Forums - Nintendo - Emily Rogers Rumour: There's a lot of Wii U ports coming to NX

Cloudman said:

Yeah, I think those could be a good start. There's still Pikmin 4 floating around too, haha.

True, I believe it'll be a NX game, so if we have Mario, Zelda NX and Pikmin 4, I'll jump straight on the NX, and that's not precisely too much to ask, but enough to keep me entertained.

Good for NX.

The difference would be that the Wii U is coming to an end, while Vita is still around. It would make sense if they ported games from a dying console that no one cared about. If NX ends up being successful, then you can enjoy ported Wii U games without needing to buy one.

Vita is still trying to be around while companies are pretty much working against it with ports and just moving Vita games to the PS4.

Works for Wii U,but not the Vita.

Remaster / port is always a better option. As people might not like it but this is good for publishers and new platform owners. Because very few people will use backwards compatibility. As for NX this is good news. Though my opinion might be unpopular.

I see the positives of BC, but the truth is that I do not have time for older games whgen newer consoles are released. So yeah for me a remsater is better, especially if it is done well. And Nintendo is usually doing it well. So hooray, I guess. I did not own (and probably wont) a WiiU, but If I buy the NX, I would still want to play some of the bigger remasters.

Works for both since vita is pretty much as dead than WiiU where it matters, in the west. For everyone both werr dead.

I dont think that makes à réal différence for thé buyers who bought à WiiU in 2014-2015, not knowing 2016 would be the last year before first rumors about NX replacing it.



Predictions for end of 2014 HW sales:

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

I think all the Mario games besides SMM won't be ported, most of them sold well enough and aren't the ones that risk to make a loss for the company *hint hint Xenoblade*

                               

I'm not sure but i think that Mario 3D World didn't sell aswell as Sunshine. Smaller userbase didn't help!
Still i think that if you improve the visuals and add online multilplayer you've got a good reason to port the game. I believe the game, with due improvements, can sell even more.

3DW sold more than 4M at retail, adding the digital sales I think it made a really good revenue...

Zelda and Smash seem like a given, but I wonder what the other two are. My guess would be Mario Maker and Splatoon.
My hope would be Xenoblade Chronicles X.

X isn't that far-fetched, the game was downgraded to run properly on Wii U meaning that if NX has more horsepower (which it has to) it might both look and run better...

I assume one of them is Smash Bros with all the DLC and maybe some extras



I see some user saying splatoon, but i believe a second iteration would be acceptable, possible and better. On the other hand maybe Nintendo never excepted it to be such a success and only started to think in the sequel too late.

Smash on the other hand is just too soon for another one, and Mario Kart is almost in the same boat.
Since Zelda is one of the four, the fourth needs to be a Mario game, either SMM or SM3DW.

My bet is:
- Smash: complete edition
- Mario Kart 8: complete edition
- Zelda
- SM3DW/SMM (maybe both)

Other possibilities
- Paper Mario/Xenoblade/FExSMT: Those 3 IPs pretty much is what nintendo has of first party RPG. To have all of them released at the end of Wii U life and not port at least one would mean no first party RPGs on NX for a while. Paper Mario is the obvious front runner, but xenoblade could better showcase the hardware difference. I doubt FExSMT would be ported (by Nintendo at least, maybe ATLUS).

Maybe Nintendo has a cannon FE in development and make this whole statement null, but who knows.

- Wonderfull 101: because i love the game and think this deserves.

FIRST YEAR New games
- Pikmin 4
- A Mario game
- Splatoon 2



if this is true, i want to go ahead and take a stab at the other 3. so maybe...

Super Smash Bros
Bayonetta 2
Splatoon

The difference is that the Wii U is going to be replaced soon, while Vita will still be around for an unknown amount of time. It would make some sense to port Wii U games to the NX, while it would hurting more so the Vita which is still trying to keep going in the market.

I just hope they continue to produce more new games and get some real good 3rd party games, like the games SE are making.
