Forums - Nintendo Discussion - WiiU - Lots of new Info - Same poor result. Why Nintendo Direct just confirms my fears.

I don't get why any self confessed long term nintendo fan would be concerned about whether nintendo follow the blue ocean strategy or not (unless, of course, they own shares in the company)

I too am a grumpy old man and I've been a fan of nintendo for years and I couldn't be happier to see them catering to their core audience. While I would obviously rather see nintendo succeed, saleswise, as a fan I'd rather be playing a 3d mario game or a new zelda any day over a new wii sports title.

Why was everyone in the world angry when nintendo (allegedly) focused on 'so-called' casual fare, now everyone in the world seems angry when nintendo aren't? (although Game and Wario, Wii Fit U and Wii U Party make me wonder if this is actually the case!)


In answer to this question - I wouldn't classify myself as a Nintendo fan but as a Wii Fan.  Before Wii I was strictly a PC gamer.

"Powerwise WiiU isn't significantly better than current gen system."


Err what?







The isn't a current gen game on PS3 or 360 in the same ball park as this with this sheer scale.

Yeah, this game looks quite awesome!

And I can't wait to get my hands on Wind Waker HD. My favorite in the series. As long as they keep the charm of the original version, I won't be disappointed! =)

Its an impressive game considering its a Wii U exclusive but it doesn't blow me away. The game is possible on PS3/360. Nothing mindblowing happening in there.

Yeah, of course. Because we all know there is nothing impressive or mindblowing on the PS360.
