Hello everyone,

I am trying to start a flame war but I am trying to be realistic and objective.

Hardware

In terms of hardware the Wii U gamepad has no purpose. People don't understand the concept. In comparison with the Wii-at least the Wii controller made sense, the Wii masterfully executed its concept on Wii sports. The Wii U? Not so much.

Software

You can complain all you want about the gamecube. Yet it still had third party support like Resident evil 4, Okami and Soul Calibur II. The Wii U doesn't. What's worst the Gamecube had strong first party support Mario Sunshine, Metroid Prime and Windwaker. The Wii U doesn't even have a Prime game nor  a strong Mario game. We don't even know if Zelda will even come up for Wii U or be skipped all together. Remember, Nintendo can change their minds.

It's a incredibly sad day when Nintendo fans  are excited because Nintendo is localizing Mother into Earthbound Origins. Are you guys serious? A 26 year old game its the best nintendo can give us.

 

Please be respectful in this thread and I would call upon anyone to systematically challenge my points. 


Worse than the 3DO, Jaguar, CD-i, 5200, 7800, Pippin, Intellivision? Are YOU serious?

Yes but did you expected anything from those companies? This is Nintendo we are taking about- they are supposed to be master of hardware development. After all they have created the N64, SNES and NES. There are higher expectations for a company like Nintendo. I think that makes the Wii U even worst than the other platforms.
