Ep. 94 - Nintendo Wii-U (ft. Chris and Jared)

DISCLAIMER: I apologize for the intermittent weird audio on Aaron's end. There wasn't really a good way of fixing it without re-recording certain parts of my audio.

Pour one out for the little Nintendo that could. This week, Aaron is joined by Chris of “A Novel Console” and Jared of “Play Along Podcast” as they talk about how great the Wii-U was. Even if you’re a Wii-U hater, I recommend listening to this episode.

[00:04:04] That's true. That's true. Now. I was like, let's yeah, let's get Jared on

[00:04:09] I think it was was it your idea to talk about the Wii U? Yeah

[00:04:12] Yeah, I was down. I'm a Wii you stand over here and hey look there's no stand. There's no good Pokemon on here

[00:04:22] That's true. Pokens great. Oh, yeah, there was poke in tournament that is a good one. Okay, okay

[00:04:27] I'm gonna bite my nails apart real fast

[00:04:30] There we go terrible habit as you all have heard we're gonna talk about the Wii U

[00:04:35] But we'll do that here just a little bit. We're gonna get to the discord Q&A

[00:04:41] Before we get to that too where we're gonna take a short breather and jam to some tunes and that will be we'll be right back

[00:04:48] And now we're back. Hey, we're doing the discord Q&A now. We're back

[00:05:06] Hey, I'm gonna start us off the first one. I guess I asked the discord server

[00:05:11] What are your favorite memories?

[00:05:13] Features games or anything else with the Wii U to which no man retro wildlands. He says never had a Wii U

[00:05:20] I heard it sucked does it suck asking for a friend who might be me? I'm the friend

[00:05:27] That's I'm sorry. No, man. It's minutes. I think it's cool. It's a cool console

[00:05:33] Yeah, yeah, it's very cool console. Yeah, I love the little thing

[00:05:37] Anubis hero said

[00:05:40] The Wii U was the thing I remember the Wii and then switch to be honest

[00:05:44] Yeah, sometimes I fall into that that kind of headspace

[00:05:48] And I have to force myself to remember that you exist even though I love the Wii U

[00:05:53] arguably more than the switch

[00:05:56] Really? That's crazy

[00:05:59] It is a weird like blind spot, right? It was in production for like maybe five years and like we said sold like 13

[00:06:07] Million which is which is why? Yeah

[00:06:10] Free listeners the the Saturn the Sega Saturn only sold nine and a half million

[00:06:16] Which like really person puts into perspective like how?

[00:06:21] Shitily the Wii U sold

[00:06:24] But we'll get to that. We'll get to that in a little bit. Yeah, Cthusias Jeff says

[00:06:29] Never had or played the Wii U another product of poor marketing. He's he's not wrong

[00:06:35] Honestly, I can't recall any Wii U commercials

[00:06:38] I think that the name just sank it

[00:06:41] You know the one where they threw the ninja stars at the at the bamboo

[00:06:45] No, no, sir

[00:06:48] Recall quite a few Wii commercials

[00:06:52] Specifically the one where they went to like everybody's house and sat down and play a weed with them

[00:06:56] Well, they're like they we would like to play and they like bowed at your front door

[00:06:59] And it was like that's G. That's perfect marketing right there

[00:07:03] Go hobo go. He says

[00:07:06] Early in my relationship with my wife. We played some Wii U games and had a lot of laughs

[00:07:10] That's a great memory that is man. Hell. Yeah, thank your wife's a keeper if she still loves the Wii U

[00:07:17] She's a keeper

[00:07:21] Kevin demo Mario maker was one of my all-time most hyped games

[00:07:25] I was so stoked for that

[00:07:27] I had repeatedly poured over every video I could find ahead of its release and I remember I

[00:07:32] Remember best buy had an in-store demo before lunch

[00:07:35] I went up and started playing it and employee was watching he commented how I looked like I knew what I was doing

[00:07:42] Already and I was very much like oh fuck. Yeah, I know what

[00:07:49] It's just like it's just like 2d Mario right it's not extremely complicated

[00:07:54] I like how the best buy employee

[00:07:57] Knew like fucking nothing about the Wii U

[00:08:01] Everything about like every game. I don't know like whoa this guy's crazy

[00:08:07] You can work technology

[00:08:13] I

[00:08:17] Remember this though

[00:08:18] I got Mario maker at lunch and I remember being very excited

[00:08:21] I had like a poster that was like 25th anniversary of Mario and it had like all the games on the poster

[00:08:25] It was really cool. That is really fucking cool

[00:08:28] I'm still really surprised they haven't done another maker type game for like like yeah, maybe Zelda

[00:08:34] Yeah, I guess like Zelda kind of got that in the

[00:08:38] Links awakening yeah the links awakening remake. I heard it was pretty bare bones though

[00:08:42] Yeah, it was it was like chunks from

[00:08:46] Pretty much all the dungeons you had experience up to that point and you can like put them together

[00:08:51] So you would get like a water dungeon

[00:08:54] Room right next like a fire dungeon room or like a sand dungeon so it would be

[00:08:59] Yeah, very visually weird

[00:09:01] But I remember in in pure Nintendo fashion that it was like it was a hoops

[00:09:07] You had to jump through to try to like share those with friends. Oh through the amiibo

[00:09:12] Yep, you need exactly there you go. It was to the amiibo amiibo

[00:09:16] Yeah, that was that was not great

[00:09:18] Wild wild

[00:09:20] Judge bread I talked about on the podcast before but people forgot the hype the Wii U had on release as the follow-up of the uber successful

[00:09:28] We I remember I college class one of one guy got the Wii U on launch day

[00:09:32] And we all huddled around him to hear what he thought of it

[00:09:35] And he said it was a ton of potential of unique gameplay experiences and then well

[00:09:40] We all know what happened with the Wii U after that

[00:09:42] Yeah

[00:09:46] That because whenever least they kind of like hit that same level where the ps3 and Xbox 360 we're at

[00:09:53] Yeah, and it just got a bunch of ports over from those consoles and then it kind of just well

[00:09:59] Were you not playing black ops 2 on we I mean come on. That's where everybody was right

[00:10:05] Get the UAV on your hands

[00:10:07] Oh

[00:10:10] Jam he says I remember watching let's plays of people using the Wii U for the first time

[00:10:15] I'm feeling it was a similar sentiment to what at Judge bread. I specifically remember this log zombie game where the gamepad

[00:10:22] Was for like maps or something the idea of it of it being the she could sleep breath of the wild sound sick though

[00:10:28] Yeah, yeah that does remember the zombie game

[00:10:31] It was zombie you which started on there and ended being ported

[00:10:34] But that was a cool game because multiplayer the person controlling the gamepad would essentially like

[00:10:39] Create and summon waves of zombies and then someone else can be on a controller being in the first person

[00:10:44] But having to fight off this hordes of zombies and everything it was actually really cool

[00:10:48] That sounds really fucking cool. I just smacked the mic with my hand. He was so excited

[00:10:53] There's a lot of there's a lot of games that I want to talk about but I'm gonna save them for like the actual

[00:10:59] Meat and potatoes of the episode. Let's say for the Q&A. We'll take another short break and we'll get back to it

[00:11:19] Hi, we're back. It's me

[00:11:24] So yeah, well, I guess we'll start with a little bit of a

[00:11:30] I was like you can't see on screen by like my mute button I was like panicking trying to get over to it

[00:11:38] I'm good. Oh

[00:11:40] so the

[00:11:43] Wii U

[00:11:44] was launched November

[00:11:47] 2012 in North America and Pal in Japan December of 2012 as a successor to the Wii is

[00:11:55] The in the eighth generation of consoles, which was the same generation as the Xbox one and ps4

[00:12:01] And it's it's wild to think because it definitely wasn't as powerful as them

[00:12:07] But like it still did a lot of really cool shit

[00:12:10] Let's see discontinued January 2017. Holy cow months before the switch was kind of wild

[00:12:18] God damn

[00:12:19] Total units sold 13 point fifty six million as of December 2019

[00:12:26] and

[00:12:27] That's

[00:12:29] That's pretty much it. That's a backstory man. It's uh, I

[00:12:34] Think out of the box it came with like just the Wii U console

[00:12:38] Of course the core it's with like the external power supply and then the gamepad

[00:12:43] Which is what really set this motherfucker apart from like any other console that came are you good?

