Re: Soapbox: Nintendo Was Wrong To Turn Its Back On The Wii Remote

APHughes

The Wiimote was used well in Zelda TP, Wii Sports and a handful of other games. The problem with the Wiimote was when they forced it in the dumbest possible ways. The UX was bad for the Wii Menu, Zelda SS and even Punch Out's main screen. Why do I have to point the remote at the screen to select options? There is a Dpad damnit!

Re: Talking Point: The Allure of the Virtual Console and How Nintendo Can Harness It

All of the Wii VC titles should be on the Wii U VC by now. It is perplexing why this hasn't happened yet. The same goes for the 3DS VC which has been dead for quite some time now.

I know many want GC games on the VC but I would rather them release the other back catalog games first and then focus on GC and Wii releases.

Hopefully they will fix this with the NX

Its disappointing that the VC service has been around for nearly 10 years and we are just now getting some big games. Nintendo needs to release more per week and more systems too. Where are the Sega games? Where are the SNES games on the 3DS? I have money to give Nintendo but they seem to not want it.

Re: Satoru Iwata - "There Are Some Reasons Behind" Region Locking

Region Locking means more control for Nintendo and less for consumers. I personally don't care that much about RL but I know there are people who are passionate about it.

The problem with Nintendo is that they hate EU/NA and focus all their efforts on Japan. Look at the VC for a good indication.
