Don't blame >99.999999% of the population for not playing games on a console they didn't even know existed for the first few years of its life |
I think Wii U was good console, but Nintendo made too many mistakes (marketing, name, price, concept, launch and 1st year lineup...), that didn't really had chance on market.
| StarOcean said: The irony is most of the people begging for this shit were the same who attacked Sony and MS for doing the same thing for the X1 and PS4. But yes, stop with the fucking port begging. Jesus Christ. You never saw anyone go "I want Super Mario Sunshine ported to Wii right now!" or "we dont need a new Smash game, Brawl was perfect. Lets just get a Brawl port for the Wii U." No, fuck that. Buy a Wii U if you want Wii U games. If I get a Switch I want new games, not games from 2012 |
Well 2013. and 2017. are not same, today remasters become standard for gaming industry, that wasn't case in 2013. Also huge difference compared to PS3/Xbox 360 is that Wii U was bought only buy 13.5m people while PS3/Xbox360 was bought by 80m people, so there will be tens of milions of people that missed great Wii U games beacuse Wii U was faile but they would gladly play them on Switch.
I am Wii U owner, and I want more Wii U ports, same like Wii, 3DS HD ports and 3rd party ports. Ports doesn't mean there will not be new games, especially because in Nintendo case most of those ports are done by external teams. One example, MK8D is just launched and next month we will have new game from Mario Kart team. More games is good thing in any case, especially if they are great games that only small number of people actually played them.

When you're trying to get its 10-20 exclusives ported to a new machine, sounds like your the one who's mad. I'd rather get sequels to mario maker, smash, yoshi, donkey kong, etc. I'm not saying ports are bad, I'm just saying I don't want the systems first year to be full of them. The only two ports id possibly buy are a smash and hyrule Warriors one (if they included all the content from the 3ds versions). Oh and I certainly did not have buyers remorse like a certain commenter said, I bought almost every Nintendo game released for the console along with a good bit of third party games (I prob have around 30-40 retail titles for it) and I haven't finished half of those. So I'm still enjoying my Wii U If you want to play the games, buy the console, I'm sure Wii U's are gonna be pretty cheap soon. |
That's not how things work. Some people liked few Wii U games, but they didn't want to buy failed console without future only because those few games. Another a more personal example is PS3, I liked few PS3 games (TLoU and Uncharted games) but I didn't want to buy PS3 because only them, but I later both PS4 and 1st games that I bought are actually those games. And again, port doesn't mean we will not have new game.
You can hardly find Wii U in sale, it discounted few months ago, and even if somebody can buy Wii U, it better to pay little more for Switch than to buy Wii U, espacily when defintive editions of Zelda BotW and MK8D are on Switch and some other Wii U games will be ported.
| Magnus said: I'm fed up with all of this port begging. I bought my Wii U to play exclusives, it was not worth buying if you could skip it and play all those games regardless. Breath of the Wild on Switch should have never happened, Mario Kart 8 Deluxe should have never existed, end of story. People who skipped the Wii U do not deserve to play any Wii U game. |
:D
So some of best games of last two gens should never happened!? People who did not buyed worst selling Nintendo console in history and their biggest faile, dont deserve to play Zelda BotW and MK8D!? People who skipped PS3 don't deserve to play TLoU and Uncharted Trilogy!? Sry, but thats just crazy.
Ports/reamsters are become normal thing and actual standard for industry, you will hardly ever play game that will be exclusive only for one console and that will not be posted later, we even had N64 games that were ported this gen. Better accept that or accept that consoles are not for you.
