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.

- Deep Look into Nintendo's Mario Kart 8, could this be Nintendo's next big hit?

As Mario kart 8's tracks go live we learn more about what Nintendo is actually trying to do now.

Nintendo has recently been trying to promote their latest game by discussing and showing the tracks from Mario kart 8. Since they're not planning to do any big announcements during E3 this year they're trying to reach their audience in a different way. One of these ways is that they're promoting both Mario kart 8 as previously stated and they're trying to promote Super Smash Brothers for Wii U and 3DS. Along with showing the roster of characters that will be included in the new Super Smash Bros, they're also showing the new Mario Kart 8 tracks and songs that will accompany them. They not only claimed but showed and proved that most of the songs (if not all) were recorded live.

In most cases Games simply show what the game is about but Nintendo's trying to show every angle of one of their top games in order to encourage customers to buy it. This is where Nintendo can probably shine the best because as of late they haven't been bring in good sales, so perhaps now they can prove to their shareholders that even their top games can still bring in some good revenue.

Now let's talk about Mario Kart 8, Mario kart 8 so far looks extremely well polished at any angle and the way the stages are designed and how they look clearly show that this is the next iteration of the Mario kart series. During Nintendo Direct they showed many of the tracks and many of them have very high textures and also have many 3-D objects running all at the same time aside from just the racers. Mario kart 8 is definitely showing the power that Wii U has over the original Nintendo Wii. They also have to sort of make up for it because the Nintendo Wii U isn't backwards compatible with the GameCube anymore.

Nonetheless Nintendo can hopefully still prove that their games can be AAA quality to date like they were in the past. It also seems that whether it's in the music, in the design, or in Game Concepts; Nintendo can still put well polished games out there standing aside next to games like Halo and Call of Duty which don't bring family-friendly entertainment.
