Topic: Why no save state in Wii U games?

They really need to implement save states in Wii U games. The Bowser battle in Paper Mario Color Splash is impossible without save states. It's not right to force players to be right when it comes to timing or can't beat a game just because the timing is off. If they can do save states for older games there's no reason why it can't be done for Wii U games.

For real?

Sure there is a good reason. The Switch is coming out in 4 months. Meaning that development is pretty much done for the Wii U.

A lot of games will let you open the menu and save anyway. There are your save states.

Get better at playing games.

Problem solved.

Git gud, bruuuuh

Yeah, it's totally not fair when a game gives you a challenge

Now we just need @ogo79 to pop in here and tell us how manly he is and doesn't use save states.

whatever moron actually thinks i beat hard games on my own is an idiot.
like everything else in life i bribe people and pay people to do things i dont want to do.

get real

Seems to me the problem isn't the save states. You're just terrible at playing.

Don't get the Trauma Center series, you'll be ripping your hair out by the final mission.

@Luna_110 That may be true but my gaming time is kind of limited so unfortunately don't have the patience to fight the same battle over and over. Plus the last battle is hard to anticipate when Bowser attacks since it keeps showing him charging up an attack. Not sure if the game will adjust the difficulty of the final battle after multiple failed attempts like it does for that ship voyage level. Why did they discontinue the super play mode that was introduced in DKC Returns? I had to cheat my way through Snifit or Whifit level by using my cell phone to take photos and videos throughout the challenge.

Play Animal Crossing. That game is a snoozefest when it comes to difficulty.
@bezerker99 amiright?

I dunno, Smex bro. I been playing Animal Crossing New Leaf everyday for last 3+ years and I still haven't beaten that janx!!

Hardest.game.EVER!!!

There's strategy guides like game faqs online, tip videos/walkthroughs on youtube, miiverse tip sections to help you with video games and like this one https://www.nintendolife.com/forums/wii-u/paper_maio_color_spl... and there's also practice to help provide you with the strength to help you defeat that dastardly video game roadblock. Make use of those provided!

I thought he was talking about Wii games on Wii U.

What console has natively supported save states? It defeats the purpose of game design breaking every new game on your system. Cheating is only optional in older games as a way to entice you to play them again....you can get the nostalgia trip with out dealing with any difficulty or challenge unless you want it.

Wii U needs a rewind button as well while we're at it.
