Actually was going to this, I was expecting the gamepad to be implemented well, don't know if thats the case but since the developers decided they would only do a half-donkey'd version, leaving out the online I'll be giving it a miss.
A big shame as I usually make sure I buy 3rd party titles as soon as I can, if they are decent enough to to do my part in showing 3rd party publishers WiiU owners will also by non-Nintendo games.
Well with Warners Lego Batman and Capcom's Resi Evil at least I'm able to still show some 3rd party support at least.

@Peach64 I'm not going to spend hours explaining you on where your looking at this all wrong.
All I'm going to say is there are a load of reasons why WiiU sales have been slow, not least the unknowns about the Ps4 and Xbone.
Your not looking at the bigger picture, your ignoring the fact that this artical highlights one retailers increased sales in 2 days, there are thousands of outlets that would of seen increases and finally the WiiU isn't in competition with the 360 or Ps3.. its in competition with the Xbone and Ps4 and every single WiiU sold is one more than both of them systems and Pricing, Lack of direct hardware backward compatability and restrictions on being able to buy used games or share/swap games with freinds and family members is all going to cause a lot of people to think before buying thier Next console.
Which ever way you want to twist this, its good news for WiiU.

@XCWarrior If like I strongly suspect and would be amazed if otherwise Sony do follow suit and charge a fee for used game to work then yes your right, All retailers will be extremly keen to sell WiiU systems over the Ps4 and Xbone. Its fact that even the online pass system seriously damaged the used game market for those games that require it, and retailers make a much higher profit margine on Used games (not requiring online passes) than New games.
This in itself will be great for WiiU as retailers will stop relying on Nintendo to put the WiiU in the forefront of peoples minds and will do thier fair share to push the system to the forefront.

@Peach64 For a supposed Nintendo fan you really like shooting down any positivity towards the WiiU. I can't remember seeing a single post where your not shhoting down Nintendo or the WiiU.
Fact is from a Single Retail outlet there has been a massive increase in sales, its safe to assume other retailers will see a big increase too. NPD figures only apply to the US, where the WiiU sold very very well at launch, Japan the WiiU is selling pretty good still, EU is a bit of a split depending on region, Uk being the Worst. However This Indicates UK sales within 2 days of Xbone announcment are massively on the rise.
Not to mention Overall World Wide Sales Figures are in the region of the Ps3 and 360 sales figures for the same time period after those systems launched.

@XCWarrior There was the rumour that Sony and Microsoft would both block Used Games. Sony said that Used Games would work on Ps4 in a press statement, but consider Xbone and Ps4 are both considered the lead systems by publishers, meanwhile the WiiU not really getting much publisher love it's safe to assume both Sony and MS have followed suit in terms of combating publishers hate for used game market. EA, the most money grabbing publisher around, who invented the online pass system has now scrapped it and there's no way they would of if they didn't have assurances from Sony that the used market issue was going to be delt with on the Ps4 Hardware... and we all know how EA really do not want to publish on WiiU, the one system that we know has no hardware based anti-used game conter measure.

@GazPlant Most have, but there are still a couple about trying to stop thier cover as a Nintendo fan being blown.

I've been saying this would happen since owning a WiiU. Although I was expecting WiiU sales to increase after e3 tbh.
Thing is Microsoft have let people know the full facts, except price, good and bad about Xbone and Sony have only told people the Good. E3 Sony will be letting people know the full story, and if Sony don't announce a Fee system for used games I would be amazed. Coupled with the limitation of cloud based ps3 game compatability and limited ps3 psn purchases being transferable even more people will looking at the WiiU.
Publishers, mainly EA have been very Vocal With thier Anti-WiiU views, and now we all know why. EA invented the Online pass system to damage used game market and game disc sharing. WiiU will be only system that will allow you to trade/buy used games, share your game discs with freinds and family members without incurring extra costs, and allow you to play games easily from the previous generation. (Generations if you include WiiU VC).

Right call be Capcom. Yes they could of gone ahead with the promo, but then the Press would of ripped into Capcom giving them front page negativity.
Media and Various groups around the world are always looking to blame/criticize the the gaming culture, wether it be a parent claiming 'X' game made their son shoot someone or if a game or some sort of promotion has some sort, no matter how remote, link to a tragidy, or tragic situation.
Besides, Capcom still made the right decision, purly in that it shows respect to those brutaly murdered.

