Well, he's not wrong. However, hinging the entire console's future on one title is a bit zealous.

You're so generous. I would have gone with unrealistic or even wreckless.

But the thing about making kooky predictions or giving minority opinions like this is that if you're wrong, nobody cares and if you're right (like picking a 100-1 underdog) you come off looking like some brilliant soothsayer who knows better than everyone else.

Too bad it took Nintendo a year to come out with it. It actually does look great, but if one worthwhile game a year and minimal 3rd party support is to be expected of the Wii U, there's still no point in me buying one.


One worthwhile game in 1 year? While this year was limited, if we go from Nov 2012-2013: SMBU, ZombiU, Scribblenauts Unlimited,Lego City , Pikmin 3, Rayman Legends and SMB3DW were all great games. Next year looks absolutely stellar  with DKC, Mario Kart, Smash Bros, X, Bayonetta 2, Yarn Yoshi, Possible New Zelda, and whatever else they are going to announce!

2012: Nothing

2013: Super Mario Brothers 3D World, Lego City Undercover

2014: X (IF it's actually worthwhile) and DKC (almost guaranteed to be amazing)

Nope. My statement still holds true for me. For diehard fans though, I see your point about 2014.

 

EDITED: 2012 had no worthwhile games for me.

The problem with the WiiU will be lack of third party support.

People can stay stuff like this all they want. Everyone with even half a brain knows the statement quoted in thread title is not true at all. This is coming from someone who kind of likes WiiU also...


Actually, the even didn´t noticed the WiiU existed before playing this game, so much that he pratically ignores all exclusive games the console already has

I dont want to be a bore, but a small correction: Lego City Undercover was launched in March, 2013.

And now being a bore, I disagree. All games indicated by Nirvana are excellent and worth the system. But that´s just personal opinion. No need to argue about that.

You're right. That means nothing worthwhile came out in 2012.

NY Times is reaching. That and only idiots care about their "gaming" advice.

Congrats, the console no one should want to own has the only game worth wanting.
