Smash Wii U Do you have your Wii U already or are you planning on getting one later?

[D-idara]

So, funny story. I went into Wii Mode and downloaded Ocarina of Time and Majora's Mask.

Didn't think about the fact that I'd need a classic controller for them. Had to order one online. Oh well, it'll be worth it.

I also went on a Wii U buying spree. Scribblenauts Unlimited, Tropical Freeze, Sonic Lost World, Wonderful 101, Wii Party U, Wind Waker HD, and Tekken Tag Tournament 2, to go along with NSMB U, Luigi U, Mario & Sonic at Sochi, and NBA 2K13. Oh, and NES Remix.

It actually wasn't too big of an expense, since I know how to find really good deals. I'm loving all this, though.

You deserve a medal, every little game bought counts

Yeah my opnion exactly, but I don´t think mario is slow. When you start running on the stages (2d game) is hard to stay in control. But I prefer DK to Mario.

The Bosses is WAY BETTER than DKC trilogy.

Try Rayman Legends before buying. I was burned, too many stages with touch control, few with normal gameplay. It is a shame.

Implying that the Murfy stages aren't tons of fun.

 

[RelaxAlax]

Wii U is not a bad system! It's just lack of games.

Since Tropical Freeze has come out, that's kept me busy. Miiverse can be nice to visit and post to. I even started playing Earthbound later in the nights in bed on my Gamepad and it runs flawlessly, not to mention it's the screens big enough and the sound is surround so i can feel immersed in the game. Also, I got Megaman 1 and 2 on there for whenever. I even got a little frisky and went on Youtube to watch some subscriptions. Besides being a bit annoying when i put the gamepad down (video changes when you click the right or left triggers -.-) it was good.

Seriously, when games start coming for this thing people will be able to see where it shines.

 

[Fire Emblemier]

I've had a Wii-U since the beginning of last Summer. For the past couple of weeks it was collecting dust, but Tropical Freeze changed that.

I have a couple of games for it such as Mario Bros. U, 3D World, Monster Hunter 3U, Tropical Freeze, Nintendo Land, I got Earthbound the day it came out, I also have my Wii VC, which is a lot so I rather not bother stating it all...

I thought about getting WWHD, but decided not to, since I still have and play the original. Nintendo Land kind of got boring quickly. Monster Hunter is really fun and addictive, but if you manage to stop playing for a while, it's hard to come back to. Mario U was kind of boring, it just felt like all the others, sadly. 3D World was loads of fun, and playing as all the different characters is great. DKTF is really fun and provides a challenge, but I find Dixie broken compared to the other Kongs, Cranky and Diddy. Earthbound I was playing a lot, but stopped touching when I was at the Stonehenge base, trying to get that annoying Sword for Poo.

 

[soviet prince]

right now my wii u is playing wii games ( xenoblade is amazing if you have not played it get it now, this is coming from someone who does not tend to be patience enough to play jrpgs)

 

[Staarih]

I'm getting my pay check next week so I've been slowly starting to search for any good deals/bundles for the Wii U out here. I'm still not sure if I'll buy it just yet though - I surely will before and for SSB4, but right now, I feel like it's not a priority. I barely have time to play handheld games: I'm always working or doing something else, and home console games always take much more effort than handhelds soo, haha... it may not be my go-to thing right now, unless I find a deal I can't pass! Will surely get one eventually though, not only for SSB4 but other games I'm interested in as well.

 

[Trick or Treat]

Add the Ninja Gaiden game to my list.

I feel kind of silly since I've only played one Gaiden game before, so I don't really have any attachment or knowledge of the characters/story, but it looked so good (aaaaand it was only $9 on Amazon).

I've gone back and forth on whether I should get it or not. It seems kinda confusing and complicated, considering how I've only really played classic 2D turn based JRPGs. I'd definitely get it if I could find it for a cheaper price, but since it's still so expensive, I want to know that I'm going to love it.

it's not complicated ( use the wii remmote and numchuck) it's actually pretty simple to learn and play. What I did to help pass the time while lv up is playing the game on the wii u controller while watching tv. Gamestop sells used copy's for 60 now.

