If you are Nintendo gamer then you have to accept trade off. Nintendo exclusives dont look good graphically. Though many people in this forum said graphics dont matter. But it seems it matters. Lol.

Yeah, I agree. The Direct was crap, but I was totally expecting it. You can see they are trying to pretend as if it's all great in Nintendoland and they have us covered, but the reality is that well... Nintendo needs a brand new start. Badly. The only game that got me interested is DQ8 and I'd still rather play it on Vita in higher resolution than the crappy 3DS screen :/ I hated Amiibo being thrown in everywhere and talking about DLC all the time. I was neutral towards Amiibo at first, but after some time and hearing as more games had content and even levels hidden behind this paywall I got to really hate them. To me at this point it's just as bad as when MS was talking about TV at a certain conference...

SF0 looked nice during cut scenes, but as bad as previously during gameplay parts. I see this game as a massively missed opportunity. This could have been another Splatoon-level surprise hit, but looks like a filler instead.

TP HD... It looked fine at first, but after they showed Zelda U right after it, I realised just how little work they put into this port. Seriously, they put as little effort as they could. The art style is so much better than in Zelda U, but you can see the difference in grass being a totally flat texture in TPHD and actually being grass a moment later in Zelda U. It seems to me like they didn't do anything to this game, probably even used the original assets before the GCN/Wii would cut the resolution of textures. How much time did they invest into this port? Two weeks? I'd love to see a comparison of TPHD and Dolphin version of TP, something tells me Dolphin owns the Wii U version big time :/

Zelda U... Didn't like the way Epona looked. The flat colours were awful. The Direct was another proof that TP art style is miles better. At least the graphics level overall isn't as poor as in Star Fox. I expect Wii U games to look better than PS3 games and at least they reached that level here.


In general, Wii U is screwed in an unprecedented way. Next year will be brutal, no home console has ever been treated this badly. Just kill it already, Nintendo! And they didn't even cut the price, the way Sony and MS did. Just be done with it and roll NX out...

3DS is meh as well, but it's its last year, so it's decent enough. Fire Emblem and DQ8 are the only noteworthy games for me.



They better be preparing a bad ass launch lineup for NX and it better come in 2016... Otherwise, the future can be very, very bleak for Nintendo.

Fates being split into two versions wouldn't bother me if the price was more reasonable. If the base game is $40 and each DLC expansion is $20 separately, how is $80 for the whole shebang supposed to feel like a deal? It's the same as buying them all piecemeal. 

- StarFox still looks like a gamecube game and wont be out for half a year

- Twilight Princess HD actually looks worse because now that its so clear you can see how bad the textures are and see that the game has like no bump mapping.

- If StarFox doesnt come out until April when does Zelda Wii U come out? Next Christmas!? Come on thats just stupid.

Cloud in smash while cool was not enough to save this depressing direct. It is only 7 but  I am so sad I just want to go to sleep.

-StarFox looks better, thats good thing, not bad.

-TP HD actually looks noticeably better than TP Wii. https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=pSjP7qxsSzk

-Moment Zelda Wii U was delayed it was clear that be will 2016. holiday season game, like almost every other 3D Zelda game. So I really don't know what you were expecting on first place!?

> StarFox looks better, thats good thing, not bad.

Better than ugly doesn't make it looks good.

>TP HD actually looks noticeably better than TP Wii.

It look the same with higher resolution. Not the great achievement for 10 years old game.

>So I really don't know what you were expecting on first place!?

Early 2016 release, for example.  This year Nintendo live without great holiday titles and feels good.
