If you could ask Nintendo President Satoru Iwata for one thing,what would it be?

I would ask him for a proper storage solution. One of the main reasons I bought a Wii was to play all of my favorite games from my childhood, the best time of my life. With the current storage solution, it's a pain in the bloody ass. N64 game's take up almost a quarter of the Wii's flash memory alone. This is ridiculous. I don't want to have to delete games, go to the Wii Shop Channel, and re-download games I have already bought, just in order to play Mario freakin' Golf. My Virtual Console collection is approaching 40 games, and it's getting to the point where I have to delete a game every time something new comes out. I thought the Wii was supposed to be about convenience and easy use? Having to access the internet just to play games I have already payed for is anything but convenient.

There is an easy way to solve this. Two, in fact. One is, enable Wii owners to read Virtual Console games off of SD Cards. It wouldn't even be that hard to configure. Make it so you mus talready have the game on your Wii Shop channel ( although this method may require instant internet access; there's probably tons of ways around this ) account, and when it sees that you have purchased the game, it will allow you to read it directly from the card itself.

Secondly, come out with a cheap, although well-made, external harddrive, that will give Wii owners more extra space than they know what to do with. I guarentee it would sell.

I would be more content with an external harddrive than any of the announced games coming out in 2009.

Honestly I've been nintendo for ages, before snes. and if i could ask him for one thing it would be. WHERE IN THIS GOD GIVEN EARTH ARE NINTENDO'S GAMES, BRING BACK STAR FOX.stike22

Exactly, thread ends here.

I'd pay Camelot money to start working on Golden Sun 3 and give Miyamoto a huge team and have him focus on Pikmin 3 and have the next Zelda title wait till he's done with Pikmin.Shy_Guy_Red

I'd ask howholographic storage works and to put 40GB of it in the Wii 2. Wii 2 should be HD so now we can put videos on the Wii.

I would ask for a hug. Seriously.Haziqonfire

this. and 10 bucks , afterall hes rich like jesus by now.

I would ask for a major update for the Wii.

Included would be:

• Storage solution (aka reading off of an SD card)
• Some way to better the online
• Every other idea I've come up with.

Basically, I cheated. But, the storage solution is a major priority as I'm running out of space! And I can't copy most of my data to an SD card because they have Wifi!

Are you serious they must have like what 2 teams if they are exhausted, Nintendo buy more teams release more of the good stuff. Mario Zelda Starfox Metroid Battalion wars fire emblem there are many others they could make and remake N64 were the best! remake them and add more levels with the graphics of today, instant millions. It would take like 3months(exaduration but still) to remake them and add more levels. If they are going to release games then they should release their own ones. As a true nintendo fan I can only say Nintendo were fools for letting the company Rare go.stike22

You do NOT want new college grads working on the some of the finest series in gaming. Remakes are lame excuses compared to original, quality games. And Rare is a terrible developer at this point. Even before, Rare was a shadow of Nintendo's. See Donkey Kong 64. Almost exact same formula as Mario 64.

This.

And a hard drive.

talking to me, heck yeh. anyone is welcome to join cause to bring nintendo to glory.stike22

No I don't want new college grads working on these games but for the love of...they have the cheek to release 1000 rubbish games a year but they can't release at least one game for each name i mentioned. Nintendo is not as good as it used to be! I mean what is nintendo doing? they promised a bunch of games that aren't out. and why do they bother calling it rayman raving rabbids, RAYMAN hasn't been seen in a game since dreamcast. and rare made some of the best games in the world, and still does. One of Nintendo's worst decisions. Remakes would be perfect ocarina of time the greatest game voted for like 10yrs in a row would be brilliant remade with with more stuff. Then kid gamers of this age would understand what a real game is like.stike22

Most of what you said really doesn't make much sense.

1. Just to clarify things, Nintendo doesn't make Rayman games. It's Ubisoft.
2. They promised games, yes. But quality games take time to create. Especially when they are unique franchises such as Zelda or Mario or Pikmin.
3. Nintendo isn't the one releasing tons of shovelware.
4. Yes, Nintendo giving up Rare wasn't the best move, but it happened and we need to move on.
5. We don't need remakes of old games. Virtual Console? Sure, but not a remake. Afterall, the Virtual Console's purpose IS to bring older games to both the older gamers and the newer gamers.

I know everything you just said but why call raymans raving blood rabbids then? Don't make promises unless you can keep them! Zelda and mario I agree with you. But pikimin is a remake of the first one I know I have it, and it isn't that great. Rare I already have moved on but nintendo doesn't have many good companies going for it at the moment and it started with them letting go of that company! they lost half of their main games because of that. Old games are better then new they just need to be remade I am not talking again and again, just once so I can play a decent game now and then. Haven't bought game for my Wii since Smash Bros. thats almost 6 months!stike22

Again with the Rayman thing, it's UBISOFT. NOT NINTENDO. Link

They've announced Pikmin 3 was in the works, not including the Wii-makes of the first two games.

And I don't think they've ever officially announced another Star Fox game. Do correct me if I'm wrong (and a link to the source), but most of it is fan speculation or theory.

It's true, Nintendo did lose a few franchises exclusive to Rare (i.e. Banjo & Kazooie, Jet Force Gemini, Perfect Dark, etc.), but they didn't lose any of THEIR core franchises.

And look, I have nothing against you and you should have your own opinion about things (i.e. older games), but the only thing I ask is that you back anything up with fact. Like the Rayman thing.

His friend code. :Dcorn_dogs

That would be pretty cool. I'd like to play him in a match of SSBB or Mario Kart.

i would ask him WHERE IS MAH EARTHBOUNDZZZZZZ for ze wii

=3

I would ask him for an interview (about 2 hours for that). If he says yes, this would be my preliminary question list:

-Why does Nintendo lets third party developers cram the Wii's libary with shovelware and poorly developed games?

-Why doesn't your company makes full installments of some of its great franchises (Kirby, a COMPLETE Pokémon videogame, StarFox, F-Zero, Kid Icarus...) for the Wii?

-Why are many of the good Nintendo titles Japan exclusives!?

-Will future Wii consoles include the Wii Motion Plus?

-If the Virtual Console and WiiWare games require so much space, why didn't your company provided a good space cramming solution?

-From where do the major lag problems on Wii online gaming hail, and how would you adress it?

-Why WiiMotes don't have an integrated rechargable battery?

-What's gonna be the approach of your company for the 8th gen?
