Firstly, you seem to be positing that until now Gamecube was the worst games console of all time, as you keep comparing the Wii U to the Gamecube. This would be a very dumb premise to begin with. I think people have listed all the horrible consoles there have been over the years, e.g. the Jaguar, 3DO, CDi etc. Even something like the Saturn is surely worse than the Gamecube.
Now for the rest of this nonsense. The Gamepad works pretty nicely in some games. It's not as smart as a Wiimote, but it's way better than say, the Gamecube controller. It's far more versatile and I think Splatoon has done a nice job of showcasing a side to it perhaps we hadn't seen before.
Third party support is weak. That's fair.
First party support on the other hand blows Gamecube out of the water in my opinion. Sure, the new Zelda game has yet to come, but right now, they say it's coming. The Wii U doesn't have a Metroid game, but you can buy the Prime Trilogy on eshop for a convenient price. Splatoon is a great game of which the Gamecube has nothing to compare, Super Mario Maker will be another great game that the Gamecube will have nothing to compare (in fact 2D platformer support on Wii U is fantastic, which may not be important to you but is important to some). To say that Wii U doesn't have a "strong" 3D Mario game is objectively wrong. Super Mario 3D World is objectively a fantastic game, and if you disagree then you are factually wrong. Super Mario Sunshine on the other hand, which you quote, is actually quite flawed, if still good. Smash and Mario Kart (the best Mario Kart ever) are ready and present complete with continuing support. Backwards compatibility is obviously better than Gamecube - not just because it can play Wii games but Virtual Console and also just controller backwards compatibility. I haven't had to buy a single new controller for Wii U (save for the Gamepad which came with the console) and yet I can still play 8 player Smash if I want to.
This all leads back to where I began. No. |
You state that like it is a fact. I don't understand how so many gamers have zero appreciation for Sega consoles. The Saturn had Panzer Dragoon Saga, Radiant Silvergun, Dragon Force, Guardian Heroes, Nights into Dreams and so many other classic games that I would certainly put it in the same league as the GameCube.
@OP
You have got to be kidding me. You have got to be joking by excluding any console not manufactured by "the big four" (you mean five right?). If you are going to be so selective then why not have an appropriate thread title? As far as the worst console between those companies I'd say that you're splitting hairs when comparing systems like the GameCube, Wii U, Master System, Saturn and potentially the One.

hey, thats not fair, even if the saturn isnt the future of sega, its not as bad as the one.
