox? That's a bad business move.

I’m a HUGE Nintendo fan. Twilight Princess is, imo, the best game ever made. I love the stuff that they do, the problem is they simply did not do enough of their core stuff for me last gen. Go back to the old E3/TGS posts where the Wii was revealed; I had the first seat on the bandwagon and was really excited about the possibilities of the new controller. They’d proved that they could innovate despite having under powered hardware with the DS and I was sure they would do the same with the Wii. While the DSi wasn’t a third party power house per se, it did have a number of great third party games (Ninja Gaiden, GTA, various FF remakes, etc.) so I was hoping that we’d see the same on the Wii. It started out cool, but eventually things slowed to a trickle. On top of that, their first party stuff wasn’t as good as it’s been in the past (with the exception of Zelda and the two Mario Galaxy games). Then on top of that, they took a huge step backwards in my eyes with the 3DS. I copped almost every system this past gen on or around launch (cept PS3), but the 3DS just looked rushed. They had shit for software, no DLC store, and a hardware that seemed half-baked in comparison to the previous gen (2.5 hr battery life? Foh!). I still ended up buying it, but for the first time ever, I actually returned a system. I’ve never been that underwhelmed with a new system, and this is somebody who had a 360 on launch day with PDZ.

Basically, Nintendo’s gonna have to prove to me they can deliver. They need to get into 2011 and get a proper online system from the gate, and they need to take more risks with their franchises (wouldn’t kill them to make a new IP for the games, too). If they do that, I’m in, but right now it just seems like another gimmick.







(who am I kidding, I’ll be copping as soon as there’s a new Zelda).

I feel relatively assured that the 3rd party support will be here for the duration, the online thing is a concern tho....

The whole hook is a 6 inch screen that's backwards compatible with Wii games.

I'd much rather play core games on an 360 or PS3. I'll go out on a limb and say last gen (whenever that is) PS3 games will look far superior to WiiU games.

Honestly Nintendo needs to focus on Apple. Apple has shovelware as well. The difference is they don't charge $40 for it.

Screens will be played out
Screens will burn out
They'll have no games.

They've addressed the graphics issue. They've addressed the lack of 3rd party/Mature games issue. They've kept up their innovation advantage. AND it'll still likely be cheaper than their competitors consoles. How much was the Xbox 360 when it came out? $600? This thing will be like $399.

Seriously, what more do y'all want?

This honestly sounds like the discussions over the Wii all over again.

smh

We'll see how it all plays out, but considering the company's history. I think it'd be foolish not to bet on Nintendo. I've

$200 to $250 cheaper than the PS?

Have access to the same games as those consoles, and probably be about a half-step behind them graphics-wise.

If you're a graphics guy, I can see how this will be a deal breaker, but honestly, a LOT of people aren't really that concerned with it. For me, it's all about gameplay.

I don't care about hyper-realism, all I really care about is solid art direction and ability to display HD.

That said, N really needs some killer software to show off what the system can do from a gameplay perspective. But all it takes is that one dev to think outside of the box and blow us away.

yes graphics are important. if they weren't we wouldnt have a 360 or ps3. if they arent important for you then you might be as happy with N64. I love graphical achievements. it adds to the realism. Im not in to play arcadey cutesy games though so i guess that answers that. Nintendo is coasting on their children's demographic so far. An I am sure this system isnt there to abandon that demographic but simply to allow the parent enjoy it as well. As for serous gamers, this is a niche system if I ever saw one. Just like wii. The extra screen thing is as much of a gimmick as wii motes.

They haven't had solid third party support for years. 2 years into this console's life, it'll be left alone by third party.

Nintendo always provides all this "innovative" shit but there is never any solid support. Even almost all the first party stuff on wii hardly used the motion controller for doing anything besides wiggling it around.

Kirby Epic Yarn - wiggle the controller while playing it sideways
donkey kong returns - wiggle the controller while playing it sideways
Mario Galaxy one and two - may have well played with a gc controller if it was an option
super smash - didnt use any motion
paper mario - didnt use any motion controls as far as I know. I didn't get very far in it.
Twilight Princess - wiggle the controller. aim down shit with the bow and arrow
new super mario bros - wiggle the controller while playing it sideways
metroid other m - inconveniently point the controller at the screen to shoot shit in first person

My point is that even most of the good games for wii barely used the motion controller. Almost all the games used the controller like a regular controller.

Then most of the third party stuff that tried to use the motion controls came out sloppy although there are some good ones.

114. "What did you expect them to do w/motion controls?"
In response to Reply # 107


  

          

There are some games where it was used more effectively.

Force Unleashed
Red Steel (although the game itself wasn't very good IMO)
The Conduit & The Conduit 2

None-the-less, even if they do admittedly little w/the motion controls it's still more than the other consoles can do w/out it.

