#317919 Wii U Production Ending? Rumor

Posted by Raiden on 22 March 2016 - 01:01 PM in Wii U News

I find it quite hard to believe because:
1 - It is coming from the same company who said the NX was going to use Android, only to get corrected with a huge No by Nintendo a few days later.
2- It is coming from the same company who said the Wii U launch price would be $250 instead of $300.
3 - It goes completely against Kimishima's words of supporting the Wii U with more sellers like Splatoon and Mario Maker.
4 - It makes no sense. People expect a new console in December? Lol.

 

 

This paper is more wrong than they are right. Wii U makes them money.

Nintendo would not spend the time and money on localization of something like Tokyo Mirage Sessions if this was true. There would be no point otherwise. That in itself is a new project.

They announced a new Paper Mario which is likely a fall or holiday release. You don't do that if you are not producing systems. Maybe next year Nintendo does pull the plug but not this year.

#317928 Wii U NOT ceasing production says Nintendo

Posted by Raiden on 23 March 2016 - 11:29 AM in Wii U News

The report came from Nikkei, which is reputable in Japan for pretty much always hitting the mark. They aren't some source that can be counted out for small reasons, as they only post about business when they are 100% sure.

 

They previously reported about the 3DS XL before the 3DS XL was even a thing. But more importantly, this is Nintendo. As much as I like them their damage control is amazing. Things like not having a 3DS XL, or the not N3DS being sent out west, both which were busts and probably were well on the plans before reports arrived.

 

The original piece stated that some parts have ceased production. That wouldn't be something that could be easily popped out. All Nikkei would have to do is get someone in to double check, as I'm sure that production amounts are part of their analysis pieces.

 

I don't expect the Wii U to cease as early as they state though. Ultimately, there is still something to be made. NX doesn't fund itself.

No they reported and a successor to 3DS. XL was just a revision . They also said Wii U would be 250 bucks and said NX will use Android. Both turned out false. They throw so much trash at the wall some of it's bound to stick and that is when people freak out and GO SEE THEY WERE RIGHT. They were not right and still wrong and report BS

#317371 Wii U best selling Black Friday item at Target

Posted by Raiden on 29 November 2015 - 08:11 PM in Wii U Games and Software

http://mynintendonew..._medium=twitter

It looks like more and more people are interested in picking up a Wii U for the holidays, and it could have something to due with Nintendo offering some pretty sweet deals on new bundles. The console was even the top-selling item on Target’s website on Black Friday. The retailer is also saying that gaming consoles in general were popular among consumers in both stores and online.

#317638 Wii U 11 million units sold

Posted by Raiden on 14 January 2016 - 11:41 PM in Wii U News

That's not a whole lot is it?

Not for a console released 4 years ago.  Wii was at 50 million or something at that point.

#315789 Who's enjoying Splatfest?

Posted by Raiden on 04 July 2015 - 11:31 AM in General Gaming

Why do I keep getting teamed up with single digit levels and face all Level 20 teams!? I am Level 13. This is annoying. Plus so many lag outs I quit the damn thing.

#314796 Who would buy a Wii U now?

Posted by Raiden on 17 June 2015 - 08:07 AM in Wii U Hardware

Yes. A lot of great backlog games a bunch more coming and half the reason I bought a Wii U is still not out. Xenoblade Chronicles X.

MS showed nothing to buy that system.

Get your own ideas.

#312867 What's in store for the 3DS?

Posted by Raiden on 11 May 2015 - 02:18 PM in General Gaming

This happens when you regularly drink a gallon of salt and haterade with every meal.

 

I don't have to take that kind of disrespect from you MOD. It's what happens when Nintendo is backwards. NDS was so great for being region free and had twice the amount of games. Excuse me for not being some blind fanboy wanting every Mario and Zelda. Some people play other things.




#313076 What's in store for the 3DS?

Posted by Raiden on 17 May 2015 - 09:21 AM in General Gaming

Right, but there's a difference between supporting the same (or a similar) graphics library and having the same graphical power. The Wii U could have the identical architecture and hardware functions as the PS4 but if the game's being written mainly for the PS4, the Wii U wouldn't be able to handle it in terms of the CPU and GPU power. Which means they'd need to do the whole graphical downgrade thing to get it working on the Wii U. Which I'm guessing puts them off!

