My 3DS is getting so much love lately! I've not played on my PS4 or WiiU since late Jan/early Feb I think because I've been 3DS'ing... catching up on Zelda ALBW (finished) and LM2 and then hitting MH4U, which I simply can't get enough of!

I've just realised I've missed the last couple month's PS+ games. D'oh! I need to switch my PS4 back on at some point. Both it and the WiiU are just gathering dust thanks to my 3DS and (now) Monster Hunter 4 Ultimate.

"Indiestation 4"... and yet @Ronnie says other people are cringeworthy! Hahaha I'm on the forum because I'm still a fan of some of Nintendo's output, as well as me having been here since the N64-Europe days.

Yeah I agree with that. Nintendo have adopted the shitty practice with Splatoon's DLC but the Amiibo itself (which granted is required to buy the DLC) is still good value because it'll do more than just that.

I don't think any of the consoles have yet had a generation defining game.

Did you even read my post..?! Don't be so bloody dumb!

Because it's not just Day 1 DLC @Sheikah. That's why. How are you not grasping this point?

That's what I ask for Nintendo's next console. Give us parity... online features, Party Chat etc, but also make the console similar in architecture. If they did the ease of porting games would make it so much more viable for 3rd Parties to port their games.

The thing with the Amiibo is that they can be used on multiple games across multiple systems. This is why you're incorrect @Sheikah. The Amiibo isn't Day 1 DLC, it's simply a key. Splatoon has Day 1 DLC, correct, but Amiibo is not that DLC because it can be used with other games too to unlock other DLC, so in this respect Amiibo is fantastic value. Calling out Nintendo for making the Splatoon DLC Day 1 DLC is fair enough I agree, but to call out the Amiibo as being Day 1 DLC is incorrect as it's much more than that. Still, I do think they should offer the DLC separately to being unlocked by Amiibo in their games.

But there are already 2 CoD games on the WiiU and they both support full voice-chat.

His whole post explains it well enough. He even states dependant on the content the Amiibo unlocks that he may withdraw his point. Come on Sheikah, at least read his whole post.

I loved it, it didn't end the way I thought it might but I still liked how it did and am looking forward to seeing where it goes from here (I've heard a second season is coming..?).

Another fantastic One Piece chapter. Next chapter though... oh my! Those last few panels, those two words!!!

It's not just voice-chat. It's their whole mentality towards multiplayer and online gaming and the poor functions of which they have. I don't enjoy their multiplayer games anymore. It's not just because of voice chat. You should probably stop obsessing over other's opinions, that's the real cringeworthy thing!

I don't believe this would happen.

Read my post again, because it's not a product I feel is good, I don't think it should sell because it's sets a bad precedent. As if sub-par products are ok. I'm allowed to have the opinion that it's sub-par as a result of the lack of voice chat. It's not being "immature and entitled", it's an opinion, simple as that. That you don't like my opinion, fair enough, you're entitled to not like it, but you're wrong in saying it's "entitled and immature". Just accept it.

I don't feel I am. They've made a product I'm not happy with. I want them to remedy their shortcomings (knowing they've no plans to drop out of hardware manufacture) but if they don't remedy the problems then I'd want them to be forced into going 3rd Party. This suits me best as I'd only really need to be buying one console then and I'd not have to shell out for a console I'm not happy with.

It's funny because it's true.

Best sentence on N-E!

It's not immature. I don't see this as a good product. I don't feel poor products should sell as it sets a bad precedent. If it was a product I felt to be good I'd hope it would sell well. That's a perfectly reasonable view to have. If anything, your comment was the more immature of the two of ours.

I'm so glad the WiiU is flopping. It's not a good enough console for it to deserve to sell well. My other reason for being glad is that it makes me hope Nintendo will address their hardware and mantra on gaming (specifically online & multiplayer) as a result and get up to speed with the rest of the industry. If they don't then I hope their next console flops even harder and they then go 3rd Party.

I hope this game flops miserably. Nintendo don't deserve it selling well.

This is why I hate the gaming press sometimes, nobody really questions them! Nintendo get let off the hook for being Nintendo.

I swear to god Hero, I wanted to resist posting and leave it but it made me fucking explode! It just shows how backwards and regressive their way of thinking is... these are the young up'n-comers and they're not forward thinking either! It's so infuriating! I can't see me getting the next Nintendo console at this point. Only second hand and cheap, just for a couple single player games. What happened to Nintendo pushing the industry forward?! They're stuck in the 90's!!!

The whole "we didn't include voice chat because we didn't like getting told we were crap" is such a shitty fucking reason! MUTE you dumb fuckers, mute! They could've put an option in the game, prior to starting the online mode where you could choose to have voice chat on or off. It could've been a fucking pop-up mandatory option when selecting to go online! This is such a shitty fucking arsehole response! "No, you can't talk to friends because we don't like talking to randoms" they're basically giving us a fuck you. My sig says it all.
