Report: Nintendo to Cease Wii U Productions November 4

With Nintendo finally revealing their Nintendo Switch console, many have speculated when the company would put the ax to their floundering Wii U console.

According to a new report (via Eurogamer), it seems like the tablet-focused console is getting the final nail in the coffin sooner than expected – this Friday to be precise.

“Multiple sources” have confirmed that the company will cease production of the Wii U on November 4th. This coincides with their sources noting that the final deadline for orders on the console was yesterday.

As of September of this year, Nintendo has shipped over 13 million Wii U consoles worldwide, in comparison to the 44 million for PlayStation 4 and 23 million for Xbox One.

Were they still making them? I thought they had enough inventory and production ceased years ago.

No Zelda, no Metroid, an awful Star Fox and censored games up the ass.

Honestly it had the best exclusives this gen.

Bayonetta 2
Xenoblade Chronicles X
Tokyo Mirage
Pikmin 3
Kibry and the Rainbow Curse
Captain Toad
Yoshi’s Woolly World
Mario Kart 8
The Wonderful 101
Splatoon

Sucks it got gimped on the multiplatform titles by publishers/devs.

Still PC+Wii U was the way to go if you wanted the best exclusives and the multiplats that the Wii U never got.

Before the WiiU was announced I wanted the next Nintendo console to be good (in spite of great sales I think Wii was a bad system).
Then they announced WiiU and the first thought I had was the name was really bad. They should have abandoned the Wii name right away.
When I first saw the announcement video I thought it was better system than the Wii, I remember one guy throwing shurikens through the tablet control and it looked cool.
Then finally it was released, it had a really small hard drive, it had that shitty account system tied to the console and the tablet gimmick made the system expensive, also I read you could use only one tablet per system. I think ZombiU was the only game that looked like it used the tablet screen in a funny way. In the end the pro controller should have been the real controller and the tablet should have been optional.
All those factors prevented me from buying a WiiU at launch, but I remember ZombieU looked interesting.
Then the Nintendo games were a new suprr mario that looked just like the one on the wii and nds even with the grab three coi ns system, a new mario kart but I didn’t even played mario kart on Wii that much, I don’t like smash so no smash and 3dworld that looked really cool, the toad game looked to expensive in relation to what it was. Then as third party exclusives I didn’t like bayonetta on ps3 so B2 was not interesting to me and xenoblade looked really cool.
The WiiU kept being expensive and most multiplat games didn’t make it to the system, it was pretty clear the system was dead when xbone announced it had more sales even after it was released a year later.
Then they announced they were working on NX, so I found no reason to buy an expensive dead system with bad account system for 3dw and xenoblade.
More than a year later WiiU ceases production and the situation is the same as 2 or 3 years ago, no reason to buy WiiU

So them stating multiple times that the switch (nx) wouldn’t be a replacement for the wiiu was sort of a lie then right?

I’m doubting the switch will be a substantial upgrade in hardware over the wiiu if your just planning to use it like a home console. Going to be a hard sell.

Not surprised. Haven’t seen a new Wii U release since Pokken Tournament. Pretty much figured Nintendo was trying to kill it at that point.

Japanese dev never asked for the PS4, it was the western dev mostly. The Japanese dev lately found how to code on PS3 due to “the power of the cell” which makes game development painful

Most of these games are released on PS4 too due the easiness to port it between the different Sony’s consoles. And in addition there 10 millions of PS3 and only 3 millions of PS4 in Japan.

I doubt there will be a Bayonetta 3. It sold less than Bayonetta 1 and that game only sold a mill on the PS3 and 360. Unless Nintendo wants to try another failed move in getting the gamers they shoved away during the Wii’s run back, we won’t see another one. Nintendo should terminate or sell the exclusivity deal to bring it multiplatform and let Platinum games make money off of those sales.

I’m surprised that they didn’t shut down hardware production sooner considering how they’ve handled software support for the Wii U in 2016.

Star Fox Zero and Paper Mario Color Splash were promising titles marred by awkward gameplay elements. Tokyo Mirage Sessions #FE has fringe of the fringe appeal. It’s abundantly clear that Breath of the Wild was delayed to launch on the NX… I remember how frustrated I was during the Wii U’s first software drought when Ubisoft and Square Enix delayed completed games that had been started as Wii U exclusives so that they could be launched on other platforms simultaneously. Only a few years later Nintendo is doing the exact same thing to their own customers. To be clear, I don’t care that Breath of the Wild, Rayman Legends, or Dues Ex Human Revolutions Director’s Cut were ported to other systems but I do mind that they were delayed unnecessarily during software droughts. If a game is finished, release it…the port can come later. This is the most dissatisfied that I’ve ever been with a Nintendo console…and it’s not the Wii U itself, it’s how Nintendo has supported it… The Wii U is – I guess we can say was – a console with a tremendous amount of potential that Nintendo almost completely failed to realize. Nintendo’s best games on the system barely used the second screen in the gamepad – at which point they should have cut out the gamepad and just called it Wii HD.

Nintendo didn’t really put out much that really showcased what it could do aside from Nintendoland and Mario Maker. There are a couple of non-Nintendo titles that did some interesting things with it; namely Affordable Space Adventures, ZomibU’s multiplayer, and Wonderful 101. I’m also hoping that Hex Heroes is still released on the Wii U despite it being basically abandoned by Nintendo.

