is this the 1st time he's ever hearing about the sony 1st party quality? does he think their gonna all of a sudden forget how to deliver quality... anyways the pretty picture consoles sold about 160m combined consoles(and still chugging along pretty good),while the non-pretty picture console is just eeking to 100m sold 

btw reggie,another week goes by that the wiiu  got outsold by the vita,just think about how crazy that is

TBH I don't know why. But something tells me budget had a thing to do to with it as well.

A good example of this is also how they release the game on all the platforms, COD on Wii and Wii U never had limtited edition or the prestige editions.

Even games like Guitar Hero, the guitars seemed more flimsy on Wii, even though they sold more copies than HD twins.  

Saying all that I don't think Nintendo are without their fault here. The controller is what cost them specs. I wasn't expecting PS4 gfx but was hoping for somewhat closer to xbox one. I think xbox one will suffer the same because of the kinect. Although Microsoft are charging more to kind of offset the cost of kinect. Nintendo could never do that with their console as people don't see it a high value item, so they would take a huge hit with higher specs and controller, which they cant do as they are not diversified like Microsoft or Sony.

Gaming history sure ISN'T something to sweep under the rug, but it goes both ways. For instance, Sony has sold more home consoles since 1994 than Nintendo has in it's entire LIFETIME. They've also beaten Nintendo 2 out of 3 times with home consoles.

Clearly, they know HOW to win this thing and I won't be shocked if they do again.

It is a similar situation; the Wii U CPU is of a different design to PS3/360 and without extensive optimization/adjustment, code for the latter won't run as well on the former.

I disagree. 

Morrowind.  Released on the Xbox in 2002. 

Oblivion.  Released on the Xbox 360 in 2006.

Witcher 3.  Will be released on the PS4 and Xbox One in 2014. 

These three games are open world adventure/western RPGs games.  All three have or will have released on consoles the year after the consoles launched.  Witcher 3 looks a lot better in comparison to Oblivion than Oblivion does in comparison to Morrowind.  Hell.  Witcher 3 looks a lot better thatn SKyrim or Witcher 2 in comparison to Oblivion and Morrowind.  Certainly not noticeable.  /s.   

He doesn't understand that the leap in graphics and power will attribute scale and possibilities not capable in the current gen. Thirty to sixty man matches in Battlefield can be done without breaking a swear next gen in larger maps with less lag. Battlefield 3 on consoles was watered down in order to sell between the PS3 and 360 and now they dont have to worry about Sony and Microsoft having inferior tech any longer. This leaves Nintendo alone in the cold because they never paid attention to the trends in western development. This means they have no chance of getting Final Fantasy 15 either now and that is from a Japanese company.

Are there any hardcore fanboys seriously trying to defend this guy in this thread? Please give me the link of their posts if there are any. Thanks

Well said Nintendo graphics are not everything!

So what innovative game are you bundling with the WiiU for the price cut?


"A prettier port of a ten year old Zelda game!"



"sigh"

when they announced Wii U they said its all about the experience..when they asked nintendo how powerfull the graphics are they said it was better then ps360 should they have said it wasnt ? AND the ps4 x1 were nowhere to be seen at that time.

and now they said its all about experience when asked how powerfull it is compared to X1 PS4.

I dont see anything wrong or hypocritical with what they said.

its just timing

So basically, software sells hardware.

And this is somehow seen to be controversial... Ok.