You can't on outdated hardware.

 

[Superyoshiom]

I already bought a Wii U some time ago

You can on hardware that's about 4X faster than the PS3.

That's a gross overstatement of the systems capacity. Statistically it is more powerful, but when translated in game it's only capable of keeping it's graphics above par of last ganeration. The Wii U support, like the Wii, will only get the sloppy seconds of last generation, first party titles and occasional shovelware or games that not many people want. While the Wii U is innovative and has hardware that intermingles with the system itself, it's wise not to expect anything grandiose to be released on this system from 3rd party developers because the system design alienates developer interaction and forces developers to abandon development on current generation hardware, it's a step forward for the people at Nintendo who know how to make games for it, but a step backward for every other 3rd party developer who wants to advance in the industry.

The system is doomed to repeat what the Wii did minus the motion control boom that it had. Reason being that Nintendo decided to stay behind in the hardware department once again. I understand that they do these things to make it more affordable, but if you can charge 300 to 350 dollars for a system, and a system like the Playstation 4 is only 400 dollars, a 50 dollar difference for something much much more powerful, then I don't think Nintendo has much of an excuse to be honest. Gaming is an expensive luxury as it is, and I'm not willing to spend more money on something that I had 5 years ago. Smash is literally eh only exception to this rule I and many others are willing to break, so in just gonna get an 8gb on ebay for 100-150 or something.

And that's your problem, Wii U has lots of next-gen, big-scale titles already released AND on the way, like SM3DW, Donkey Kong Country Tropical Freeze, Wonderful 101, Bayonetta 2...the Wii U's not something you had 5 years ago, Nintendo games are special. And the price IS RIGHT, the Wii U's not even near overpriced, it has the Gamepad, which is one of the best controllers Nintendo has ever produced.

And Nintendo fans are known for being used to highly-polished games with a lot of love put into them, so I don't see why Batman: Arkham Knight shouldn't be ported to the Wii U, just because it has a different architecture doesn't mean they can't take a little time figuring it out. I don't think Nintendo lacks hardware or power for this gen, we've seen what the Wii U CPU and GPU are capable of (Mario Kart 8) and I'm pretty goddamn sure that Batman Arkham Knight wouldn't be too hard to port to Wii U, I'd definitely buy it. Project CARS is shaping up to be one of the most hardware-intensive next-gen games and it's coming for Wii U too, it's just a lack of faith from the developers, and that's a bad thing, the Wii U doesn't get third-party support because the developers are piss-scared to not invest on the same thing over and over.

And it disgusts me how you keep calling the Wii U 'last-gen hardware' when it can output amazing graphics at an amazing FPS...I really doubt a game like Donkey Kong Country Tropical Freeze could run on 60FPS with those hair effects on DK's fur, just look at Sonic Unleashed, lagged like crazy on Xbox and SOMETIMES reached 60FPS on PS3.

The only thing that's really hurting the Wii U was the Wii's 'reputation'...even though the Wii also had an array of amazing, creative, epic games like the two Galaxies, DKC Returns, Kirby's Return to Dreamland, No More Heroes, Madworld, Super Smash Bros. Brawl, Mario Kart Wii, Metroid Prime Trilogy, etc.

Also, what are you doing buying Smash if you hate Nintendo so much?

 

[ChikoLad]

While the Wii U is my favoured next gen console (I've only touched the PS4 in my house twice), Nintendo is not going to get third party support as easily as other companies.

However, they have already announced plans to hand their IPs out to third parties, which is a good move. It's a different way of getting third party support, but it could be really beneficial for us, as the likes of Starfox and F-Zero may get another game for Wii U this way (and those two franchises would be huge system sellers if marketed right).

