Npoess Posted June 7, 2011 Share Posted June 7, 2011 Kind of looks like a mini version of the old white Xbox 360? I might have overheard it, but does the Wii U support HD, and will it be as powerful as the 360 & PS3 as it was rumored to be? Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

kaen Posted June 7, 2011 Share Posted June 7, 2011 i dont even own a current gen console, i own retro stuff and a pc, im still waiting for someone to bring me a package and list of games that im interested in, also add a fucking keyboard to a console and ill be sold, i dont like having to upgrade my pc every year just to play the best games that 1 console can play over many years. fucking tards Ya just need an old PC + emulator + logitech gamepad + TV out, and you're done forever! i can do that now, its fine for old stuff sure but i still want to be able to play current and next gen games on a console with a keyboard and mouse setup. that way i just have to buy a console and it will keep me in good stead for many years instead of constantly upgrading an expensive pc unit.

Joyrex Posted June 7, 2011 Share Posted June 7, 2011 wii u is the name of the new console? Suddenly "Project Cafe" sounds pretty good I figured out what it means... Wii U(pgrade) (contrary to what Nintendo says it means) i dont even own a current gen console, i own retro stuff and a pc, im still waiting for someone to bring me a package and list of games that im interested in, also add a fucking keyboard to a console and ill be sold, i dont like having to upgrade my pc every year just to play the best games that 1 console can play over many years. fucking tards Ya just need an old PC + emulator + logitech gamepad + TV out, and you're done forever! i can do that now, its fine for old stuff sure but i still want to be able to play current and next gen games on a console with a keyboard and mouse setup. that way i just have to buy a console and it will keep me in good stead for many years instead of constantly upgrading an expensive pc unit. The PS3 supports any USB keyboard. Sony even has a wireless bluetooth one coming out later this year, with a IBM ThinkPad style nub in the centre for mouse navigation in the web browser that's built into the PS3. Your frustration is the main reason I don't game on a PC - too much of a hassle, and too expensive - most graphics cards cost almost as much (in some cases more) than a console, and most people need to replace their graphics cards every 2-3 years to keep on the bleeding edge.

You can do what I do and just completely ignore every FPS on a console. Just play games that are built with the console's controller in mind. not this again.

You can do what I do and just completely ignore every FPS on a console. Just play games that are built with the console's controller in mind. too true. while, arguably, the PC excels with FPS games and indie stuff, the consoles will always be the best choice for other types of games. Obel mentioned it in the other game thread when i lamented the lack of MK9 for PC...he mentioned how the controls are shit. on a PC, using the keyboard for a beat 'em up? yeah, it's totally shit. consoles blaze through with other stuff.

oscillik Posted June 7, 2011 Share Posted June 7, 2011 How did this turn into a controller vs. mouse discussion? i think what should be pertinent here is: why are people not complaining about the size and heft of the Wii U controller, when everyone was kicking off about the Atari Jaguar controller? consistency, none applies.

encey Posted June 7, 2011 Share Posted June 7, 2011 The 'U' makes sense to me -- it represents the gaming connection from the screen to the controller and back. Yeah. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

I think the real problem is that the PC gets almost no support. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

I quite like the look of that new Wii console's controller, and I can't even explain why. I'll probably change my mind once I hold it, but right now I'm kind of impressed.

A mouse isn't natural for an fps either: you are wrong, in my experience at least. WASD + mouse is imo the most natural interface for an FPS i'd ever used. you can't look up or down in doom ffs.
