@Action51 Well the problem is that you owned it on Wii, the glitchy version with the three section map. The PS3 and Wii U versions are FAR FAR SUPERIOR, with gorgeous graphics (god rays and motion blur and wet roads and heat haze etc.) and true open world gameplay and camera control.
@BoltedArc Well you are missing out on larger worlds and draw distances and higher spawn egg mob limits! Plus Minecraft is selling a a constant rate. It's still in the top of the AppStore charts!
@Action51 Arkham City drops from 60fps in interiors to an inconsistent 20fps in free roam. Especially in the last mission which is pushing the Wii U's limits (looks stunning but is a slideshow)
@faint Mario Kart at least has COMPLEX driving mechanics unlike a certain customisable racer. Such as drifting, slipstreaming, stunts, spin turbo, boost pads, gliding, and coins and.....
@90sRetroGaming Well I can tell the difference on my 22 inch monitor and so can you. When I turn down the res of the menu screen, pictures look at lot more jagged and blurry. And this game has no AA at all. So expect jaggies everywhere!
@Stomatopod17 @NintendoMonkey The Wii has 88MB of RAM, not enough for the game. Plus I'm pretty sure that the iPad is far more powerful than the S2....
What about the split screen. People have Wii Remotes lying around somewhere.

Re: Shantae: Risky's Revenge Director's Cut is Nearing Release on Wii U
Cool! I tried this game on iOS and never quite got past the first few levels. Maybe the Wii U version can encourage me to try it again.
One thing I hope for is the aspect ratio to be fixed.
Re: Nintendo Announces The GameCube Controller Adapter for Wii U
Alright everyone hold on to your horses!

@SamirMalik Well where is the Wii U variety (no FIFA or MADDEN)?
Re: 3DS Tops Japanese Hardware Chart as Wii U Secures Home Console Crown
@SamirMalik @Farmboy17 HYRULE Warriors and Bayonetta and SMTxFE will save the Wii U?????
Re: 3DS Tops Japanese Hardware Chart as Wii U Secures Home Console Crown
@faint Well as much as I want Mario Kart to sell like hot cakes the hardware does not deserve more collabs (the worst kind of support)
Re: Play: Mario Kart 8 With Nintendo Life in our Launch Party

Re: LEGO Batman 3: Beyond Gotham Looks Out of This World
@Chubblings I have multiple consoles!
Re: LEGO Batman 3: Beyond Gotham Looks Out of This World
@Chubblings I am sure that UE4 can run on Wii U! (It runs on an iPhone 4)
Batman Arkham Knight is UE3 and the Batmobile takes up too much memory. Plus UE3 is inefficient.......
Plus no PS360 either.
Re: LEGO Batman 3: Beyond Gotham Looks Out of This World
@Hy8ogen Well, blame Nintendo for making underpowered systems that can't handle the Batmobile with UE3

@Action51 Well the problem is that you owned it on Wii, the glitchy version with the three section map. The PS3 and Wii U versions are FAR FAR SUPERIOR, with gorgeous graphics (god rays and motion blur and wet roads and heat haze etc.) and true open world gameplay and camera control.
Where is Batman Arkham Knight though?

Re: Talking Point: It's Not Too Late for Nintendo to Join the Minecraft Party
@BoltedArc 50 million sales say otherwise.
Re: Talking Point: It's Not Too Late for Nintendo to Join the Minecraft Party
@BoltedArc They are coming August.
Re: Talking Point: It's Not Too Late for Nintendo to Join the Minecraft Party
@Pod Plus the 360 and PS3 and PS4 and XBO and Vita and iOS versions have all new efficient C++ code and manual saving.
Re: Talking Point: It's Not Too Late for Nintendo to Join the Minecraft Party
@Pod The console versions have limited worlds to compensate for the flash drives in some models. 4J stated this in an interview.
Re: Talking Point: It's Not Too Late for Nintendo to Join the Minecraft Party
@Pod Well there is autosave, and a digital version on 360 and PS3. Even the Vita has it's own version!

Re: Digital Foundry Pins Down Mario Kart 8's Resolution and Framerate
@Nintenjoe64 Wait till you see the analysis of the Wii U version, melting guaranteed!
Re: Digital Foundry Pins Down Mario Kart 8's Resolution and Framerate

Re: Digital Foundry Pins Down Mario Kart 8's Resolution and Framerate
@MadAdam81 @Action51 I knew it was 720p with no AA the moment I saw the screens....
Don't notice the 59fps though.

Re: Digital Foundry Pins Down Mario Kart 8's Resolution and Framerate
@KennyPowers It won't have the 8 player free roam like the next gen consoles
Re: Digital Foundry Pins Down Mario Kart 8's Resolution and Framerate
@JosieC84 Also....actual third party support.
Re: Digital Foundry Pins Down Mario Kart 8's Resolution and Framerate
@gatorboi352 Only TWO games don't hit 1080p
Re: Digital Foundry Pins Down Mario Kart 8's Resolution and Framerate
@19Robb92 Child of Light is more demanding, with a 3D Auroa model and TressFx and dynamic lighting.
Re: Digital Foundry Pins Down Mario Kart 8's Resolution and Framerate
720p, 59fps, no AA at all, bad texture filtering.....
Such a technical disaster....
