Zelda 25th Anniversary To Go Without A Collection

looks like the article i read about nintendo killing off the Wii U already was right

And how exactly is that?

First was the announcement that WiiU currently only supports one controller. That’s it, one controller. There will be no offline two player games, party games, or anything of that nature. One console, one player, one controller. Which seems odd considering some of Nintendo’s best titles are party games such as Mario Party and Super Smash Bros.

Well that’s not too bad. Give me good games and I still will hold an interest in the product, right? Nah, Nintendo decided to strip even more features out of the device. This time stating that Blu-ray and DVD movie playback will not be included in WiiU. They noted that the cost to put the technology into the system was too high due to patent rights. No Blu-ray, fine that is understandable. You don’t want to pay Sony and allow them to get rich off your console too. It isn’t entirely needed. However no DVD playback? Rather or not Instant streaming from services like Netflix will be available to fill in the gap have yet to be announced.

213EDD, you are wrong, Nintendo said they're not plannig to release Wii U's controllers multiplayer experiences, but [b]obviosly[/b] the other players will be able to play with a wiimote and a nunchuck if you like.

The system doesnt need a DVD player. Any respectful home with children is already going to have multiple DVD players in the home anyway. Nintendo's logic on this area of functionality is spot on. Now if they decided that the WiiU didnt play Wii games i could see not backing the product as we all saw how pissy people would get when they found out their very expensive PS3 (( unless you were lucky and purchased the model that would before they took it off the market )) didnt play PS2 games anylonger...and at that a select library of PS1 games. (( i myself held onto my PS1 and 2 before PS3 came out for that very reason. ))

Nintendo hasn't made any good choices since n64....

You mean the SNES, the N64 controller was the shittiest piece of **** ever.

They didnt have much of a choice with the Cartridge idea. The plans to Meld with Sony on their first high graphic (( at the time )) system fell through when sony pulled away and began production on the 1st Playstation. Nintendo had plans for a CD drive gaming system but went with Carts because it was quicker to produce for them to compete (( not very well though )) with Sony.

No other controller had a Jet Fighter game where you could use a cheat and fly as the actual controller. Yes it required 3 hands to use on some games but the controller stuck out visually apart from everything else out on the market. Thats what made the system so unique.

You take that back, Ranim! The N64 controller is and always will be the best controller ever made.

You are forgetting the Atari Jaguar's controller, the N64s controller was interesting to get used to but with the games that were on that system, it was the best decision.

I miss the SNES games! Thats what I grew up with and I also miss the awesome music that the SNES games had. From Mega Man X to Battletoads. Either way....I just hope Nintendo gets some decent games to back up the Wii U since right now it only has a handful!

of course they would shoot it down, how are they supposed to milk there fans buy releasing them each on there own for more than there worth i9f they put out a nice collection?
