Nintendo Wii U GameCube controller will create more problems than solutions for Nintendo

Nintendo is making a GameCube like controller for the Wii U. This is one of Nintendo's most terrible idea as of late, the Nintendo Wii U will now have the Gamepad, the Wiimote, the pro controller and now this new controller that will reflect a lot to the design of the GameCube Controller. Could this be a step forward or bigger step back since maybe the new controllers are not really appealing to the audience like it was back at launch.

The main reason why this is a bad idea is because the Wii U is now becoming an accessory hub. This means that they're trying to encourage customers to purchase different accessories for different games but even so that's not the issue. The issue is towards Nintendo not having a main audience so these accessories will create clutter and more financial problems for the company.

Another issue I'm having with Nintendo this time, is that all this money can be focused towards developing more games or working with third-party developers to bring more games to the Wii U. Speaking of which, how do you expect for developers to react to this? Now they have to create code for this controller to provide functionality to the games they made. This will also revive an old issue Nintendo had in the past with the Wii U not being able to play GameCube titles on to gamepad. Except this time it can affect all the current games on the Wii U but maybe not affect previous GameCube titles which was probably their main intention.

Nonetheless the focus of Nintendo clearly hasn't changed, they are putting focus on other things aside from the main issue which is games. We keep hearing that they're working on titles but we don't only care about their main franchise games which is what they still don't understand. As a gamer personally I want to see more third-party support so that I know I have variety of games for the Wii U to play.

- Super Smash Bros being demoed at Best Buys and Nintendo's E3 announcements

*Purchased some memberships, now working with freelance journalist to bring news even faster to you. We however cannot disclose most of our associated sources due to terms and agreements, please enjoy our articles.

The Electronic Entertainment Expo is coming around the corner and will be taking place in Los Angeles on June 10 through June 12. Each E3 brings forth the latest in gaming as well as announcements from the largest players in the industry such as Xbox, PlayStation, and Nintendo.

However this year Nintendo is mixing things up a bit and will instead do a live-streamed press conference focused on the people in attendance. This style event will be called "Nintendo Digital Event"[clever], they say this is a new format to display their next involvements in the upcoming years. They have also stated that there would be a tournament held in the Nokia Theater in LA and live demos at their booth.

Here's the best part apparently anyone can try out the new Super Smash Bros. at their local Best Buy and this event is being called "Smash-Fest". This is not only great for those who have been waiting for the game but a great way to showcase one of the best titles that Nintendo owns for their current platform and hopefully reach new sales. As we have previously mentioned Nintendo sales have been fluctuating up and down recently so this announcement/event plus the soon to be released Mario Kart 8 bundle can really bring Nintendo some decent sales[aka customers].

- Nintendo getting desperate for sales?

*Purchased some memberships, now working with freelance journalist to bring news even faster to you. We however cannot disclose most of our associated sources due to terms and agreements, please enjoy our articles.

As many of us are aware Nintendo has been going through some pretty tough times, every time their sales go slightly up they fall even more lower in the coming weeks.

As of late, to counter their falling stocks they have two Mark Kart Bundles coming out fairly soon as well as for the first time ever "DLC passes". The DLC passes will be for the upcoming Mario Golf game for the 3DS because we all know how fun Golf is.

(Game Bundle [without console])

Many of these strategies for the company are to hopefully attract users with affordability and extras like T-shirts but the make-over that Nintendo needs is beyond that at this point. Many consoles have loads of games with DLC, so let's hope perhaps Mario Kart has DLC as well to see further support on the game which could also benefit Nintendo.

- Nintendo Announces Price Cuts?

* = This means our sources for factual evidence, that's right we purchased some memberships, now working with freelance journalist to bring news even faster to you. We however cannot disclose most of our associated sources due to te5ms and agreements, please enjoy our articles.

Beginning April 22, Nintendo will permanently cut the price on five of its stand-out 3DS games. Super Mario 3D Land, New Super Mario Bros. 2, Animal Crossing: New Leaf, Mario Kart 7 and Donkey Kong Country Returns 3D will all be $29.99, a 25 percent drop.

Whether it's related to making up the losses on the Wii U or trying to compete against Mobile Gaming, it still can't be stressed out enough that these are nonetheless amazing games. If you own a 3DS or dare we say it???.... A 2DS... and you don't own at least three of these games then you are missing out a lot! Go get them!

