LMAO, pot calling the kettle black. There are a LARGE amount of games released on PS360 that either get released later on PC or not released at all. At least know what you are talking about before claimng anyone is ignorant



E3 will be good for nintendo

DS1 came out after WiiU was revealed last year, and I'm sure many of these games have started development after devs heard WiiU was in development.

I heard about the Wii U way back in mid 2010.   Doesn't mean I was able to put a game on it.

Granted, I'm not a developer...but my point is just because a 3rd party is aware of the system doesn't mean they can support it right away.

1. Does the developer have the allocated budget (internally or from a publisher) to add another console?

2. Does the developer ahve the manpower to allocate to another SKU?

3. Does the developer have enough development kits for simultaneous development?

4. Is the game engine already on the system or will that require another years worth of work?

5. Was the hardware finalized enough for us to put resoruces into it when we began development?


And many other questions go into the development process.  You can't just say because a dev heard about the console that it means they could develop their game for it they wanted to.  It's not that simple.

I'm just going to quote thiis again for the people that didn't get to see it yet.



The rEVOLution is not being televised

I think there will some probably 40% of big games that do show up on Wii U

Batman: Arkham City, Call of Duty, Assassin's Creed, Final Fantasy (to be announced) will come.

BioShock, Grand Theft Auto, Crysis, Battlefield 4, Metal Gear Solid, Dark Souls, Watch Dogs won't IMO.  

Anyone buying a Nintendo console for third party parity with other platforms was off their rocker anyway. The system is on par with the PS3/360, yet has an awkward CPU set up and very low userbase.

This was predictable and anyone could've seen this coming from a mile away.

Nintendo hasn't had great third party support for 15+ years now, this is nothing new, it's just the norm at this point.

Scribblenauts and Monster Hunter are multiplats, they are on 3DS too.
