Re: Talking Point: Wii U Gamers Have Been Treated Poorly By The Third-Party Retail Scene, But The System Still Brings Joy

JWeb23

I'm a huge Nintendo fan but lets all be honest with ourselves. 3rd parties have avoided Nintendo because Nintendo makes it hard for 3rd parties. One thing I've hated about the Wii and Wii U are the silly gimmicks! Having them as an option is fine but Nintendo's gimmicks are always forced which is why I quickly grew tired of my Wii, the funny thing is that Nintendo still hasn't figured out how to properly use the Wii U's gimmick of the gamepad. Seriously, I've never seen a device that could do so much but does so little.

Let's not forget that Nintendo has been using dated hardware the the past 2 console generations. Wii was a Gamecube with motion control and the Wii U was a Wii with hd graphics. We still get systems that only have 8gbs or 32gbs which is ridiculous for this generation. They need to keep up with the times!

Also...let's not forget that for some odd reason Nintendo fans don't buy 3rd party games. Look at Bayonetta 2. One of the best games on the Wii U and it isn't even at 1 million sells yet people still cry when no 3rd parties come to Nintendo. Why would they come to Nintendo when they have to do extra work to accommodate Nintendo's weaker hardware and gimmick as well as the fact that the Nintendo crowd will most likely not buy it???
