Frostbite isn't on Wii U because of EA's spite. No more, no less.

This ''argument'' is getting old and holds no ground

Funny. I'd say the same thing about the argument that it has anything to do with power (given that, you know, the engine's on PS360).


Arguments about power can be supported and debunked using facts and specs, as well as games for example.

That argument is a dumb conspiracy theory with exactly 0 evidence behind it

One problem with using this video to support your case. It not only claims that aesthetics should be used to measure how good a game looks, but actually values aesthetics over graphics.


I dont disagree with those points. However, the fact that therei are NO Wii games which have best graphics this gen remains true


Which is fine. I'm okay with Nintendo being justified in heavily prioritizing aesthetics over graphics.

Bud doesn't Pickman 3 have some photo realistic looking stuff? If I had to guess it would be less than the differences between the Wii and the Xbox360/PS3. As they can all scale to 1080p.

Pickman 3?

Is that a new Nintendo game along with Moria and Hemroid prime 3?

Yes, it's being released right before the new Dongey King and Wii Shit U.

here are no Wii games that are among the most technically advanced games of the gen, but there are some that can be seen as having some of the best visuals.

The consoles much more important than the graphics, right? So, what are you worrying about? There you are. See?



“It appeared that there had even been demonstrations to thank Big Brother for raising the chocolate ration to twenty grams a week. And only yesterday, he reflected, it had been announced that the ration was to be reduced to twenty grams a week. Was it possible that they could swallow that, after only twenty-four hours? Yes, they swallowed it.”

- George Orwell, ‘1984’

And gets locked into an expensive arms race.

It's ok to realize Nintend left that tech race time ago. They simply won't and cannot compete with biggers companies like Sony and Ms.

Now they focus on making games as better as they can with the tech they have. Nothing wrong with that.



Proud to be the first cool Nintendo fan ever

Number ONE Zelda fan in the Universe

DKCTF didn't move consoles

Prediction: No Zelda HD for Wii U, quietly moved to the succesor

Predictions for Nintendo NX and Mobile

They should though. GameCube was my favorite Nintendo console and yes, the graphics had a lot to do with that.
