Oh they definitely need to learn how to help themselves. I can't believe how off the boil they have been with the whole marketing/positioning of the WiiU.

Well you worded it terribly then @Sheikah. I agree with the rest of your post, just thought that one sentence was trash.

Urgh. We were terrible in the second half, Newcastle deserved the win.

I agree with this, Nintendo need all bases covered but for some demented reason they're not doing so.

I know that, that's why I'm not arguing against it. I'm just saying you've made a silly remark saying that Nintendo consoles don't appeal to adults. That's all.

@Wii the ads are aired on children's channels because if thy can get children to want it then they've got themselves guaranteed sales at Christmas. Children will pester parents for want they want endlessly, so it makes sense to try and go for them at this time of year especially. However, @Sheikah, just because that's how Nintendo will push it this holiday season, it doesn't mean the console doesn't appeal to adults too, hence why all those on here that own one aren't 7 year olds.

I'm just looking at that statement because I think it's silly. All the people I know that play Nintendo games are of my age group. All children I know play 360 or PS3 and they play practically just CoD and FIFA. Try don't play Nintendo because "Nintendo is for kids" and that's "not cool", so they game on the "grown up consoles". When I'm gaming online on my WiiU, and even when I was on my Wii, it wasn't often I'd come across children playing. The people online were usually of similar age to myself. When I gamed on my 360 there was a constant barrage of kids online, mainly playing "adult" games. It's not me being in the minority, it's that Nintendo consoles sell to Nintendo fans who are generally adults that grew up on Nintendo. The exception being the Wii which sold to absolutely everyone. If children loved Nintendo consoles so much the WiiU would be selling very well, simply because it's what kids would be demanding as presents and pestering their parents to get them.

Hold on, it's still Treyarch working on the Nintendo version?! Infinity Ward still not bothering?

At 31 years old I never realised I was not yet an adult. What a silly statement you've made there. Those that have a WiiU will more than likely be adults. Given that it's not sold too well then we could guess that generally speaking only the die-hard Nintendo fans have bought it, those people being of similar age to myself for the simple fact that they grew up on Nintendo and love the games they make, it's in our blood.

I dunno, sales of Mario Kart Wii and NSMBWii suggest that they wouldn't. Don't hate the system, don't hate the users, hate the rubbish that people talk.

I may well have met the perfect girl! Not only is she funny, sweet, smart, quite adorable and out of this world stunning (seriously breathtaking) but lo and behold she loves super-hero films and even better than that; she's a bit of a gamer! Lucky fucker I am!

Extinction doesn't do it for me. Never really enjoyed the horde mode type games... I'd much rather slaughter randoms in multiplayer!

What the hell did I just watch there?!

I'm not posting in the bad stuff thread.

My favourite 3D Zelda games probably go like this... OOT - perfection SS - almost perfect, Fi was annoying TP - great but the world didn't feel "alive" WW - great but sailing was a huge pain in the ass MM - great but the time limit/return back to the first day just wasn't for me MM is the only 3D Zelda I haven't bothered replaying.

It'll be a full parity version of the game but probably won't get any DLC. It will have Wiimote support too I believe.

Oh man, you would not believe the stories I have! I've done Thailand... by which I mean I've "done" Thailand. I'm in work so can't exactly type up the stories but yeah, that story is very "cute". I've got some jaw-dropping belters!

The name is not irrelevant, the name "Link" is a choice piece of game design! He is the link between you and the game world, through this avatar you experience all the emotion that the games bring. He is the link and should therefore remain "Link".

Bugger, I'd booked the day off work for it too as I had holidays to use! Haha

Yeah I told you off @Blade! You should always name Link "Link", anything else is sacrilege!

I was told once at both Game and Gamestation that Black Ops wasn't coming out on Wii. I just told them that they obviously weren't good enough at their job to talk to me and that I wanted to talk to someone that knew how to do their job. They weren't happy!

Mario Kart 8 is there, it's great of course. 3D World is good, not Galaxy good but 3D Land good. Sonic Lost World was pretty damn decent, maybe better than Mario. Zelda: A Link Between Worlds was great. Oculus Rift was amazing, absolutely breathtakingly good! AC4 on the PS4 wasn't really all that I expected it to be, looked just like another current-gen game. There were a couple nice effects but still, nothing that a high-end PC wouldn't outshine. Met @Cube, hope you managed to get your hands on the Oculus Rift, that was amazing! All in all though, it was not as good as last year by a long shot.

Ok, I'm ready to hit the Play Expo, will be setting off shortly with @Blade and @Zechs Merquise Can't wait to see the Oculus Rift! I'm still gutted there aren't more WiiU games there though, would've loved to have tried Mario Kart 8!

The end to this game was all kinds of epic! Ended up loving the game. Hilarious and over the top... brilliant!

Did you not actually read his post?