- Tales of Hearts is coming to the west but it's probably not the one you wanted

* = This means our sources for factual evidence, that's right we purchased some memberships, now working with freelance journalist to bring news even faster to you. We however cannot disclose most of our associated sources due to terms and agreements, please enjoy our articles.

Tales of Hearts will be coming to US according to a page GameStop accidentally released to early. Tales of Hearts is a JRPG that was originally released on the Nintendo DS in 2008 and later saw a remake titled Tales of Hearts R for the PlayStation Vita. The game centers around mainly two characters, 17 year old "Amber Hearts" and 16 year old "Shing Meteoryte" where they battle enemies known as Zerom.

While it is good news it hasn't really been clarified whether or not it's a port of the old game which financially would be convenient since it's already in multiple languages; or perhaps its Tales of Heart R which is also very likely since it already exists on the PlayStation Vita in Japan.

Many have reached out to Bandai Namco for comments but haven't received a reply.

- Dead Nation announced for PlayStation Vita coming later this April

* = This means our sources for factual evidence, that's right we purchased some memberships, now working with freelance journalist to bring news even faster to you. We however cannot disclose most of our associated sources due to terms and agreements, please enjoy our articles.

Dead Nation is a Top-Down shooter that will be heading on the PlayStation April 15, and not only is it amazing but it's coming at a steal. Many of the issues in the past with handheld games was that they come at an expensive price when one can easily find a similar version of the game on a mobile device for a much smaller value. Dead Nation is coming out for $7.99 which sounds perfect since games like Call of Duty Zombies comes at $4.99 but graphically they are not in the same level and same goes for how it plays.

The game will feature Online and Ad-Hoc co-op, and not mention global leaderboards for those hardcore gamers who like leaving their mark of skills online. This game is very alike as it's PS4 counterpart expect that the PS4 version which includes the expansion pack which will also be available on the Vita for only $3.99 which isn't a bad deal.

- Nintendo forgetting their roots of the "Super Mario Bros." series?

* = This means our sources for factual evidence, that's right we purchased some memberships, now working with freelance journalist to bring news even faster to you. We however cannot disclose most of our associated sources due to terms and agreements, please enjoy our articles.

Update: Nintendo Clarified their mistake 26 mins after and the re-edited version states it was the "Warp Whistle". However Warp Whistle and Zone are not alike which is still a slip up especially for the core games. Who ever posted it mustn't be doing just that, posting it.

Nintendo has blundered in sales, created flops in their past, and even pickpocketed monetized profits from YouTube channels but now they seem to be forgetting their roots. On Twitter today Nintendo of America tried to post a nostalgic fact about Super Mario Bros. and all seemed fine until you read it. Nintendo stated that Warp Zone was first introduced in Super Mario Bros. 3 when the most notable Warp Zone is the one in World 1-2 at the end. Pretty much everyone from the 90s has made that a fact by now in every kids-grandparents brain. However Nintendo is slipping up from all directions lately, someone might be out of a job for this, as this is a slip up to their most profiting franchise.

- Activision announced a new Transformers game, but under a different studio?

Activision and Hasbro have stepped out and announced that a brand new Transformers game is on the way, which will be timed to coincide with the release of Micheal Bay's fourth film in the series, Transformers: Age of Extinction. The game, titled Transformers: Rise of the Dark Spark, will be released for the Nintendo 3DS, PC, PlayStation 3, PlayStation 4, Wii U, Xbox 360, and Xbox One this June.

Activision has also said that Rise of the Dark Spark will also follow-up to both previous video games Transformers: War for Cybertron and Transformers: Fall of Cybertron. The game is set to feature over 40 playable characters and that it will be a third-person action-adventure game. Players will be allowed to choose between playing as Autobots and Decepticons in their fight to secure the Dark Spark.

The game has two modes that are currently known, Escalation which is basically a wave-based survival mode and Single Player which plays through the games' campaign. 

The game is being developed by Edge of Reality ( the developer of the recent Loadout game), which shifts gears with Activision since High Moon Studios isn't in charge of this game. High Moon Studios is known for bringing us the well-received Transformers: Fall of Cybertron and Transformers: War on Cybertron. They later went on to create the flop Deadpool which didn't fare as well as their previous games but it was pretty funny. After that Activision let go of over 40 High Moon employees.

Hopefully Edge of Reality can live up to the predecessors of the Transformers games and deliver another well-received title.
