Well when I woke up today I was really wanting Nintendo to be able to sell me on buying the Wii U when it comes out. After watching their press conference though they actually pushed me away from wanting to buy one and its got nothing to do with the controller either as I actually think it will be a really cool thing in the end. What disappointed me was the lack of software shown that I would find interesting. My thoughts and opinions from what they showed at their conference.
Pikmin 3 - I know there are people out there that like this series but I've never been a fan of it personally. Its just not my kinda game.
NSMB U - Meh another 2D Mario game. I'm sure it will be fun I guess but I was really hoping to see a new 3D Mario game.
Multiplatform games - Its great that they are getting some of the Xbox360/PS3 multiplat games but I already own those consoles so I'm not gonna buy a new console to play those games, some of which that were shown I've already played.
Nintendo 3DS stuff - I'm not a fan of handheld gaming so this stuff is just a bore for me personally.
Wii U Fit - LOL no thanks!
Just Dance 4 - Same as above.
ZombiU - Ahh now this I thought looked interesting after they showed the trailer but then later I saw some gameplay and it looked just meh. This could change as we learn more about it but for now its just meh.
NintendoLand - Ahh the Wii Sports of the Wii U. Thats fine I guess and I might play it a little if its the pack in game that comes with the system but from what they said to me it sounds like its gonna be a stand-alone game at launch that you have to buy separately. If thats the case LOL no thanks!
That covers everything I could remember. Nintendo had a really good chance to sell the Wii U to me and I'm sure others but they didn't. Where was the game Retro is working on? There were rumors of new F-Zero and Star Fox games, was that not true? I would have loved to learn more about the Wii U's UI and what its online system is going to be like. What about a launch date and price? Nope we didn't get any of those things. I dunno maybe I was expecting too much from Nintendo today. Anyway for now unless things change -and I really hope that they do- I will not be looking to buy a Wii U.
