Guess that depends which "core" we are talking about. The term has been distorted over the years somewhat, to the point where it's often a stand-in for "dudebro". I consider myself a pretty serious gamer, but I love Wii Sports Resort.

Wii U's userbase is, so far, quite "core" simply because the console itself is too expensive and obscure to have bought by many "casuals". In the sense that most Wii U owners will be fairly avid gamers.

Alright, the Wii U does a great job appealing to avid Nintendo fans, it does an okay job appealing to fans of 3rd party Japanese games, and that's about it.

People that want CoD, AC and other noteworthy titles in that vein ignore the Wii U and there isn't much Nintendo can do about that. Which is fine for Nintendo, they still have a strong following that is willing to buy their hardware for their games.

I'm talking about what's going on in the enviornment, not the amount of content.


Dragon Age has more than just citizen NPC's ppulating their world but dragons, creates and many other things with their own AI. Its densely populated. Extremely detailed and multi-regional.

Well I'd have to see more Dragon Age, what I saw didn't look as busy as AC:U.

Not that it really matters. I still subscribe to the theory AC:U is aiming for parity.

It would more likely be 900p 30FPS. 

It should be 1080p/30 fps for both, we are talking about Ubisoft, where you have to put 'Parity' after the name of each Game. Assassin Creed Parity, Far Cry Parity, etc Parity.   They develop a Game with the weakest hardware in mind=XBone, and then give the same game to both PS4 and XBone.  Why to waste money pushing more PS4 hardware when the Game will sell a lot regardless of it, and when they are already getting $$$ from MS to have parity. How to blame them. I lost any respect for Ubisoft but many many gamers on this planet don't even know about this 'paid parity by MS' so Ubisoft don't care about few gamers who know about this and are disgusted. PS4 has twice the userbase of XBone, and this is the way Ubisoft say thanks to all PS4 fans. 

They aim for parity on ONE game and now their known for it? lol wow

Poor sales are the reason why 3rd party support is so bad on the Wii U. Several games truly can't be ported over because of hardware limitations. Game's like Unity and Arkham Knight wouldnt be possible on the Wii U without severe downgrading and heavy rewriting of engines which isn't practical at all. I think honest and objective people can at least agree to that. Then you have games like Destiny, Borderlands and Isolation which could have run on the Wii U but sold poorly regardless. I mean the Walking Dead is available on all platforms (even Android and iOS) so the Wii Us returns must be terrible for them to avoid it. You could say 3rd party's hate Nintendo or Nintendo gamers have higher standards but those sound like shallow excuses to me.



I predict that the Wii U will sell a total of 18 million units in its lifetime. 

The NX will be a 900p machine

To be fair. Assassins Creed Unity doesn't look bad at all from a technical standpoint. New footage from the XBox One version was shown and it looked exceptional. I don't think anyone had anything negative to say about the games visuals till this parity disaster. Ubisoft can save face by patching in 1080p or better effects on the PS4 at 900p30. A like for like release will just cause controversy.

If 3rd parties can't sell on Wii U, they have themselves to blame for not producing desirable enough products.

Say it enough times and it will become true.

Again, a thread about resolution over all else about an upcoming game.


This is really sending a bad message to developers.

It's not the consumer's job to give their money unconditionally, the developer has to earn it.

Or the developer could simply take their product to where its appreciated
