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

I agree, I'd like to see more remasters of the N64/GC era, but that'll be way more time consuming to adapt those games to the modern consoles, so I get that with time that would be less possible... In the end, if Splatoon is ported to the NX, it would attract those people who hear about the game but didn't jump to the WiiU bandwagon. It's logical that some WiiU games will receive remasters, since there's not a lot of WiiU's owners... 

ya the same reason sony gave for ps3 to ps4 ports can be used here

 

These NX ports would be for the people who didnt pick up a Wii U

Remasters or sequels honestly would be better than straight up ports...

They can port all of the WiiU games they like, as long as it's not at the expense of new releases for NX. That was the problem I had with the influx of PS3 remasters to PS4; GTA5, Tomb Raider and The Last of Us ended up being among the most noteworthy games on the new console in its first year.

It's all but confirmed that Zelda will debut on NX, but if ports of Splatoon or Smash end up taking precedence over new software for the console... then we have problems.

I already own 2 consoles and a 3DS, Im not spending another penny on hardware this gen. What with NX replacing Wii U after only a few years, New 3DS, PS4.5, VR and a possible Xbox one revision. I dont care if NX is the second coming of christ, its becoming a very expensive hobby. I will instead play the best Wii U has to offer, try out the cream of Wii U indie titles and play through Wii, DS, GBA, N64,NES and SNES games I missed. PS4 will see me through the rest of the gen and I will see what the big 3 offer in a few years.

i thought you were saying screw them because of a few ports

Sorry pal, I didn't word it correctly. At this time I dont think either Nintendo, Sony or Microsoft have a clue what to do themselves anymore. I hope this industry doesnt over saturate itself with constant hardware revisions etc, money doesnt grow on trees and fans are starting to get priced out of the hobby.

Don't care about the legitimacy of this woman particularly, as this seems quite likely regardless.

Don't think I will be buying any Wii U games until there is confirmation.

You mean good for the gamers? 

For Wii U gamers ? It depends how much they care about exclusives.



Predictions for end of 2014 HW sales:

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

On the other hand, everyone and their mothers were treating it as a negative towards all the other publisher that did so.

Not really. I've seen it praised by fans galore,sony fans,microsoft fans praising it for third party as well

 

but at the same time, im gonna play devils advocate, while you have sony and microsoft fans defending tons of ports to ps4/xb1(while they made fun of Wii U for getting the same ports early on), the Nintendo fans will now be geting the same thing sony/microsoft fans have been getting on ps4/xb1, if this rumor is true, a ton of ''last gen'' ports of the previous console

 

it will be interesting to see all the nintendo fans that were avidly against ports that xb1/ps4 got, now turn face and accept the ports on NX if its true

 

intereresting times await lol

That's not true at all and I'm having a hard time believing anyone is claiming otherwise.  There were a lot of people on these forums taking shots at the PS4 for being a remaster box not all that long ago and I expect to see those same people doing the same thing if it happens on the NX.

Well, if this is true, it would allow me to skip WiiU entirely and go for NX.

Yeah, me too.  I really hope it has 3DS games in addition to NXDS games.  Then I could skip all three and play Fire Emblem on a home console.

Of course, it's also true that I was once moderately excited about getting a Wii U because it meant I could skip the Wii, which I only wanted for a couple of games to begin with.  Honestly, Nintendo rarely has enough of the games I like on a single console so the more games they publish on one console, the better.

From a business standpoint, this is especially true coming off a console with a low user base.

Well, that'd be way too convenient at this point. I would be glad with just the WiiU games.