We are already seeing the first of this with Namco developing Smash 4, and with Koei developing Hyrule Warriors.

That's amazing, it gives third-parties a chance to develop for the system without the fear of their games not selling well, and once they're better with developing for the Wii U, they'll spend less time and resources porting the other games, which will be more profitable. I'm hopeful about the Wii U although I'll probably get a PS4 sometime in the future because Sony has amazing (Although unexploited) exclusives like Ratchet & Clank and inFamous. I just want the Nintendo Cycle to happen.

Also, everyone who buys a full-price Wii U deserves a 'Real Nintendo Fan' sticker or something.

 

[AncientArk]

I'm planning on getting one at the same time as Smash 4.
With the Wii, console didn't really hold my attention save for Brawl and Twilight Princess, didn't really have many games for it.

3DS for the same reason, although at the moment, I think I prefer the idea of playing Smash on the go more than having a single console for it.
Depends on budget in the end anyway.

The Wii U is running on hardware just as powerful as the xbox 360 and ps3

Not everyone wants to play Mario games. You just named 5 solid games that aren't for everyone, and it took 2 years for them to get here.

Arkham Knight can't be on Wii U because it's on weaker hardware. Period. I don't understand why you can't accept this simple fact.

I don't hate Nintendo--did I ever say I did? No. And even if I did hate them, it's my money and I can spend it on whatever I want.

I did my homework, and Arkham Knight could be on Wii U if Epic weren't a bunch of lazy-ass pushovers, Cry Engine 4 runs on Wii U, and they could port the game to Wii U, but it's obviously too hard to port the Unreal Engine 4 without the actual company having the tools or the support. And you're deluding yourself if you think the Wii U runs on hardware as powerful as PS3 and Xbox360, while my claim was a massive overstatement, yours is a massive understatement.

*Violent gagging*
So just because I got my Wii U for 200 bucks as opposed to the usual $300/350 means I'm not a real Nintendo fan? Yeah, okay, whatever you say.

Well, maybe that was a bit extreme, but I like to think that I've been supporting the Wii U from the very beggining, it also depends on what you think, if you think the Wii U's worth 300 but bought it at 200, then it's OK.

 

[Khao]

I'm probably getting one sometime next month, I'm gonna buying a decent HD monitor this month, 'cause I'm gonna need it before I get the console. (and also 'cause the current monitor in my PC is terrible)

But next month, I'm going for a Wii U. It's just starting to get a good enough library, which coupled with the currently announced games plus the ones that are bound to come at some point... It'll make for a good purchase.

I was half-tempted to get a PS3 instead, but I already played most of it's exclusives (the ones I care about, at least) at a friend's house, and I got a good enough PC to play every multiplatform game out there, and will still be good to go for a while. So yeah, the Wii U is the only gaming library relevant to my insterests I'm missing on right now.

Keep in mind that ones financial standing also factors in, I held off on buying a Wii U until I could find one I could afford and also still be able to pay the bills at the end of the month, but I see what you're saying.
And I grew up a Nintendo fan, I will die a Nintendo fan, and you can put that on my gravestone. Don't put that on my gravestone, that would be silly.

Captain Falcon's cheesy and silly, that doesn't stop him from being awesome and manly. The point I'm trying to make is that people should stop calling the Wii U overpriced because it's not. I understand that 350$'s a whole lot of money, it took me quite a while to save up for a Wii U. But anyway, every time I see someone buying a Wii U for not-Smash, my smile gets a little bigger.

just because you think the Wii U is worth a purchase at $350 or whatever price doesn't mean that other people do, especially when a PS4 comes for $400

edit: and the calling 3rd party devs lazy part is hilarious, why should they have to work with Nintendo in the first place

I know, it's kinda sad seeing people only buying one for Smash 4. There's a lot of good games on it that should be looked at, I mean the main reason I wanted to get one so bad was because of Pikmin 3 and, after E3, Mario 3D World, and DK Tropical Freeze is a great game as well (but you probably know that already). And I will say, my Wii U has definitely given me more than what it was worth.