[00:12:48] Are you grabbing your gamepad? Hell yeah, hold on nice

[00:12:52] Break out that gamepad Chris. It's really weird like this like this legit feels like an in-between

[00:13:02] Between like the switch right like this like legit feels like a prototype that would eventually become the switch

[00:13:07] Yeah, I know I

[00:13:09] Back in the day. I lived in this one house in

[00:13:13] In

[00:13:15] I almost said a little town but like a big town called Sioux City, Iowa

[00:13:18] I lived with some friends and this in this little house and

[00:13:22] One of my roommates had a Wii U and he would just like play games like on just the gamepad instead of playing it on the TV

[00:13:30] Which was just fucking insane at the time because he would be playing

[00:13:34] Oh

[00:13:36] What the fuck was it?

[00:13:37] He was playing Wind Waker on there just like on the game pad. I was like that's fucking

[00:13:42] Sweet as shit then he would get a couple of virtual console games to I think like Mario may or

[00:13:49] Mario Bros 3 and

[00:13:51] Something else I forget but I mean that was arguably the best part of that console, right?

[00:13:55] Like the virtual console library on the Wii U was great. Like you had so many like the retro

[00:14:02] Availability for that was insane. It's sad now that it doesn't exist anymore

[00:14:06] But for the longest time that's where a lot of people play retro games was or at least Nintendo ones was through the Wii U virtual console

[00:14:12] Right and they covered a bunch of different consoles. It had you know at the NES

[00:14:17] SNES 64 DS Gameboy Advance

[00:14:21] Insane that you could play a DS game on your TV and

[00:14:25] It was very well, but it was I mean

[00:14:27] And like the thing is it wasn't just like first party Nintendo games you also had really good third parties like you had

[00:14:35] The Sega Gameboy Advance Castlevania games

[00:14:38] Yep

[00:14:40] You had yeah, you had you also had Sega Master System. Yeah PC engine slash Turbo graphics

[00:14:45] You had Neo Geo games on there Commodore 64

[00:14:50] MSX that's

[00:14:53] It's fucking nuts dude. It had

[00:14:56] Wonder if it tells me how many games had for each one. It does not but that's that's fucking insane

[00:15:01] I remember

[00:15:03] After it was discontinued. I hunted down a console or I hunted down like a Wii U of my own

[00:15:09] I bought one at a convention here and here in Des Moines

[00:15:12] And there was I don't know if anybody knows this the YouTube channel gaming off the grid

[00:15:18] They're they're based in in Des Moines. I went to a convention

[00:15:21] I saw them. I met them and I bought a Wii U off of them and I was like dude

[00:15:24] I'm gonna buy so much virtual console shit on this thing and

[00:15:29] They they kind of mentioned me saying that a little bit like they

[00:15:32] They know that's one of their videos kind of they mentioned on one of their videos

[00:15:35] I think it was for like launch title madness or some shit. They were like

[00:15:39] Like oh a buddy of ours was he bought a Wii U just for the virtual console shit

[00:15:44] I was like hey, that was like

[00:15:46] 80% probably me

[00:15:49] I came up and bought all of our Wii U

[00:15:55] But yeah, fuck I downloaded

[00:15:59] Super Mario RP as soon as I got my Wii you hooked up to the internet and got my Nintendo account ready and should I bought

[00:16:05] Super Mario RPG Wario Land 4

[00:16:08] It's the bunch of a bunch of Mega Man battle network that now in hindsight was kind of

[00:16:15] Stupid because now I can just get it on like anything

[00:16:17] Yeah, but Nintendo was still like a lot of that stuff was just virtual console

[00:16:22] They weren't like like remaking or like packaging a lot of that stuff either, but that's when we

[00:16:27] Early in the podcast year one when we did Mario RPG. I got I played on the Wii U. That's where I played it

[00:16:32] Nice, that's really cool. Yeah, you know, I don't think you made a stupid decision buying the battle network games

[00:16:38] Cuz those were not gonna come out for at least

[00:16:45] Oh

[00:16:47] They are man, there's nothing

[00:16:50] There I guess there's like one rogue like that's kind of like battle network, but it's just it's still not it's not the same

[00:16:55] Yeah, and like the whole screen even like

[00:16:58] Gameboy games are good. What's that from Eden or something like that? Oh?

[00:17:02] Yeah, it's the same thing but with

[00:17:05] Basically something yeah

[00:17:07] The fuck were you saying Jared?

[00:17:09] No, no, I was just saying that like like the screen of the Wii was actually like pretty decent

[00:17:14] Especially if her playing like gameboy games and some virtual stuff like it worked really well

[00:17:18] And that fucker the gamepad is

[00:17:21] Packed with shit. It's got the amiibo reader. It's got IR. It's got a touchscreen a stylus

[00:17:28] It's got front and rear facing cameras. It's got gyro. Wow. I remember the cameras. I think it has

[00:17:35] Does it have rumble? I'm not sure if it has rumble or not

[00:17:38] I don't think so remember

[00:17:40] Sure

[00:17:41] The home button actually lights up in shit

[00:17:44] Yeah, unlike the switch the switch

[00:17:46] But the fucking joy cons and like the pro controllers on the switch

[00:17:50] The home button has that little LED ring around it that does fucking nothing and it's so stupid

[00:17:56] Like why even you could control your TV there was it could double as like a like a super remote and work for your TV to

[00:18:05] band

[00:18:06] There was

[00:18:08] There was a it was one like fatal frame game where you would like hold the the gamepad up the TV

[00:18:14] Like it was the camera from fatal frame and like use it to take pictures of the

[00:18:19] Of the ghost and ship insane

[00:18:23] Yeah, but I think they wanted you to do it like walking throughout your house. So

[00:18:28] Yes

[00:18:30] Coming out of your closet

[00:18:33] That's funny

[00:18:35] It's wild the base version because there was two I think bundles when it launched the base version only had eight gigs of memory

[00:18:42] Which is kind of crazy as nothing. Holy shit

[00:18:46] Yeah, that one had eight and the one above it had 32 like wasn't the price difference like a hundred dollars between the two of them

[00:18:53] Yeah, it was something like that. I will like the larger one. I remember being pretty expensive

[00:18:58] Like 350 or something, which is crazy. I do remember selling a lot of the $350 ones when I worked at GameStop. So that yeah

[00:19:10] That's oh, yeah, the the base version was

[00:19:14] 29999 and then the deluxe was 3 49 99

[00:19:18] That's and what was that what was the storage difference?

[00:19:21] I missed that part eight gigs for the for the OG and then 32 for the deluxe

[00:19:26] You're paying 50 extra dollars for the 32 gig which actually doesn't seem like that's not bad

[00:19:31] Like that seems a good deal for back then money. That's pretty fucking cheap

[00:19:36] What I wouldn't fucking give to go back then and then just enjoy my life

[00:19:41] Now I just have to struggle to buy a fucking loaf of Sara Lee bread

[00:19:50] Fuck

[00:19:52] That's really really cool about the Wii U is that it's it's a basic

[00:19:57] I don't want to say a hundred percent backward compatible, but it's it's

[00:20:01] Almost 100% back with compatible with like everything the Wii does

[00:20:05] You can hook up the fucking stupid sensor bar

[00:20:08] You can hook up the Wii remotes to work with it

[00:20:10] You can pop in like any fucking Wii game to it and then we'll run it

[00:20:15] Almost natively because it has to boot into like the the virtual Wii. Yeah

[00:20:19] Like the new is like a Wii emulator on it essentially. Yeah. Yeah

[00:20:23] Yeah, I'm kind of a I was kind of upset that it didn't read GameCube games

[00:20:28] And I would have been that would have been amazing

[00:20:31] And I'm also a little bit upset that it didn't really upscale the Wii games all the way up to match

[00:20:38] the output

[00:20:40] But they at least they were clear and you could see what the hell you were doing

[00:20:43] Which is you can play which is which is great. Yeah. Yeah, I mean I mean now as well

[00:20:48] I mean, I don't know about GameCube games

[00:20:50] But it like the Wii U is pretty easy to like jailbreak now and you can get a lot of that stuff on the Wii U

[00:20:56] Again, I don't know about GameCube games

[00:20:58] Those are a little harder to run and emulate depending on the console

[00:21:01] but I don't know it's maybe the Wii U actually I've got mine modded and I

