Yes, I am disappointed.
1) I bought a wii u thinking that it would at least have smash bros and mario kart 8. Smash bros does a great job in balancing the competitive side and the casual side while adding plenty of content. Mario kart 8 however feels like a downgrade (not only does the gameplay feel the same as the wii version, but the local multiplayer has gotten worse)
2) I bought the wii u under the impression that it would have decent third party. In 2012 this launch plan included zombiu, Rayman legends, lego city undercover, and wonderful 101. That's 4 third party exclusives!!! Not only that, but crysis 3, arkham origins, injustice, dying light and aliens were all in the works to make full use of the wii u along with the definitive edition ports of nfs, deus ex and darksiders. Now the Wii u only has a small dlc for skylanders as its exclusive third party offering ... Pathetic.
3) if I don't like a new release (splatoon, mario party 10, etc.) It's really sad that I have to wait months before another game (that I may not like) releases.
Just like Nintendo's recent e3, I had very low standards for Nintendo this gen, and even then they managed to disappoint me |
Your fault for buying a Nintendo console for third party support lol. And again your fault for having bad taste (liking Mario Kart Wii and not liking Splatoon).
Nintendo is actually doing a better job this gen compared to last gen for me. How I loath Wii Sports, Wii Fit, Wii Music, Wii Party, Skyward Sword, Metroid: Other M, etc.
The Wii only had 3 amazing exclusive games for me (Metroid Prime 3, SMG 1 &2). TP was amazing as well, but also on GC.
I'll be buying Xenoblade Chronicles tomorrow, so I'll let you know how I like that one. And I'll play it on the amazing gamepad, so the graphics won't look absolutely disgusting. :)

You misunderstood me. I did not buy a wii u for third party support, instead I expected it to have decent (didn't have to be the best) support. No other respectable console has had this little third party support.
likewise, I never said I like mario kart wii (double dash is my favorite since that actually changed up gameplay).
Suddenly I have bad taste in not liking a game with no voice chat, basically no local co-op, low content compared to other shooters, and a launch dictated by nintendo and not the buyer? Splatoon may be fun for you, but I really don't see it as the defining game that everyone here makes it out to be. I'm pretty sure reviewers also got their say in it.
The fact that the Wii got 2 3d Marios, an exclusive LOZ, and a metroid game (and collection), is more than enough proof that the Wii u is a step down.
Have fun with xenoblade, you get used to the visuals, which are actually really good for a Wii game.
