5 Wii U Issues You May Have not Considered

gamrfeed.vgchartz.com/story/87161/five-wii-u-issues-that-you-have-not-considered/

2, 3, and 5 are dealbreakers for me.

i'm not quite ready to jump on the wiiu hate bandwagon yet, i need to play a few games on it first before slagging it.

Only number five is a big deal for me; an internal harddrive should be mandatory. Number one seems more like a minor annoyance. Two through four won't impact/bother me.

Well, I won't buying a WiiU anyway but some of these are problems that should have been addressed.

Only number 5 is worth considering the rest are just stupid.

1. I don't care. I only use rechargable AAs now anyway

2. Another don't care. I'm 19.

3. Gamecube controller sucked and Wavebird was only good cause it was the best wireless last gen. CC Pro is much, much better. If it's that big of a deal, they have GC-style classic controllers.

4. Again, doesn't bother me. It's not gonna leave my room.

5. I'd rather have external. That way I can take my stuff with me.

not even considering to buy a wii u until smash bros is annonuced

i mean like a date...i thought they said they dont even have the team ready...i remember the thread

That is the dumbest article I have seen lol. Wow, I expected much better points.

The only one that wasn't idiotic on that list was five.

What can I expect though? It's VGcharts after all.

That is one of the worst lists i have ever read. It's like that incompetent writter tried to hard to find bad things to write about a, currently, console that we know to little about, and failed.

This is the most ridiculous thing I've ever heard. Not only that but any of those things could change from now until launch... we've heard like nothing solid on anything about it.

pretty much 90% of the problems every console comes with unless you got awesome parents

That was a horrible article. Maybe parents should teach there kids sharing before they get them a console anyways.

You do know they still aren't set with how many tablet controllers they're going to allow right?

HDD's are so cheap, they really should be built into many of these systems anyway. The 360 kinect bundle with a 4GB flash drive is 300 dollars, whereas a 360 kinect bundle with a 250 gb hard drive is 400 dollars. That's pretty ridiculous. Basically, you just paid MS 100 extra dollars for 250 GB's of space, something I can easily purchase on an external or internal hard drive for around 25 dollars. There really is no reason as to why these companies should charge these exorbitant prices anymore, but people buy it unfortunately. The non-rechargeable controller is pretty stupid too...DragonfireXZ95

Pretty bad when I can buy an external USB 3.0 1TBHDD for 80-100 bucks, or a 2TB external powered HDD for the same price. That's why I'm happy with this route Nintendo is taking.

the more i hear about this system, the more i think its a piece of garbage.

go back to the n64 days ninty, you have been sucking for the past 2

People complain about it not having a hard drive, but then turn around and complain about the high cost of consoles, that's very hypocritical. You can't have your cake and eat it too.

was that a joke article? :lol:

only real complaint was the harddrive.

You do know this ruins split screen gaming yes? ALso, the system supports 2 max, which still isnt the required 4.slarkyslark

The last report was they aren't sure how many it'll support. We know it can support four, the AMD press-release about the GPU listed it in it's specs.

I'm hoping they decide for 4, because I want these for split-screen gaming. I mostly play online though since all my friends now have PCs now, so it's not that big of a "want" for me.

Only thing I dislike is the harddrive...other than that, completely useless article.

Hell, don't even include a HD. But leave a spot open so the consumer can buy their own and put it in the console. Everyone happy.

HDD was bad for consoles. Think, what did it give us? Unfinished games that they patch up later and DLC.

AA batteries aren't that bad, I'm 18, and I don't remember nintendo saying it wouldn't have a hardrive.

[QUOTE="Bigboi500"]

[QUOTE="slarkyslark"] not sure if serious. A hard drive wouldnt cost them much at all.....Chutebox

Why put it in the console? Why not just use an external so you can take everything with you?

[QUOTE="Chutebox"]

[QUOTE="Bigboi500"]Are you kidding? The way things are going, it would need a 500GB to a 1TB hard drive and would probably raise the cost by around $100 or more. That much extra money could be a deal-breaker for a lot of people.

Well, if the Wii U will be using flash memory I hope it has at least 20gb.

It'd be great if it supported external hardrives.

[QUOTE="ChubbyGuy40"]

[QUOTE="Chutebox"] It would need no where near a 500GB HD.

Yeah it was already confirmed.

That's great news! :)

What a pathetic list.

1. They will release rechargable batteries for sure.
2. 18yo here.
3. Hope they release other controllers but I haven't tried CC Pro.
4. 18yo here.

All of those are pretty much non-issues, except for the hard drive thing. They were standard on the xbox in 2001, yet somehow they still aren't going to be standard in all consoles over 10 years later

Hate all those respawning enemies in farcry2? This is reason why they exist.

Number five is the only legitimate complaint.

even i can come up with better points. And thats saying alot, cuz i like the WiiU.

This article is just stupid

It has 8GB internal flash memory (Same as the 360...slim,) SDHC slots (Something the 360 never had on either of its 3 revisions,) and external HDD support.

This is FAR better this way. Now I don't have to pay 100 extra bucks only to get stupidly small HDDs. Now, I get to use a 1TB USB 3.0 external for that same price which is much faster.

Where is the original article that says all this? Not that I don't believe you :P I'd just like to read it.

The 360 slim has 4gb of flash memory though.

.... Three of those five reasons basically amount to "There is only one Wii U controller and that sucks."

After looking at the link i was almost tempted to think it was a joke.

None of those really bother me at all..

But... idk. I just dnt seeit being something to get upset about