[00:21:06] Don't know if maybe it was just the way I was doing it, but it took me fucking forever

[00:21:10] It took me like four hours

[00:21:12] to do

[00:21:14] But but when when you do mod it and get it set up to where it can run GameCube games

[00:21:21] Like I have it set up to where I can just download I

[00:21:25] Guess I could I could download. I'm not saying I do download GameCube ISOs are wrong

[00:21:31] Not saying I do but I could I could download one and then put it on my SD card

[00:21:36] I run it through this like virtual console injector

[00:21:40] And then it it plays GameCube games like a hundred percent like zero issues like it runs them natively

[00:21:46] That's awesome. They get it has everything it needs like in the console itself to run GameCube games perfectly fine

[00:21:54] But yeah for whatever reason they were just like no, that's what's an interesting like like a thing because if they

[00:22:01] You know found a way to circumvent that technology and make it still work and everything

[00:22:06] Clearly like people can can do it themselves and make it work

[00:22:09] Right yeah, like how great would that would have been if they're like here's this new iteration of Nintendo

[00:22:14] It plays the new stuff. It plays we it plays GameCube you have all the virtual console stuff on it

[00:22:18] It's like the everything Nintendo in this one box that could have been a great selling point for them

[00:22:22] And wasn't like the original we like two GameCube's taped together

[00:22:26] Wasn't it like the same hardware?

[00:22:30] It was it was a prettier version of that yeah, right and you're running basically the same emulator on the

[00:22:36] I don't know if it had the same hardware on the Wii U right right why not let it just play GameCube games

[00:22:41] I mean at that moment if

[00:22:45] Looking back now as a collector at that point if Nintendo would have let the Wii you run GameCube games

[00:22:50] That would have cost the GameCube games price to

[00:22:55] Skyrocket and now they would have plateaued it by now

[00:22:59] So they would be a comfortable place right now to buy a GameCube games because there would be easily or easier

[00:23:04] Accessible ways to play a lot of these things like people wouldn't have let them rod in their

[00:23:08] Ender addicts or had sent sell them to GameStop and GameStop gotten rid of them

[00:23:12] Which don't sell your games to GameStop sell them to me. I'll buy them

[00:23:20] Right

[00:23:22] Or if you're a young young child just don't sell them at all keep that yes forever

[00:23:27] Never get rid of it learn from our mistakes

[00:23:29] Oh my god

[00:23:30] If if if young dumb Aaron had not sold that copy of clock tower to struggle within to GameStop like

[00:23:40] fucking

[00:23:41] 17 years ago for just 30 bucks dude. I'd be sitting at an easy

[00:23:47] $300 that game is garbage, but people people want to buy it

[00:23:52] And it doesn't it doesn't matter just take it from Aaron

[00:23:55] He bought Dragon Quest 5 for what 40 bucks and now it's the mortgage

[00:24:00] I had to pay a mortgage to get my copy crazy dude

[00:24:05] Or I pre-ordered yokai watch 3 for 40 bucks. Jesus 300 300 plus dollars

[00:24:14] And you know how me getting Avalon for 70 dollars hurt you hurt you

[00:24:20] Yokai watch 3 for 40 hurts me

[00:24:22] My my story of that is I love Super Mario Sunshine and I was convinced

[00:24:29] It was this was like 2019 or so. I was like, okay

[00:24:31] This is never coming in the switch. I'm just gonna buy it

[00:24:33] So I paid like 60 70 dollars for a gamecube copy of it and like the next year they announced like the 3D all-stars collection

[00:24:39] I was like see

[00:24:42] Same same thing happened to me bought it off of you in like a few weeks later. Oh 3D all-stars collections

[00:24:48] Fuck I just bought this all stars

[00:24:51] Did um did any of you guys ever play Nintendo land on the weed is that

[00:24:57] Oh

[00:24:58] Nintendo land was so good. It was like that it was the pack-in game for the yeah you

[00:25:06] The we like you not though not that yeah, but the other one I

[00:25:09] Remember watching a good buddy of mine

[00:25:11] I went to go visit his dorm one time and they're playing we they're playing

[00:25:15] You're playing

[00:25:16] Nintendo land for a little bit before we eventually played Smash Bros for Wii U for like three hours straight

[00:25:23] And yeah Nintendo land seemed really really cool

[00:25:27] It was kind of like kind of Wii sports was like a really good tech demo for what the Wii could do

[00:25:33] Nintendo land was was that for the Wii U? It was

[00:25:37] I got need to track down that game and see what the games are again

[00:25:41] Nintendo land Wii U. Well, yeah, they had like there there was like a there's one for like a lot that

[00:25:47] Metroid one which consisted of like someone flying in the ship and then other three were like soldiers and you would fight Ridley

[00:25:53] There was another one that was like a Luigi's mansion one where like you would work together with four other people to suck up

[00:25:59] The ghosts and it was almost similar to zombie you where the gamepad person was like deploying the ghosts

[00:26:04] my favorite one was there's like a legend of Zelda one where it's like literally just you and your friends wandering around this

[00:26:10] Like little area and just fighting like little puppet book hoblins and everything there's a Pikmin level

[00:26:15] It was really cool

[00:26:15] This is like what you're saying Aaron where it kind of showed off what the Wii U could do

[00:26:19] But it had a bunch of like Nintendo representation of different games in there, which was fun

[00:26:25] That's you know, I never heard of that till I saw I think it was a video from Karek Aris like

[00:26:31] Oh, yeah, yeah, I had no idea it existed because when I bought the Wii U it was the

[00:26:37] The the Zelda version the Wind Waker version the Wind Waker one and then when I bought my second Wii U

[00:26:43] Which is the one that I currently have it was a pre-owned

[00:26:46] You know GameStop Wii U because I couldn't find one new anywhere

[00:26:52] But I came with nothing

[00:26:55] Also, I think Jared I think we forgot to have you intro your your podcast and shit am I

[00:27:02] Okay, okay, well no, we'll do another one at the end. We can do it at the end. Yeah. Yeah my bad my bad

[00:27:10] Yeah, we're just all excited we're pumped to talk about the Wii U man, right? I know dude

[00:27:14] Like there's out of our whole like little ecosystem like our community of podcasters

[00:27:20] I think us three and like maybe maybe Chris from retro hangover

[00:27:26] We're like the only four that I know of that really know of or like love the game or not the game

[00:27:33] Yeah, fuck the Wii U man. I

[00:27:36] Mean people see the Wii U right and the conversation around it was it was a failure right because it only sold

[00:27:41] 13 million was in production for maybe five years didn't even bleed into the switch a little bit

[00:27:47] And the biggest thing was the third-party support wasn't there a lot of developers weren't developing for this

[00:27:52] But the first-party games and Nintendo games were fucking good like all of that. We had the the Wind Waker remake

[00:27:58] We had the Twilight Princess on there

[00:28:00] The Pikmin games animal crossing super Smash Brothers

[00:28:04] Like we had a lot of really good games and like so we talked about in length about the virtual console stuff already

[00:28:09] But it was just that was the conversation is like the Wii U sucks

[00:28:11] And that's just what people think about it and that's that's so dumb

[00:28:16] It's so fucking easy to just like to just look at like the sales numbers or see the word

[00:28:22] See the words sold poorly or or failure so easy to just see that and then point and laugh

[00:28:28] But it's it's another thing to like and anyone who either

[00:28:32] owned or

[00:28:34] Or play to Wii U

[00:28:35] They're like there's there's a pretty fucking good chance that they they love that fucking thing because like once you actually do

[00:28:41] Play it and put time into it. It's a

[00:28:43] There's a lot of bang for your buck man

[00:28:45] We can see that being true in the switch a lot of the switch ports are we you ports and this still the best-selling game on

[00:28:52] Switch is Mario Kart 8 which was a Wii U game

[00:28:56] So they're like a 12 13 year old game already

[00:29:00] Yeah, exactly there and there's still a couple that are trapped on their Xenoblade Chronicles X

[00:29:04] Which oh so good is still trapped on the Wii U. Yeah, that's so fucking unfortunate man

[00:29:11] And like it's crazy because you also got fine people complained. Oh, we're getting

[00:29:18] Mass Effect 3 two years after it came out for $60 which

[00:29:23] Yeah, right, but it's like the complete edition. It has like all the DLC all the patches everything

