Re: Ubisoft Refuses to Comment on Watch_Dogs Wii U Cancellation Rumours

turnmebackwards

I was thinking the other day it would not surprise me if they cancel this. I'm surprised Ubi-soft even supported the console this long. After poor sales of all there games apart from Rayman Legends. To release a massive game like Watchdogs on the Wii U to sell the least amount of copies compared to all other consoles.

Everyone has been saying since day one the Wii U will pick up do better more people will support it. While others say Wii U is doomed! I've been hanging in with the Wii U since it's launch hoping it will pick up do better but I'm highly doubtful. Even Nintendo won't commit to it & give it a year plan of games & now Watchdogs could be canceled it's not good.

Re: UK Retailer Argos Drops Wii U Premium to £179.99

I'm not surprised it's not selling the system seemed rushed on release & was not ready. It was slow many bugs & problems the argument it does not have many games can't really wash as both the PS4 & Xbox One are having the same problems lack of games & Nintendo has a year ahead of them. Both the PS4 & Xbox One is miles ahead of the Wii U technology wise & the PS4 was around the same price as Wii U on launch. People just don't seem to care about Nintendo anymore in the home console market. They should have a clear outline what they will be releasing. I brought the console about 13 months ago & after playing Super Mario U & Zombiu I was wondering what I'd be playing next. It's the same situation now I've pre-ordered Donkey Kong Wii U which I'll most likely be done with in about a weekend as I guess will take about 8 to 12 hours to finish. Then what Mario Kart maybe? Smash Bros maybe? We don't have no third party coming apart from Watchdogs / Project Cars which would not surprised me if they cancel the Wii U versions. People need to see that games will be coming just saying 2014 or 2015 or showing a game once then we never see it again aka Yarn Yoshi, Shin-Megami Tensei vs Fire Emblem, Monolith Soft X & Bayonetta 2. We need to know when to expect all these games to have any sort of hype or something to look forward to. Next thing Nintendo will do is try re-brand the Wii U or make another console knowing Nintendo it will be mini this light that & will most likely fail just look at the Wii Mini released at the same time as the Wii U :S
And why do you sit on a massive history of NES / SNES / N64 / Gamecube / Wii games these could all be released on the Wii shop & if priced right would only help the Wii U but nope we will release one game a week if your lucky from the NES or SNES back history.

Re: Satoru Iwata Explains Reduced Projections and "Large Margin" 3DS and Wii U Sales Misses

Nintendo have all the cards but they never play them get a good selection of SNES - N64 - Gamecube - GBA games on eshop it will attract more people. Also get more realistic prices on the eshop & give a year plan for 2014. Nothing has a release date apart from Donkey Kong which does leave me wondering what I'll be playing after that as just saying 2014 means nothing & most likely will get delayed. I've owned the Wii U since launch window & only been couple months where I've found a lack of games. Now coming into 2014 it's back to how it was last year unsure on what games will be coming out during the year & nothing is given a release date.
People must get there Nintendo fix from the 3DS because if you look at how well the PS4 & Xbox One has done even on launch it's out sold the Wii U massively. But then on the other hand the 3DS has out sold the Vita.

@JustinH
I got it for a Christmas present I was so gripped by the game really enjoyed it. Loved how the gamepad was a map & really helped me plan my moves. Anyone thinking about getting this do it's such an epic sci-fi game. It's cool that you can keep all the augmentations onto a new game once finished as well makes me want to play it again.

Re: Feature: The Biggest Wii U Games of 2014

turnmebackwards

Most looking forward to -

1st - Hyrule Warriors
Love this style of game so mixing it with Zelda I can't wait.

2nd - Mario Kart 8
Got a 3DS XL for Christmas with Mario Kart 7 if it's as good as 7 we are in for a treat.

3rd - Donkey Kong Country: Tropical Freeze
Only a month to go already got it on Pre-order with ShopTo for £31.85 I'm sure it will be a classic platform game.

