| Soundwave said: I said this in another thread, but I think it's pertinent. Enough of the complaining over Zelda. Time for the 9-10 million Wii U owners to STEP UP and actually give other games a chance. Enough with the "there's nothing to play". Bullshit. - There's plenty to play if you're willing to play something without Mario/Zelda-Hyrule/Smash in it the title. Bayonetta 2 is phenonmonal and it's two games for the price of one that most Nintendo fans have never played. Try it. Donkey Kong Country: Tropical Freeze criminally was overlooked a year ago, it plays great and has one of the great soundtracks in Nintendo history. Did you give this an honest chance? Wonderful 101 and Pikmin 3 are just sitting on the eShop waiting to be discovered. Captain Toad deserved better. Even third parties, Rayman Legends and Zombi U are very good games. You can find them at virtually any Best Buy for like $20. $20! Man, c'mon. COD: BLOPS2/Ghosts, Assassin's Creed IV, Batman: Arkham City, Tekken Tag 2 ... honestly there's nothing wrong with any of these games. They look and play great on the Wii U. And they're prety much better than 98% of the crap third party stuff on the Wii. Zelda delay? GOOD. Now maybe, just maybe games like Splatoon, Xenoblade X, and STAR FOX can get some shine and not be ignored in the way Bayonetta 2, Captain Toad, and DKC: TF were. Pissed that you have to wait an extra year for Zelda? Try waiting 20 YEARS for a new proper Star Fox and get back to me. Take away the nostalgia glasses and Xenoblade on Wii was better than the last two console Zeldas too. Yet maybe like 800k people on the Wii bothered to play it on a userbase of 100 million? For shame. |
I suspect that not too many of the people you are talking to are on this site. I have all those games except Zombie U which didn't grab me and Tekken which I've never liked. Also the WiiU owners on this site can hardly be held accountable for sales on the Wii :P
We are in agreement about the Zelda delay thogh, it seems like most of these people weren't around for any other Zelda releases, they always (?) get delayed. People need to put on their big boy pants and move on!
Having said that, Nintendo could now do with at least one more big title before year's end, or several smaller titles. It will be disappointing if there is nothing new to see at E3. While I look forward to Splatoon, Xenoblade and StarFox (especially), none of these are going to help the WiiU to great holiday sales, if such a game even exists.
