a lot of people buy games because of the multiplayer features.... and of course wii u does not get it... why? because then people wont buy it for their damn ps3 or xboxes.
it is the same in Denmark... most of the stores here dont even have a single game to show the customers in store.... it is either out back or they dont have it at all.
but i see a lot of ps xbox games... it is a shame really... it is almost like they are getting money for not showing the nintendo stuff... people cant even see the wii u or try it... and if they have games for the wii... they are probably 10£ more expensive.
i have not tried any of the batman games.. are they good ?
it is sad that wii u will be missing some features (as always).... although i dont really trust the wireless network in the wii u when gaming online in FPS games... why the ..... not make a RJ-45 port???!!!
i hope the wii u will have better sales in the time to come... with the special bundles (as they should have done to begin with) and the new good games... wind waker and all that
if violence in a game is a problem ... then there is something wrong with you.
sick people see violence all over, and if they do violence themselves it is because they are sick... nothing to do with the games / movies what so ever.!
when i bought the wii u (the day it came) i was told no mario bundle would be released... and now this!!! i would have waited for this bundle if i knew this... i have my old SNES mario bundle.... i collect this.. and my girlfriend collects Zelda... so this means we will buy two more damn consoles just to get the boxes
i know..but if wii u is to survive by 99% of games like this... then most people would go for another console.. this is probably fun enough for some time... i dont argue with that... i just want some more dedication from the devs to the wii u
i must admit that the wii was not a great machine when it came to GFX and POWER.... and i have not seen many big games for the wii.. like Assassins creed, call of duty and all those good looking 3d games.. i think that is still haunting the wii u...
and yes... i share your opinion about digging into the console... it is more complex..
install base and such comes over time.. and with good support.. it is a unique machine and if there were some advertising for it (also that it is a "green" machine.. power consumtion is very low) and good games to support it (no bad ports and such) then it would be improved over time...
i am just sad for nintendo.. i have always loved their games.. if they would just wake up and show it to the people out there.... it is a good machine...!
i dont want to buy a ps3 or xbox... just to be able to play some new games... and good games from a 3rd party dev. :/
nice to know... i have bought all the ubisoft games for wii u... and this is the thanks i get.! EA made bad excuses of games with the wii u.... ubisoft made it better.. and now this... i thought rayman was having pretty good sales on the wii u... i bought it as soon as it came out also.. just to support...
what will be the next thing that happens ?
i almost regret my buy of the wii u.. i bought it for 300£... and i feel that it is a complete and utter waste... almost as for now :/
i like having a console (i did not afford one until the WII U...) my girlfriend have a couple... but the feel of a console is the essence, being together playing a game, using the controllers (i still love the wired ones with gamecube, snes etc), playing together and that you feel that it is power inside the box (the wii u is not big).
it is okay with handheld stuff... but for me it is just like using a phone... then quit the lame handhelds and make better phones...
the end of consoles is not something that i think about... it is a special feeling.. just like playing CS on PC... you cant do the same on console.. but hey.. thats just me
In Denmark there are not a lot of people knowing that there is a new WII... there are no ads whatsoever... you can get it but it is not often on display, people dont know what it is capable of (they think it is like the wii), the wii mini sells pretty good though (which is weird in my ears). some gameshops like gamestop take from 10£ more per game up to double or triple price compared to other places...
so far i have not yet seen one WII U stand where you can play a game and try the WII U... as all have with XBOX and PS3...
if nintendo want people to buy it... then let people know it is there... i have recommended it, but people say... "it has lame graphics, why dont you buy a PS3?"
nintendo has failed a lot with the wii u... but it is not too late.. do an effort..
This is just great... i have ordered my copy as well.. hope the game is good and that it will show all the dev-houses out there that quality software is worth it.. also on the WII U!
i love the wii u.. being the green alternative to an xbox or ps3 (or even the new ones.)
Nintendo has always been creating high quality games, it was my first console with the NES... and i love Nintendo... now that the system has power to play 3D games also just makes me love Nintendo even more...
Nintendo is high quality gaming with the green attitude... and they should also sell the wii u on that... that it is a gaming console with the environment in mind.
i actually like the gamepad.,.. the extra features of the screen is great and the ability to play if the tv is occupied... when games will be developed with the pad in mind.. then we will see even more awesome features
from my point of view... i have bought games for around 10£-20£ for the wii u... if they want to boost sales and such they have to keep the games cheap... most games for ps3 and xbox... is veery cheap compared to wii u.. i have just been lucky to get them on a discount.
i sure hope things will change... and the devs will show all wrong.. that the wii u is actually a good console... for me it is green and giving performance.. i like the graphics and the way it is controlled and the opportunities that the wii u gamepad gives..
they stated that most people have an external hdd.. and that people would prefer using that i have too many .. so for me that is good enough... i am more a disc-man than a hdd-man
@orravan85
yeah... but it is probably not for the worst... the customers will benefit from it in the end... i am glad i bought mine... the limited zombie u edition.. but i was too expensive... today it is about 160£ under the price i paid.! but i am a fan boy.. and support nintendo.. have had a nes, and i still have a boxed snes and such... the mario franchise outpowers the power of PS4 and xbox...
EA seem to hate Nintendo. it is quite a shame though..... i would like to have an okay racing game... but i will wait and see if there will be some in the future... as far as i see it... the wii u is getting ditched by so many... and how the.... are they going to sell wii u consoles without any awesome games..
in Denmark there is nearly none whatsoever of ads or focus about the WII U... even the shops still only "mostly" make ads for ps3 and xbox... people here dont even seem to know it is a new machine and that it is actually with good graphics..
Well... i have not bought the game yet.. but i was considering it... now i just dont want to... I think Nintendo Wii U has a lot of potential...i was actually surprised when it came out... being a fan of Mario... and when more games will come, more will buy the U!

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

Re: Poll: Would You Buy Grand Theft Auto V On Wii U?
i would buy it... i like GTA 1-2 and vice city... and san andreas
my guess is that if it came to the wii u, more wii u consoles would be sold.
we need the games... no matter if it is for the die hard nintendo fans or casual gamers or fanboygames... we need them all..
