LOL funny news after i just preordered a game from Amazon for Wii U.
It is true fact of the matter is they have the most sold consoles in the new race and have the software to make the platform even better this year. Media hate the Wii U due to directs. I know this because it means they get less money when Nintendo go in house and other companies pay the real cash for news coverage.
Hmmmmmm interesting week really, I sense a direct due to the fact there is no new content.
However with the financials coming up I don't expect anything at the same time. Ill pick up the Giana Sisters and Runner 2 as the discount makes them way more appealing!
@Kolzig Agreed about the smart phones comment, its quite hard to make, I saw another peson mention Nes Remix is a good alternative. I have to admit thats a good turnaround that won't mess with the classics but is new enough for people to care!
No worried about the share price as a direct will bring them up and then its just and up and down spiral as usual!
Im very shocked how bad the releases are, they are slow from other companies.
The main problem is the VC releases though, Nintendo need to pump content to this device as much as they can! People above saying it won't help are actually being ridiculous as that is content for the Wii U! It may not be new software to sell units, but it adds to the library and the service!
I suspect they have slowed down to sort out the Accounts situation and get it working for all the people who purchase on the eShop
@Maustallica Completely agreed, it is way more complex for the TVii feature across Europe. They just need to remove the button and give a specific direct when its added, people will forget about it.
Nintendo probably had a plan, but like they said the Internet Features are not being used by people so why spend so much time.
lol its an interesting piece, I think it covers too much and too briefly but at the same time just shows you can get away with saying anything you want these days!
Well well well, EA news again. Its a shame really as I'm in the U.K and love Fifa, shame they screwed us so much I won't buy it again!
BTW Mass Effect is great on the Wii U only issue is that everyone already had it, need for speed great on Wii U but again everyone already bought it! I bought Fifa but wow that was a pile of ****** it was Fifa 12 with some Wii U support which was ok I did like a few points but it doesn't change the fact I played the game a year and a half before!
I think Nintendo fans just need to forget EA if they come back thats fine people will buy if the game is released at the same time as others!
@D3athBr1ng3r187 was anything I said incorrect? Glad to make u laugh twat.
lol think about what u said mate I have a ps3 and xbox360 and getting a ps4 its not the point at all simple as the people who have a Wii U should buy it why not. What was the point of buying the new console if you don't want to use it
@SCAR392 Would love them to release DLC, its the only worry with buying this game on the Wii U. The hopes are that Infinity Ward would like to support the console as the fan base is quite large!
I like the review, but it actually has some serious faults.
First of all the pick ten system is still in the game, if you remove a gun or both you have more slots for perks, flawed point which is misleading.
Also the extinction map is a different game all together like left 4 dead with a class system and the ability to play with people online usually a 1000 at least everyday!
Also the game modes are not explained in any way Blitz and Search and Destroy are not the only new game modes, I play everyday with over 1500 on a day its a great mode that has a great fan base.
I think it would be safe to say this is the best First Person Shooter on the Wii U which is also the only one that has a great online system that you can get into games quickly. It is unique in the sense that Nintendo has nothing like this other than the Call of Duty series. It is a shame that people are not open to this on most review websites, however with so many people playing this online and the only competitive game on the Wii U I am shocked to see a 6/10!
Disappointed with the lack of embracing the series which is actually pushing the Wii U the most with a huge online, most modes in a single game, lots of different control schemes, off tv play. It is the only complete game on the Wii U that actually is like this generation. Shame most Nintendo fans don't see this!
BTW I love Pikmin so its not a troll its just an opinion!
Wow actual DLC, shame my priority on the game is lower due to other releases. Also the game is more expensive (UK) than the other versions which is just sad really.
The game has no support its true, but the reason for this is no1 buys it!
How do you fix this? Buy the game? Not support the game? sounds like chicken and egg!
One thing I would say is that Nintendo fans do not look at the positive of Ghosts at all:-
-Off Screen Play -Motion Controls -Split Screen with Gamepad -Good Framerate
Is that not a good deal? I think motion control is very unique as well as the features above (split screen with Gamepad is amazing!). However no DLC is a sad point and it annoys me each time, however it stops me from spending loads of money on COD and still enjoying the game!
Some things I hate about Ghosts Wii U:-
-No marketing -No DLC -No stock anywhere -The other versions are a lot cheaper!
Of course its going to sell better on the other consoles they have a much higher fan base, but if you have both consoles what do you choose? The COD fan base basically grows each year eventually the Nintendo COD fan base can get large enough to warrant those features plus all the exclusive ones. I for one will support it on the Wii U as its a little fresher with the gamepad stuff and generally its new players.
@Titanics It think its an important article with the Disney stake to take into consideration. However with the amount of the high profile games they have Nintendo is the one missing out, let us not forget that
Its quite funny, but EA simply don't care for Nintendo. The sales figures posted recently do not actually mean anything as they have no new games with Nintendo. The 3DS is actually an abandoned platform for most of the larger companies as well.
It would be great if we could get FIFA and Battlefield, however if they give gimped versions, whats the point in wanting them to come?

Rumours suggest CryEngine 3? Is this confirmeD?
I like the rebrand, its odd at first but quite needed! I hope this is similar to Donkey Kong 64!

Re: Review: Unepic (Wii U eShop)
@Mahe very good question, I would expect you can as its a multi platform release but no idea yet! Any to confirm?
Good review and more about the features like the gamepad are welcome!

Re: No Game Content "Hostile to China" Will Make It Through As Ban Lifts
Good news for Nintendo, they should create even more sales for the Wii U by the time they get up and running.
Could be really good news for the company and the Wii U selling even more units!
Re: Silicon Knights Loses Appeal in Epic Games Lawsuit
To be honest I agree with an earlier statement, if the main game they made was on the Gamecube whats so sad about this.
Also they started it by suing the Epic, Epic counter sued and they lost. I take that as all their fault.
The shadow of eternals thing was quite hilarious as it failed multiple times!

Re: Nintendo Outlines Details of Third Wave of Pikmin 3 DLC
Def buying it, love how they are supporting Pikmin, I don't want anymore bingo levels however online play for it would be an absolute blast to play!
Also possibly Story DLC but maybe they are already planning this would be great to keep supporting it!
