New Zelda, SSBB, Metroid and Mario 3D sure as hell aren't coming this year. That's all I care about.
Not interested in their b-grade offerings like Kirby or Yoshi.
It really is the equivalent to "hullabaloo" - fuss is much to tame a translation. A really ridiculous word I wouldn't expect to see written down, much less on a company site.
How do you know Mario isn't coming this year? I was under the impression that it was. Just cause you only view those four games as big doesn't mean everyone else doesn't. I guess the sequel to best RPG of this past gen isn't a big game then, close shop for Nintendo.
2D Mario is already out, and there are reports that Nintendo are aiming for an October release of 3D Mario. But they are no more than rumours at this point.

The no games thing doesnt apply anymore.

That transfers onto next gen or if you have both systems at hand. So it's not that draconian in comparison to the competition.

All next gen consoles have that game.
Correct. It has 4 games now. What, you guys wanted more!?

It's got Monster Hunter. It doesn't need anything else.
I'm waiting for W101 but fair enough!

Not really. PS4 already has like 30 something announced titles. A lot of which will be available at launch.
Yea and all those are coming this year and they're all exclusive AAA games.
Some people are also looking for an improvement in graphics when they buy a next gen console...

I speak German (natively) and have no idea what's supposed to be so hilarious about the word "Gedöns".
My people have a weird sense of humor that I rarely get.

All consoles not named SNES, N64, DreamCast or XBOX. Potentially PS4 could be in that group if Sony learned their lesson with the PS3 launch and Shadow. Opting to drop the Last Guardian at launch.
A man can dream and Wii U fans can wait.

how many ps4 and Xbone games are out right now?
oh wait...
wii U is the one with games.
You don't think Nintendo can show a game on Wii U that looks better than PS3/360 games?

You wont be able to lease all the games you can lease on the other consoles though.

A monumental acomplishment after 8 years.
Nintendo has good looking games even on the GC, so of course it's expected they have some lookers in the Wii U.
The Wii U is barely more powerful than a PS360. I'm sure people will get games on it that look ever so incrementally better than what came on those platforms, but it's not the leap people have traditionally expected from consoles. It's Nintendo coming up to the standards of last-gen, when people want the standards of next-gen for their technology.
I mean Wii U may end up being my only console by default, but that'd definitely be an unsatisfactory result - the console is simply too shitty, tech-wise.
no its not. unified accounts doesn't make DRM less restrictive. attaching games to an account rather than something sellable (a console) is actually another layer of restriction

At least you can talk. Who are you?
The difference being that one of those consoles has been out for almost 8 months, and the other two haven't been released...

Should've been "keine spiele"
In my honest opinion, the next-gen games I've seen really don't impress me much. I don't see a major difference that interests me. I think Nintendo will be ok without having the latest tech for graphics whores to go nuts over. Give me great games and I'll be happy cause I know all the 1st party stuff will look good enough for me.
This is exactly why no publishers and developers are supporting Wii U. They all want the next-gen DRM that Sony & MS are bringing.

Don't sell your console. Problem solved.

Which is always the case when this argument is brought up, Vita, PS3 etc. Though typically they refer to system selling games which we don't know for any consoles yet.

I saw this coming.. nothing special here.
That's fine if you think that, and if Wii U is good 'enough' for you. I was just saying that it's not near good enough for many, many gamers, and so it's not enough to say Wii U is drm-less... it obviously has other significant problems. So if you don't want this Drm bullshit, and both Sony and Microsoft adopt it, then you have to settle for last-gen technology for a whole 'nother six years. It's not ideal conditions.
