Re: Epic Games: Developers Can Use Unreal Engine 4 For Wii U Titles

@earthwormjimx3 Yes Most Wanted is a pc gaming like,but the pc version is a porting from the other consoles. This means that when pc portings will come from for example ps4, a graphics and texture down grade will be needed. Not to mention other technical downgrades due to limited wii u cpu power. We have to submit to the fact that wii u, compared to the upcoming consoles, is like the "old" wii compared to the last gen consoles. Infact i will buy a ps4 or a xbox720 to place side by side to the wii u, as well as i got a ps3 near my wii.

I tried MH3 demo, and the feeling is to play a 2001 pc game, with low res textures, no antialiasing no pixel shaders.. nothing! Even the pad interface is cut down to 4:3, as the 3ds touch display! And the gameplay: were is the story? A tuttorial... i don't even know how to kill this animals.. and why?? And what these little creatures that jumps around me are? Unbelievable.

@Davidiam007 : PC graphics quality, with only 1GB DDR3 ram avaible?? The same amount of memory, but GDDR5, is located in my radeon 5870, on the other side i have 6Gb ddr3 system ram. As you can see, my pc has less ram than the ps4.
I got a wii u and, unfortunately, i have to admit that the current situation is the same we had with wii, ps3 and xbox360. Both ps4 and xbox720 will have 4 times the power of a wii u, and any third party game developed for wii u will be a scaled down game from the competitors.

I see new games and new ideas in this play4 presentation. New characters and new stories, along with "old" franchises like infamous (wich i really appreciated). This round will be hard for nintendo, they can't simply come out with the old dear zelda. They need to create new characters and new stories and, YES, cool graphics to bring players to their side.
And please.. stop this SuperMarioBrothersWiiUNewYetAgain titles.. simply you don't have more space on the game cover to write it.

Re: Sony Trolls Nintendo Ahead of PlayStation 4 Announcement

Hehehe, after all, they're right. Untill now i'm seeing Mario games only on my wii u. I'm still waiting for something new and decent to play. All games today are remakes, if we not consider Nintendoland. Next new games will be Bayonetta2, Legoland and Wonderfull101. Let's hope for good piece of art. By the way, seems like ps4 will be a good gaming and multimedi aplatform.

Re: Reaction: The Rayman Legends Delay Is a Low Blow, But The Apocalypse Isn't Here

I got a wii u, and i'm disappointed about nintendo support for this platform. Delays, problematic big updates, poor launch titles, bad account management etc etc..
Actually the only platform specific game is nintendoland. All other games are remakes and poor updates (for ex. supermario bross wii u is the same boring mario scaled up to 720p... same gameplay same graphics same characters.. same levels..).
And let's talk about the big gamepad: not so comfortable, but still accetpable design, but the battery....the battery.. it's a shame! It spends more time attached to the battery charger than in my hands. Three ours is the worst wireless gameplay i evere seen in modern consoles. I would have paid 20 more buks for a better battery..
Returning to Rayman i'm boycotting the game, the game developers and ubisoft. Forever. They lost me as a customer.
Nintendo, on the other hand, as a bit more time to adjust this mess, until i will get completely pissed off.
P.s. i'm boycotting any other super something 2d game too, until they will decide to innovate this brand.

Re: So, How Is The Wii U Doing In The UK?

DrSlump

I got a wii u but, after the initial surprise done by nintendoland, no another games captured my attention. All other games are a riedition of old games that are already avaible for other platform and at a lower price or a more complete flavour (mass effect trilogy). At this time, i don't have more reasons to own a wii u. Maybe the incoming titles as wonderfull 101 or bayonetta will wake up my curiosity but these days my wii u is shuttered down...

Re: First Impressions: Monster Hunter 3 Ultimate - Wii U

DrSlump

Compared to the Wii version, and normalizing it by the relative technologies, the Wii version is better becouse of the better job done by developers on using the hardware resources to give a 360° experience. The Wii U version uses the same textures, despite the 2GB of ram avaible, vs the less than 100MB for the original Wii. What a shame.
