The 3DS outsells the Vita. Your argument is invalid.

I said it once, twice, thrice, etc and I'll say it again: Nintendo needs to focus on the lowest price they can pull off without compromising the experience. Games like Windwaker, Splatoon, etc prove that the Wii U as-is can push out really awesome graphics; and the older Wii proves that Nintendo can dominate by acting as a "secondary" console that people purchase alongside their Xbox or Playstation, or even as a entry console to the current generation.

I'm not sure if there is a solution. But you can always PM me an image and I can manually change it.

It should be fine, seems that uploading to tinypic then giving thewiiu the url uploads the image to this site. A little more complicated, but it works.

No voice chat and it still wins!

 

Question is, dd it win DESPITE of no voice chat or BECAUSE of no voice chat?

I can't seem to change my avatar by uploding from my desktop. I put it on tinypic and imported it that way, but I don't know if it still loads from tinypic and will break when they purge my image.

A game with both of them would be interesting but seems like a considerably more difficult concept to pull off so I'm not so sure they'd go that route.

...How? Literally nothing changes. All Nintendo has to do is allow you to pick your gender when you pick your name. Sure they could have a proper character customization thing, but having any changes to the story would be completely optional depending on how it is written (for example: in Twilight princess Telma's flirting will work though a little scandalous, but the scene where Link and Mayor Bo share knowing glances while Ilia yells at them would work better if the mayor and Ilia's genders were reversed). But literally 95% of all Zelda games' stories work just as well as is if you pretend Link was female.

Maybe you can have a story where Link and Linkle are fraternal twins and the one you choose becomes the hero while the other takes on NPC roles throughout the story. (Imagine a conversation between Link and Linkle)

Paper Jam, Zelda U, more Wii VC releases. I've had to resort to running the impossible to find games off a SD card.

Yeah I know, I keep on making these. But I keep on coming up with different ideas for it (and can't find the old threads).

I am convinced that Nintendo needs to focus on a lower-cost console that's more approachable to most people, kind of how many people bout a Wii alongside the PS3 or Xbox 360, making the Wii the most popular console. While having the most powerful console will always be demanded, I don't think that's an arms race that Nintendo is willing or able to compete in.

To me it seems that Nintendo wants to focus on making scaleable games, where you can pop the cartridge into the NX console and play it at full quality, or pop the game into a handheld and still get a decent experience. Developers would need to make sure their games work with this, so using x86 and catering to port developers would simply not work. The Cafe system is still a pretty efficient system, that we'll have to see how much it can flex.

I don't think the NX console will be more than 3x powerful then the Wii U, as Nintendo will mostly focus on improving anything that developers find limiting at that budget level. I'm guessing a price point of $250 or less, with the only controller being a Pro Controller (or an updated version). That would allow it to play the entire virtual console library (except DS) and can even play Gamecube games if analog (or trackwheel) triggers are used. Many Wii U games support off-screen mode, and so should be patchable to remove gamepad requirement. You can still buy a Gamepad or Wii remotes to play the rest of the games though, but they are not included - or at least not included in the base model.

There should be little to no similarity to the Wii an Wii U, either in style or branding. It caused too much confusion for the Wii U. The sole exception would be if the flexible NX architecture allows the Wii U to be upgraded to support NX games. But that's a level of complexity that I don't have enough information on.

After that, support for an HDD should be built in (either as an internal drive bay or an external attachment like the Xbox 360.

Change the title, it's real. And the hate is STRONG.

Title changed. And what Hate? TP was awesome, and will be even more so in HD.

NA Windwaker HD, obviously.

But honestly we really need a proper Zelda and Mario 3D game, and probably a Splatoon sequel. At launch. Not having a decent lineup at the launch of the Wii U had a pretty bad impact on it. It would also be great if Nintendo could work with some of the more famous indys to port their games over, like Undertale.

And Metroid.

