Forums - Nintendo - Wii U Impressions After One Day; Nintendo Has Changed The Game~ indeed they have!

F0X on 19 November 2012

I hate playing games on the 360. The face buttons are poor for anyone used to the DS layout. When it says to press the B button, I end up pressing the A button. Total crap.

Good thing the Wii U gets it right.

couple of negatives.

- No universal screen resizing. when you first turn the Wii U on everything will be over zoomed and you must re adjust the screen in every app. still have not figured out how to adjust home screen.

- No rewards program for basic users sucks! What if we wanted a white Wii U or couldnt find the deluxe Wii U? I am for down for digital but  not being able to get the same rewards for it as the deluxe users buyers suck. Hopefully they let us buy the service.

- speaking of DLing, we 8GBers are screwed.After the initial update we are left with less than 2GB. We cant DL any games minus Mario and Nintendoland and you cant have both at the same time. Regardless of 8GB or 32 we are most likely going to have to get a external hardrive . Games and Installs take alot of space up.


outside of these 3 complaints I have nothing negative to say about the Wii U. I Love it. The way it cements itself as a all around entertainment system is great. You can use Wii U to do anything. Changing channel sounds really stupid untill you actually do it. Mii verse is awesome, but it might get annoying after awhile. have not seen any childish shit so far from the users




Regarding your last point about the space, it is really cheap to upgrade.  The price you pay for a single game for the Wii U can give you a massive upgrade on space.

Microsoft and Sony copied it before it was even released, so of course it's a game-changer.

No, they haven't. Smartglass is not the same thing....I don't even know why you think Sony copied it.


Sorry. I am terrible about making facetious statements on the Internet.

More seriously, MS and Sony are wise to not really copy the Wii U. There's more opportunities for dual-screen gaming beyond using a controller. I'd like to see one of them put a focus on staying connected to the game, in some way, even when far away from the TV, through PC or mobile devices.

That other review bitching about all the cables, it has one extra power cord for the controller and the sensor bar one. Probably takes an extra 1 to 2 minutes to set up from your standard console. 2 extra minutes for 5 to 10 years of enjoyment. I find that complaint idiotic.

It's just a little bit more annoying if you move the console around a lot. I frequently move the ps3 between the living room and basement. All it needs is an extra standard power cable and hdmi cable in both places.
Is the sensor bar essential though? I don't think so. Dragging the power brick and charge cable around is not ideal anyway. I hope they sell them seperately.
