When you think of Wii, one of the first thoughts that should pop into your head is Nintendo. And when you think of Nintendo? You immediately reflect on the amounts of franchises that the company has brought – Mario, Pokemon, Star Fox, F-Zero, Super Smash Bros., etc. Though the Wii has seen most of these franchises have releases once, or maybe even twice, there is still some potential in what Nintendo could bring to the table. Now of course, these franchises are some that could possibly never grace the Wii in its lifetime, but it’s nice to dream, right?
Game developers have already started to confirm that they will support the Nintendo Switch 2 with their future titles.
Hanzala from eXputer: "As Nintendo takes out 20 years' worth of stuff from Garry's Mod, I watch in shock, thinking why it continues to hurt and discourage its fans."
The irony that some of the most disgusting business practices come from companies like Disney or Nintendo, i can't even begin to understand what terrible damage was Garrys Mod making to Nintendo bottom line, imho they're getting pretty nervous about where they're heading in the future, handhelds are no longer something exclusive to Nintendo, from Steam Deck to many others, now you can play the latest games and pay a fraction of the price on Steam sales, so it's up to their exclusives, which just on their own would make hard to justify purchasing a closed overpriced hardware with outrageous price policies (Super Mario Odyssey is still 60 euro 6 years later!), and as a home console they're always underperforming compared to Sony or Xbox.
i cam guarantee you, that their exclusives alone is what drives switch sales. they sell in the 10s of millions of copies.
nintendo created their franchises to be sort of nostalgia driven, exclusive only on nintendo.
people will always buy the pkmn games as they always bring in new younger fans amd is family friendly
mario kart, the same thing, mario games in general.
zelda games are system sellers. animal crossing for the casual gamers.
nintendo doesnt need third vame devs essentially. they made sure with the switch and the limitations that they looked more to pc ps and xbox.
its sad, but nintendo is more than fine with what they're doing. they positioned themselves to appeal to the more casual gamers.
but to your point, im not sure why they're doing this rly.
Look at how they handled Nintendo games being streamed or uploaded on YouTube in the past. They killed Yuzu and Citra even when they had nothing to do with ToTK being leaked, not to mention it was basically unplayable on emulation the week it was leaked. Smash Bros tournament, that was fairly recent. They shut down their online services without any care for purchases made. I bought a switch after skipping their last 2 consoles and handhelds but I don't plan on buying anything Nintendo in the future. They take things to the extremes, they legitimately hate their fans. They're honestly right up there with the likes of Acti, EA, and Ubi, only difference is that they disguise themselves as being family friendly all the while being shady.
Hanzala from eXputer: "The cruel hammer of Nintendo has fallen. Farewell, 3DS and Wii U, you surely brightened my life and many others; you won't be forgotten."
lol you actually don't even need to click on the story to see the list xD
ninja gaiden = maybe
metal gear solid = maybe
grand theft auto = maybe
kingdom hearts = likely
portal = never
valve would do portal on wii IF they could but they can't so i wouldn't hold my breath for that
all the others are maybe but at this point im not holding my breath
The wii doesn't need existing multiplatform games. What they need are 3rd and 1st parties to make games worth playing.
Wii only had a "1 year" drought(2008), 09-10 was and will be a great year for the system in terms quality games.
Microsoft and Sony fans will now have the chance to experience the motion craze that captivated the gaming market.Its just a little odd that some "core gamers" still refuse to adapt to the ideal controlling method....
Ninja Gaiden with Zelda TP's swordplay? No thanks. Pulling combos THAT fast wouldn't be practical with motion controls, IMO. We're already getting a sorta "Metroid Gaiden"-type thing with M:OM, and it looks fantastic, though, so Tecmo doing something else with Nintendo isn't out of the question.
Portal will never happen, so forget that. MGS and KH appear to have found a home on 3DS.
That leaves GTA, and I don't see it happening. Chinatown Wars was great, and it showed that they can think outside of the box with a different type of hardware to work with. It's a shame they haven't shown any interest in Wii.