Do what I did last year and build a pc. You don't pay to play online, can choose the hardware/game settings YOU want, access to steam which means huge savings on games, mods/user generated content, AND you get a very nice desktop.

PC + Wii U = I never need to buy a PS4 or Xbox One.

That's what I was going to suggest... Until I saw he wanted to play Arkham Knight, with that and Battlefront being the only two games he's interested in.

Scroll down to the reviews.

I keep on getting unread notifications on this thread but it's the same post every time.

Cloud game saves and automatic downloading purchases made from a computer will be awesome.

root it.

Only if you know what you're doing and are confident you can avoid malware that exploit rooted phones.

what is ncc

wait...I'm dumb, for some reason I thought it was something other than nintendo chit chat

That was my thought too. I'm surprised though.

I had just gotten an email that someone from there asked me if I got a couple games yet, and if it wasn't for the fact that he said my title specifically I would never have known if he was talking to me, a group broadcast, or posted a new thread. Looking closer it seems that he tried to send me a direct message but accidentally posted it to his profile page.

I actually kind of hate the design of that website, and have deleted my account. I'll probably migrate to the 3DS forum, there at least I know which end is up.

So I've been sitting on this for a few months now...but is it safe to assume that this site is basically dead? almost no one posts, new threads aren't really made its just a ghost town here after...not really sure what happened but everyone left. So is it safe to just abandon ship at this point and find a new forum? I know one of the mods made a new site but its layout is just...not really sure how to put it but I just find it cumbersome to navigate. Or do you think there is still some glimmer of hope for this site to come back alive? I guess ti doesn't help the wii u failed in the consumer's eye.

Yeah I don't really know how to describe the other site too. It's pretty, but half the time I don't understand what I'm looking at. And apparently you have to be invited to each specific subforum before you can post in them.

I'm guessing part of it is that it's crunch time for many people, with school or college starting to get more intense.

That would be a large up-front investment but for people who care about mobile gaming it wouldn't be any more expensive than buying a console and handheld separately. If you consider a console launch price of around $400 and a handheld launch price of around $200, you're actually saving $100. Then there's the fact that you wouldn't need to be different sets of games, thus saving a huge amount on games. 

...except that it seems that most Nintendo gamers are just buying handhelds.

I don't really know how well the antivirus software works. That again should be asked at the Android forums.

I want a Cucco gun in Zelda.

But in all seriousness:

1. Try to ensure the long-term access to the chip architecture. We don't want to lose decades of games because a licensing issue forces Nintendo to drop their backwards compatibility and start from scratch.

2. Improve network services. Maybe have multiple tiers where a free one gives us what we have now (including multiplayer) and have one (or two) advanced tires that give use features like cloud game save syncing and voice chat (no matter what you think, I believe this would at least be considered to keep Nintendo's family friendly status.

3. Add games to the Virtual Console faster. It is currently possible to run most Gamecube and n64 games as-is on the Wii U (and some hackers have figured out how to put standard n64 roms inside the emulator package downloaded from the eShop). I'd start a beta program where users can play beta games and report any and all bugs found.

4. Either make Gamecube ports a standard feature or launch a new bluetooth Wavebird that is 100% identical and is supported indefinitely. Maybe give it a USB connection so the extreme gamers are happy

5. I'd like to launch a Nintendo Dynasty game collection. The general idea is that all games in the series are modular, where characters from one game can be played in another while using a map from a third game. You would buy individual games (such as Mario Bros, Kirby, Yoshi, etc) and each new game can be added to the mix and mashed up. Like if you bought a bunch of different lego packs and mixed them together.

Find a forum specific to your tablet's manufacturer if possible, or a good generic forum (androidcentral is decent). They will be able to help with any oddballs that get thrown your way.

You see, a console handheld hybrid would make complete sense for Nintendo.

 

...And because it would make sense we can confirm its not true.  I'll believe it when I see it.

Why would it be untrue just because it makes sense? Nintendo's actions make sense all the time, just you cannot look at industry statistics and expect them to apply.