Having brought/played Perfect Dark Zero at the 360's launch I really am not bothered. It was good but never as good as the original, same will be the same on the sequel, especially Rare are not the same people than back when the Original Perfect Dark was released.
Since getting rid of my 360 a couple of years back I'm more bothered that I can't get the Original Perfect Dark on VC, Hopefully Nintendo still have some rights to bring it to WiiU VC, butbI doubt it.

Maybe retailers will start pushing the WiiU more..
Xbox One used game market will be limited, as it has been on games that require an online Pass.
Sony have said Used games wont be blocked on Ps4, but who's to say a fee system wont be in place. EA and other publishers would want the same sort of system on the consoles they consider the main.
WiiU, Used game market un-touched, meaning retailers can easily make money from trade-ins and used game market.
This Also explains why EA and other publishers have been talking down the WiiU, and are reluctant to support the WiiU. Its common knowledge that publishers hate the used game market.

Next Gen Will have the Ps4 world wide in front but WiiU, Xbox One will be fairly even in terms of userbase.
although In each Territory the WiiU will be Japans Lead System, USA will have the Xbox One as its Lead console and Europe's Lead console will be the Ps4.
Just speculative guessing, but Pratcher gets paid to do the same.

So after treating WiiU owners like sh** in one way and another they decided that now it won't upset the partnership with microsoft they will actually tel WiiU owners that some EA games will be released on WiiU.
You know what EA.. Stick em up your booty!

@jpfan1989 Its Not. To be fair nor is the Ps4. Sony are getting round this by allowing ps4 owners to stream Ps3 games via cloud. What ps3 games will be available remains to be seen.

I got fedup with Microsofts Games come second approach that slowly evolved on 360, after seeing the reveal I see the direction is set to continue. Coupled with other factors like having to Pay to play second hand or borrowed games Xbox 1 is a definate all time No for me.
I've still Not seen anything that swayed me to buy a Ps4. I have a Ps3 but only ever play Rocksmith and Since the Ps4 is backward compatible only on games available via cloud I wouldn't be able to play it without suffering the latency issues associated with cloud gaming so there's no point for me. plus there's a possibility that Sony will follow Ms's lead in yes you can play used/borrowed games but for a fee.
I've not played Pc games for over a decade, but I think I will start saving and get myself a decent pc gaming rig for any major titles i'm intersted that don't come to WiiU.
On the plus side, WiiU will start to look a lot more attractive to a lot of current 360/Ps3 gamers.

Another thing EA... When are you going to announce your not supporting the Vita? Just Wondering as Fifa sold sh** on that system, as do most games and it has a lower user/game attach rate than WiiU.

Ps.. So on Nextbox and Ps4 are only going to release a few Ps3/360 ports then stop supporting the systemx untill Sony & Microsofts next systems have a 10 million + sized userbase?.... didn't think so its another EA tool spouting BS excuses to WiiU owners. On the Plus One day EA, you will want to publish on WiiU, and guess what you'd of peed of the WiiU community so much you still won't make any decent game sales while every other 3rd party publisher does meaning then you'll actually have a legimate excuse to not support WiiU. Something along the lines of WiiU owners hate us and simply won't buy EA published games due to our ignorance an deceit.

Considering Sonys PSN still isn't quite upto Microsoft Xbl service, given Microsoft had a 4 year head start over Sony its obvious that Since Wii only had a very basic online system that eStore/Nintendo Network isn't going to be as comprehensive as Xbl and Psn and thier associated online stores.
eStore/Nintendo Network is new and Nintendo will do what Microsoft have done on the OrigInal Xbox & 360 and do what Sony did with Psn on the Ps3... develop the online infrastructure, services and online store.
Its going to take a few years but eStore will build up to whats found on Psn an Xbl and Nintendo Network itself will change offering more features and services over time via updates to the WiiU and Nintendo Network itself.
Don't be suprised to find that over the next few years that Nintendo Network will be offering party chat, cross game invites, account linked drm and a host of other features possibly including an achievment system akin to those found now on Xbl and Psn.
As I say it takes time, Look how long it took Sony to get PSN close to Xbl in terms of services and Psn still doesn't quite match Xbl.

@Banjogeek That rumour is all but officially confirmed, it was part of Nintendo asking several publishers with help creating the Nintendo Network. Ubisoft and EA were a couple of those publishers, guess which one got greedy and thought they could make a bit more money out of the situation.

