| archbrix said: 1&2. Doubting Nintendo is your prerogative. But the reason there's more PS3/V seen so far is because, well, Nintendo hasn't shown any games yet that will be on the Wii U, just demos. 3. Comparing the capabilities of the Wii U and the GC/GBA is flawed. The Wii U is far more capable and interactive than the GC/GBA could ever hope to be. Do you really believe that the GC/GBA could stream a full console game onto the screen or get multiple views of games from above, behind, etc. And something like that ninja-star demo from the Wii U trailer? So no, Wii U offers far more than just graphical power over Wii. 5. They are concerned about price when considering buying three additional controllers, but clearly it can support more than one for at least some games. They've even mentioned the fact that friends bringing their controllers over is likely. I'm sure you couldn't stream Crysis 2 flawlessly to three or more controllers and the TV at once, but do you think Madden wouldn't support two screen-based controllers when all it would require is streaming play-calling? Doubtful. 6. No, from what I understand some companies complain about annoying restrictions on Xbox Live, for example, and would prefer more freedom. http://www.eurogamer.net/forum_thread_posts.php?thread_id=195119 |
1&2 NSMBM is a Wii U game that was shown was it not?
3. It is not flawed. The GBA even had motion control on some games and a camera. Were they 2D or not so processing intensive games I think it could have.The comparison is apt because if they let you use multiple controllers then you face the same issues faced with GC/GBA connection sans 20 bucks for the wires.
5. I concede to your point. I just lack the imagination to see it put to compelling use. Maybe good board games.
6. I DON'T CARE ABOUT THE DEVELOPERS AND PUBLISHERS. I'm talking about to the customers online experience and what that may mean for it. They are already raising the price of that despite LIVE.
