Nope Wii U has brought back core games to Nintendo and that alone is significant.


I agree, they are bringing core GAMES to Nintendo, now I just wonder if the core GAMERS, who Nintendo has given plenty to be excited about, will actually come over, or will they find some new excuse to senselly hate on the Big N? I mean, HD? Yep. Third Party support? Yep (ARKAHM CITY YAY!!!) Expanded online support? Yep (not much on that yet, but it was mentioned a few times by both Nintendo and the EA guy). Sign me up.

Not that i dont agree, but all those things you mentioned have been done on current HDs for years. Arkham City will be out in OCt, you really think a core gamer who already has PS360 or both is going to plunk down 300 just to play a game they already own??? That would make no sense, especially if they dont care about Ninty titles

Do you think Nintendo needs those people? If the Wii U and continue to bring in the crowds that Wii currently has, plus steal aways those who say they want the what the HD twins have but also want the First party nintendo goodness, they will do just fine. It's the Wii60 philosophy, but all on one console. Why buy the HD twins, when you can get the same games PLUS Nintendo exclusives? I know this is an over simplification, but there are many gamers like myself who only want or can afford one system, why not the one that has the widest variety?


your making no sense, first you say that NInty will get that "core" gaming crowd, and since i said the wont really get it unless the features are really better and the games they get are exclusive, now you say they dont need them??? Your right they dont, but then why even try to have 3rd party "core" games with that attitude??? They should keep doing what they were doing with Wii. People who already have an HD console are not going to pluck money down just to get a port of a game they own. Look at the sales of ports if you dont believe me. RE4(PS2 version) & Okami are the only ones who did better than the original. I dont think its about affordability, i think its about outright fanboyism for some people. One could afford a Wii and nothing else, fair enough. You miss out on a bunch of 3rd party titles. Now you say you will buy a WII U which wiil be MORE expensive than the current HD systems?? Just buy the HD systems then
