It represents the "Quality" of recent Wii U games. They are poorly made with low budget. Wii U games are scarce and whatever they are of very poor quality.

Tell that to Splatoon, Super Mario Maker, Yoshi´s Woolly World and XCX

How many new good games has made Sony this year though? Bloodborne and... Until dawn? oh and none of those are really sony games :/

Even in their lowest year they have delivered more than others. The real difference is third party support that can make that a console looks good even if its company does not make a single game for it, but that´s a problem that cannot be fixed already, not for this console at least.

Splatoon aka Vocal Minorities GOTY (LOLZ) - Meta 81

Super Mario Maker aka Some random game / creation tool - Meta 88

Wooly world aka Little big planets "theme" rip off - Meta 78

I will reserve my comparison with Wii U's third year with PS4's third year. As for games, PS4 had probably more game games this year that Wii U got in its lifetime. Lol.

True, but people forget about Sony's mistakes because, apparently, it's hip to hate Nintendo.

I haven't even seen a regular Sony game in years. Well, except a remaster of God of War III, and Sly Cooper: Thieves in Time, but the latter flopped. -_-


It should be common knowledge that Sony's first party generally takes two years to build itself up. Unlike Nintendo they are investing on huge undertakings and Nintendo is starting to increase the development schedule of their titles to catch up with demands of next gen. Infamous and Killzone already dropped, but Uncharted and other first party exclusives are on the way.



NX. NX is happening!

Then Nintendo must be slowly trying to kill the Wii U and bring us something better. Can something so crazy work?!

Those are just fillers. I mean it was an easy decision: people love amiibos so make a filler that needs amiibos.

Are you really that simple?

-Splatoon: It was released with a 30% of the content it has now, and the only major criticism about the game was.... yes the content, it was more shallow than Star Wars Battlefornt and still was good enough to have a very solid score. Now with 15 maps, +80 weapons, +150 pieces of gear, 4 online modes and 2 new matchmaking options the game would be easily at the same score of Mario kart 8 (88) even IGN did a re-review of the game recently giving the game 7 points more than it had. Also 3 Goty nominations for a new IP like this and the fact that is the most popular online shooter of japan history says something about the game. Splatoon would have sold around 15 milions on Wii going by the attach rate, is certainly not a irrelevant game, at all.

-Super Mario Maker: It is actually the second best rated exclusive of the year, and that score is even higer than Fallout 4 (that is a brilliant game) and is considered one of the best creation tools ever done and the most fun one. 1 Milion sold on 3 weeks in the lowest selling Nintendo console ever and a nomination for best game of the year make it everything but a random game.

-Yoshi´s Woolly World: It has actually around the same score of Until Dawn, the second best Ps4 exclusive this year, and the third over all, and the general opinion is that is the best Yoshi game since Yoshi´s island, a game higly acclaimed as one of the best platformers ever. And a rip off of what?



^ This is Yoshi's Story, a game from 1997 already showing the textile aesthetics. Who ripped who?

-And of course XCX is a heavily ambitious rpg that any lover of the genre should play, and is only for WiiU.

In order for Ps4 to have a better first party line up it has to release enough good exclusive games to go against Bayonetta 2, Tropical Freeze, Pikmin 3, Mario 3D World, Smash Bros 4, Mario Kart 8, The Wonderfull 101 and all the games mentioned above. It will eventually because the life of the console will be longer, but let´s not forget that next year WiiU has #FE, Pokken and specially Zelda. It will take a while.

Little Big Planet, which people apparently stopped caring about.

Yes, the PS4 has had more games, but how many of those were first-party? And for that matter, how many of said first-party Sony games were even memorable?

The Last of Us? All flash with mostly cutscenes as opposed to actual gameplay.

Need I remind you of Knack?


Lol. You are comparing a console that had one year advantage. Dont worry. Wii U will be a distant memory in 2016.

who cares if a game is third party or first party?

When people buy consoles, they don't think "man sony is really bad at first party games, better go with the wii u." Instead they think "the ps4 has a ton of great games, better go with that."

Point is, Sony spent their money better in investing in third parties. The consumer doesn't care if they are the best or worst developer, the consumer cares if the consoles has the best games.
