Please tell me you are joking....

But it's true! it's the best WiiU Launch line up the world has ever seen!



“It appeared that there had even been demonstrations to thank Big Brother for raising the chocolate ration to twenty grams a week. And only yesterday, he reflected, it had been announced that the ration was to be reduced to twenty grams a week. Was it possible that they could swallow that, after only twenty-four hours? Yes, they swallowed it.”

Not getting mad, just surprised someone actually said the Wii-U's lineup was the best lol.

 

I mean come on....I can understand Super Mario Bros. U (even though that isnt confirmed to be a launch title), but when you have just Pikmin 3 (even if its popular), if your only other first party title that is a launch title is Nintendoland, I would be more worried about it than when the 3DS first launched with its first games lol.

I mean even Nintendo's other systems had more than 1 decent first party title confirmed for launch.


a huge majority of those titles for the ps2, 360, gamecube, and xbox were not good at all lol I'll let the NES slide because a lot of those titles were incredible for a home console during that era

Don't forget Rayman Legends. Launch day Wii-U exclusive... for the time being :D



Zero Escape: Virtue's Last Reward = best game ever made.

If it is just execs, I dont know..

but the average person at companies here rely heavily on bonuses.. the pay scale works a lot differently than America. Performance based bonuses are based on personal performance, and then you have a couple other non-performance based bonuses that are really chunks of salary distributed at certain intervals in the year. They probably degraded that I guess.. but that really sucks for an average engineer that had nothing to do with the failures..

Actually if Nintendo allows more smartphone and tablet like features such as a cheap app store then they might pose a threat to Apple.Prob not since nintendo relies mainly on actual gaming portions of thier hardware but still it's an interesting dicsussion on how a wii U can replicate ios devices but also enhance new game experiences with buttons

It's certainly better than the N64's launch lineup.
