What in the world is this. Are you serious Nintendo ? Nintendo you are just so desperate right now it is getting really pathetic. Get real games on your console not this nonsense.
I play it a lot on the Wii U because there aren't many good games for people who love shooters. Still disappointed there is no dlc support for this game.
Love the idea of the E-Shop but Nintendo still lacks good games. It has some but not enough and still lacking in the dlc support area such as ME 3 and Black Ops 2.
Will Deus Ex get people to go buy a Wii U ? Highly unlikely since most have played it on their other console or the pc already. I want to see Skyrim on the Wii U!
Not understanding why devs are dissing the Wii U for dlc and every other console gets support with no questions asked.Are people seriously concerned because Wii U sales are tanking bad ?
It screams innovation no doubt but many devs are too lazy to code for it. That is a shame because a lot of games out there would excel greatly with the Wii U gamepad.
Not to mention a lot of player already have played old ports already on their other console or pc. Nintendo is just desperate to get anything on their console right now.
@Realgamer4life Maybe so but do you actually need more power for Mario and Zelda ? See my point ? It isn't just about being powerful it is about bringing good successful games to your console. Right now Nintendo doesn't have those kind of games because the Wii U isn't selling.
Don't know about last home console but certainly they will always play the 3rd wheel against Microsoft and Sony. The decision to launch the Wii U in Nov was a huge mistake and not having good enough games at launch was another. Nintendo needs to stop rehashing Zelda and Mario. They need a new ip that will attract not just the younger players but the older players as well. You know like what Bungie did with Halo and Naughty Dog with Uncharted.
@Assassin87 You are grasping for straws here. The Wii U may get a boost in sales when Zelda U comes out but that is not until 2014. What are they going to do in the mean time ? I'm not hating on the console but clearly the writing is on the all already. What big time publisher is going to put games on the Wii U when sales are taking badly ? It is just common sense. Nintendo messed up big time and I'll be trading my Wii U in for either a PS4 or 720. I gave my 400 buck support to Nintendo and they failed.
Well lets see, Bioshock Infinite, Tomb Raider, Dead Space 3 and Dark Souls 2 have no plans to hit the Wii U either. I see a trend here. This is what happens when you launch a console too late and miss all the good games.
Zelda U coming to Wii U in 2014 but sad to say 2014 is too late. All of 2013 is just about lost because they have no real first party games that is going to sell like hotcakes in 2013.
There is a lot of things I can personally be dissatisfied with the Wii U but it does have a chance to grow if they get better 3rd party support. I hope they can cause I would have to hate to turn in my console for a Microsoft product.
I really love playing on the Wii U. I think the touch pad is such a game changer on how you play games but come on Nintendo, give us some really good games to play. I would rather play on the Wii U than my pc. I really would but Nintendo needs to bring big time games to the console not just platform games, rehashed ips and year old pc ports.
As said above, a lot of respect for the man but Nintendo needs another person who will lead them into the year 2000. They are still stuck on rehashing Mario and Zelda. Time for something new and a new direction.
How about slashing game prices. i still see Darksiders 2, ME 3 and Batman still being sold for 60 bucks and all of them are old games. I know Ubisoft doesn't own these games but just saying in general. Three hundred for a console is not that expensive. Although dropping a deluxe editon to 249.95 would be a wise move.
It is all about the games Nintendo and you seriously need to bring it big time with good games not rehashed ips and year old ports. I want to see some Dark Souls 2 coming to the Wii U.
You see this is how Nintendo fails. EA doesn't need Nintendo's Wii U but Nintendo needs EA because of the popularity of their titles. Yeah I don't care for EA but Nintendo needs to be smart about this and make common ground with EA so we can get good titles like Crysis 3. Ofcourse though Nintendo messes it up again.
I know this is hard for some to swallow but facts are facts. I got burned when I bought a Wii U thinking it bring more good quality mature games to players but never again will I listen to Nintendo. Lesson learned.
Because Wii U sales are taking why would anyone put the effort into supporting games long term on the Wii U ? Exactly the same reason why we don't get any dlc from Black Ops 2.
@Davidiam007 Darksiders 59.95, Arkham City 59.95, ME 3 59.95. These are old pc ports and over a year old and yet they sell for full price ? Should I even continue with the lack of quality games on the Wii U ? Majority of the games are platform puzzlers. I know it is a console and platform games are popular but you have to stop making for the niche crowd and start making for the masses if Nintendo wants to see sales rise. It is just that simple. It is amazing that fans can see this but yet Nintendo can't ? Perhaps Nintendo needs to get with times and stop rehashing old games.

Re: Dead Island: Riptide Is Skipping Wii U
Ye another example of how poor the 3rd party support is for Nintendo. The original game was actually pretty good.

@Tony_342 Agreed. The targeting and combat felt awful in the demo. It wasn't very appealing.

No but they made Halo and good dev teams don't just all of a sudden go bad overnight. Highly unlikely Destiny will be bad.
Re: Ubisoft CEO Not Satisfied With Wii U Sales
Now you know why Rayman is not an exclusive anymore. Sales are tanking on the Wii U so Ubisoft pulled the exclusive. Can't say I blame them.