EA if you read this...
Had you released games that hadn't been released on ps3 and Xbox for past 6+ months or at least priced these older games with some sensibility then you probably would of sold more of your games on WiiU. £50 for Mass Effect 3, when you could buy other versions new for under £30, and buy the Mass Effect Trillogy for the same price on Ps3 as the WiiU Mass Effect3 for example will not give you great sales numbers. That not even taking into account that its the Final Part of a Trilogy story that to get the most out of it you needed to have played parts 1 & 2 to be able to import your saves which did also effect the playstation community who since the release of Mass Effect 2 was always praying for the day Mass Effect 1 would be available on Ps3.
Mass Effect is one example, but All of EA's WiiU games can be used as an example as to why EA games never generated sales on WiiU.

I like the part where EA say 'we still have a strong partnership with Nintendo'
According to EA's definition of Strong Partnership my ex-wife must still be totally blinded by love for me.. lol.

Reality Check, WiiU isn't competing with the Ps3 or 360, Its competitors are Ps4 and Nextbox. Every WiiU sold extends it's lead over it's competitors. Untill Christmas 2014, when all the systems have had a year on the market is the ealiest we'll know the pecking order for the Next-Gen.
Yes Nintendo has made mistakes and combined with various other factors WiiU's missed out on having a free year to exploit potential sales however Come this Christmas and into early next year WiiU will have sold enough units worldwide to easily stay on-top during the Launch Window months of the Ps4/Kinectbox. Nintendo will then, (preferably long before then tbh) need to start fighting and it's going to be tough but if Nintendo capitalize on the WiiU's strengths (Off-tv play, Gameplay possibilities using gamepad, Miverse, backward compatability, no online subscription etc) and the Ps4/Nextbox weakness's (no hardware bc/paid online sub/maybe no used game market and others that may (will) become aparant as more info is released), maybe then the WiiU will be there fending off M$ or Sony from the 2nd place spot. (WiiU's not going to be the lead console, though like Wii not being lead system, it was the biggest selling and WiiU could be same in the long term)

Great News, I just hope Mark Hamill returns as the Joker... but sure I've read he's not somewhere

@evanescent_hero
" Were EA making games for Gen 4, they'd be working on some SNES titles. Actually, probably not, since EA doesn't like Nintendo; they'd be working on SEGA's console."

Thinking back to my Megadrive(Genesis) / Snes days.. Road Rash, Madden and other EA games were released on Megadrive, but I can't remember seeing any EA games on Snes.
Can't say 100% EA didn't release anything on SNES, but if they did, they didn't release many games on Snes compared to Megadrive.

@Kage_88 posted link makes for a great read, http://playeressence.com/microsoft-and-sony-are-closer-to-going-third-party-than-nintendo-lets-get-the-facts-straight/
Thanks @Kage_88.

Its on Hold, but that doesn't mean its cancelled. Probably more sensible way to do things tbh, purly from a technical point its far easier to fix client problems that may appear on the PC version.
Also Ubi May be waiting till the PC version has reached a target level of users so as to make sure the upkeep/running of the servers is viable.

@Roachant Seriously 95% of the WiiU negativity originate from EA and EA published developers. 1% is from Nintendo/WiiU fans who want release dates for big 1st party games and the other 4% is split betwenn a couple of other devs and Sony/Ms fanboy sites/forums.
For instance, EA published Crytek said the cryengine3 doesn't run very well on WiiU.. yet Precursor Games are using it for Shadow of the Eternals game and say WiiU fully supports the engine and it runs fine. http://mynintendonews.com/2013/05/15/precursor-games-cryengine-3-fully-supports-wii-u/
Same will Stand for all those Various Game Engines that WiiU can't supposedly Run.
Shows what a difference the WiiU is capable of depending on if the developer or thier publisher wants to support the system.
If like most people here you enjoy your WiiU console then there is really no need to worry, there is a lot of support for the console, but as is always the case regardless of the topic Bad News always attracts the most media and public attention.
Besides the Kinectbox has already had comments from certain developers about Bottleneck issues, a factor which stopped the ps3 from out powering the 360 despite on paper the ps3 being quite a bit more powerfull, and its not going to be all sunshine and roses for Microsoft or Sony despite what people think or expect.

