[QUOTE="locopatho"][QUOTE="nintendoboy16"][QUOTE="locopatho"] Lol EA make the best sports games, some of the best racers (Need For Speed, Burnout), one of the best music games (Rockband), one of the best FPSs (Battlefield), some of the best RPGs (Bioware) and you gonna tell me their support doesn't matter? Yeah think only the Nintendo fanboys are gonna say this doesn't matter.

It actually doesn't when even EA couldn't sell a Nintendo console version of their multiplat, using a similar strategy that only worked with Namco during that same gen.

Guess no 3rd party matters so. Back to N64 days?

For how long have you been complaining?

That would actually be amazing considering the fact that the "hardcores" took what they could get out of the N64. Less controversies over certain games for certain. No one cared when Turok and Star Wars games were on N64 (and for GameCube's sake, no one cared when Rogue Squadron stayed GameCube exclusive), unlike what happened with RE4, TvsC, Goldeneye 2010, No More Heroes, and Bayonetta 2.

No, it wouldn't, N64 days were sh!tty. I wanted Final Fantasy and Metal Gear and Tekken and the 8 bazillion PS games :(

I liked the N64 more than the Playstation. Mario 64, Ocarina of Time, Majora's Mask, Perfect Dark, Goldeneye, Donkey Kong 64, Star Fox 64, Paper Mario, Mario Kart 64, Super Smash Bros, Blast Corps, and Conker's Bad Fur Day ftw.

Sure the library lacked, but the attitude towards them was perhaps much better then than it was now (though that may not be saying much as that started Nintendo's controversial reception).

Besides, I don't think most people actually like it when Nintendo gets third party support these days (again referring to the Bayonetta 2 and RE4 controversies)

One can only imagine the situation that would occur if Rockstar announces that Grand Theft Auto 5 will have PS4 and 720 versions in support of their launch, but NO Wii U version.   

Goodnight sweet Nintendo.  :|

Yeah sorry I can't be dealing with your therioes. I think you just got way too into the SW mindset. People don't despise Nintendo no matter what, they're just sick of their crap. If WiiU turns into the SNES/DS of next gen, people will love it.

All of your posts are about poor Nintendo and how everyone hates on them for everything, no matter what they do.

Get a grip on reality, dude.

The N64 would have dominated the Playstation if Nintendo hadn't screwed up their deal with Philips over the CD drive, and if they had included 8MB of ram out of the box instead of gimping it and selling the expansion pack years later. The N64 would have been able to smoke the PS1 in pretty much every category, including 2D games because the PS1 didn't have as much RAM (N64 had 4MB out of the box, 8MB with expansion pack; PS1 had 2MB, which was less than even the Sega Saturn's 4MB). The PS1 would have still been easier to develop for, but the N64 would have had both the advantage of CDs and the raw power to make games that were far better than the competition's to the point where it would have been almost a generation ahead.

I still mark the N64's lack of an integrated CD drive as the moment when Nintendo started going downhill. If Nintendo hadn't screwed up their deal with Phillips and were able to get them to manufacture the system's CD drive, the system wars today would be a very different landscape.

It was definitely the weakest console, in terms of both games and hardware. Not useless by any means, but it deserved to get knocked around for what it did wrong.

No actually, It would have helped, but Phillips CD technology was pretty gimped and would have cause possibly longer slowdown than the Playstation.

It's the same for WiiU: if it's the worst, it'll get savaged like the Wii. If it's the best, it'll get godly praise like the DS. No conspiracies here mister! :P

That's not good. Although, I doubt that many people bought a Wii U for Madden, 2K, Fifa, when it's a already on other systems.

Nintendo didn't want loading times with their games, regardless of the third party support the N64 still had some of the greatest games and Nintendo made a decent profit as well

Even the GC got EA sports games. This is starting to look like Dreamcast, yet worse.fernandmondego_
. I predict the Wii U lifespan will be a very short one, with Nintendo, perhaps exiting the console market and sticking to handhelds.

