Re: The eBay Scalpers Are At It Already With The Super NES Classic Edition

wizzgamer

Shocking that one person on EBay has 9 of them how the hell did he manage to pre order that many. I'm also not happy with Amazon U.K allowing U.S orders to go through when they state U.K only yet they will cancel them just before launch 🚀. Why not just not let the order go through in the first place so people actually from the U.K can order. America have their own Amazon to order their lovely 😊 purple snes mini from.

Just pre-ordered mine on Games website although I think £79.99 is a little expensive as the Nes mini was only £49.99 yes you get an extra controller but the Nes Mini had 9 more games. I also hope they don't make the same stupidly short controllers again.

Re: Hands On: Putting the Nintendo Switch Hardware Through Its Paces

@ACrate81 more like Atari's Jaguar don't think it will be as good as the Dreamcast unfortunately. It would have been a decent handheld if it wasn't over priced but £279.99 + £59.99 for a game is ridiculous it's certainly not a home console or hybrid as the dock is just there for ease of use for connecting to tv and gaining power to increase cpu/gpu speed which could have been achieved by using a tv cable and ac adapter. Also the 3rd party support is severely lacking I think the only people that will buy this are hardcore Nintendo fans.

Re: Eurogamer Report Suggests Nintendo Switch GPU Runs 60 Percent Slower When Undocked

This is powerful for a handheld especially from Nintendo as I would expect it to be only slightly more powerful than the Vita with it been a Nintendo handheld. But a cause for concern is incredibly poor advertising from Nintendo with them saying it's a hybrid which it is not they have just moved their home console games to this new handheld. Another concern is the price it needs to be low as look what happened with the 3DS when that launched. at a high price.

Re: Rumour: GameCube Virtual Console Coming To Nintendo Switch

wizzgamer

@MarkyVigoroth Gamecube emulation wouldn't have been required to run Gamecube games on Wii U as the Wii U is just a souped up Gamecube same as the Original Wii was hence how it played Gamecube games naitevely. The Wii U also could have played Gamecube discs games in this way but they didn't include memory card or controller ports so didn't enable it in the Wii U's operating system. It was still possible if they had released a add on box with Gamecube controller ports and memory card ports then just added a Wii U update but this didn't happen.

The Wii U was a good console I just kind of wished they had hung on another year to increase the specs to get them closer to PS4 and Xbox One so then all the 3rd party games that the PS4 enjoys could have been ported over then it would have sold really well. The gamepad was a great idea if only their where more 3rd party games as the Wii U had the best first party games by a mile. I just hope Nintendo gets 3rd party developers on board for NX as it will be amazing to have Nintendo and all 3rd party devs on the same platform. Hope Nintendo can turn things around.

Re: Rumour: Detachable NX Controllers Will Offer Wii-Like Motion Control And Advanced Force Feedback

wizzgamer

Just want them to make a proper gaming console the disaster of the Wii and Wii U need pushing under the rug yes the Wii sold incredibly well but it all but killed off any major 3rd party support they had gained back with the gamecube by aiming the console at non gamers. As most gamers played the 360 or PS3 that's why when the few 3rd party developers tried to release games aimed at gamers on the platform they absolutely bombed Madworld a case in point. The original Wi was a huge dust collector for a lot of people especially the few actual gamers that bought one.

Re: Nintendo NX Has A Core Idea Which Doesn't Just "Follow Advancements In Technology", Claims Miyamoto

wizzgamer

This could be an awesome console if it has high specs as having all the great 3rd party games plus Nintendo's fantastic exclusive titles would make it the best console. So probably needs to be at least PS4 specs or above but would still be slightly embarrassing for them if it is a less powerful console than the Xbox one Scorpio as a next gen Console (NX) being less powerful than a last gen console (Xbox One Scorpio) probably won't go down too well with the gaming Community.

Re: Guide: What's New And Different In Fire Emblem Fates?

wizzgamer

Just got my limited edition today a day early and I have to say it's well worth the price of admission the art book is absolutely beautiful plus to have all three games on one 4GB Cart is fantastic. Would go as far to say it's even worth those prices on ebay absolutely stunning.

Re: Site News: Welcome To The Brand New Nintendo Life!

wizzgamer

Used to be a great site this now it's just average thanks to it becoming a disorganised mess most likely due to using the playstation life sites landscape which was a mess and obviously still is why didn't the playstation lifes site just follow this sites design before I got ruined instead of the other way around makes no sense wish someone would buy these out and get it sorted.

Re: Rumour: Sources Go to Battle Again Over Nintendo NX Power

wizzgamer

Sick of seeing Rumours I honestly don't believe it will be as powerful as current gen I think it will be very powerful mind you slightly above Standard PS4 but will still be lagging behing the PS4 Neo which I have finally decided I'm gong for (as I don't have a PS4 yet) instead of the NX as I have lost total confidence with Nintendo after the Wii U. May buy it down the line if it ends up in the bargain bin if it flops or if it gets 3rd party support on board and does well as unless this happens then I think it will sell even less than the Wii U