@Tsuchiya Your right it is just his opinion, But there is something that should hold you back from blurting them onto twitter when you are talking on behalf of the company you work for.
Its called professionalism, Which these tweets shown absolutly non. I early refered to these tweets as something 12yr olds would post on forums, but if I'm honest even most 12yr olds wouldn't sink so low.

To be fair to him although he's wrong about it being gen4 and it is indeed gen8 EA have only been relevent in the games publishing world for about 4 generations.
Which goes to show, since they are now losing a lot of money, making cutbacks, getting Voted Worst US company 2 years running (all the anti gay groups fault nothing to do with EA themselves you understand.. yeh right), generally losing public support and upseting potential customers across all platforms, for various reasons, like bs reasons for no support on WiiU, to always connected games like Sims, that then don't work to more and more reliance on day 1 dlc and micro transactions that Much sooner, rather than later EA are going to go the way of the dodo... a lot sooner than Nintendo will anyway.
Wonder if he or EA realise that statments like this could potentially damage sales and public relations on all platforms. There are Many fans of Nintendo that also own other platforms, potentially making them think twice about supporting EA in anyway on any platform that person may own. I assume they do otherwise the tweets wouldn't of been removed.

@edhe Are you EA's Public relations manager by chance prepering the press official release on the matter by chance? lol

Its Obvious the part about Nintendo eStore offerings is a direct dig because Nintendo didn't let EA control it with Origin.
The whole reason behind the u-turn regarding EA's support of WiiU.
And yes theres those that don't believe this is the reasoning, ok, but why is it EA chose thier stance before the WiiU had even released or at the very latest the end of 2012? (WiiU initial launch figures were strong) If they had only recently decided to stop supporting the WiiU, there would of been more EA games already in development before thier 'no longer supported' announcment which would of still been released so they could recoup at least some development costs.

LMOA!! Seriously, I can't believe a senoir exec at EA would resort to Fanboy comments more often found on forums made by 12yr olds who's mummy have brought them a Xbox/Playstation for christmas...
Pretty sure EA will announce that his Twitter account had been hacked and it was the hacker who sent out those tweets.
It will be total BS of course, much like thier public reasoning for not supporting Nintendo/WiiU.. if there was any credability in thier reasoning they would not of be supporting the Vita, and they would only be thinking of releasing a few Ps3/360 ports on Kinectbox/Ps4 untill the userbase figures have reached a high enough level.

@MrGawain Fair enough, I wasn't quite sure if original post was having a dig or not tbh, but obviously not.
And as you say its Nice that EU is getting some Nintendo love for a change.

@MrGawain '1: Sega is making 2 Sonic games exclusive to Nintendo. Another Japanese company sitting on the Nintendo side of the fence.' - You Mean a lot of Western publishers are avoiding the WiiU and putting all thier faith in MS/Sony is exceptable but not the other way round then?
'2: Luigi will not just be DLC. This suggests Nintendo isn't as confident about it's e-shop/needs more games on the shelves.' - You mean like Rockstar when they put Red Dead and GTA4Dlc on a Playable stand-alone disc?.. both which were not 'available for a limited time' As luigi will be on disc.
'3: Europe get Pikmin/101/Luigi before America. This tells us Nintendo loves Europe more than America' - Except nearly evey game goes to Japan first, Then most of the Time US gets new games before EU and by extension Australia.

This direct was the Warm-up act, before the main show.. the E3 Nintendo Direct, Good to see a healthy Nintendo/Sega partnership hopefully it will become something that will bring plenty of Nintendo Exclusives... (WiiU exclusive Shemnue Remakes please Sega).
On another Note the Playstation Exclusive Yakuza was anounced of the Japanese ND, including a Bundl.. lets hope its makes the transition over to the Western hemisphere.
http://mynintendonews.com/2013/05/17/yakuza-bundle-announced-for-japan-coming-to-wii-u/
As a collective all the Nintendo Directs show the start of a very postive time for WiiU owners.

Since on WiiU VC the youngsters can save Super Metroid anytime they want, rather than only at Save Stations which you had to find, its already Easier than ever.
Maybe Nintendo needs to patch it so that an ai controlled Samus completes sections when ppl get stuck, like in NSMBU ai luigi... should kees the kids happy.

