Forums - Nintendo - Now Yoshi Whooly World is coming to the 3DS, why did I buy a Wii U?

Xenoblade Chronicles X, Bayonetta 2, Tokyo Mirage Sessions, Fatal Frame: Maiden of Dark Water, Fast Racing Neo and Splatoon say hi!

Wii U was a huge disappointment. I'll never buy a Nintendo console again.

I own both a Wii U and a 3DS and I don't have a problem with these ports.

I've never had a problem with ports in general whether it has been on PS4, Vita, XB1, Wii U, 3DS, NX, etc. We know new games are coming anyway and it's not like main teams are wasting their talent and resources as the ports are often done by 3rd party studios like Tantalus Media, Bluepoint Games, Sumo Digital, Sanzaru Games, Armature Studio, Straight Right, etc.

 

I just think this shows that it would make sense for Nintendo to secure a shared library between their next handheld and home console. Wii U and 3DS already have many games that are more or less similar in gameplay and/or visual style.

I just wanted to say that is one hell of a post.  I don't think the post could have been done better.



who specifically bought a Wii U for Yoshi anyway?



I was hoping it would be Tropical Freeze to be honest

Releasing it on 3DS does not remove it from Wii U.

It's like Xenoblade X, the main reason I bought Wii U. It wouldn't make me feel upset if it came out on NX after. I would be disappointed if it didn't re-release in some form.



I describe myself as a little dose of toxic masculinity.

At least Splatoon won't get ported..

Rumors says it'll be one of the first games on the NX

Wasn't that an Emily Rogers rumor? Maybe it's not too accurate..

I bought a 3DS for Resident Evil Revelations, Smash Bros, Monster Hunter 3 Ultimate, Gunman Clive, Gunman Clive 2, Shantae and the Pirate's Curse, SteamWorld Dig and SteamWorld Heist, then they got released on Wii U, now I regret my buy ;)

I dunno, there are so many rumors posted here I don't even know where they come from XP

The day the NX gets revealed will be a legendary day...... Just joking, the rumors won't stop!

Do you think it'll have the "secret sauce" theories once we actually know the details?

Secret sauce? Are you talking about the SCD? The NX might use them, but I wouldn't be surprised nothing comes out of it. If only I could usee the future!
