RUMOR: Three more upcoming games that have been billed as multiplatform will be going Wii U-exclusiv - Polidicks

[url]http://www.gonintendo.com/s/230929-man-behind-devil-s-third-rumor-teases-3-more-wii-u-exclusives-in-the-works[/url] [quote]Before E3, we discussed a man that was teasing Devil's Third as coming to Wii U. Now that E3 has come and gone, we know that rumor to be true. That makes this guy's rumors a bit more trustworthy than your average internet denizen. With that said, the same guy is now teasing 3 more Wii U exclusives. Seems like they are going to be similar to Devil's Third in a sense that they are original IP that were planned for multiplatform, but are now going to Wii U only. Anyone care to take a guess?[/quote] It's from the same guy who told us that Devil's Third would end up as a Wii U-only title, so this one's leaning towards legit. Three games getting snatched up into a solely Wii U release. I wonder what they are?

call of duty advanced warfare

Halo: The Master Chief Collection

I imagine a megaman legends game in there somewhere

Battlefront 3

Apparently these are all supposed to be new IPs, guys.

Wait why is this getting winners? If it was any other platform it'd be getting dumbed to hell. Just curious.

[QUOTE=Novangel;45098365]Wait why is this getting winners? If it was any other platform it'd be getting dumbed to hell. Just curious.[/QUOTE] I guess people are happy because it might just be the push that the Wii U needs to actually sell more than 10 units per year. On any other platform this kind of shit is just douchy because they are all doing just fine in terms of popularity.

Even if it denies fellow console players the fun of the game, Nintendo is nowhere near where it used to be amongst Sony and Microsoft, and those two will survive based on all of their other products alone.

It's nice to hear the Wii U has the chance of getting some exclusives that are not made by them or SEGA.

This generation is showing that the industry is too focused on graphics and not focused on fun and innovation anymore. Say what you want but I will cheer on Nintendo despite growing up on a Playstation.

Which as far as I have heard is mainly used for minimaps and playing the machine with the TV off. Not exactly groundbreaking innovation, if I'm honest. Unless there's something else amazing they added that I haven't heard about.

I mean the nice thing is that I can play a full fledged console game while laying on my sidein bed. I guess its more of a nice convenience.

How did this thing make it onto the Wii U given Nintendo's "family friendly" attitude. [media]http://www.youtube.com/watch?v=7yTldFe2m-A[/media]

[QUOTE=Jund;45098735]New doesn't mean good New for Nintendo would be putting up a console with specs that challenge Microsoft's and Sony's tbh[/QUOTE] Hell no. The console should stay where it is. It still is an impressive piece of hardware, and though it does not have the GRAFIX XTREEME AA X86 shit - it is genuinely a one of a kind experience of which I have more fun with. I never touch my Xbone or PS4 because it doesn't have genuine fun games but I've been pouring my heart and soul into my WU. Don't get me wrong, there are things that do bug me and the other two exceed in, and they both are the best consoles I have owned, but my Wii U is the funniest hands down.

[QUOTE=Jund;45098735]New doesn't mean good New for Nintendo would be putting up a console with specs that challenge Microsoft's and Sony's tbh[/QUOTE] Not really because the last two times they did that they got their asses handed to them.

As someone who actually doesn't have a problem with exclusives, *gasp* this is great news! Glad to see the Wii U getting the support it both needs and deserves.