Nah Wii U can likely do KHIII with optimization,something absent this gen with 40GB installs. It's like comparing a SEGA Genesis to SNES. Not the raw power but it's good enough where the difference isn't as big as people make it out to be despite only 512 colors vs SNES 32,000 because games like Sparkster or Earthworm Jim. FFXV maybe could at 720P at 30. XCX and Zelda are running on it.

Also keep this in mind. XBOX is selling as well in Japan as Air Conditioners to an Eskimo. Wii U does fairly ok there and outsold PS4 a couple weeks ago. It has Monster Hunter,XCX DQX and Fatal Frame so Wii U has appeal in Japan.  KHIII makes little sense esp when it's mainly a Sony franchise and second a Nintendo one but NONE a MS one. Xbox crowd is not the one to buy JRPGs either in the US in general. Nomura is often a talking head for higher ups and is fed PR lines like the DX one. He's good at a lot of things and terrible at some others like Zippers and belts but Square is poorly uitizing him and guys like Ito plus the interal power struggle Square is having as a company. FF13-2 sold far less than Tomb Raider and they were happy with that but mad about 4 million TR selling not being enough.why would a total flop like 13-2 and LR be talked about in a good light? Why would a flop like X-2 be a big talking point for the remasters? Because they were made by Kitase and Toriyama goes back to their internal bullcrap.

They as a company are REALLY run poorly.

 

So again Square is dumb.




#313069 What's in store for the 3DS?

Posted by Raiden on 17 May 2015 - 07:02 AM in General Gaming

Where is the english translation for DQ7?

 

I wasn't just basing that on speculation, they did admit that was the reason: http://www.siliconer...rect=no&oswrr=1

Square also said it would take 40 years to remake FF7 for PS3. http://kotaku.com/55...vii-remake-take

 

That is the link I was refering to as to why they are stupid that you posted. Time and time again the stuff sells on DS/3DS from DQ to Brave to Fire Emblem to SMT. They sell well in the west. ALso the same company who thought All the bravest was a good idea.

 

  Square says a lot of dumb things that are BS. Also it would take a few months at best to translate. Since I know DQ games they are not the most text heavy games. Brave has 10x the text any DQ game has. Hell Xseed is 20 people and the one game they are translating it Trails in the Sky 2 and been doing it since 2011! There is so much text in TITS2 the text alone would fill up more than 2 PSP UMDs!  Xseed can do a game that has THOUSANDS UPON THOUSANDS of lines translated,Square can do it for Brave which has FAR MORE text than a DQ game then they can easily do DQ7 esp when DQ7 is already in english just fix some things. Top it off Xseed is doing several projects at a time. Tho the one downside to fan translations is you sometimes get people who are cray cray lol. The whole Nightwolf thing was hilarious.

 

Squaresoft are run by idiots the same idiots who said Kingdom Hearts and FFXV will run and released on anything that can Do DX11..So where is the Wii U versions? Wii U can do DX11 Equivelent with GX2. Square the same ones who said Tomb Raider didn't sell well enough for them..you know all 4 million copies before the remaster.  Dragon Quest in general is like Zelda they are not setting the world on fire with a text heavy story. DQ games are pretty much the same now as they were on NES. Part of the appeal is they stay the same for the most part. (DQIX changed it up)

 

In short Square,Konami,Capcom are in the same bag being poorly run full of idiots who don't know thier head from the sand. Take whatever they say with a grain of salt. I don't go looking for fan translations just know always people making them and a select few making a decent sum on doing it. Ys games all got that way for the PSP/Vita releases. They have 20X the text DQ has.




#313073 What's in store for the 3DS?

Posted by Raiden on 17 May 2015 - 08:39 AM in General Gaming

I think they were saying that the full world of FF7, if remade with the detail of FF13 would take ten times as long (which I suspect was hyperbolic). That's not necessarily the same as saying the version they would remake would take that long. If they ever did remake it, chances are the world wouldn't have that same amount of detail. Almost no "open world" games do.

 

And where exactly did they say that Kingdom Hearts and FF15 will run on anything with DX11. That would be an insane thing to claim.

Nomura isn't the the smartest man. I can't find the eaxt link from 2 years ago so this article is paraphrasing but he basicaly said in the old article release the games on anything that can run DX11. http://playeressence...ances-are-slim/

 

Funny how DX is a MS thing Sony uses Open GL but can do the same things pretty much and so can GX2

3DS has almost nothing for me so far. I can't stand 3DS as it is. Thanks to region locking.