I see your point on their history, tho. I guess you think this will follow suit. I think they've finally gotten the message. Because between Gamecube, Wii neither had any kind of 3rd party support AT ALL.

At least now we're starting w/some good 3rd party games. However, I could turn out to be wrong here, I guess only time will tell.

what the fuck is this garbage?

Wii was a blockbuster cuz there was no barrier to entry. Grandma could wave the remote and the character on-screen would wave their tennis racket. easy.

Now you're asking her to pay attention to two screens while working the controller.

so you've killed your over-40 market. and Nintendo's already lost the hardcore crowd. and their hardware will look like complete shit next to the next iterations from Microsoft and Sony.

so you're left with little kids and Nintendo fanboys. i.e. the exact same market for the Nintendo64. way to go, guys!

E3 2011: Wii U third-party montage actually Xbox 360, PS3, PC footage
By Tor Thorsen, GameSpo
tJun 8, 2011 11:16 am PT

Compilation reel of Darksiders II, Dirt, Aliens: Colonial Marines, Ghost Recon Online, Metro Last Light used footage from other platforms, admits Nintendo of America president.

LOS ANGELES--Yesterday at its E3 2011 press conference, Nintendo showed off a montage of games from third-party publisher and developers for the Wii U. The compilation of clips appeared to showcase the new console's 1080p graphics, as it was packed with high-definition shots of games coming to the platform.

The problem is that apparently many of the clips weren't showing Wii U graphics at all. In an interview with GameTrailers, Nintendo of America president Reggie Fils-Aime flatly admitted that much of the footage in the "sizzle reel" was in fact of games running on the PlayStation 3 or Xbox 360.

"Absolutely, because we're talking a year away from when the system is going to launch," said the executive.

Fils-Aime said the footage substitution wasn't an issue because the Wii U will feature HD graphics, just like the PS3 and 360. "In terms of how good it looks, it's going to be driven by the what the individual developers do," he explained. "The system's going to be 1080p. It's going to be high definition."

Fils-Aime did not single out which game footage was shown running on different consoles. The montage showed clips of Darksiders II and Metro Last Light from THQ, as well as Dirt from Codemasters and Ninja Gaiden: Razor's Edge from Tecmo Koei. The trailer for Aliens: Colonial Marines--which is in "consideration" for the Wii U--had been previously shown to the press. Also, the Ghost Recon Online footage had a logo at its top from a PC frame rate testing program. However, the teaser for Namco Bandai's Tekken showcased customization features, which appear to be exclusive to Nintendo's console.

In response to Reply # 0


  

          

http://www.joystiq.com/2011/06/09/wii-u-currently-only-supports-one-wiipad/

Investing in a new console is never cheap, but considering the main input method for the Wii U is a controller with a screen in it, we were understandably daunted by the idea of having to buy multiple WiiPads. According to Shigeru Miyamoto (probably known best as the senior producer on Chibi Robo) we needn't have worried.

Miyamoto told GamePro that the Wii U will only support one WiiPad, explaining that if the company had wanted to do multiple touchscreens it would have found a way to let players use 3DS systems with the new console.

Miyamoto didn't rule out the possibility of letting you take your WiiPad to a friends house and linking up play somehow, but it doesn't seem to be actively in the works at the moment.

you can just only use 1 of the new controllers per system at the moment (which, admittedly, is retarded)
you can still use 4 wiimotes

I don't think you need 4 of these active, but I think if at least 2 were compatible, we wouldn't even be having this discussion.

HOWEVER, how many of you actually play games w/2 players in the same room, vs. playing an online multiplayer mode?

As wack as this sounds, I think they might have done their research here.

just like nintendo saying the reason they arent including dvd video or bluray support in Wii U is because people already own devices that support these formats. In the end, it's just a lousy excuse.

It's being marketed as a party system. A console that'll gather around friends in the same room. A console can play HD games (which isn't a big deal anymore) and features an "innovative controller." Then they say it only supports one new controller. Have fun passing the controller around at a party.

This is the last of the misteps for me. I'm one of those people that still kinda care about DVD playback. My DVD player died since I've had my console, and it would have been nice if I didn't have to buy another one and just used my Wii. For them NOT to include it again seems kind of lame. I mean, I kind of get it. They aren't trying to do anything but gaming, but still they need to realize that people don't want but so many units plugged into their TVs. And quite honestly, this doesn't really seem like a new console, but more like Wii 1.75. There really isn't enough here to make me want this yet. At this stage it's more of a "that's nice" than a "Gotta have it", ya dig?

You're such pests...now, what is it you want? In your depths of your ignorance, what is it you want? Well, whatever it is you want, I can't deliver because I just don't see it. - Orson Welles

From reading in between the lines, they're just gonna be cost prohibitive.

Add into the fact that they're actually using outside developers to help w/one of their franchises (Zelda I think) and I think the worries of limited 3rd party development can be put aside as well.

I still would like to hear about more games tho...
