Wii U / Nintendo general news and discussion

Yeah I was just about to say, this is just Nintendo giving people an option.
As far as I know Sony or Microsoft don't give the option to use Dualshock 3/360 controller on their new machines, let alone controllers from 2 generations ago. Would be great if we could then use a Dualshock 3 as second controller on PS4.
And that wasn't meant as a dig at Sony or MS. Just pointing out that the more controller options there are, the more money Nintendo save their customers who already have controllers from previous gens.
Now when can we use our NES controllers or hook up our Game&Watch?

You called?
Here you go linky dink, an adapter that will let you use your NES or SNES controllers on your Wii, in Pro controller mode, and hence on your WiiU as well!
Mad but there you go!0 -

Concave > Convex for sticks imo.
Yeah I use the original PS1 analog pad a lot and there's something I find more comfortable about concave ones.
I didn't have an n64 or Gamecube on release, but whenever I played my friends ones, I always found my thumb slipping off more than it should have.0 -

Convex all the way for me, but I appreciate that some people are wrong have different tastes. :P0 -

I actually think there's more justification for re-releasing a game at full price when it's still considered a relatively 'premium' title. I have no intention of buying it whatsoever having played the original, but then for people who never played it before it's not a bad deal at all for a definitely improved version of a great game - and it's ridiculous these days to pay 70 euro for any title when they're all available significantly cheaper with a bare minimum of shopping around
Frankly, I find Nintendo's method of re-releases a bit cheeky - paying full retail price for a fifteen year old game doesn't at all appeal to me, especially since other companies have released strong remakes digitally at a much more attractive initial price point (see the Team Ico ones or the MGS re-releases, or indeed many PC efforts). I'm not going to buy Last of Us PS4, but then I didn't buy Ocarina of Time 3DS either.But pay for it for all you want but forgive me for reading stupid comments on this thread from people who think their business men near their laptops and desktops.
I'd strongly disagree with the claims that a GC controller adapter is some sort of reprehensible indicator of complete creative or commercial bankruptcy or collapse - more a nice little niche product that I happily welcome. But your rebuttal argument was just as silly, which I think you admit yourself 0 -

It was basically the point I was trying to make , I would not of bought the likes of oot , wind waker or other nintendo remakes if I had play them before . The response was suppose to be silly to tackle the other silly comment since this thread is 90% nonsense.
I could care less about the brand or the plastic box at the end of day and the games soley matter 0
