#216088 Your favorite song from Sonic the hedgehog?

Green hill, 1st level on sonic 1

That music is the iconic song that made Sonic for me.

XboxVCR can get stuffed, mandatory Kinect is what ticks me off. Also 24hr check up?

I'm going with Sony and Nintendo this year.



#180079 Worry about the Wii U? Read this

Posted by xBASSxMONSTAx on 06 March 2013 - 08:49 PM in Wii U Hardware

Nice Article. I personally think all next gen consoles are in trouble tbh. Technology's now moving at a rapid pace. Consoles just feel old now.

 

There's so much threat now than their was 7 years ago like the surge in the mobile gaming industry, steam ect. Also the Economy is pretty bad both in USA and Europe so not many have the money to splash out on $500 game systems + $60 for each game.

 

All in all, I reckon Nintendo's done pretty well in these hard times. I suspect MS and Sony will struggle just like Nintendo have over the  next year.

Excellent scores. Defo worth a purchase on launch. Hopefully now the Wii-U will start to pick up sales leading to Christmas. We still have Wonderfull 101, Bayonetta, Donkey Kong and Mario 3D world to come this year. I'm glad I own a Wii-U.

#177020 Wii U sales fall below PS Vita's for the first time

Posted by xBASSxMONSTAx on 27 February 2013 - 07:18 AM in Wii U Hardware

Wii U sold 9633 units in Japan last week, according to number-cruncher Media Create (via NeoGAF). Vita sold 11,456 units - the handheld's highest weekly tally for some time. The bump is probably due to some stores acting early on the recently announced Japanese price drop.

That discount isn't supposed to go into effect until tomorrow, so expect Vita numbers to be higher again next week.

By comparison, PlayStation 3 sold nearly double - 18,529 - what Wii U managed. And as in other weeks, 3DS was miles ahead of everything with 74,729 sales.

Oh god. We know we are in trouble when the PS Vita starts outselling Wii-U. :(



#202354 Wii U or iPhone 5?

Posted by xBASSxMONSTAx on 01 May 2013 - 04:30 AM in Wii U Hardware

iPhone 5. The Wii-U is rubbish..... Oops, sorry. Been on other gaming websites and I've caught the hate Nintendo virus.

I would get an iPhone 5 for now, later on in the year I would get the Wii-U.

#237013 Wii U May Be in Trouble due to Closure of Vital Semiconductor Factory

Posted by xBASSxMONSTAx on 04 August 2013 - 09:24 AM in Wii U Hardware

There may be more trouble on the horizon for the already slow-selling Wii U. On Friday the prominent semiconductor manufacturer Renesas Electronics posted its quarterly financial report, together with notice of extraordinary loss and a press release about an impending restructuring of the company.
 
As part of that restructuring Renesas, that merged with NEC Electronics in 2012, announced that it decided to close four semiconductor plants in Japan within 2-3 years, including the state-of-the-art factory based in Tsuruoka, Yamagata Prefecture (as reported by the Wall Street Journal), and this may spell trouble for Nintendo and the Wii U.
 
The reason is quite simple. The closing factory was responsible for manufacturing the console’s Embedded DRAM, that is quite properly defined the “life stone” of the console.
 
The production of the 1 cm-wide semiconductor for Nintendo was responsible for more than half of the load of the factory at peak times, but the slow sales of the console determined a reduction in demand and a gap in the usage of the machinery and personnel, forcing the plant to run at a loss.
Nintendo told the Japanese Magazine Weekly Diamond that “the closure of the plant won’t have immediate effects on the production of the Wii U”, but the outlook of things isn’t too positive for the future.
 
Nintendo could try to contract another company to produce the component, but there are circumstances that make it difficult. According to a Renesas executive the production of that semiconductor was the result of the “secret sauce” and state-of-the-art know-how part of the NEC heritage of the Tsuruoka plant, making production elsewhere difficult. In order to restart mass production in a different factory redesigning the component may be necessary.
 
In light of the situation an increase in the production costs of the console seems very likely on the medium and long term due to the shift of production to a different location and to the possibility of a redesign of the hardware. One thing is for sure: the Wii U really can’t can’t get a break as of late…
 

 

 

 
Nintendo have no luck as of late. :(

Posted by xBASSxMONSTAx on 29 May 2013 - 07:38 AM in Wii U Hardware

#188718 Wii U CAN get Unreal Engine 4.

Posted by xBASSxMONSTAx on 31 March 2013 - 06:26 PM in Wii U Hardware

Mark Rein apologizes for his Wii U comment

 

Apologizing doesn't change his position. It's PR spin.




#163286 wii tv ?

Posted by xBASSxMONSTAx on 26 January 2013 - 07:16 AM in Wii U Games and Software

Again Nintendo cannot provide what they promised from day 1. They have failed to deliver a lot of there promises recently. Disappointed to be honest.



#203267 Why should I buy a Wii U?

Posted by xBASSxMONSTAx on 03 May 2013 - 02:17 AM in Wii U Hardware
