Those of you who had a SNES in it's time...

Do you find the WiiU appealing?

Are you still interested in Nintendo or have you moved to other systems?

Is there anything they could do to get you interested again?

Do you think Nintendo still caters to you?

I hope we get some sincere answers from those who had the system when it was in it's prime. ;)

only the 3ds appeals to me

What the hell does owning a 23 year old system have to do with the wiiu?

WiiU? What's THAT? :shock:

I never had one, but my friends did. So, here I go:

1. Yes
2. Yes
3. N/A
4. Not as much anymore... Though, there are still games, that I  absolutely  want to play.

you're almost cow level nameless.. keep at it. you'll get there..lol

I have a SNES and I'm barely interested in the Wii U, not worth it until 2014 to me.

Dreamcast is much more interesting than Wii-U currently.

That's not possible because I never actually owned a PlayStation system. ;) (had Ataris, Segas, Nintendos, Xboxes but not a PlayStation)

I do like some Sony games tho...

No. The SNES was awesome, N64 had some great, classic games (still regard Ocarina of Time as one of the best games ever made), Gamecube was fun, but I only bought a Nintendo system again with the Wii. And it was a great disapointment.

Played a lot in the first year, with my gf and friends, but for the core gaming I always ended using the PS3 (or PC for some titles like Star Craft 2, Civ 5, some Total War games, etc). I can't comment on the handheld market because I never bought that kind of system.

I would only buy a Nintendo system again if they managed to get the 3rd party devs to support them again. Maybe that was the strenght of the SNES, like it was with the PS1-2-3 and Xbox 360.

I had an SNES when it was new and I still have that SNES and I purchased a Wii U at launch.

My sister is getting a Wii U just because Donkey Kong Country: Tropical Freeze, Super Mario 3D World, and Mario Kart 8.

Donkey Kong Country was her favorite game on the SNES so she can't wait to play Tropical Freeze.

SNES = great system with great games

WiiU = not so much

Never noticed....

- The U missed the mark by a mile

- Not at this point, they haven't brough back any games that I really want, and won't for too long

- Nothing short of several amazing releases of old and new IP's, new IP's in particular

- No, they cater to a much different demographic than the average 34 year old

I loved my SNES, but Nintendo products just dont appeal to me right now aside from X (A game that Nintendo doesnt care about).

Grow up?

TC is doing what exactly Nintendo is doing for a long time, hitting home with the nostaliga for easy sale.

Nope, Wii U seems like a product without direction. They should have made a more powerful box with a wiimote, nunchuck and controller pro included, basically an evolution of the Wii, and focus on making games, not controllers. Make the 3DS act as a screen and controller, the GBA did that in some games.

SNES was that, a powerful console with great games to back it up, no pretense about it.

The handhelds are where the old school Nintendo has shined through, because of their constant output of games, and innovations that are in my opinion worth it like touch and 3D. The 3DS seems like the closest thing to a SNES now.

Nintendo cares about it if they didn't they wouldn't announce it and confirm that it is going to release in North America.

Do you find the WiiU appealing? Yes, I love SMBU and am playing Earthbound for the first time.

Are you still interested in Nintendo or have you moved to other systems? Yes.

Is there anything they could do to get you interested again?

Do you think Nintendo still caters to you? Yes.

Most of the Five year old sheep have no clue how awesome snes and nintendo once were. 

Do you find the WiiU appealing? No.

Are you still interested in Nintendo or have you moved to other systems? Moved on with the PS1.  I owned a N64 too but it only got used for Goldeneye and Zelda.

Is there anything they could do to get you interested again? At this point Ninty would have to release an ultra-graphic A-rated snuff film simulator exclusive to catch my attention.

Do you think Nintendo still caters to you? They cater to nostalgics, casuals, and children.

Nintendo...........I grew up with you. I still remember unboxing my NES in the 80's.  I scoured every issue of Nintendo Power like it was my own personal bible.

Thou hast forsaken me.

Lol, nameless12345 thread. 

I've been a gamer far before the SNES even, and I own a Wii U. Yes, I'm still interested in what Nintendo has to offer, mayhaps not as much. I think the Wii U is a terrific gaming console, just lacking in software atm. Played a bit of ZombiU today... havent been so tense playing a game in a very long time, last time I was so tense playing a game was RE2.

I think the Wii U will end up being a repeat of the N64... not selling overly well, but will have some of the best, most memorable games that people will cherish for a long time to come.

I still have my SNES after all this time and have every Nintendo console since.  It's what I grew up playing.  I still enjoy their games alot, but I'd say my enthusiasm for them waned a bit in recent years and most of what I play is not Nintendo.  I remember when SM64 came out - I was really excited for it and it made me want a N64 right away.  I was less excited about the GC but I still wound up getting it for the likes of Smash Bros. Melee and Metroid Prime.  With the Wii I played the Wii titles a bit but most of what I played was traditional Nintendo franchises...Mario, etc.  

Now I kind of feel like deja vu with alot of what they put out - that I've already played it and now I'm playing it again.  Its kind of hard to justify the Wii U for me to play what feels like the same games all over again - and the new Wii titles I only really care for in short sessions when I'm playing with someone else, and that's it.  So yeah, I'd like to see Nintendo put out some new IPs that are more along the lines of their more traditional stuff, but manages to be something new too - if that makes sense.  I mean Mario Kart 8 looks nice and all, but I'm more interested in X at this point than anything else Nintendo has coming.  I just kind of wish they'd try a little harder to put out somethign special for their long time fans...instead it still feels like they peaked a decade or so and now it's the same stuff.  Somethign like a open world 3d Pokemon RPG on Wii U would really get me interested and I know a ton people would go for that.  It seems like it should be so easy, but it just hasn't happened.   

the only thing interesting about the wii u is X and maybe bayonetta 2....i havent been really that interested with mario/zelda games
