Man, Deus Ex would be such a waste. I'll expect that so I won't be dissapointed.

On the more positive side, we've seen most of the "leaked" WiiU games released or announced, with one of the few left being "Final Fantasy 3". A pretty cool anouncement would be Final Fantasy XIII trilogy. I would like to see something bigger, but I would expect those titles to be anounced at E3. It's not like they would be releasing soon anyway.

On a side note I don't want Chrystal Chronicals. I never got that approach. Why not just release true FF on every system. Why spend the resources to make a different game? Especially now that Wii U has decent power. If CC is released on WiiU it will make it seem like Nintendo's system is again the one that gets the weak token 3rd party support while others get the real game.

Well  judging on the ps4 launch titles we've seen so far, its in a diiferent league to the Wii U. Square would not want a mainline FF to be held back by the Wii U, they've already shown their ambitions with next gen iterations with the Agni's philophy demo. Also having a console exclusives like FInal fantasy CC will do more to sell the system then having watered down ports of ps4/720 titles. At this point in time, I don't think the Wii U is in a position to compete with those next gen systems directly, but more sell itself as purchase you'll pick up along the way, or while you wait for ps4/720 to drop below $400.



We have seen nothing on Wii U so far that pushes it, we have seen little software running on actual PS4 hardware, and the one title we saw in action, Killzone, could probably be done on WiiU as I don't think it actually pushes the evenutal true PS4 specs.  I would say if you polled most WiiU owners they would say they would prefer a FFXV with a few less polygons than a cheap spin-off title.  While there is no doubt significant difference in power between PS4 and Wii U, none of what you have posted here is based on fact.

FYI, FF: Chrystal Bearers sold a weak 360k on Wii as an exclusive, while the XBox360 port of FFXIII sold 2 million copies.  I doubt Crystal Bearers moved a single Wii purchase, while I can say the availablity of FFXIII on 360 sold at least one box to one customer...me :) 

WiiU doesn't need a lot of third party support.  It just needs the AAA titles.  Deus Ex or other mid-level titles aren't going to do well on a system that has Marios and Zeldas.  3rd party publishers should be only porting top titles to Nintendo platforms but instead they have been doing the opposite and being met with failure.  That seems to be changing with Wii U, with Watch_Dogs, AC4, COD and possibly Destiny on their way.

I'm talking about home console, but that's a good start. Now it's turn of the WiiU


Just having Kingdom Hearts on home consoles again in general would be a good start :P



Some Eidos game I guess.



I LOVE ICELAND!

I wouldn't mind having the FF XIII trilogy ported over to the WiiU.

It would be a good indicator to see if sales-wise Nintendo fans are just all talk... or not.




Guess who is going to Pax EAST! This guy!

A handful of old games that nobody likes packaged together? That is what you would use to gauge third-party software sales on Wii U?

I was so expecting this response !

FF XIII games did manage to sell 9.5 m copies. What on earth do Nintendo fans hope for, honestly ?

Why not? The publishers themselves are using old ass ports as their criteria, judging from the off-the-record whining we've been hearing about. :p

We hope for games people actually want to play. FFXIII certainly didn't sell on word-of-mouth -- the response to them has been overwhelmingly more negative than positive.

Don't put a few games people have been trash-talking nonstop for years on a new console and complain that "Nintendo fans are all talk" when they don't sell.