[00:29:30] So the same game that's probably gonna come out on

[00:29:34] PS3 and Xbox 360

[00:29:36] It's already on the Wii U with everything same with Assassin's Creed and

[00:29:43] What was the Ark of the Arkham game that came out on it and take a tag and watch dogs watch dogs. Yeah, oh

[00:29:51] Yeah, they got Tekken tag tournament like to yeah, and that was actually like

[00:29:57] Again from gaming off the grid

[00:29:59] I've never played the Tekken or Tekken tag tournament to on Wii U

[00:30:02] But I know from then that they say it's actually like the best version of that game because of all the the shit

[00:30:08] They've added to it with the gamepad and shit

[00:30:10] It's a really really good version of Tekken tag tournament too

[00:30:15] Which I don't think I have played a Tekken game. That's better than that just the amount of care

[00:30:20] Really that's really interesting because I've just now I love fighting games

[00:30:24] But I just now gotten to Tekken with eight and now I'm really curious of going back and playing some of those old Tekken games

[00:30:30] You should do it just to fuck around with them and then figure out where they came from because I

[00:30:37] Probably because I also put a lot of time in tag tournament too

[00:30:41] But it has that Marvel vs. Capcom thing where you can swap out characters on the fly and it won't stop

[00:30:48] Interesting, it's really really cool. I haven't played it yet

[00:30:55] Got played seven

[00:30:57] Fuck I forgot injustice was also on we oh, yeah

[00:31:02] Call of Duty Ghost black ops to I know I know Tekken tag tournament to is backwards compatible on Xbox

[00:31:09] So you have an Xbox. Oh shit

[00:31:10] You can play it there

[00:31:11] But yeah, looks like the so the Wii U version of a tag-and-tag tournament to

[00:31:16] Has it's got a game mode that uses power-ups from from Super Mario and shit

[00:31:20] There's such as like mushrooms and poison mushrooms and shit wait really that's amazing

[00:31:24] There's a mini game called Tekken ball

[00:31:27] And there's costumes based on Mario characters and star box and Metroid and Zelda and shit

[00:31:33] And every stage from the 360 and ps3 versions are included on like just on the disc. So let's yeah

[00:31:39] Did you guys ever play the oh?

[00:31:42] Gosh, oh that like the NES remake or the remix pack. Yes, we use yeah

[00:31:47] That was like a bunch of little snippets of NES games that she was cool

[00:31:50] So I bought both of them I did I bought both of them for like 20 bucks at Target each and

[00:31:57] I had seen the completionist before he fucked up

[00:32:00] Played them. Holy shit. These are incredible. I need to play these and I still have it but

[00:32:07] They do look awesome

[00:32:09] Like little challenges you like punch out and it's like time your punch

[00:32:12] Too advanced and it would be like site bike or is like finish using a turbo or whatever

[00:32:18] Yeah, we're like Mario Bros. But your link stuff like yeah, exactly. Is it is it kind of like?

[00:32:25] Borealware or is it just yes, but with more time are you doing yes the challenges?

[00:32:32] Okay, yeah, yeah, I was that's cool ship that is right

[00:32:35] Why haven't they done another one of those I was waiting for like a super Nintendo fuck

[00:32:40] NES remes SNES remix and it never happened so much potential for it another game trapped in the Wii U

[00:32:48] Yeah, well it also the first one came out on 3ds2, but it that that's right. That's right. Yeah, the second one did it

[00:32:56] What is it the the wind waker?

[00:32:58] Then the Twilight Princess remix those are still those are still trapped on the Wii U as well

[00:33:03] So what kind of cuz I mean you can play Twilight Princess on Gamecube and we and then when waker you can play on Gamecube

[00:33:09] But nothing modern though and there's been so many rumors of them coming out, but I

[00:33:15] Played

[00:33:17] We play wind waker. I think it was last year of the year before on the Wii U and it's the

[00:33:24] First time I've played it since I played it on Gamecube way back when

[00:33:28] That is the way that you want to play Wind Waker

[00:33:31] It is the definitive edition absolutely waker it

[00:33:34] They streamlined the

[00:33:37] Quest at the end of the game where you have to find a piece of stuff to try for all the try for its quest

[00:33:41] They streamlines so it's a whole lot easier

[00:33:45] Swift sale sailing faster that makes a whole world of difference

[00:33:50] It just has a bunch of little improvements that just make it so much better

[00:33:56] Yeah, absolutely like I was playing and I got the parts of the game where I was like

[00:34:00] Oh fuck this place

[00:34:00] I don't want to do it and by the time that I started it and got to the other side like oh

[00:34:04] That's a whole lot better than it was

[00:34:08] Actually didn't chug dick

[00:34:11] right

[00:34:13] And I don't remember them changing a ton to Twilight aside from there being just gamepad interaction

[00:34:20] Integration with like menus and stuff like that

[00:34:21] But I mean Twilight also like runs fine on the Wii U too

[00:34:25] The biggest complaint that I had heard of Twilight because I hadn't played it

[00:34:29] I'm probably gonna play it this year miss that the graphics suck a little bit other than that is

[00:34:35] Just a great same. It's a lot of brown. It's a lot of brown game

[00:34:38] It's a very much like Xbox 360 era of brown games

[00:34:46] HD brown

[00:34:50] HD shit brown you can really see all the pixels

[00:34:55] Very beige

[00:34:58] On the back of the box very beige from from giant bomb or something stupid

[00:35:05] Dude I um I pulled up this list of

[00:35:09] different of games that are still trapped on the Wii U

[00:35:14] Man yeah first one scene of blade Chronicles X when I got a Wii U

[00:35:17] That was like one of the first games that I bought on eBay with scene of blade Chronicles X because I love that series

[00:35:22] I still have yet to play X. Yeah, I only bit of that

[00:35:26] I had a friend that had never owned it but to get like the big-ass mechs

[00:35:30] I mean typical Xenoblade fashion as a long game

[00:35:32] It's like 40 50 hours in to get those mechs and

[00:35:36] Oh, but the world is the world of that game looks so cool and fuck well, there's star Fox zero

[00:35:42] Which I mean everybody says sucks, but I heard

[00:35:48] I played it I played it and I beat it and I had a great time

[00:35:53] Oh, that's awesome. There's a toggle

[00:35:58] Great to star Fox guy like a star like the star Fox

[00:36:00] Oh

[00:36:02] There's a toggle in the menu to kind of like lock the shooting to be forward the entire time

[00:36:09] Oh, you can sing so it makes it more like a traditional star Fox

[00:36:12] But there are some levels where you have to use you still have to do it

[00:36:16] Well, that was people's biggest issue with it

[00:36:18] Right is like the cockpit like being the game pad and that's how you kind of aimed was looking through that

[00:36:24] And it's it's not bad

[00:36:27] Yeah

[00:36:28] But at least the way that the final fight is built around that mechanic

[00:36:35] We are never gonna see that game outside of the Wii U. It's stuck on the Wii U forever

[00:36:40] Yeah, it's and there's a lot of games that are like specific to that where it's like unless they do

[00:36:44] They really invest into it like Skyward Sword where they like really try to create some kind of button layout for it

[00:36:51] Those games are stuck there. You know, they would have to break the entire game

[00:36:55] But like break it entirely and rebuild it to make it work outside of the Wii U because it

[00:37:00] The parts that require you to do it require you to do it. There's no working around it. Oh

[00:37:05] and

[00:37:06] Before I talk about some more games that are trapped on the Wii U

[00:37:10] I remember there being a couple games on the Wii U and 3ds e shops that were that were cross by

[00:37:17] You could buy like a copy on either Wii U or 3ds and get a free copy on the other like I

[00:37:24] Found a list of these two. Yeah pirate pop plus remember that mutant buds

[00:37:28] severed zeo drifter

[00:37:31] whoa Dave

[00:37:33] Oh

[00:37:37] Dave that's great any S remix pack that's that's stuck on the Wii U

[00:37:43] Paper Mario color splash again. Everybody says it sucks, but all I was I actually like I like color splash

[00:37:50] It's it's hard to be careful. It's not like sticker star sticker stars the one everybody hates my bad

[00:37:55] It's color splash

[00:37:57] Colors people kind of hate that one too. Yeah, people hate color splash as well origami King is when they're like

[00:38:02] I mean, it's fine, but it's still it's not quite there yet

[00:38:06] But color splash was fun. I like the whole like paint mechanic to color splash and sticker star is also

[00:38:11] Fine, it's just like having to collect all the stickers and have that be the moves was kind of the pain

[00:38:17] But that sucks ass

[00:38:20] Yoshi's woolly world. I mean we kind of got Yoshi's craft is what crafted world

[00:38:26] Way better than crafted crafted sucks

[00:38:28] Yeah, they put woolly world on the readies. Yes, I think right

[00:38:33] Yeah, yep. Yep, forget about that. We were was great. That's a great game

[00:38:37] And you can get that really sweet like

[00:38:41] Pretty big poochie of ebo. Oh, yeah. Yeah, like the the ebo when they did

[00:38:46] Stuff one are they what do they go for expensive?

