I don't understand this. Why should publishers support something they don't think is going to be successful? (And isn't successful.)
OMG
So they expect Zelda 2015, that still doesnt mean much but at least we can start with the expectation of having a new Zelda NEXT YEAR!! The same year as MGS5!! The last time an MGS and Zelda game hit the same year, 1998, the greatest gaming year ever.
And, once again, WHERE THE FUCK IS SHIN MEGAMI X FIRE EMBLEM ? ! ?
Looks like 2015 should be fantastic for Nintendo, if that schedule stays the same.
The Sims 4 finally unlocked an hour ago. This is the first one I've played since the original, and a LOT has changed in 14 years!
Only 1 week away now for Destiny and NHL '15. Get HyYYYYYYYPED!!!
Fairweather friends can suck my dick.
And publishers would rather make two skus for MS and two for Sony, rather than a single sku for Wii U. Sorry, I can't abide by this shit. I've been a gamer since I was a young child and now they are not going to provide me with games? Fracturing the market into Everybody vs Nintendo? Even Wii got games like Boom Blox.
This^ and after a few updates on my browser the box gets 10x longer and makes it impossible to post updates
You don't think it's important to support innovation and the oldest and only sole gaming platform company left with a history as rich as they have? It's fine and normal to totally bone a system within a couple of months? To not support a platform even if it's fiscally viable to do so? Even if sales are increasing 3x in software and hardware sales?
A sequel to a 3DS game coming to every platform except 3DS and Wii U? A gamecube game coming to every platfrom except Nintendo? That's total and complete bullshit and I wont abide by that. I've always bought multiple gaming systems, if I do get a new system this gen, I'll be getting all my games used. Publishers will not be getting my money unless the game is exclusive.
I'm sorry but if everyone wants to ride the AAA dudebro train to homogeny and stagnation, I'll be getting out and walking. You guys disagree? Suck my dick too!
Supporting innovation is important to me, not to anyone else (apart from you). It’s totally fine to do everything else in this paragraph, though. It’s hypocritical to act like it’s all Nintendo’s fault, but it’s also hypocritical to act like it’s all the publishers fault. Nintendo made a stupid console for this generation. Publishers reacted by killing it off, then said it was shit to begin with...which it kinda was (I love the Wii U, but they shot themselves in the foot by releasing it so early, and so much weaker than the other consoles). So they both suck and they’re both to blame.
Yeah, of course it’s fine. Why wouldn’t it be? It’s not a Nintendo IP. No one stole it from Nintendo. It’s Capcom’s and Capcom can do what they want. I see nothing wrong here whatsoever. Was I disappointed Abe went from Sony to Microsoft? Of course, but it’s not like it was a personal betrayal. It also wasn’t a betrayal to Sony, as this is not a betrayal to Nintendo.
Then why are you pissed off that AAA dudebro games aren’t coming to Wii U?
What part of suck my dick don't you understand? Do you want me to post a picture of a dick?!
Your view and views like this are reliant on people who think the Wii U sucks and is shit to begin with. I don't share this view, so I never agree with people who seem to think Wii U sucks and deserves to die in hell, because EVERYBODY COULD SEE IT YEARS AGO BEFORE IT WAS EVER RELEASED bullshit. Wii was also a lot weaker and still got support, publishers are still making versions of "Next gen" games for weaker systems like the PS3 and 360 so the weaker argument is bullshit in many cases too. Hell Ubisoft will even go out of their way to make past generation Assasins Creed.
Capcoms recent RE decisions are repugnant and a blatant kick in the nuts to the people who bought those games in the first place and I'm a little tired of people here acting like I'm the only one to think so and giving me the weird stink eye. I'm not in the minority to this. Here are some other opinions from around the web:

I like how when devs do this to Nintendo, the majority never bats an eye; but everyone was clamoring and up in arms when Bayonetta 2 was a Wii U exclusive.

I just can't see the justification. I was pretty sure that all of Capcom's Offerings on WiiU have sold decently.

I could barely understand the REmake remastered decision, this one makes literally no sense.

That's Capcom for you.
Absolutely livid! Brought it on 3DS (the system it originated on!) and Wii U, and now they say that it won't come to any nintendo system!!!
Volmun said:
oh thanks Capcom.. just ignore the ppl who got the Orignal (and then got the WiiU Ver)
avcol said:
I wish them GREAT loses with this title! This is just don't right! I bought the original for my 3DS a week after it came out on a full price of 40$ and I'm sure alot more did. I just can't get the reasoning behind this dumb decision...

And nothing of value was lost. Have fun milking another spinoff Capcom. Eventually every franchise you have will run dry.

