#270060 2004-Nintendo's Future is bleak. Doomed

Posted by nbond3040 on 02 February 2014 - 11:24 AM

It's funny how when sony announced the Vita everyone said the same exact thing and look at where we are now pretty much the same results Nintendo crushing all opposition when it comes to the handheld market. Also, I don't understand why people always be hatin' on the gamecube like it was a failure it had great games, and it made a profit also it had a pretty high attach rate of like 9 games I think.

the giants like EA and Activision i know will be around, i just feel personally that they dont dish out enough AAA games aside from their bread and butter, being the giants that they are. Ubisoft has stepped up above and beyond to me, I'm just concerned for this next Gen. 

I agree that Ubisoft seems to be the only AAA publisher that seems to know what it means to go next gen. Activision and EA are both pretty much crap. EA has a few interesting things with Plants vs. Zombies garden warfare, Titanfall, and Battlefront but that's about it from them.

 

Nintendo really does need to court the indie devs and the more independent studios like the people working on No Man's Sky and some of the neat projects showing up on Kickstarter. I would really like to see continued support from Ubisoft after watch dogs with the Crew and possibly even the division. I doubt it will happen, but that would be all the big third party support you would need along with the indie and kickstarter stuff to really have a powerful library!!

 

The only other games the Wii U really needs from third party would be Batman, Battlefront, and possibly an exclulsive FPS? Idk, but they really do need minimal third party support for a lot of the big blockbuster Microtransaction games. They do need the publicity for what it is they are doing though. The AAA scene is slowly fizzling out and I think Nintendo could play their cards right to get a lot of sales and great games during the second half of the life cycle if indies keep supporting it.

 

Kickstarter and Indies are becoming more ambitious as the competition between them is heating up. The Mighty No. 9, Space Pioneer, No Man's Sky, Armillo and many others are starting to look really good. I'd really like Unsung Story to come to Wii U also (Kickstarter). There are tons of fresh innovative ideas out there that will drive the innovation forward. If most of them can make their way on to the Wii U and they can be marketed correctly, then Wii U could become really competitive. especially if they added a few more features like voice chat to make the multiplayer experience more usable for co-op and competitive games.

 

It would be awesome if Nintendo found some way to get a multiplayer fps like Titanfall that they could get exclusively from a third party developer though. It's the one exclusive they don't really have. I'd be ok with a spin off Metroid series. Like Mario and Mariokart, have the first person adventure game Metroids and a competitive multiplayer Metroid game.

 

There's just so mmany good games coming to Wii U and it's a shame that many people won't ever know because they aren't being marketed correctly, though on that note I did see a Bravely Default commercial during the later hours Adult Swim on was it Cartoon Network? It was a cable channel in passing...




#263493 My Sonic: Lost World Wii U summary

What are you talking about?  The controls are very very tight.  You stop on a dime, you move exactly where you want to go.  The controls are the best in comparison with all other sonic games.  The only iffy controls are the wisp controls.

 

Mario games never had bosses or characters with substance, so what's your point with that?  All the characters have more of a character than the mario characters.  The writing and jokes are also entertaining and funny.

I played about 30 mins with mates and they like rather play mario kart


Well I think that sums up why your friends can't compete in higher difficulties and everything else we've discussed surrounding your friends in the game.

but i just feel the drifting in mk64 better and overall handling of a vechile that bit better.


I hope you realize the amount of combinations there are to modify pretty much everything about your vehicle in Sonic Transformed. And then there's the fact that any type of controls will become default after a while.

The planes and boats aswell, they deliberately made the controls for boats and planes very different. But they're both manageable, that's where you see who is willing to get better at a game and who just wants everything to be easy from the get-go.