[00:38:50] Fuck being get out of here. Where's my chrome?

[00:38:54] I see a hundred bucks

[00:38:58] 166

[00:39:00] Holy shit looks like for for just the the loose amiibo itself around like

[00:39:07] 75 to 100 bucks

[00:39:09] Boxed though. Holy shit. You're looking anywhere from like a hundred to 250

[00:39:15] Damn, that's crazy. I mean he's adorable. So I mean, can you pull a price on cuteness?

[00:39:22] Yeah, but those were those were like actual soft

[00:39:26] Yeah, they're like yeah, yeah, they're not a couple of the yo-yo

[00:39:30] Recovered on yarn. Yeah. Yeah, they're they're actually like like crafted with

[00:39:36] I don't know if it's just if it's yarn, but like, yeah, they're actually soft

[00:39:40] I have a I have a pink one and a blue one

[00:39:43] That's one of my favorite like 2d

[00:39:47] 2d games is on the Wii U Donk-Kon country returns and not returns tropical freeze

[00:39:55] Tropical freeze so much you'll remember when it came out on the switch and Nintendo's like quick pull it from the we

[00:40:01] From the Wii U because 20 bucks everywhere

[00:40:06] I think it plays as stoner cousin and it was easy

[00:40:10] You could play as funky Kong and then like there was like 80,000 memes that were like

[00:40:15] Burger King featuring

[00:40:17] Funky Kong

[00:40:28] There's animal crossing amiibo festival, but that sucks dick

[00:40:31] Game sucks so bad. Was that the Mario Party one? Yeah. Yeah, it's fucking terrible

[00:40:38] I bought that for ten dollars

[00:40:42] Mostly because it came with with some animal crossing amiibos which were expensive for a little bit, but

[00:40:49] Yeah, it's terrible like you it's so fucking slow. You just move across the board

[00:40:55] There's no mini games. You just move across the board mini games. No, it's stupid man

[00:41:02] Sonic Lost World that's still stuck on there, too. I guess there's one on 3ds

[00:41:08] They they had Sonic and all stars racing transformed another shit. What are you talking about? Yeah, but this one had Danica Patrick

[00:41:14] She was also in the 360 one

[00:41:17] I know that for a fact because every time you picked her the announcer would say

[00:41:22] Danica Patrick, I know it's not right because I've seen the South Park episode

[00:41:26] 80,000 times and they always say fuck you Danica Patrick up more porn soup in the new

[00:41:38] Oh

[00:41:44] Devil's third is ridiculously expensive. Oh, yeah, that's like in the 300s. That's why I never played that game

[00:41:51] I uh, I don't think I've ever seen gameplay from it. I just know that it's

[00:41:56] Ridiculously expensive. Oh Kirby in the canvas curse. Yep. All that's probably expensive to game and Wario when it lands expensive

[00:42:03] That was expensive. Yeah. Yeah

[00:42:06] Yeah, that's it. You know, it's crazy that the Wii use the one that kept by Bayonetta alive

[00:42:12] Because they're gonna say that's what I was gonna grab is like

[00:42:14] Too after they're gonna dip it Nintendo's like, you know, we'll take it

[00:42:18] We'll have it on ours and the sequels the Wii you had the sequel there

[00:42:22] So yeah, and he got 10 out of 10s fucking everywhere. It was so you can think of Wii U being at a three

[00:42:28] Yeah, there you go

[00:42:30] I don't I don't think I want to but yeah

[00:42:35] It wasn't great it lost a lot of its charm

[00:42:39] That fucking sucks man. Like the first one was really really good. Yeah, and the which I

[00:42:46] I own like five fucking copies of the first Bayonetta by accident like

[00:42:54] Yeah, okay, so well, I guess four by accident

[00:42:58] So I bought a copy of it for the 360 back in the day because I never played that one to play it

[00:43:04] It was good and then they were like, oh, hey games games with gold Bayonetta. So yeah, I got that

[00:43:13] Bandita 2 came to switch came with a free copy of Bayonetta one. So there's another one

[00:43:20] right and then

[00:43:23] There's another one from something else, but I can't remember but I still haven't played Bayonetta

[00:43:28] I have I have that

[00:43:30] I

[00:43:35] Had the same thing with I think it was either Gears of War one or two

[00:43:39] I was I was just up to my tits in like free codes. I'm pretty sure was Gears of War 2 because so

[00:43:47] Let's see. I owned a physical copy and then games with gold and

[00:43:52] Then I bought the ultimate edition of the first Gears of War. They were like here's a free copy of Gears of War 2 for the

[00:43:58] 360 bud

[00:44:00] and then it is something else I

[00:44:03] think it was

[00:44:06] Pre-orders for I think it was like Gears of War judgment also gave you a copy of Gears of War 2 or something stupid

[00:44:13] So I had at one point. I had like four copies of this game just chilling

[00:44:20] When Aaron dies 25 copies of Bayonetta goes to his family

[00:44:25] Okay

[00:44:26] And looking back now I should have fucking sold that shit man. Oh, yeah, it's probably worth nothing now, but

[00:44:34] At least it could have been worse

[00:44:37] That's true. It could have been like

[00:44:39] Trying to get like a really shitty game pocket bike right tiny bike racers

[00:44:43] I don't know what the fuck those Burger King games are called

[00:44:45] They've been banned out of three

[00:44:49] Damn

[00:44:52] Shots fucking fire. I really liked Bayonetta one. I really like Bayonetta two the story in Bayonetta three was good

[00:45:01] But the gameplay was not there. That's what I was gonna ask

[00:45:04] I was gonna ask what the problem was it was the gameplay is the gameplay. Yeah, cuz they

[00:45:08] Like the whole combo system into bayonetta series is insane

[00:45:11] You could change like some crazy ass combos and it just felt incredibly neutered in three

[00:45:17] Yeah, oh

[00:45:19] Okay, here's something. Okay. Did you guys ever fuck with me verse? No, you know, I never actually like interacted with me verse

[00:45:27] We were seeing like when you boot up the Wii U

[00:45:29] It has like all the little me's that are running around and have a little like like things that people can post everything

[00:45:35] But I never interacted with it. How have we talked about like a little little like background music and shit

[00:45:40] I can't picture it in my mind right now

[00:45:43] Like the will you home music? Yeah, how does it go? I help me

[00:45:48] You say that and I can only think of the Wii theme

[00:45:53] Hang on it's I can't even explain it's like

[00:46:01] Yeah, okay, there's a little reverb in it. Yeah, dude, it kind of has like a

[00:46:08] Not like a chime but it's got like the like

[00:46:12] Some bells, I don't know. Yeah something

[00:46:18] I'm playing I'm playing on a YouTube right now you how you were describing it. You're pretty accurate

[00:46:22] Do you think I do a pretty good job with that? I'm pretty good at vocalizing my my thoughts

[00:46:28] But oh me verse me verse was super cool. I gotta lean forward for this. I need I'm gonna get really into this shit

[00:46:35] Me verse was just super fucking rad. First of all, I didn't

[00:46:39] When I got my Wii U B verse was shut the fuck down

[00:46:42] but I was able to get maybe like

[00:46:46] Like a year and a half in with me verse when I got my 3ds and

[00:46:50] Because that was also like cross compatible to anything that you did in me verse on your 3ds

[00:46:56] You could see on your Wii U and shit

[00:46:58] That's why I didn't know that and me verse was just like it's just this big social fucking social

[00:47:05] I guess media

[00:47:06] site

[00:47:07] Or social media app or site for like all things Nintendo

[00:47:11] You could you go to like different games and like make little drawings or talk about how much you love