Remisio said:
@liavcol Now I realize those 40+$ were a complete waste of my money. It was a fun game, and I really enjoyed it. I was hoping it'd turn out like FF:CC did for SE as in a Nintendo exclusive spin off franchise. But Naaah, they released it on consoles with more content. Which still didn't anger me much really... But this is dumb. Capcom appears to have a tendency to not really care about fans. I won't really be surprised when MH5 is announced PS4 exclusive or whatever. It just means it's another franchise I stop caring about.
Phoenix Wright becomes iOS exclusive.

I don't mind this skipping Wii U but it does seem harsh on the 3DS owners who pretty much made this game possible. Imagine the outpouring of internet hatred if RE7 turns out to be a Wii U exclusive. It would probably be good for the series like RE4 was

This is stupid. I loved the first revelations on the 3ds. I still want to play the second revelations but now might get it cracked for pc in pure spite of this terrible decision.
TreonsRealm said:
I have long been a supporter of Capcom having bought EVERY Nintendo based Resident Evil but I am done with them after this BS (RE: Revelations 2 and RE: Remake HD skipping Wii U). It's especially stupid when you consider that RE: Revelations sold best on 3DS (also the main reason it sold worst on Wii U since most Wii U owners already owned it on 3DS and that version was actually better). Let's also remember that it wasn't Capcom that made the game which is probably why it was actually good (TOSE made RE: Revelations and I doubt they're working on the new one).
The numbers don't lie, for the current generation the Wii U is second place worldwide and first place in Japan by a wide margin (over a million more systems sold than PS4) so Capcom ignoring the system is just plain stupid when you consider the Resident Evil fanbase on Nintendo consoles due to previous "exclusives". These types of decisions are exactly why the company is sinking and why the people who made them a major third party have all bailed on them (Shinji Mikami, Hideki Kamiya, Keji Inafune). At this point, I am enjoying watching the company crash and burn and can't wait for other companies to come in and pick off the remains and actually do something right with their franchises. I look forward to Nintendo buying the Mega Man IP for next to nothing and reviving the franchise (Hell, they'll probably hire Keji Inafune & Comcept to do it).
----------------------------------------
On a personal note I would like to be able to express my contempt for these decisions without getting the weird look stinkeye and being drawn into lengthy repeated discussions that we've all trawled over a million times before and never agree on anyway.
I think it sucks! You don't think it sucks! Big shit.
If I'm going to have to justify how I feel every time when I've explained how I feel a billion times already maybe I'm on the wrong site.
On this, at least AAA games on Wii U try and make some innovative features with the pad and have offscreen play. It's something new vs nothing new. And lets face it, I need something to play, having something vs nothing? Obviously I choose something.
I'm being given the choice of nothing.
In the past there were alternatives, if you couldn't port Dead Space there was Dead Space extraction. THQ decided to make De Blob, EA made Boom Blox, Ubisoft made Red Steel, hell even Capcom made Zack and Wiki. Now.... there are no alternatives from these big companies. It's utterly boring.
GG...think about it this way. If you think Capcom is fucking Nintendo by not releasing REmake on the Wii U, how do you think Playstation fans felt when they made a remake of a PS1 game exclusive to the Gamecube in the first place? For 10 years?
The PC side waits for you GG. It is time.
We have such sights to show you...
Welcome to 2001 GG. How do you think every single PS owner felt when THEIR RESIDENT EVIL franchise went to the kiddie machine Gamecube. Payback is a bitch.
Capcom has always done this. Wii got support cause it sold 100 million units, Wii U will sell less than GC. Yes they had basically one month to prove to devs the wii u wouldn't flop before all support was pulled, not that fair but that is business.
So my advice stays, buy a PS4 and be happy. I have a Wii U, I enjoy it, doesn't bother me one bit that it has no third party games cause I have a PS4.
But it yes you are right this sucks. The game industry sucks a lot at times. You need to many bet around the shit and find what works for you. If RE never went to the cube perhaps I never buy a GC. So good things sometimes come of it.
...boy I seem to have lost weight ever since my soul was removed.

Yeah that is total BS.
I'm calling it now. The Moon is a she and Skullkid is a he.
Destiny review copies are going out the day before launch meaning there will be no reviews at launch. This is probably cause of some server issue or they want to prevent a bunch of people playing it before launch.
what will be funny is seeing which review sites rush through the game to have the first review.
Most everyone played the game already so no review is needed.
No review needed for Destiny, it's a 10/10 game.
They might not even happen Miyamoto said they were concepts that might be implemented into the new Star Fox.