CEMU is getting there extremely fast, soon you won’t even need to think about the console to play either version of the game.

https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=0Yry7_Ut7Zg

Right now the game doesn’t render the prologue area properly, so it’s unplayable, but it works at a decent framerate. With all the games opening and working out of the box, it’s just a matter of time though.

I kinda want to own a WiiU just because it’s going away but playing Splatoon on this thing the past few weeks is rapidly erasing all motives to buy even a used one.

Based off that the Wii U was coming off the juggernaut of the Wii and didn’t manage to hardly any ground due to that makes a it a bigger flop than the 32X. I think it’s more comparable to the Saturn which suffered greatly from third party support, Sega’s studios struggling to get games out that they desperately needed like Sonic Xtreme, hardware that was a pain to work and not comparable to it’s competition and Sony beating them to a pulp on the market level, the Wii U suffered from all of those as well.

If you include games they also publish, there is quite a bit to pull from. A great example is Alien Isolation.

Nintendo has more popular 1st party titles than SEGA did. Mario, Zelda, Metroid…ect these will pretty much do well on any system they can pop up on. Nintendo can continue to publish 3rd party titles as well, just not in the capacity of their own designed hardware (exclusivity).

In Grayares defense, even if they are technically not console exclusives but playstation exclusives it helps his case against WiiU.

For example Persona 5 will be on PS3 and PS4, how is this good for Xbone and WiiU? “lol it’s not PS4 exclusive, WiiU has better exclusives”
In the end PS4 users will be playing Persona 5 while competing platform users won’t be.

Eh xbx was OK, the original Xenoblade was really good though. Xbx suffered a weaker story and then there was the weird censorship, while not ruining the game certainly stifled some of the enjoyment. Overdrive was weaker than than the previous battle system and the lack of a topple mechanic was a little lame. Though some of that is probably from having a character creator which prevented specialized moves tuned to the character. The producer himself did state most of the budget was focused on developing the open world since they’d never done it before, that aside the environments were beautiful and the soundtrack pretty amazing. I wish they hadn’t taken out the slider which kind of stifled my hype and enjoyment a bit. (I didn’t want to support NoA, but I love the xeno series and had been hyped for it a year in advance)

Since the Wii’success Nintendo must find a new revolutionary concept of gameplay if they hope to sell a home console.

In case of failure they have just to switch the PR tactics, release a portable version of the console and pretend the console was always a handheld.

Calling it Censorblade is ridiculous. The game has tons of bikinis and the bunny outfits are skimpy as hell, you can even see the butt crack.

The breast slider is slightly unfortunate but after putting hundreds of hours into XCX I couldn’t care less honestly. Boobs are nice and all but the world and battle system and music and especially the mechs are way cooler than any boobs could ever be.

It’s not like the female avatar character is totally flat chested, anyhow, she looks fine and dare I say it, attractive. What you’d expect an athletic person to look like who runs back and fourth across an entire planet.

I think the Wii U’s failure speaks more to the failure of Nintendo home consoles in general since the SNES. As far as I’m concerned, the Wii U is far superior to the Wii (shovelware bowling system) and Nintendo 64 (foggy character platformer system). Wii U is about equal to the Gamecube, with better games overall even though Gamecube still has one of the greatest analog sticks of all time. Only the NES and SNES are actually better systems with a superior game catalog.

In other words, the Wii U is just another symptom of the same disease that has afflicted Nintendo for over 20 years now.

I doubt the Switch will be the cure.

All that said, I have gotten far more than my money’s worth out of my Wii U in Xenoblade X alone. One of my top 5 games of all time and I’m still playing it.

Nintendo has said over and over again the Switch IS NOT a replacement for the 3DS.

The Switch isn’t a portable system, it’s a hybrid system, with it’s own games. It’s essentially what the Wii U wanted to be with that dumb pad thing, but actually good.

But again, it’s not a replacement. They said it, don’t believe me? Google is your friend.

If Nintendo doesn’t abandon 3DS then it has at least 4 more years of life but this is not the first time they talked about a “Third Pillar”.

Shit, you’re right. Completely forgot about the N64, I guess the SNES with Super Metroid and the Gamecube with Metroid Prime 1&2 shone bright enough to make me forget that dark spot.

Also yeah, but that’s a shitty spin-off at best. If you count that you might as well count Hyrule Warriors.

I only just now realized this was an Emily Rogers rumor.

She really is losing relevancy if she has to keep piggybacking off of Eurogamer and SJW fuck ups like Laura Kate Dale.

Just like back in March?

These stories have been circulating for YEARS, and yet people still fall for them.

just like when they said the new 3ds didnt exist, the ds wont replace gba, the “we wont do games for mobile”, the “we wont do dlcs”, the “we will announce NX early 2016”, the “we won’t do gacha”, the “we wont sell MIi’s clothes and such as DLC”, the “we will not sell unfinished games”, the x the y and the z.

you want more?

I see, I’ve got no problem with that as long as it is done well (not just the visuals but the supporting story and so on). We could definitely use some more stand-out artstyles (Gakuen Handsome seems to be the main one) but it is the opposite side of the cute girl spectrum and people will buy what they want and make what they want.

Capcom’s recent Palm game doesn’t dip outside of the norms on paper but it looks fantastic if that counts for anything: http://www.capcom.co.jp/palm

You’re right. Its not a complete halt in productions, but Nintendo is going to end production of the WII U in Japan very soon.