[00:47:18] You know the game or you'd like take screenshots from games and post them like in the server for that game

[00:47:23] I'd be like oh dude look at look at poochie isn't he isn't he adorable and everybody would give you a thumbs up saying

[00:47:30] Oh, yeah, whatever the hell it said and that and like Street Pass are two things. I regret not interacting with

[00:47:36] I didn't do Street Pass either Street Pass is really fucking cool, too, man

[00:47:41] I did a lot of that well not a lot. I did quite a bit of that with the the Street Pass me Plaza and

[00:47:48] Yo Kai watch too, I think

[00:47:51] Yeah, it's cool

[00:47:53] That's what I knew that the stupid they shut down me verse man. It was really really cool

[00:47:59] It was just to me. There's I've seen as the

[00:48:01] plaza at

[00:48:03] What's that game fucking squitting oh

[00:48:08] Splatoon I mean what also got it start here on the Wii U. Yeah

[00:48:13] Did either of you ever played the original one? Oh

[00:48:16] No, I

[00:48:17] Played a demo. I never owned it. I had a buddy that owned and I played a little bit. I played more into two

[00:48:23] I played a lot of two. I played a lot of two as well

[00:48:26] I still remember the the conversation around one was like people were like dying for some kind of like narrative story

[00:48:31] Which is what happened with to that's why they have a story to it

[00:48:35] But I remember it's still being good even with like the game pad and you having to use the game pad to aim

[00:48:39] I remember being weird at first and even now like the game uses gyro

[00:48:43] But like professional Splatoon players will be like oh, yeah gyro is like the preferred means of playing Splatoon which is interesting

[00:48:50] I remember that one of the biggest complaints around the game was that people were

[00:48:54] Jumping into it and being like I can't win because I'm playing like I'm playing Call of Duty

[00:48:59] I'm just trying to kill people instead of painting. Yep, and the sweaty Nintendo and there's would be like no paint

[00:49:09] On Nintendo to being like making a third-person shooter, but not making it about like actual

[00:49:15] Painting the environment. That's why that's why Nintendo is so cool. Remember arms. I

[00:49:21] Love arms. That game is so fucking cool. Oh arms was cool. I had so much charm

[00:49:27] We should we should do an arms night arm

[00:49:32] That'd be so fucking cool dude, I'm down and so

[00:49:37] Instead of baking like a like a regular fucking fighting game Nintendo was like no man. No arms

[00:49:44] They got them arms them spring arms

[00:49:46] I wish they made a sequel to arms because I'm they fucking should dude

[00:49:50] They could do a lot with arms enough about arms though. Let's sell it. Let's take an ad break out

[01:00:06] I don't want to eat a fucking NFT. They can keep that shit to them. So even if they're delicious

[01:00:11] What if it's an NFT of a peanut butter and jelly sandwich? What if it's a very tasty looking NFT?

[01:00:18] Okay, okay. I've got me now. I would buy one of those like one of those wall chickens from Castlevania. They look really tasty

[01:00:27] Or the anytime you find a hot dog in a Kirby game those always look tasty as hell

[01:00:32] That would be so good

[01:00:35] I don't man the invincible devil sin the devil sin sandwich from uh, oh the brood witch from aquatine hunger force

[01:00:43] Oh

[01:00:45] Is that what you're talking about? No, no, no that there's a gay deadly premonition

[01:00:54] uh strawberry jelly corn flakes and like

[01:00:58] Spam pot patay or something in the sandwich. That's crazy

[01:01:02] Easy

[01:01:03] You're looking it up right now. It is this it is the sinner sandwich

[01:01:07] Hey, yeah typical super pot saga fashion got a look it up. Yeah turkey. Holy shit. Oh my god. These ads are relentless, dude

[01:01:15] turkey strawberry jam and cereal york described it as a self-inflicted punishment to atone for past sins

[01:01:24] Yeah

[01:01:27] Are they from uh butter bros?

[01:01:29] Yeah, are they are they butter bro ads?

[01:01:33] Yeah exactly

[01:01:34] I'd say no they're real because they've been they've been dealing with some some people trying to take their name recently so

[01:01:40] You know what was weird the the Wii U had a weird amount of like movie tie-ins still where I felt like at this point

[01:01:46] Like those kind of games weren't around anymore

[01:01:49] But there's like how to train your dragon to and disney's planes for the Wii U

[01:01:55] Whatever happened to planes by the way, i'm gonna look this up when did planes come out?

[01:01:59] What are we getting planes to mother fuckers?

[01:02:02] Wasn't there like a cars game two for it that was

[01:02:05] Supposed to be yeah, I think cars cars two or the one with our spies. I don't know

[01:02:11] 2018 was when uh planes came out. Oh planes got a sequel called planes fire and rescue

[01:02:17] What you did get a fuck

[01:02:19] A new planes fire and rescue

[01:02:22] What are they rescuing?

[01:02:26] Fire

[01:02:28] They're rescuing the fire or are they setting things on fire and then rescuing them

[01:02:33] It's all conspiracy man job job security

[01:02:38] Jet fuel doesn't melt steel beams

[01:02:45] Oh, man, oh, there's a resin evil game on the Wii U

[01:02:48] Dude and uh right. Relationers. Yeah, god damn. There's like three skylanders games on this bitch

[01:02:55] And

[01:02:57] The whole toys the life phase was was pretty prominent here too. Yeah, that was

[01:03:03] Disney infinity that was on here, too

[01:03:05] Yeah, there were like, uh, what three versions of it

[01:03:09] Yeah, now what else is on this goddamn thing me verse

[01:03:13] Hickman dimensions there was a lot of twins the life shit on the Wii U

[01:03:17] Oh, yeah

[01:03:17] and um

[01:03:19] All the cool shit that you could do with the gamepad with like Netflix and hulu and shit because like

[01:03:26] You ever watched Netflix on your Wii U?

[01:03:28] Hold on. I had a roommate that used it a lot for uh

[01:03:33] For youtube and hulu and it was cool because like on the on the gamepad

[01:03:38] You could use the touchscreen to just like scroll through shit

[01:03:41] Or like type in shit

[01:03:42] Instead of using your like dumb fucking roku remote with the dumb fucking d-pad

[01:03:47] Trying to type in the word like breaking bad or whatever

[01:03:51] And it only wants to register 1b for some fucking reason and you're searching for raking ad or some shit

[01:04:00] Thought on the Wii U no

[01:04:02] Hey, that's another that's another good ad raking rat ad

[01:04:06] raking raking raking ad raking ad raking raking ad it's just raking. Oh my god

[01:04:13] It's all the whole channel's dedicated to the various raking that you can do

[01:04:20] Oh, oh my fucking god, man, and yeah, that was that was really cool. Oh, yeah, you could play

[01:04:26] Blue rays and the thing which I guess xbox was xbox and playstation are both also playing blue rays

[01:04:31] That was like the the thing them

[01:04:34] At oh, dude, man, I didn't register that I could play a blu-ray game

[01:04:38] Yeah, I didn't even know that it could play blu-ray either that's wild

[01:04:41] I didn't know it could play movies period

[01:04:43] Yeah

[01:04:44] Oh, I didn't know this. Well, I kind of knew it but then they had nintendo tv

[01:04:49] Which was where you could connect your um, you connect your like set top box to your uh

[01:04:56] To your wee we you yeah, that's where the tv um

[01:05:00] Because there's a little tv button on the wee u game pad and that's how you controlled like the remote volume and channels and all

[01:05:05] Of these things like that

[01:05:06] Which I thought only the the xbox one did that because I know the xbox one has an hdmi in

[01:05:12] So you could control so you could connect your your set top box to it and use the one guide to watch your tv and shit

[01:05:18] But yeah, I remember that

[01:05:20] Yeah, the wee u

[01:05:22] Has that as well too. We could use your your game pad as the remote

[01:05:26] It also had integration with like imdb and rotten tomatoes and micropedia

[01:05:30] And you could share shit through facebook twitter or meverse

[01:05:35] Yeah, one thing the wee u can do to the switch can't still the wee you could actually run like

[01:05:40] Google and you can go on the internet and everything which you still is still no internet service on the switch

