This post not moderated and classified as whining/trolling/flamebait surprises me, considering similar past posts in other threads quickly get in care.

 

OT, looks like this generation isn't doing well. Wii u was already losing money, and now with the price cut. On the other hand, sw sales of 3ds is still in the low numbers.


Hmm, maybe because i wasnt trolling or flaming???


Then what was the purpose of your post? It didn't add anything to the thread.


To make a point, perhaps????



Soo you point is?? Wii U is weak "by far".. really?? Compare bayonetta 2 to second son.. and get back to me on that with recorded distance okay? Oh you think nintendo has no 3rd party support?? Take a look at 3rd party support on Wii U and compare it to that on PS4 & XBOX ONE, I don't see Batman or Splintercell on ps40ne, do you?? I think you're real point is that you underestimate NINTENDO! Then this thread is for you. Ppl have always doubted the big N and just look at those stats and tell me, who was proven right time and time again??

Yes, by faaar.  That is technical fact. Billion times worse  GPU (especially compared to PS4), CPU(its even worse tha PS3 CPU in some regard), less and much slower RAM, bad and hard architecture, its a very outdated hardware when compared to PS4 and even Xbone in jut about every way imaginable. And the fact that you think Bayonetta is anywhere close to being comperable to Second Son shows how much you know about the subject.

3rd party support...i really thought you wouldnt try to argue this, because even the most hardcore nintendo mafia knows its 3rd party has been shiit, for almost 20 years actually. Batman and Splintercell are last gen games and are being released for last gen platforms (PS360) and the fact that that its releasing on WiiU as well tells you that its alot closer to PS360 than it is to PS4 and X1. Also, those games were in development years before PS4 and X1 were even announced. And where is Battlefield, Witcher, Bethesda, UE4 and other major studios/games/engines on Wii U?

My original post had nothing to do with Nintendo, rather with desperation some people here have in order to make their company look good in the middle of thier worst selling season yet

At the end of the day, isn't profit REALLY the only thing that matters..? At least if we are to look through the lense of capitalism which us Westerners seem to love so much.. Nintendo wins where it matters most, in profit.

Yeah, if you count game profits only, if you include overall profits from MS and Sony (well, Sony from PS1-2 era) and not just their gaming division, the picutre is a bit different. Microsoft could probably buy Nintendo on their 4 year profits.

What does weak hardware have to do with success? Also, Nintendo has CLEARLY shown they don't need third party supoprt, as they recieved little more than shovelware for the Wii, which managed to be a sales phenomenon, and the Gamecube support was near non existant and they STILL made a profit.

I wasnt talking about Nintendo, take a loot at my last post





Gamecube was a massive flop. The only reason Nintendo made money during that era was the Gameboy.

is "billion times worse" a technical term? can you substantiate that into visual terms? I can

2000x1125


1920x1080


so i can see infamous' kid has detail in his beanie. That must be the BILLION TIMES GPU! Not much detail on the building and background. Pah-lease! it ain't about the fancy pen & paper, it's about the artist. You can have you're bazillion, I'll take Nintendo gamecraft.


And as for 3rd parties.. They go were the audience is the biggest and the tech is the closest to their own. Wii U has the lots of 3rd party games this year and aside from gta v (which p4x1ain't getting) there's NOT A SINGLE third party game I want that ain't coming to Wii U. Would I give up all of Nintendo's games this holiday to play p4x1's offering? HELL Naw!

second son gameplay

sonic lost world gameplay

knack gameplay

mario kart 8 gameplay

driveclub gameplay

x gameplay

shadow fall gameplay



then theres still more Nintendo games but i'm tired.. maybe i'll post more pictures tmrw. I love seeing the billion times difference^^.



What "all games" you talking about? HD reharsh of old Zelda game? add to DKR(pretty good one though), Mario game from 3DS with new levels? Those 3 games?))

First off, i love how you used higher res pics for bayonetta and lower for infamous. Also, nice cherry picking

This isn't about what you want, but Nintendo lacking 3rd party since like forever.  WiiU will stay relevant as long as PS360 stay relevant since its raw power is closer to them.


Anyway, lets compare open world game with destructable enviorments vs a linear action game

Doesn't look like it's cut and dry this gen however.

Depends on your perspective.

Nintendo is making a profit as of now. Sony is not. MS can't get a Gen 8 profit without having released any Gen 8 system yet. So you could argue that Nintendo is number 1 in profits so far this generation, too.



AS for the GPU part