 

[Fire Emblemier]

The main reasons I wanted to get the WiiU was the announcement that they were bringing Earthbound to the US VC. Also, MH3U, didn't hurt either.

I don't get why so many people try to act like Nintendo can do no wrong and that everyone critical of them is just a troll or a hater. We're all obviously Nintendo fans here, otherwise we wouldn't be on Smashboards in the first place. The fact of the matter is that the Wii U is doing major damage to Nintendo right now and it's a serious area for concern.

If you really care about Nintendo, you should be discussing what the problems are and how they could possibly be fixed, not denying that anything's wrong. It's that kind of thought process that got them so far deep into this mess in the first place.

 

[I_hate_usernames]

current PC graphic already outclass "Next gen graphics" of the PS4 and XBone.

PS4 has potential but all the Xbone has for it is exclusives snd that terrible peice called the kinect.

I don´t think that Nintendo is perfect, but you saw watch dogs nex gen trailer or Batman? The grapics are not that impressive.

And hive minded hate is so extreme on the internets that is a waste of time to argue. I have 24 years you really think that I gonna be lawyer to a video game producer?

But sincerely in my opnion there is no better, Microsoft, NIntendo or Sony. I saw in eastarland upcoming games to xbone because I am thinking in buying one for Killer Instinct....auahuah there is more games announced to Wii U. Of course xbone will have multis like Batman and TintanFall.

Who wins and who loses are not about quality, there are almost the same the only difference is taste, but is all about mind share. Making this whole industry a hive mind game.

I just love individuality and makes me sick that I can´t discuss with the world my hobby because EVERTHING is a "Who have the biggest ****?" discussion.

I really sorry if you are aggrieved about my opnion, it was not meant to offended people of "peace"

PS. I really think that is almost no upgrade on graphics department between past generation and this.

PS4 has potential but all the Xbone has for it is exclusives snd that terrible peice called the kinect.

This is why buying a console based on its power is a pretty stupid reason imo. If you want power, go PC, simple as that. The only reason to ever get a console to begin with are exclusives, by this point it's so damn easy to connect a controller to your PC too that the keyboard isn't even an excuse anymore.

The only ones who can't be replaced by a PC are Nintendo imo, because they always do something new with their consoles, like the Gamepad. The PS4 and XBone's only new features are ones that have been possible on PCs for ages, like live streaming, their graphical capabilities, watching TV, only thing that the PC can't do that one of these two consoles have is probably the XBone's voice recognition, which lets to be fair is a rather bland gimmick (and the PS4's touch pad, which is incredibly rarely used afaik.) Nintendo on the other hand has the Gamepad, something that the PC can't emulate, and it has tons of functionality both inside and outside gaming. Besides that, they also have the best exclusives of course, with many of the other console's system sellers like Call of Duty, GTA and Titanfall making it to the PC eventually. Heck, Kojima has even stated he'd like to port MGS to the PC.

These are the reasons I choose Nintendo at least, which wasn't my initial intention with this post, but whatever.

 

[MaxTheDawg]

I bought my wii u after christmas on boxing day 50 bucks off. mainly knowing that mk8 and smash 4 will come out eventually but i currently have mario and luigi u bc it came with it, mario 3d world, and wwhd.

 

[PadWarrior]

Don't forget to get Mario Kart 8 in May. Lately I've been on a huge Nintendo kick. Playing Wii games (Metroid Prime Trilogy, Brawl, Punchout, MKWii etc..) DKTF and both the Mario games on Wii U. It's an awesome system and off tv play is great for when someone else wants to watch TV.

 

[Wegenbarth]

Don't forget the Indis, compared to the masses on crapgames which came out for the Wii, those are small gems.

 

[DrizzyDrew]

definately getting one for smash. Maybe one for mario kart 8 once they announce what the heck they are doing with online.