[01:05:45] Yeah, that's right

[01:05:48] So you kind of you kind of can use the web browser on the switch

[01:05:53] Um, when you go to like post something to like facebook or twitter

[01:05:55] Yep, you just got to like scroll up a little bit and you you can find the address bar there and then you can just

[01:06:01] That's you can just browse the internet on your switch, but

[01:06:05] Which that's that's another thing I wanted to talk about too that I almost forgot is how the UI on the switch

[01:06:12] Is a piece of shit and it's nothing compared to the wee you or the 3ds

[01:06:17] um

[01:06:19] I think

[01:06:20] I think we talked about this a little bit on our um best features of field consoles episode

[01:06:26] Like the the the ui for the switch just feels so basic and like hollow and empty

[01:06:32] It feels like the framework for

[01:06:34] For something way better

[01:06:36] The wee was just full of pizzazz and character and shit. I mean nintendo usually is is someone that will you know

[01:06:44] And they'll go the direction of creativity over functionality sometimes where like even the 3ds and the wee you both have very similar kind of

[01:06:54] Home screens with like those very bubbly looking squares

[01:06:57] But you're right the the switch home screen looks very

[01:07:01] Like almost corporate. It's like you got your black. You got your white and that's it like that's that's all you can do

[01:07:06] Which even though you couldn't customize there wasn't like themes or anything on the wee you but just like having the icons

[01:07:12] And how they looked on the wee you just felt like it had more personality than the switch does

[01:07:17] How much of that can you attribute to iwata passing?

[01:07:21] True. Yeah, probably man

[01:07:23] Iwata was the goat man. Yeah

[01:07:26] There were a lot of times where the wee you kind of pisses me off like it sucks that you can't because like on the 3ds

[01:07:33] Now like any point in a game like on a 3ds game

[01:07:36] I guess not a ds game

[01:07:37] But like you could just press the home button and go to the home menu roll fast and like goof around and then go back to your game

[01:07:44] Uh, the wee you you can't if you push the home button

[01:07:47] You like close out of your game and yeah, then it has to do the like

[01:07:51] Please wait and load a loop but

[01:07:53] Other than that, I guess

[01:07:56] It's got the cool little like jingles and like little sound effects and you click on something and it's got the little

[01:08:02] The background has the like the a button and the b button and the r button and shit spinning around in the background

[01:08:08] And it just feels so cool man. Bring it back do something with the switch man

[01:08:13] Yeah, I do think we'll see anything for the the switch to the super switch

[01:08:19] I don't think so

[01:08:20] maybe

[01:08:22] Maybe we'll see

[01:08:23] We'll see

[01:08:25] But you know that the biggest thing for the wee you there were two things that got me to buy it the first time which were

[01:08:32] Wind Waker and Pikmin 3. Oh, yeah

[01:08:35] Ooh, and I put so much fucking time into Pikmin 3

[01:08:38] I beat that game so many times beat the challenge just so many times

[01:08:43] And i'm still surprised that it chugged

[01:08:46] Whenever you were getting the fruits juiced at the end of each day

[01:08:51] It was all that's funny

[01:08:53] What's it called the the frame rate would just completely tank while the fruits were getting turned into juice

[01:08:58] That's crazy. That's such a specific like time point for the game to crash like I can't hit this too much going on here

[01:09:04] I can't do it so fucking weird

[01:09:07] And the thing is on the on the switch it just runs perfectly

[01:09:11] That's so funny. Oh the poor wee you

[01:09:14] And there were a bunch of great games. There was a one called tank tank tank. That's basically yeah

[01:09:20] I saw I had never played that one, but I definitely saw it. Yeah, it's like a crazy tank shooter game

[01:09:26] It's like an amazing evolution of battle tank or whatever the fuck that computer game was called. That was all vector

[01:09:33] Oh, yeah, that's right. Oh, we also got wonderful 101 that was one of the switch to another platinum game

[01:09:40] Yeah, and it plays real funcally on switch. It definitely

[01:09:45] It definitely plays better on the wee you than it does in the switch, but it's oh really

[01:09:49] It's good. They at least tried

[01:09:53] You know something I actually really loved that I still like will stand by today the pro controller

[01:09:58] Actually loved the wee you pro controller

[01:10:02] Pretty fucking yeah, the game pads there and you can have it if you if you get the tvs being occupied or anything like that

[01:10:07] But the wee pro controller was actually a pretty good like second to that if you don't want to actually play on the game pad

[01:10:12] Yeah, dude, I almost forgot about this too. It had they had a couple different uh console variants like it had

[01:10:19] So you had like your your basic like

[01:10:21] Uh

[01:10:22] White and then black

[01:10:23] But then there was the uh the splatoon one that had like little color splats and like the squids and shit everywhere

[01:10:29] Then there was the uh the wind waker one that had like Legend of Zelda

[01:10:32] That one's so bad

[01:10:34] So I bought that's the first one that I bought um

[01:10:38] and

[01:10:39] It came with a digital code for wind waker and a digital code code for the Hyrule Historia

[01:10:45] And oh damn that's cool. Yeah, and like you would be able to like

[01:10:50] Look and read at the Hyrule Historia on the tablet. Yep. So cool

[01:10:55] Unfortunately, I had to sell it man and that shit hurt

[01:10:59] Fuck and like the thing is like when I bought it. I bought a uh, I bought it with

[01:11:04] Pikmin Mario Kart and I don't remember what else

[01:11:07] And like the night that I bought it. I invited a bunch of my friends over man. We spent hours just fucking playing Mario Kart

[01:11:14] Oh, yeah, I mean again, we can see it this way. It still holds up Mario Kart 8 is a fantastic Mario Kart game. Oh, yeah

[01:11:22] So much so they're still releasing new shit for I think like the most recent thing they did was they brought out

[01:11:27] Two new characters

[01:11:30] That they're still yep. Yeah, I think there's a little couple more. Yeah, that was the final wave

[01:11:34] The rest of the tracks and then two new characters

[01:11:38] We're surprised they're gonna go with that wouldn't surprise me switch to launched with Mario Kart 9

[01:11:45] That'd be cool. See or Mario Kart switch or whatever they want to call Mario Kart Wii U part two

[01:11:52] Switch you

[01:12:00] There's so many Wii U games that I remember seeing that I really wanted to get into

[01:12:03] I think this one's on switch now the tokyo mara dash sessions

[01:12:07] That one looked really cool. That's really good. The switch version is really okay. It is what I thought

[01:12:14] Oh, man, I put so much fucking time into that game. It's it's like persona but like

[01:12:21] I I actually played and beat it unlike persona. So so f u persona

[01:12:27] I I really like tokyo mirage sessions

[01:12:30] I think it's just because it's more like shin megami tense say than persona

[01:12:34] Kind of kind of I don't know. It's good though. I'm glad they've ordered that one

[01:12:38] Is the fire emblem representation just characters?

[01:12:41] Just the characters that you can summon or is there other like fire emblem-esque things in the story

[01:12:45] Kind of like their personas are the fire emblem characters. Yeah, their their mirages are persona or our

[01:12:51] Fire emblem characters like tharja

[01:12:54] cram

[01:12:55] The when you level up the like

[01:12:58] You know like like a fireman when you level up

[01:13:00] It's like dan in a la na and then you see like their stats go up like plus one plus one whatever

[01:13:05] it does that as well in tokyo mirage sessions

[01:13:10] and

[01:13:12] I think some of the bosses are fire emblem characters. I'm pretty sure I'm pretty certain

[01:13:18] Oh, I'm glad I'm glad they put a lot of Wii U games over man because that thing had a really short life

[01:13:22] Like what yeah four or five years

[01:13:25] So what's left stuck on it because I know wonderful one-on-one left bayonetta left

[01:13:31] In that last wonderful one one mario kart. Peter Mario's still there. Yeah, like big ones like that

[01:13:37] Mario's Mars

[01:13:38] I did not mario kart a mario maker the first one at least

[01:13:41] Yeah, that's not leaving

[01:13:43] I don't see paper mario leaving ever because they never port any paper blade

[01:13:48] Yeah star fox zero. Yes, you know, play zero and nintendo land

[01:13:52] I think there's a mario party

[01:13:55] This is a mario party 10 that one can stay there. That's fine. I'm okay. Yeah, that one sucks, but

[01:14:00] I think maybe senoblade might leave but I think it the

[01:14:06] Switch is not powerful enough to run it right so maybe

[01:14:09] And that was my argument

[01:14:10] I was like it feels like

[01:14:12] We would have seen them by now, right?

