[Let’s Talk] The end of Wii U

Posted on November 12, 2016 by (@NE_Brian) in Let's Talk, Wii U

Sooner rather than later, the Wii U will be meetings its end. The Switch will be here to replace it in just a few months. And if that wasn’t enough, Nintendo said this week that production of Wii U will be ending in Japan soon. The final shipments for the fiscal year were also already sent to North American retailers.

With Wii U on its way out, I was thinking it might be nice to hold a dedicated Let’s Talk topic to the system. Four years later, how do you feel about it? Do you believe Wii U was an overall failure, or does it have redeeming qualities? What’s your favorite game on the console? Share your thoughts with us below!

Highlights from last week’s topic: What are you playing? – November 2016

Lord Drieg

With Sun and Moon looming, it was just the perfect motivator for me to play a little Pokémon X, in which I haven’t gone past the third town. (I have played and completed Y, so… yeah) Also, Level-5’s little gem known as Fantasy Life has suddenly grabbed my interest once more. I haven’t finished it yet so maybe I’ll complete a little more before Sun and Moon release.

Hyrule Warriors now that Ravio and Yuga are out. Also Fatal Frame 5. When I first played it, I didn’t really like it because I felt it was too slow-paced and it wasn’t really doing a whole lot to frighten me other than a cheap jumpscare every now and again. Now that I’m replaying it, I’m getting more immersed thanks to its superb atmosphere and letting it play to my emotions. I can see why the franchise is held in such high regard by horror fans now.

Now if only Nintendo would release Crimson Butterfly and Mask of the Lunar Eclipse in NA. :/

I finished FF7 again not too long ago and playing that made me want to play FF6 again (my fav FF game) so I’ve just started playing that, currently at Nikeah after suplexing a goddamn train to death with Sabin and recruiting Gau, I was also playing Resident Evil Zero recently (because Halloween) but I had to put that on hold because I’m having trouble with the leech-men

I actually dug up my old NES top loader and I am figuring out Goonies II without looking at an online guide. I know back in the day, my dad made it to an underwater stage, but I am still trying to find that again to continue with the game ( my dad is no longer around, so I can’t ask him), so I am stuck just trying to figure out where to go next.
