Hey Nintendo, tell me again how the Switch won't replace the Wii U.

Unless I missed that they never said that, they said it wouldn't replace the 3DS (which is still getting titles released)

Surprising absolutely no one. What was the last first party Wii U title to date?

Paper Mario Color Splash which came out October i think

They did say nx won't replace wii u or 3ds

Remember that rumor that said it was going to be canned? Because I do.
Glad to see I was right and not really sad to see the Wii U go. The poor system had a rough life, it's time for the Wii U to get some rest.

Sad but inevitable news for the WiiU as Nintendo of America President Reggie Fils-Aime broke the news...

Eh, all joking aside, at least they aren't taking the axe to the console's online services yet. Hell, Microsoft still hosts services for the Xbox 360, even integrating it into the new Windows 10/Xbox One environment, and it's old as dirt by comparison. I don't expect Wii U online services to stick around for much longer, though, unlike the 360.

Imo they should support the two consoles, they still hold up great.

Maybe just include a payed subscription service for the Wii U & 3DS tho along with the Switch.

I think it could be a great idea but hacks could be a problem... Edit: Even if they had to stop progress on the console. I still think the main reason to still support it is the payed online, games are still great, and hardware is to. (Most of the time.)

Will there be an update exclusively for this title? I wouldn't be surprised

What do you mean by update? Like a content update ...or homebrew exploit?

You know, that good ol stability update

petethepug · Jan 19, 2017

Oh, yeah I kinda know what you mean
It shouldn't hopefully be that bad though, they've been working on it since 2014 I think? Last thing imo that wouldn't be as stable in the release would be the bugs and glitches in the game.

One of the points of the Switch, is not to split their main focus between consoles.

I hope they don't mess with the last consoles to have free online. Just please don't.

I kinda thought that was what they were doing with the Wii U & 3DS when no one really knew at the time what the Switch was called yet.

I was thinking if they did support the online with their plan they are going to do with the Switch, the console would still be supported, and liked (similar to the PS4, PS3, PS Vita, PSP etc...) Becuase I know some people still do enjoy the console functionality with online modes.

And even if people didin't want that, people would figure out ways similar to the Wiimifi Mod to change the wifi functions to play on a online service besides Nintendo (with limited support.)

I wouldn't be suprised it it was the last game for the Wii U

Alkéryn · Jan 19, 2017

Well the switch is what WiiU should have been all along so yeah

kehkou · Jan 20, 2017

I thought they said that a loooong time ago. Who the heck was expecting more games after BotW anyway?

Now we're just sharing songs, that's somehow related to the situation.

Its amazing the 3DS is older than Wii U and still has games being made for it with no sign of slowing down.

I hope the same can be said for Switch.

I dunno, i guess the timing was better? I figured that most people don't have time to play games at home on console which is why there is a market for things like 3DS, psvita and those endless smartphone games, cause it easier to manage and have only such time for it. Unlike someone who does have time for consoles. More people working aren't working with the kind of schduel that allows time to game at home, instead on the go. You can only play console on tv, but you can play 3ds anywhere.

I think the idea of the switch was a possible test for the idea of portable gameplay, but since most titles lacked the gamepad screen game play rather than maybe focused more on just trying to make a NDS on TV with the second screen feature. I like the idea of wii u especially for multiplayer, since those kinds of games like sonic sega all star racing can use up to 5 players instead of 4, and if 2 are playing, each player has their own screen. If the theory of using multiple game pads was real, it would be a good multiplayer console with each player having to not worry about sharing screens with that cross section for multiplayer games.

Now that switch is a console/mobile hybrid, it can do what the wii u was trying to do but possibably better. So i consider a wii u a beta test for switch market. Probably the wrong idea but it how it seems, problem is now it seem less of a console. I honestly had this to say since october's reveal video that i was concerned about the idea of focus less on console at home on tv game play, since it is usually where the fun has been for years with their console games. Since nintendo expressed interest in mobile market i could have seen this happening right after they ended club nintendo and started miitomo and then pokemon go and super mario run. I'm a bit scared but i hope is not as bad as i think it is with the mobile focus this time around.

So the Wii U is the first Nintendo console for a long time that didn't get a Metroid game. Sad.
