Forums - Nintendo - NY Times: "Wii U is the only new console with a game worth playing."

Train wreck on 26 November 2013

Don't know why people are arguing with folks over the wii U getting positive news, just let them bask in the glow and have them overhype this news. If consumers cared about the Wii U they would have bought it in droves over the course of this prior year. Its not like they don't know new Nintendo games are coming. I'm guessing the payola that Nintendo sent out to the multiple publications this past week are for former Wii owners who have neglected the system (and even after the press will continue to do so) to take a second look.

Exactly, we should go back to posting bad Wii U news. This overhyped positive news are detrimental to this forums.

This is not an overhyped news. Just an opinion. It just that some people are not capable of understand that.

Don't waste your time.

These publications are irrelevant because they only consider short term value.

Stop being defensive. The publication just claims that right now the Wii U is the only next-genconsole with a worth game. There's nothing about future.

Don't try to downplay the Wii U.

Lol, im not defensive, i'm stating facts about the console, not downplaying the quality of this game.
Wii U is the gamecube of the generation, a complementary console for nintendo games but most of the games of the generation wont be on Wii U



Predictions for end of 2014 HW sales:

 PS4: 17m   XB1: 10m    WiiU: 10m   Vita: 10m

oh look, wii-u is number 4.


yer and then 4 days ago cnet said Wii U is a compelling buy. Go figure lol.

so we can't trust the media right? fine with me because this negates the whole "Wii U is the only new console with a game worth playing" as well.

"Posting bad news" is something akin to system failures that are going on with the PS4 and Xbox One, there has been no bad Wii U news, just truthful news (low sales, exclusives not selling, no 3rd party suport, etc).

That's just an opinion. Like the article posted in the OP.

More truthful news: it hast clearly the best games of this year and every non-biased publication is agreeing with that

I'm not denying they are true. They are true, but they aren't good news. The system is doing horrible so they are bad news, unfavourable if you want. What's wrong with posting a good new sometimes?

Great news. You are prediciting success for WIi U then as considering most people on these forums would consider the Wii to be their comlementary console for nintendo games to the PS360.