4th - Monolith Soft's X
I feel the Wii U is lacking a solid RPG game as not a fan of Monster Hunter I'm hoping this will be a game I can get into.

5th - Watch_Dogs
Mixed feelings about this game unsure if it will live up to hype but hopefully it does.

6th - Project CARS
Hoping for a true driving sim from this game.

7th - Bayonetta 2
Will only interest me if they release Bayonetta 1 on Wii U for a realistic price if not I'll give it a miss.

8th - Super Smash Bros.
I might stand alone in this but I'm not a fan of Smash Bros never have been.

Would like to see a new Starfox game the most & F-Zero but think it would be best to do a F-Zero game for 2015 as Mario Kart will be all I need in 2014 racing wise maybe Project Cars if turns out to be good.

Re: Nintendo Recreates Super Mario 3D World Through Shadow Hand Puppetry

@CountWavula
I've always been a 2D Mario fan Super Mario World on SNES being my most played & loved Mario game. I could never really get into Mario 64 as much & didn't like Sunshine on Gamecube. The Gamecube being my last Nintendo console until now the Wii U & the main reason I brought the Wii U was New Super Mario Bros. U which I loved & also really enjoyed the Luigi U game which came out couple months back. So thought it was time to give a 3D Mario game ago again played about a hour & it's great

Re: Black Friday Madness Arrives in the UK, Too

turnmebackwards

I ordered Deux EX & Rayman couple weeks back it seems they have endless offers for all Wii U games past week. And I've took the bait at the wrong time it would seem. Was going to order Splinter Cell from Zavvi at £14.98 or 2 for £25.00 but going to hold out & see what Amazon offer it at today.

Re: Talking Point: The GamePad and its Role Defining the Wii U

turnmebackwards

The control is what made me dig deep & buy the console in the first place. I love the off screen play & using it for the internet along with the features it offers in some games. But with you saying above calling it Wii 2 or Wii HD I think a better name would have helped the sales & avoid the problem even today still people thinking it's the same console as a Wii.

Re: Out Now: The Legend of Zelda: The Wind Waker HD

turnmebackwards

Just opened up my Zelda Limited Ganondorf Figurine edition but sadly I think the figurine is poorly painted mine has much paint missing & odd colour paint marks on it Also has a really odd black mark / scratch on middle belt part of him. Really not worth £60.00 hopefully when I get some time free from work next week I'll enjoy the game.

Re: Mario and Luigi Wii Remote Plus Controllers Jumping to Stores

turnmebackwards

Huh $39.99 retail price so when they come to Europe that will turn into £39.99.
Currently I can pre-order Wii Party U with Black or White motion plus remote for £34.99 hopefully the Mario & Sonic at the Sochi 2014 Olympic Winter Games which is said to come with a Blue remote will be around the £34.99. So $39.99 for a special Mario or Luigi remote seems a bit much.

Re: Poll: Would You Buy Grand Theft Auto V On Wii U?

turnmebackwards

Brought it on PS3 & I don't think the Wii U could handle it firstly it would not even fit on the basic model due to being 8gb needing to be installed. Also I believe games can't be installed from disc on the Wii U so would not even work on the premium console.

Next nearly a year since release the console still has many bugs & freezing issues with games you just have to look at the problems with the new Splinter Cell game on Wii U. Along with many frame rate problems on the Wii U I just hope the next update improves all of this.

Due to knowing all since because owning a Wii U since launch I'd still have got it on PS3 as more reliable / stable console.

Re: Soapbox: Why Grand Theft Auto V Isn't For Me

turnmebackwards

Ugh what a silly article fair enough you'd rather play Zelda then GTA. But don't make a massive deal about it. Just accept it's never coming to Wii U doubt the Wii U could even handle it hell the game could not even fit on the basic Wii U.

It's a landmark in gaming history I love Mario as much as the next guy but it's GTA time in the line light as mainstream or as popular a game it is just accept it.

Don't just all start patting yourself on the back "Like oh I only like saving princesses"
