As I said in another thread (the one about all the bugs on ps3):


well maybe i'll get the game on pc then.

I was going to get 360 version, then changed mind to ps3 and now both are buggy,

Maybe i'll wait for wii u version, surely by then the game will be major bug free and have better textures.


the bugs on consoles aren't really major , and even if you feel they make the game unplayable, then they will be patched up, so there is really no reason to miss on this game


yes but here is a question for you. 15 or so years from now I want to revisit the game with my kid. I dust of the old console and want to fire up skyrim on my ps3 to show him/her what cutting edgerpg was in my time. By them it would have been unintalled. I can no longer get the patches to fix the gamebreaking bugs as ps 4 or 5 is out by them. 

At least with pc, patches stay online forever. wii u gives me some hope that the game breaking bug may get fixed.

eventually I will get it but until then I will wait and see.

Not really, i don't want it because its not on the Nintendo console. I'm just not that interested in it, doesn't matter where the game is.

wow, you really think way forward into the future, by the time of 15 years they might release a remake or something. or better yet release newer games.

I would buy it!!


thats the spirit



Assuming i would want to buy Skyrim in the first place, yes I would. I like the controller concept, not to mention it would be the best version on console (likely due to specs)

I was never aware that there was particular grief that Skyrim in particular was not on Nintendo platforms.

Nintendo fans (like myself) bear some scorn towards Bethesda and Zenimax as a company for how they have deliberately avoided supporting Nintendo platforms over the years, but that is irrespective of the games they deliver. I fully expect for there to be an excuse when it comes time as to why Skyrim, or any other Bethesda/Zenimax game, can't come to Wii U


Hey, didn't they publish that super awesome hardcore mature Wii racing game, Wheelspin?

You really shouldn't judge them on that anyway. Even in the heights of the PS and PS2, those 2 consoles only ever got 4 games... All of them some Drag Racing game. They had 100 Million and 150 Million sales respectively, and still couldn't get serious Bethesda support because the hardware wasn't good enough for the vision they had.

You want to know how popular/big those drag racing games were? Take a look at the Wiki for them. Tons of information.

Actually... Before this generation, PS consoles only had 1 game more from them than Nintendo consoles. The Xbox had 3 games from them. That's right. Before this generation, Bethesda treated Nintendo equal to Microsoft in the console market. Bethesda have always done what they think to be best for the games they release. It's why they never released a PS2 version of Morrowind, despite that console being the most successful ever, everywhere (At the time).

If the Wii was a HD console, it would currently have Oblivion, Fallout 3, Fallout: New Vegas and Skyrim. Then again, it probably wouldn't have done as well as it has as a console. The way I see it - Nintendo can't have the best of both worlds. They can't expect to release an under-powered console while the 2 main (and expected to do better in sales) competitors are both blowing them away, power-wise... And then still get the same support as those other 2. Especially when they're targetting a totally different market to what Bethesda make games for.

Thats not really bad, they also made this piece of shit of a game

yeah, its a win-win for them and gamers if they release it on WiiU.



I would like to see how they would implement the Tablet controller, as it seems perfect for a game like Skyrim (the user interface is kind of a chore on the PC). I'd imagine that they could make great usage out of the second screen.

Also, I just realized that when you're disarmed, you actually lose your weapon (I thought you couldn't use it for a period of time...). I lost one of my coolest swords. T_T

Disarmed as in arrested?



Sure, the tablet seems nice.

Good thing I didn't buy Skyrim at launch. I'll be able to weigh my options in the future.
