Goodbye The Wii U, My Treasured Unloved Friend

Pixelgate writes:

''The Wii U had a pretty rough time. At its lowest moments, people mocked it, laughing at the lack of games and third party support. Even when the system was in a good run of form, people still looked down on it. Like the toaster, from the film The Little Toaster, the Wii U was still appealing. A number of us cheered it on, trying to motivate it. You can do it, we believe in you! ''

Pretty much dead on arrival.

Pancit_Canton2741d ago

I think the same thing will happen with the switch.

Germany72741d ago (Edited 2741d ago )

One of the best games of this generation are Wii U exclusives:

Super Mario 3D World
Bayonetta 2
Mario Kart 8
Super Smash Bros

Vegamyster2741d ago

Tropical Freeze was probably my favorite game off the system, enjoyed it from beginning to end.

MrChow6662741d ago

easy, this generation is crap

Movefasta19932741d ago (Edited 2741d ago )

ill add pikmin 3 to that list, and my personal fav mh3u.

Phil322741d ago

It has some of my favorite games of the generation and some of Nintendo's finest. Here's hoping some of the releases get a second life on the Switch. Though games like Hyrule Warriors, Super Mario Maker, and Yoshi's Woolly World have got or will get a second chance on the Nintendo 3DS!

OldGuyStillGaming2741d ago

I actually love my Wii U and play it more than my X1 and PS4

It has a fantastic library of games

superchiller2741d ago

Good riddance to a gimmicky, underpowered, feature-lacking system. The gamepad gimmick crippled the system from day one, leaving it completely unable to compete with even the PS3 and 360, which came out many years before it.

PixelGateUk2741d ago

*points towards the xbox one being weakened to support kinect*

superchiller2741d ago

Upvoted you because I agree.

Nioh games definitely up there at the top alongside Ninja Gaiden BLK.

LoveSpuds489d ago

There is a decent fan base for the Nioh games, but still think they are criminally overlooked and under appreciated.

I just bought the PS5 collection to replay them again with all their DLC, a sweet collection for my games shelf for sure.

Yea, those gardens haven't been plowed in over 10 years now though. Imagine if they cultivated it, let it grow again.

Starman69489d ago

Amazing what ya can do with a samurai sword lol 🤣

tehpees3489d ago

The honourable mention though.

TheSenorCheese489d ago

originally it wasn't going to be included because of their take on Samus' character. But the gameplay's actually not bad.

Vits488d ago

Honestly, I don't know if we can even blame them for that take. Nintendo's Sakamoto was credited as the writer and from what we learned later with the Retro Studios interviews for the Prime series, Nintendo apparently never saw Samus as this stoic badass that most of the west imagined her as. Going as far as describing her as "motherly".

shinoff2183489d ago

Ninja Gaiden was dope but I don't really care for alot of their games.

Why Bayonetta 3 Is a Step Down From Its Predecessor

Many fans have been expressing their disappointment with Bayonetta 3. Here's why the recently released game is a clear step down from Bayonetta 2.

MadLad525d ago (Edited 525d ago )

Yet the Switch is much more powerful than the Wii U - the platform the second game released on. So you're just being negative to be negative with that comment.

anast525d ago

The voice acting wasn't as good...

jBlakeeper525d ago

Bayonetta herself doesn’t even look as good design wise.

-Foxtrot524d ago

I thought they focused on big kaiju like fights which felt gimmicky and thy brought this new character in to try and get away from the leading star

*Spoilers*

I mean they pretty much killed 3 big characters. They killed Jeanne, Luka and Bayonetta herself and it's not the fact they died it's how they died, we've seen Jeanne and Bayonetta survive countless things yet they go out by the lamest ways possible.
