It's a bloody joke when you think that this game was GC exclusive. F**king Vita got Revelations 2 but not Wii U, and Wii U has way outsold Vita. Capcom has turned against Nintendo haven't they?
My money for Nintendo will go towards CAPTAIN TOAD, SONIC BOOM, YOSHI'S WOOLY WORLD, XENOBLADE CHRONICLES, ZELDA, NN3DS XL, hopefully PROJECT ZERO 4 if that ever comes outside Japan.
At the moment when I walk in to a supermarket, all I can see is Xbox One and Playstation 4 with their games of choice. No Wii U or it's games. Here's what needs to change
Nintendo should market the system better. I mean TV adds, commercials. Outside online stores I see no sign of Wii U to even exist. That's poor marketing to me already
Mikami, bring back support for Nintendo, man!!! It's bloody wrong to spoil Nintendo fans during GC and Wii era and totally abandon them later when Nintendo's HD system comes out. In the end Wii U was more than capable to run Evil Within and yet we didn't get it. Not to mention RE Remake
Nintendo to be blamed here too. These days 8GB is a bloody joke for a console memory. Though this game would better be released both in physical as well as digital format
Nintendo's marketing strategy has proven to be extremely poor in many cases in the past. It's very simple: if game doesn't get worldwide release it's already a flop.
2016 sounds a bit unreal. Wii U will be long dead by then unless miracle happens and it'll live another few years. Game will be black and white and 2D. I hoped 3D third person game. Sadness indeed.
@TOMBOY25 Showing new hardware means nothing to owners of Wii U since it takes around 2 years for any new hardware to actually come out on sale. In two years there won't be any support left for the system other than indies.
Cool. Wii U sales will do just fine in Japan. Nintendo's competition there will only be PS4 since XO isn't going to do well no matter what. In the West there'll be another story
WTF you guys?!!! All the games we get from our beloved Nintendo is shovelware like that and you're all feeling happy. No surprise many are fleeing Nintendo boat. Couple more Nintendo Directs like the one yesterday and i'll be out of it no doubt.
@datamonkey I agree with everything u say. Though selling wiiu is not a wise move. With new Zelda, Donkey Kong, Metroid, Mario kart, Bayonetta, X, Smash Bross on the way i would not dare to think selling the damn thing
Great!!!!! Same old story again. Metro Last Light, Ghost Recon Online, Crysis 3, Aliens CM (3rd party games that were coming to Wii U but got cancelled)... WTF, Ubisoft?!!
Can't wait for this game, but "No plans" to release in Japan? C'mon how many copies are they aiming to sell if they're skipping Japanese market? It's well known that good exclusives sell systems. Avoiding Japan will not help Nintendo at all.
I doubt it'll work. East Europeans (excluding myself and few others) are least aware of what Nintendo has to offer. Xbox and PS are the names out there. Though I wish Nintendo all the best
"We will try to turn around Wii U and enrich the value of the GamePad" Ha ha. Iwata says that while none of exclusive first party games have anything else but the off screen play to offer.
Next time release powerhouse instead of another outdated system with some gimmick controller. Enough with that "innovation is key to success not the power" point of view. It worked so far but even my phone can outperform 3DS. Wii sold well but soon after people bought it, it was only gathering dust most of the time. How long can this gamble continue?
If Wii U was a powerhouse like XO or PS4, then there would be no problem in turning Game pad into an option. But now it's lagging behind by a lot, so the only feature it has is to offer something unique. Though again Nintendo themselves are making exclusive games that are not offering anything interesting with the new pad. the question again is: What is Wii U's selling point? The exclusives or the new controller? I say that the games are, not so much the controller
Nintendo forgot to make Wii U more Pro controller friendly. Some things are not possible to do without gamepad not to mention that I can't play a game with Pro pad without having the other one on (unless battery of gamepad is flat). Mass effect 3, Batman ACAE, Deus ex... are all best versions of the game when played on Wii U gamepad. Though many other games do not offer anything unique and are just lazy ports which is fine with me as long as I can use Pro controller instead (games like Darksiders 2, Batman AO...)
I blame Nintendo for many bad things that are happening to the system. They f**ked up long before Wii u came out starting with poor specs, confusing name, lack of commercials, lack of exclusives at launch. Most of my mates who play games don't even know what the Wiiu is. How about that?!!
As much as 3DS and Wii were popular, I strongly wish those systems were more powerful. Iwata's "innovation rather than raw power" point of view is somewhat I would call risky these days. If Nintendo doesn't come up with latest in the market hardware, they will continue suffer I believe. I mean look at the XO and PS4 sales this gen

Re: Talking Point: Nintendo's Wii U Struggles Bring a Challenge, Not Doom
