Yes, yes. It is claimed all the time from self-declared hardcore. So it must be true. Tell me the detail of what is worse. Not 'as everyone sees the online is worse', but 'in game XY the online is more laggish' or something like that. I'm sure we can work out the detail why it has to cost such a high fee.
| Seece said: WiiU does not have anywhere near the amount of third party support XB1 and PS4 have. |
Sure, I agree. I was talking about the launch. Let's see.
WiiU 2012: ZombiU, MH3U, Sonic Racing, ACIII, JD4, COD: BLOPS2, Scribblenauts: Unlimited, Batman: Arkham City, Skylander Giants, Sports Connection, Epic Mickey 2, FIFA 2013, Mass Effect 3, Tekken Tag Turnament 2, Darksiders II, Madden 13, ...
PS4 2013: COD: Ghosts, FIFA 2014, Battlefield 4, AC4, NFS: Rivals, NBA 2K14, Madden 25, Marvel Super Heroes, Injustice, JD 2014, Skylanders Swap Force, Angry Birds Star Wars, ...
Looks more or less comparable. Now support is worse for WiiU, no question. But the focus was were, even if you try to ignore that.
| Seece said: Nintendo games are not what the core want, that's not to discredit them, but they want Halo, Uncharted, Destiny ect. Bayonetta and X are incredibly niche, just the same as XB1 potentially getting LO2 and Blue Dragon or something. |
Hmm, that's more to the point, specially with the comparison with LO2 and Blue Dragon. Still - Nintendo tried here to appeal to the hardcore. It might not work as well out of the box, but the try was a lot better than to result in these sales - if it really is about the focus to the hardcore.
| Seece said: Power is very important. Not who has the most power, but enough power to realise a jump in performance and graphics, something both XB1 and PS4 both offer but Wiiu does not. |
Hmm, maybe. But again, as a point alone it seems to weak to support the theory that the WiiU sells bad because of the missing focus. I still say, that the WiiU might perform a lot better, if the launch window games had released all until latest March 2013, not all over 2013. And if they were followed up by more announcements for the later year. But development seems to go slow.
