Third Parties Need To Talk NOW

Why is there still a **** of unannounced third-party Wii U games when the console launches in only a few months. EA hasn't determined if the rest of its upcoming games will come to the Wii U. Ubisoft hasn't determined if the rest of its upcoming games will come to the Wii U. Square Enix hasn't announced anything yet. Bethesda hasn't announced anything yet. Capcom hasn't announced anything yet. Take Two hasn't announced anything yet. Konami hasn't announced anything yet. What the **** is going on? We need answers NOW!

No, they don't need to say anything.

Here's the deal, if the Wii U does well with it's intended demographics (casuals and children) then you'll see other companies make games towards those demographics.

Case in point, Wii Fit is the Wii's biggest game so you see EA Sports Fitness games.

There is no reason for other companies to put their necks out and waste time pushing Nintendo's hardware if they're unable to sell their stuff on it.

Especially games that have things that Nintendo isn't famous for supporting like online abilities. That alone is worth it to stay away right now.

The intended demographic is the hardcore. Don't give me that ****

lol @ 2nd poster the wii u cant sell if there are no games the third party are responsible for their share in the effort to sell their games on nintendos consoles as much as they do the others,

regardless of how well the console sells they wont find out if they dont ever try don't give me they did try , last i checked the only company that was willing and still is willing to try is sega ubisoft and activision , , ea among others have always shunned nintendo products ,

you should go look at nascar , the gc only recieved nascar 2003 and 2005 and dirt to daytona , what happened to 2004 2006 2007 2008 2009?

i can give you more examples if you need ,

but point is

if the third party are not going to put effort into the wii u there is no way im buying their sloppy ports, i buy nintendo consoles to play nintendo made games and if theres a third party effort id buy it but ubisoft sega and activision are the only ones that tried last gen , capcom only did ports , and - rockstar only did a port of bully and table tennis , so --- whats that tell you

I agree. This month would be a good month talk about their stuff.

You're grossly misinformed

Know that "hardcore" you're talking about?

Yeah, they supported the Gamecube and it's woefully awful 22 million consoles

Children and casual?

Well let's just put it this way, Wii Fit is the best selling franchise on the Wii with over 43 million sold

Is Mario Galaxy the best selling Mario title on the Wii? Heck not even Mario Galaxy 1 AND 2 comes close to the 26 million copies of New Super Mario Bros sold and why is that?

New Super Mario Bros is an oldschool game designed for kids who played it in 85 and now are casuals who have kids of their own and want some nostalgia.

Third Parties cant talk until Nintendo tells them to and knowing Nintendo, they will leave it to the very last minute, if that. You will find out all the info on the WiiU when it releases.

I'd like to think its Nintendo who has to make the effort attract 3rd party, ..."not just say hey here's a Wii U"...that's it. Ask for 3rd party devs to make games, hell even pay them. The other 2 competitors do it. :P

Most 3rd party games suck today so... who cares?

Most of the good Ubi games (A. Creed 3, Rayman, Zombie,..) are comming over, as well as some very popular titles like BLOPS 2.

I'm not expecting every single 3rd party to support Wii U, but it clearly will be a big improvement over Wii.

The only 3rd party games that would be a little sad if it missed out on are Rockstar's games like GTA and Max Payne (since they are good).

Oh, and Ubi's Watch Dogs.

I was unaware that you weren't following the Wii U launch software, my apologies.

If you were you'd see that the two main games for the Wii U launch are New Super Mario Bros and Wii Fit.

They're taking the success of the titles on the Wii and making Wii U versions.

Does that help you understand better?

No, they don't need to say anything.

let me ask you this.. what was the most casual system last gen? the ps2 or the gamecube?

what was the most casual system 2 gens ago? the n64 or the ps1?

1 console based on casuals doesn't make them Nintendo's "core audience." We won't know what Nintendo's strategy for the Wii U is until it happens. Right now they seem to be focused on bringing a lot more "hardcore" (hate that term) games to the console.Toxic-Seahorse
