I would say that amongst enthusiast gamers the Wii U is highly regarded, in the general unwashed masses of the gaming public the Wii U is not appreciated as much

I got banned for using the term "Nintendo freaks" (as in "football freak" or "anime freak" or whatever), so there's some indication as to how Ninty fans roll in here and how touchy they are.

then if Xbox one pass PS4 sales there will be a total chaos here made by PS fans
nintendo collapsed in the UK, the magazines are all gone and the forum went too, the only visitors to the ressuected site are the same 8-10 people posting in all the topics, the only friends/leftovers there including the mods.
Dedicated nintendo forums are long since dead, just like how the Nintendo core fanbase has diiminished, you only have a few dregs of nintendo communities around, kind of like tribes of kids/neckbeards or some such, and they just congregate around other forums like Pigeons pecking off the scraps of forum space.
IGN vg gamespot these sites get normal traffic so since they cover nintendo they just accumalate to these sites instead.

Maybe with so many great and exclusive games on Wii U , and small signs of third party trickling back , the fans/ owners of the system can not see why more have not bought into it NOW. Nintendo have some great titles coming with Splatoon, Yoshi Woolly World,''X'',and some good indies arriving this year to...
Maybe they are dumbfounded as to why so many have bought into PS4 when there are only a couple of worthwhile games on the system ( Bloodborne, Driveclub,) all the others can be played on previous system in some form or another.
I own all the previous three Sony Consoles, (i have two PS3) but even i can not see why anyone would jump at PS4 unless they have no other console from last gen to play. For instance a family member of mine bought a PS4 because he wanted to play Destiny , he would have bought on his 360 if it had not gone into meltdown after to two rrod.
He was quite a big 360 gamer and after his problems he shifted to PS4 , the poor guy has many 360 games he cannot play and he won't trust Microsoft anymore.
But what i don't get is why are gamers buying a XONE and PS4 to play similar games ,in most cases the same ones.
There's now doubt in my mind that Nintendo at this present time offers the best gaming machine in the current gen. And many gamers fell the same.
Don't modern gamers research whats available on systems anymore?
Have i fallen alseep and woken up in world where they only play COD,GTA and yearly pointless editions of Fifa.?
Where are the gamers that explored different genres on a whim?
I have never been a PC gamer and these new systems are just PC in fancy boxes.
Wii U is a games console , that what it does and it does it perfectly.
Now can i wake up and be a world where games where fun , not boring and ultra violent realism.
Wii U gamers buy the system because of the games, it's Japanese style gameplay adds that special character to all it's games and harks back to a time when all games where made this way..
Maybe the Western studios are to blame,they have slightly ruined gaming with their yearly franchises, which offer nothing new, No one takes risks anymore.
Long Live Nintendo..

There are many reasons Wii U isnt selling well, but 3DS has sold many systems, and nintendo is still relevant it will always be. It has amazing games and nothing is more hype then nintendo!

^ pretty much, when your favorite console or just company in general are in deep shit. Fans and Fanboys of dat company tend to be on the internet alot due to many reasons such like:
1. Maybe they dont have anything to play on or..
2. Pissed off and want to express their thought on the internet or...
3. Create awareness dat their company is bla bla bla in the gaming community or...
4. whatever the cases.
Overall, i think Nintendo need to step up their tech and games so they could complete with Microsoft and Sony. Like seriously, the majority of Wii U games are either have very crappy online modes and/or just abosulutely no Voice Chat support at all :(. Its 2k15 already Nintendo, is it it too much for the Fans to ask for something dat it already existed since the PS2/XBOX era ??? Just sayin.

You were making good points until you completely killed your credibility with your final sentences.

VGC has always been and will likely always be a Nintendo majority. Strange you're just now noticing it.
gamemaster4747 said: Seriously, the forums have been very Nintendo driven lately. As big a failure as Wii U is, it doesn't make sense. I am talking sales wise, not that it has terrible games. As much as I dislike Xbox, it would make more sense to talk about it more. Of course PS is the most successful, so why not more Sony talk? Maybe 3DS, but a lot of Wii U posts are posted. If Nintendo is so interesting, why isn't it selling Wii U's and 3DS' like hotcakes and crushing Sony and MS? |