@Caryslan Sony was working to develop the cd drive for snes but sony pulled out and and then worked what they had learned into developing the Ps1. http://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/SNES-CD
EA actually Stopped all development of games on the Original Xbox for a period of time,so yes it did go this far. The reason was because MS Refused EA to right to charge for online access to thier titles independently.. Origin imbedded into Nintendo Network is to primarily have control of digital content, thus EA getting a cut of the money for the distrubution of non EA titles aswell as obvious increased profitibility of EA digitaly distributing thier own WiiU content themselves.
Nintendo actually requested help with Nintendo Network from EA, Ubisoft and a few other select publishers, with thier own online infrastructures. EA was the only ones who wanted to get thier own online infrastructure imbedded into the Backbone of Nintendo Network. Its no secret about this fact the only secret is the 'real' reason why EA have done a U-turn on the 'unprecidented partnership'.
MS and Sony didn't need help in creating a proper online game infrastructure for obvious reasons, thus EA didn't get any chance to try to implement thier Origin service, which wasn't even called Origin back then, nor was it as structured as Origin is now.
Details have yet to emerge of what excactly the EA-MS recently announced partnership is about, Never Know Origin/Xbl could be intergrated in the not to distant future. Seems a coincidence that EA drop online passes, MS-EA come to a partnership and Nextbox is rumoured to not play used games.

Hoping to hear plenty of good things, especially want to see if there is any credibility to these rumours from someone who supposedly works at Nintendo, and Who has been right in the Past, and according to some of the comments, is quite a reliable source of leaked info.
Just take the info with a pinch of salt for now though.
http://nintendoenthusiast.com/16953/e3-rumour-retros-project-new-nfc-compatible-ip-from-nintendo-final-fantasy-remake-star-wars-wii-u-more/

This is why companies like Ubisoft could clean-up on WiiU. On other consoles what ever they release has more games from other companies to compete against but on WiiU having less competition I wouldn't be suprised if UbiSoft actually make more profit from WiiU software sales in the long term.

If a VC Game is 60hz then great, but if its 50hz then its going to be the same as it was originally in UK so in terms of reliving games as they were originally, it is.
Either way I personaly don't get too hung-up on the 50/60hz issue.
However being Forced to have foriegn subtitles, which were NOT forced in the Original UK version is not acceptable.
Luckily there are very few subtiles in Super Metroid but I hope this practice doesn't become the norm for EU VC releases.

@TreonsRealm "One thing that never ceases to amaze me is that critics of the console don't consider the fact that the machine is often rendering games for 2 independent screens at the same time through a wireless connection no less. In some cases such as Call of Duty and Sonic Racing, it is doing this for 2 separate players simultaneously. It may just be me but that seems a bit intensive for the unconfirmed specs that hackers have supposedly discovered (a 1.24 ghz processor?)."

I've never thought that this was the true running speed of the cpu, I still believe if this figure is true its the idle speed. For just the reason you stated.

At e3 2011 Ghost Recon & Darksiders was shown for WiiU, but because the Dev Kits were underclocked the version shown were running on Xbox 360.
http://wiiudaily.com/2011/06/wii-u-hardware-at-e3-was-underclocked/
With a fair reports also suggesting developers had to work on underclocked hardware into 2012 Nintendo definatley have history.
System updates to improve system performance, has to be with either the cpu, gpu, or ram allocation and in a smaller part OS optimisation. Since the last update every game I have played the initial splash screen has been and gone much quicker, and games loading load times have been reduced, even LCU which although still has the longest load time says somethings definatley been altered in someway.
Its possible they have done something to the cpu/gpu, but doubt the scale as stated, (although it would be great) but I actually wonder if, Since its a 2-Stage system performance improvment update, the First one was for OS/general system optimisation, and Resererved Ram re-allocation, (Letting games have use of some of that 1gb reserved for the system operation), and the second part is for cpu/gpu un-underclocking or some Overclocking, what ever the case may be, which could take a bit more time to get to a optimum balance of Performance, Heat Generation, Power Draw, and System stability.
Especially if Nintendo are being cautious with the WiiU. Maybe due to the compact design and potential problems caused by heat generation and possible extra power requirements they don't want to risk having unreliability problems like seen in the early days of the 360.

Afterthought... could this rumour be be quoting Nintendo's Target figures for Cpu/GPU output? Its likely that if any actually performance increase as this rumour suggests is true that at least some developers would of been informed of at the very least the target Nintendo are trying to reach, and possibly getting updates out for the dev kits. Probably making these developers abide to Non Disclosure terms.

