Are you joking around? You know this is supposed to be Rol's job, right?

(If you aren't joking then you are really confused.)


You wanna know why in the other topic that I said, "Play Wii U while you can"?

 

Because Nintendo doesn't know what they are doing.  They obviously have no flippin clue with how to run a a functional online, and not including a harddrive in every Wii U proves it.

Nintendo's Wii U is basically old technology and from reports, can't even use 2 gamepad screens well.

Nintendo has had to resort to begging for 3rd party support, and they won't even get half.  This shows that 3rd party devs and publishers have little faith in Nintendo....honestly, I can't blame them.  Nintendo has always been for kids and devs and publishers aren't interested in Nintendo's BS censorship or strict bs guidelines (Nintendo denied BINDING OF ISAAK).  Not only that, but they, as well as everyone else knows that their grandma and soccer mom fanbase is going to dissipate and the Wii U will be lucky if it can achieve GAMECUBE unit numbers.

 

With Each generation the stakes are raised, and Nintendo is clearly not ready.  I forsee Nintendo leaving the home console business after this and sticking to handhelds and going 3rd party like Sega did.

Maybe they'll return at a much later time, kinda like how Atari did with the Jaguar.

But the Wii U is headed for a heap of trouble.....so yeah....enjoy it while you can.


Cos online, hardrives and 3rd party support is what made the Wii such a success right?


Wii U won't have Soccer Moms to bail them out this time.

And 3rd parties are clearly not fully invested or confident in Wii U's prospects.

 

Nintendo's lack of Online will ultimately be Nintendo's undoing.

 

2006 ≠ 20012


No. Nintendo unifying their EXCLUSIVE digital library across handeld and home system might be their saving grace. It's 10xmore important than PSN or XBL. Especially given that EA(Battlefield) and Activision(CoD) have online models that will hurt XBL and kill PSN.