[01:14:13] But if it's a performance thing like you were saying zeno blade is a big game

[01:14:17] I don't know zeno blade chronicles 3 is also pretty big and that one like

[01:14:20] But it's also optimized for the switch that it can be more of an optimization issue than anything

[01:14:24] That's true. And it's in the the graphical style is different because this isn't zeno blade 3

[01:14:30] cell shaded and this one's a little bit more

[01:14:33] Not

[01:14:34] It's more

[01:14:35] realistic, but still some

[01:14:37] Somewhat anime. Yeah, because it's you know x is more uh more like sci-fi

[01:14:43] Like uh like fantasy sci-fi and then three is like just typical

[01:14:49] Zeno blade anime stuff. Yeah. Yeah, well you because we even saw toad's captain toad going this way

[01:14:55] Oh

[01:14:56] That one's great

[01:14:58] That game is so fucking good. I have the

[01:15:01] I didn't get to play that one on the wii u i haven't on the 3ds though and it's still really fucking good

[01:15:06] I love that game dude

[01:15:08] Da na na na, da na na, you know what is you know, it is still trapped peanuts movie snoopy's grand adventure

[01:15:13] That is still trapped in the wii u unfortunately

[01:15:15] fuck

[01:15:16] This episode's cancelled until you gotta go back. It's isn't that the one where it's like a shooter

[01:15:25] I don't know. No, this looks like a platform. Let's go to the platformer

[01:15:29] Because there's a peanuts game that's like a shooter kind of like star fox or pancer dragoon. That's apparently really good

[01:15:34] Oh interesting

[01:15:36] Wind waker was not wind waker

[01:15:39] Breath of the wild was released for the wii u

[01:15:41] That's the final game when I when breath of the wild came out

[01:15:44] I could not afford a switch at the time and I was not going to drop the money

[01:15:47] But I was definitely not going to wait to play new Zelda games. So I played through it first on the wii u

[01:15:52] That's awesome

[01:15:53] And it's so sad because I remember like leading up to breath of the wild them showing off all of the

[01:16:00] Gameplay integration for the wii u that's not there at all once like the launch came they took all that shit out

[01:16:07] They're like zooming in on the screen and adding like pins and I was like nope that doesn't exist

[01:16:12] But man could I have the switch users missing out?

[01:16:20] Yeah, I played through that first on wii u

[01:16:23] Yeah, there's also that uh Kirby in the rainbow curse is still trapped on there

[01:16:27] And I think it's it looks like you you draw

[01:16:30] On the wii u gamepad. Yeah, which paths for like Kirby, right? Why didn't they

[01:16:35] Bring that one over to the 3ds instead of

[01:16:39] Kirby's extra epic fucking yarn, which by the way is is still really good

[01:16:43] If you haven't played the wii version Kirby's extra epic yarn on the 3ds is really good, but super expensive canvas

[01:16:51] Yeah

[01:16:52] yeah

[01:16:54] Fucking why didn't they bring canvas curse to 3ds man like I want to play it, but I don't

[01:16:59] I don't want to

[01:17:01] Yeah, it looks like a perfect 3ds game. Let's see how much this is. Oh, it's

[01:17:05] It's only 40 bucks. I'm buying i'm gonna buy it

[01:17:08] That's not bad

[01:17:10] For the wii u? Yeah a used copy is 34 87. Yeah for the for the wii u

[01:17:14] Kirby in the rainbow curse

[01:17:16] Art academy home studio that's still trapped on there

[01:17:20] God damn god forbid

[01:17:22] Yeah, there's still there's still decent amount of games that are still trapped on the wii u the crudes

[01:17:28] For the crudes

[01:17:30] No

[01:17:34] Um

[01:17:35] I'm pretty much tapped out on my wii u stuff. I mean I guess

[01:17:39] If you can get your hands on one it's it's worth it to like to mod it and

[01:17:44] Yeah, absolutely custom firmware because it can play

[01:17:47] Yeah, every nintendo console even even the handhelds it can go

[01:17:51] All the way from of course the wii u down to the nes that it can play

[01:17:56] Every nintendo handheld uh, it's it's worth it man

[01:17:59] Yeah, I can say especially if you can like mod it and everything and you can get it for a relatively decent price

[01:18:04] I don't know what consoles are going for nowadays

[01:18:06] But if you can pick it up for a decent price then I would say do it because there's still a lot of good games on the wii u

[01:18:11] And you can play a lot of the virtual console stuff, but you can't play now which

[01:18:16] Sad yeah, sure. Oh, what the fuck?

[01:18:20] uh, the super mario 3d world deluxe which that game is is

[01:18:24] Probably my second favorite mario game of all time. Oh, I love. Yeah, so good

[01:18:29] So the console by itself is 182 complete in box

[01:18:32] 1145 new sealed 2200

[01:18:37] Holy shit, you can get

[01:18:39] The 8 gigabyte wii u for 128 the 32 for 125

[01:18:46] The mario uh maker one

[01:18:49] 211 splatoon 186 and these are fucking right. I also like in the one Jesus 50s

[01:18:56] So if you can get it for that much, I would say that's probably fine

[01:18:59] But then I mean you're still to buy games and those games are probably going to be expensive too all the good ones at least

[01:19:04] Uh, the sell the one goes for 229

[01:19:08] And the only difference between that and the regular 32 one is that the screen has the

[01:19:13] Sell the it just has yeah, it literally just has wind waker like decals around the game pad

[01:19:18] That's the that's the difference. There was no decals at all on the console itself. It was just the game pad

[01:19:22] Yeah, just a game pad. Yeah, that's what I

[01:19:25] That's what I thought

[01:19:27] God I was gonna look up the prices of some wii u games. So my game eye is all fucked up

[01:19:32] I imagine they run they run pretty expensive, especially if the consoles are running that much

[01:19:36] I know for sure devils third and game and wario are expensive as shit

[01:19:42] But yeah, man, it's

[01:19:43] We use just a really really misunderstood console if you haven't played it

[01:19:48] I I would say find someone you know that that might possibly own one and play one because uh

[01:19:53] That might change your mind. It's actually pretty good

[01:19:57] Sure sold like piss, but

[01:19:59] It's great the wii u is like a krabby patty the only people who say they don't like it have never played one

[01:20:05] Damn that is a fact

[01:20:07] I'll back that up. God damn it. You heard it here folks. That's my twitter bio now

[01:20:14] The wii u is like a krabby patty

[01:20:19] Oh

[01:20:21] Dress of anything else that you want to slap on in here before we call tonight

[01:20:26] No, I agree what erosang by play wii u games

[01:20:30] Go buy a wii u if you can afford it, but don't pay a lot of money for them because that's great. Yeah

[01:20:34] yeah, the uh

[01:20:36] Even though the games that are from the wii u that are now on the switch even though they have been optimized for switch

[01:20:41] And they play a whole lot better on switch

[01:20:44] They don't have the same charm that they had on the wii u

[01:20:48] I

[01:20:49] Even though pikmin 3 chugs at some points on the wii u. I still like that version more than the

[01:20:55] Experience. Oh, yeah. Oh, yeah. I like it more on the on the wii u and

[01:21:01] Super mario 3d world 2 and you know, uh, I love 3d world

[01:21:06] Wonderful 101

[01:21:08] Just play so much better on the wii u all these games

[01:21:12] You know yeah, it does they were creative for that and if you want to play the

[01:21:15] If you want to play like, you know the definitive edition of mass effect 3

[01:21:20] Play it on wii u

[01:21:22] If you only have a wii u

[01:21:24] There you can play mass effect 3 on it. Yeah

[01:21:27] Apparently it's not yeah

[01:21:28] It's got the best version of tech and tag tournament 2 so you might as well go buy a wii

[01:21:32] I wonder how much that's going for I'm gonna look that up real quick

[01:21:35] 38 bucks. That's not bad. Oh, yeah 40

[01:21:39] 25 this one's just disc

[01:21:42] Like between 20 and 50 bucks. That's not bad. It's pretty good. That's pretty good

[01:21:47] Yeah, well, especially if like people are saying that's like the actual best way to play that game then

[01:21:52] It's all an extra shit. Yeah. All right, so
