I am gonna leave a thought here.

We hear these same websites saying how the Wii U is not next gen, how Nintendo is doing everything wrong and when the games drop its 9.5, 9.8, etc.

Do they not understand they are contradicting themselves? The hipocrisy is strong on them.

Well, in the bolded instance, even if the Wii U doesn't feel, look or play next gen, that doesn't mean the games on it aren't good.

To my knowledge and from the things I have seen about it, SM3DW doesn't scream next gen, but the game look really well made and and plays pretty well with all 4, aside from camera issues which is expected.

As for the second bolded statement, I'm pretty sure you are exageratting a bit there. I doubt many of these websites would openly say "Nintendo is fucking up EVERYTHING"


What good is next gen if not to give us better games? Yet, these are readily available on the Wii U and on the 3DS. If theres something Nintendo systems do, is prove that processing power does not make a good game.

So, what does it matter if its next-gen or not? The discussion is moot (and let me tell you i dont consider the new consoles next-gen either, they are current gen +), if you have a super powerful system with 8.0 games and a not as powerful one with 9.5's. Its hipocrisy from where i stand.

Well, i admit i dont read everything about every site, but we all know that the like of IGN, gamespot and GT all sing the same tune and for example GT's official stance is that the Wii U is not next gen. If you watch their shows with Marcus Beer, Pachter, Bonus round and Invisible walls they are constantly bashing the Wii U and Nintendo. 

Nintendo seems to be a horrible misguided and ancient company that should die already... except they make awesome games. I think this is what drives them crazy. That Nintendo makes great games but they cant have it on their prefered systems.

@bold: well said.

I honestly cannot recall the last time playing a game has made me smile so much.

Funny how the only Nintendo threads that do well are ones that are negative. When Big N's games are destroying the competition in Metacritic score, all the little queers run and hide...

Kind of hard to believe with all the initial cries of anywhere from rage to it looking out right cheap this becomes a game in the running for Game of the Year. (It most likely won't win on most sites but still) I think what surprised me most was Gamespot who seems at times like their life depends on giving anything Nintendo a 8 or less, gave this and Zelda on the 3DS a 9. But yeah this looks really awesome.



Nintendo Wii by generations...

1. Wii

2. Wii U

3. Wii O U

Predictions made by gamers concerning the current Nintendo line up of games.

Pikmen 3= Little Bump to nothing. (Got Little Bump)

Wind Waker HD= Won't sell anything (The explosion happened here and at one time 4 Wii U games was in the Amazon top 100)

Super Mario 3D World= Won't help at all looks cheap. (Currently the most sought after Wii U game and continuing the Wii U increase.)
