No changes are needed.

The old consoles had some of the coolest games ever come out for the holidays. It was a tough time to launch a new system.

But it's selling well enough.

The only change needed is that idiots like the ubi CEO don't back out on their commitments.
He worries that the wii u install base isn't big enough yet.

What he fails to see is that the game will SELL CONSOLES.

The majority of wii u owners would buy the game.

Now, it will be irrelevant after e3.

Ubi doesn't boss Nintendo.

They shouldn't expect any other treatment than they get from ms or Sony.

And Nintendo has treated them VERY well.

No ones going to want Raman after the new Mario.

They killed the game.

And a demo isn't anything at all.

i did read the article otherwise i wouldntv commentented. like i said earlier "the article ddnt specify whethr nintendo was the one making changes or that ubi wanted nintendo to make those changes." all it said was "nintendo will make changes to that machine".

I very much doubt you read the article as you assumed that Ubisoft demanded Nintendo make changes when the article said nothing of the sort. You obviously jumped to conclusions before reading the article.

The changes I predict are a lighter version of the OS. 256 or 512mb for it.. and 1.5-1.78 for the games. Some trophies system maybe... thats it.

I don't know because I haven't played any Ubi games on the Wii U yet, but I have downloaded the uplay app. Does uplay integrate with the games the same way it does on PC? Maybe the change ubi wants is more uplay integration for their games?

i said "well if its ubi demanding changes then they should f**k off. pretty high and mighty for just a game developer. even tho we need third parties like ubi to come to the system, but demanding that nintendo make changes to their "machine" if out of line."

" i said "well if its ubi demanding changes then..."

"if its ubi..."


"if"


i never once stated that they did.

To be fair, very few changes need to be made to the U itself. The problems lie with the release timetable. In the US, you have more games than we currently have in the UK. In the UK, with the delay of Scribblenauts and Rayman, we are not seeing any solid game being released since the end of January to the end of March - a 2 month period in which no "big" games launch. That is a huge problem for the UK market. I'm not saying this is all Nintendo's fault, but something needs to be done - especially if the PS4 is going to be announced in 5 days. Nintendo need to build U hype (they aren't pushing it at all in the UK - no adverts, no nothing!).

The only news relating to Nintendo that has been published for the last 2 months is "BAD SALES". Nintendo *NEED* to fix that...

We aren't getting any adverts here either, at least in my market. I believe San Diego is still a top 10 population city.

No adverts here in Spain too, more like a box with Wii U in stores which looks like a wii spinoff

[Plutonas]

No adverts in my country also... Only via internet. And stores dont bring it, if you dont ask it, because of its price and a huge risk to stay in the store and get dust.

Nintendo seriously needs to wake up and make these "Necessary Changes" it's too late to scrap the Wii U like they did the Virtual Boy.
