That's a funny way of spelling Xbone, Ouya if we're counting non-major entities.

Considering that most of the best games on Switch are WiiU ports guess it wasn't that bad a console after all.
>>

That people consider 3D World to be a good game fills me with immense rage.

It has no games to lose, and even if it did have we forgotten

1 out of 9 games posted in that picture has been ported to the Switch.
Are you even trying?
>>
>>379335278
They aren't worth playing anymore because there's better versions elsewhere. Its a scam.
>b-b-but you got to play them early
Pokken was barely out for a year.
>>379335320
I still would've rather had an Xbone than a Wii U
My roommate had one and I'm sure he had more fun with it than I had with my Wii U
>>
>>379335302

It's alright. Got a cheap 3D World bundle and it was worth the 15 hours I put into it. It's not worth $60 though.
>>
>>379335343
Smash Switch is getting announced at E3
People are begging for XCX to be ported so that'll happen too
Splatoon isn't worth playing anymore since the sequel comes out next month

>it was worth the 15 hours I put into it
that's an unusually short playtime, how far did you get?
>>
>>379335407

To each their own, I'd rather have a box that plays Bayonetta 2 and Fatal Frame 5 than a Xbone. Kind of a no-brainer on my end, actually.
>>
>>379335551
Fatal Frame 5 is censored so I have absolutely no interest in it.
>>
>>379335501

I beat it, all 13 or however many worlds there were. This was a few years ago.
>>
>>379334996
You're fucking dedicated dude, I'll give you that. I just hope it blows back in your face and the collective knee-jerk of /v/ will finally make people realise that the Wii U is actually a good console.
>>
>>379335592

I'm a Fatal Frame fan so I didn't care. I accepted the terms of the monkey paw. If anything, not getting that fantastic LE that Europe got was what hurt me the most.
>>
>>379335097
Xbone will win this E3 hands down and you'll eat your mario hat
>>
>>379335727
/v/ won't like the Wii U now that the Switch is out. All the good Wii U games will come to switch anyways.

I would, actually. I'd eat a Mario hat if MS can win an E3 in the Xbone era at this point. They aren't catastrophically awful, just resoundingly pointless at this juncture. I almost want to be proven wrong but goddamn, is that console's existence a bore to behold.

>>379336923

I could turn the game on for the first time in like 4 years I guess. I didn't beat it with every character, I just ran through it once. 3D World really isn't that long, man.
>>
>>379337105

Actually, I take that back. More like 3 years, got my WiiU in 2014, not 13.
>>
>>379337053
They're literally all flat one-dimensional characters with no depth or personality.

I'm just wondering if you maybe missed the bonus worlds, as people sometimes do. As all worlds in 15 hours seems unusually quick for a first playthrough to me

pitiful lineup, and the sad thing is that it's still better than ps4 and xbone.

Literally the only system with games. And games plural, at that. Shit was tight.

The games were trash though.
When Hyrule Warriors is considered a top 10 game then you know the library is complete shit.

Most of those are getting ported to Switch, getting them on Wii U is complete waste.

Okay, it was a little longer than 15 hours but again, remembering what I played years ago here. And the crown world was the last world, right? That's the last thing I did.
>>
>>379337460
Even if I agreed with that, what's it competing with? All Sony had at the time and even sorta now is Bloodborne, Microsoft had literally nothing. I had more fun and spent more time just playing Tr4sh with my friends than I have with the entirety of my PS4 exclusives.

You don't say?
Sure Pokken is better, because they intentionally withheld the DLC characters. (It isn't better for the Japanese, it's 60 for one character who will eventually come to arcades or be left out of the meta.) And Zelda BOTW is marginally better because they took out gamepad support. But even then, it's not unanimous, Mario Kart 8 Deluxe completely botched the balancing. And it doesn't change that I played these games for several years (Maybe a a year or two too few) before they suddenly were getting superior ports. (240P eye rape like HW Legends and Yoshi and Poochi don't count)

Ports to PS4 didn't invalidate the PS3 library. It just didn't do much to help the PS4 library. Same deal with the Switch and the WiiU.

Also the game is centred on exploration, which is the main reason why I enjoyed it so much. Now please, get off my back and let me enjoy thing. I swear to god I say something good about XBCX and you're right there telling how you hate it in the exact same fashion every time. Piss off.

the exploration isn't even fun

Pokken has barely been out for a year.
And if they're porting Pokken then they will literally port everything.
>>
>>379338481
just don't reply to them then you idiot
>>
>>379338712

Eh, I'm usually pretty slow at vidya. I didn't feel like I went through it terribly fast or anything.
>>
>>379338804
>Pokken has barely been out for a year.
I and pretty much everyone else on the WiiU got their playtime out of it already. There's a reason the WiiU supported successful online on Splatoon, Smash 4, and Mario Kart 8 and not Pokken. It's a fun little game but I don't think it's capable of holding a communities attention for very long
>And if they're porting Pokken then they will literally port everything.
That's great. Doesn't change the fact that the WiiU received these all as brand new titles. And they will never count as brand new titles for the Switch. And in at least one case the Switch version is inferior.
>>
>>379339226
>It's a fun little game but I don't think it's capable of holding a communities attention for very long
You might be right, I felt bad that I didn't play Pokken as much as I thought I should have but I guess that puts it in perspective
>>
>>379338913
That's actually a very very impressive completion time.
>>
>>379339323
It needed more refinement to be E S P O R T S, and apparently that's the only way a game with mutliplayer can make it past the 3 month mark these days.
>>
Really was not a bad system. The games that were made for it was great the problem is on the customer side it was confusing solely for the name for the average consumer. From the development side it is underpowered and does not allow for the same level of graphic wanking as then other consoles.
>>
>>379339326

Huh. Well again, I didn't do it with every character so I only have 4 sparkling stars on my file. Technically not "complete" but I cleared Champion's Road so fuck it.
>>
>>379338601

Yes it does
>>
>>379339895
Nope. Not since all of its games started getting ported to 3DS and Switch
>>
>>379339759
Fuck doing it with every character, that sounds stupid.

No, early access buyers typically don't get asked to pay for it a second time to get the finished product.