If Nintendo wasn't interested then they might as well not make the console to begin with.:P

Not dire stuff like Wii Music, no. But half arsed sh!t gets defended. Wii online was defended. Crappy ports were defended (the controls makes up for it!). Tiny storage is defended (lol just buy a harddrive). Lack of media features gets defended. (lol everyones moved to Netflix, no one needs dvd/blu ray playback). And so on. If Nintendo fans were more demanding, Ninty wouldn't get away with this crap. That's what annoys me. Young me playing SNES expected Nintendo to always be the kings, and they still could be! If they only copped the hell on.

[QUOTE="locopatho"][QUOTE="nintendoboy16"][QUOTE="locopatho"] Right? I think the Wii's (well deserved) savaging by gamers all gen long has broken his mind.

I don't mind the Wii's criticisms (hell, it's MY least favorite Nintendo console), but it blows my mind that when Nintendo tried to address something, it backfires, one way or another.

Results are what matter. JUST TRYING ISN'T GOOD ENOUGH! Well it is for the hardcore fans. They were defending Wii's online system :?

Well, based on the friend code thing, I wasn't completely defending it. I found some playable games on there, but I hated the FC's.

[QUOTE="fernandmondego_"]Even the GC got EA sports games. This is starting to look like Dreamcast, yet worse.ChiefFreeman
. I predict the Wii U lifespan will be a very short one, with Nintendo, perhaps exiting the console market and sticking to handhelds.

You realize they wouldn't survive on handhelds alone in this day in age, right?

Because they don't actually address it.StaticOnTV
How about publish a game people actually wanted to play, only to announce it and that same game is now wanted dead?

All of your posts are about poor Nintendo and how everyone hates on them for everything, no matter what they do.

Get a grip on reality, dude.

Link, I don't believe EVERYONE hates Nintendo. I know they have their fans, but with all the "doom and gloom" articles as well as getting into gamer related controversies as much as EA, Activision, and Capcom does, I'm just finding it harder to believe. The severe backdraft (based on what I first witnessed) I saw the GameCube get that gen really makes me iffy (as well as reading a certain website and blogger maybe a bit too much).

Even I don't defend Nintendo on everything. In fact, didn't you criticize me for calling the Pandora's Tower release "too little, too late"? I'm sorry to get on you like this, but...

The doom and gloom articles are based on solid facts and evidence tho. Say that guy losing all his VC games cos the massive update bricked his console. That's not bias or hate, that's reporting the facts of how far behind Nintendo are in those respects. That couldn't and wouldn't happen on a 360 or PS3. It's reality, not conspiracy. If their dam system worked, there'd be no negative article.

I was actually thinking it'd be super fun to play sports games with the Wii U gamepad as some sort of playbook, or something.

Guess I will continue on not playing sports games :P

Yet, are they enough to justify it as "doomed", especially when their damn system has been out for far less than a year? I admit their systems have flaws, but just because an accident happens, doesn't mean Nintendo is doomed. It's blowing things way out of purportion and doing that isn't fair at all.

Nintendo completly ignored third party developers when creating the Wii U.  Factor in that third party titles almost always sell like crap on Nintendo systems, and you have a recipie for disaster.  

This is completely Nintendo's fault.  I hope they suffer for their hubris.  The Nintendo Wii only succeeded because casuals bought it.  They ignored their core and expected the core to walk back with open arms with the Wii U.  Nintendo is dead to me thanks to the Wii.

Tiny storage is defended (lol just buy a harddrive).locopatho
I actually support this, as long as I can use my own 3rd party external hard drive. Why not save money on the console and then just use a dirt cheap hard drive to save downloadable games?

Why shouldn't they have ignored third party developers? Those developers were just going to abandon their platform as soon as the new offerings from Sony and Microsoft dropped anyway, so why not create the system Nintendo's first party developers want?

Cos storage is dirt cheap, and last gen consoles come with hundreds on board. Not to mention WiiU has USB 2.0, which isn't very good for streaming games/data off.