@JSuede NeoGaf is the last place to go to check anything to do with Nintendo. I'm dubious of the increased figures, but would't be suprised if there has been some increase.

@thelink You could be spot on with that theory.

Most of these titles will be eStore downloads, they are currently doing a Vintage Sega line, Which see's Dreamcast games getting The HD makeover. Jetset Radio was released on other platforms a while ago, along with a couple of other games.
Be great to have Shemnue games on WiiU, that could use the gamescreen quite usefully.

Amout of Ram allocated to the System/Games & Cpu & Gpu clock speeds can be altered with Firmware updates. To find extra performance this along with optimizing the OS is the only way it can be done. the Supposed increase in Cpu is doubtful, maybe its been upped to just under 2mhz range, think from the power usage/heat generation side of things and WiiU's compact design.
Since this performance update is being done in two stages, and the second part is due in the summer it would make sense that Nintendo are altering clock speeds, but are Testing to see try and figure out whats the best balance between extra performance, heat generated, power consumption, and reliability.
Nintendo arn't going to say excactly how the are optimizing system performance, but maybe after the summer update developers will be given information on new clock speeds, its possible some devs have information on intended speeds now but are tied to NDA, maybe upping the 'spec' so to speak is part of Nintendo answer to get those devs who think the cpu is too slow on-board.
But Maybe its all rubbish though, and any/all optimizations are to do with the Systems OS.

Pretty sure it the lack of eStore compatability with Season Passes, and waiting for all characters to be released on other platforms so a cheaper bundle can be offered on WiiU is the cause of the delay. At least we'll know for sure soon(ish).
Nintendo are still in 'work-in-progress' mode with eshop, and Nintendo Network come to that but hope they get eStore to accept direct communications from games, thus bringing the eStore compatable with Season Passes pretty soon.. like Summer Update time.

If eStore accepted Season Pass pretty sure most games would have dlc support, season passes are the prefered way to entice people to buy dlc by publishers. However Just wondering would the lack of game to eStore communication which stops Season Pass compatability be the reason why WiiU games don't have online passes, if so a negative for gamers but a more 3rd party freindly system(discouraging 2nd hand sales). If estore got season pass compatability chances are Online Pass codes would also find thier way to WiiU.

Nintendo has to open up to DLC, its the only way forward, especially if they want more 3rd party support.
It's a fune line to tread though, MS, Sony and almost every publisher has in a lot of peoples opinions have over stepped the mark as to whats considered to be acceptible dlc, and what should of been available from the start.
especially when the supposed dlc is just a key to unlock on disc content, and then there's the awkward matter of Micro-Transactions.
EStore seems to be limited in that it doesn't allow games to have direct access to it, which season passes need to operate.. or have done so far on ps3/360. Games need to be able to link directly to eStore firstly, so publishers can offer the favoured season pass discounts, then I think we'll see lots more dlc from 3rd party publishers, wether the dlc is wort it or not people will decide for themselves, and then all we can hope is Nintendo themselves keep some of thier morality, and make any dlc they create truly worth while.

Its not what activision are saying thatscthe problem, they are saying numerous reasons why, they as I and others said they have brought it on themselves.
However Media sites (inc nl) have made sure the headline is WiiU hate enough to keep the sites traffic up.

I'm in Shock..
a headline that isn't aimed at directing the wiiu hate traffic
Its obvious this was a biggie for capcom on 3ds and WiiU, leys hope MH4 gets WiiU And 3DS exclusivity announcment at E3. ( yes I know its not been announced for WiiU at all yet)

Headlined to direct traffic, Activision had a bad year, but as the article say numerous factors atributed to why.
Tbh Activition blops2 didn't sell well mainly because most people already had it on other systems, alot of whome already invested in the season pass and then those on the fence waiting to see if dlc would come didn't get a reason buy it.
Activision thought blops2 would be thier big earner on WiiU, it wasn't and other games like the technically poor Spiderman game just didn't warrant purchase due to being old games with no improvment over other the versions. (spiderman screen tearing for example).
They also excluded Australia for most releases.
In short thier Issues with WiiU have been brought on by themselves.
Same as thier reliance on WoW, and when ever theres a new console generation started, all games sales drop, as people are trying to decide wether its worth buying games on a more stricter bases, especially this time around with the rumoured no backward compatability on Kinectbox and the cloud only backward compatability on ps4.
