Forums - Nintendo - The Best Choice This Holiday Season!

True you have to pay, but the free games accross all platforms makes it worth it. And like the old 360 argument, I'm willing to pay for a better service. No offense to Nintendo and the Wii U, but the online community is borderline Ps2/Xbox quality. It's pretty bad.... You don't get a Wii U to play the latest Call of Duty or Battlefield online. When I owned my 360, I payed for Gold because it was a lot better than the PSN back then. I was willing to pay for a superior service. 

Well I don't care about a better service since I don't like to play online. Besides we already pay for internet so it's good to have no paywall for the service.

If online multiplayer games is all you want to play though then a PS4 and Xbox One would be indeed, a better choice, since I only play single player games and local multiplayer games. But right now I wouldn't trade Super Mario 3D World for any launch game on the PS4 and the Xbox One.

I think that the PS4 and Xbox One will be a very good choice next year though when the big games come out.

Completely agreed. 3D world is the best game of the holidays, but not of the year. That belongs to TLoU ;)

Well I don't know yet, I still haven't played Super Mario 3D World!

I did play TLoU and it's an excellent game. I think it wasn't as WOW as everyone said but it's definitely a strong contender for game of the year.

Too bad that GTA V will snatch all of the awards .

I bought GTA5 first day (Psn download) and really haven't played it much after the first week. Once the "omgwow" factor dies down, it's just another Gta... It's a great game, but it's the same old game! I guess I crave different experiences. That's why TLoU stood out to me. Or Ni No Kuni. 

Ni No Kuni for GOTY!!! Handheld game needs to be Tearaway or Zelda.

I got it digital too! A friend shared it with me xD. It was a nice game, I got some laughs but it isn't nothing really special. I actually didn't play through the whole game. I left it at the middle and just let my brother play the game. I would watch the cutscenes though, some where really funny xD.

Ni No Kuni was good too! It had some minor combat problems (like the dumb AI) but it was excellent. As for handhelds I didn't play them both. But I think it could be a fight between those two and Fire Emblem Awakening! :)

I'm leaning towards no.... As much as I really, REALLY want one, it'd probably be a waste of money for me. I have a HUGE backlog of Ps3 and Vita games, so I need to finish those first. I'll get the 3ds before I get a Ps4 though... Sometime early next year.

Yep, maybe it doesn't ooze that creativity that advertisement critics love, but it's clear and concise, it can help a lot clearing misunderstandings about Wii U that too many casuals show having about it and it's clear about some of its distinctive features.
Well done, Ninty.

If Nintendo is successful in communicating just how big off TV play really is, they could be sitting on something good. To me that in itself is a sleeper killer app.
