Dusted off my old Wii U to show my kid some Mario games. It is an absolute terrible console but it does have a couple of decent games - most of which have been ported to Switch but I ain't shelling out another £40 for a game I already own.
I ended up replaying a bit of BOTW and it really is one of the best games ever made. Only got up to the Sheikah village and I am not sure whether to carry on or put it down now and wait for TOTK as the map is the same

I liked the WiiU as a console tbh. The gamepad was comfortable, so was the pro controller. The UI was very straightforward and easy to navigate. Quick too compared to the PS3/360.
Hardware wise, it was small and quiet. The gamepad was absolutely stupid though. Should’ve been an accessory instead of a forced gimmick. Though the latency was surprisingly good for playing on it from what I remember.
First party games that I played were all good too. I’m glad almost all of them have been ported over to the Switch and got the second chance they deserved. Tropical Freeze and MK8 are incredible
EA with two near 90 games in 2023 already

By Laboured Go To PostThis is what peak gaming looks like.
By Laboured Go To PostSheeeeeeeiiiiit
By Kibner Go To PostThey will have to prove their software is quality before I give it a look, tbh.I’m concerned that Asus’ own software will be bad based on Asus Armoury Crate being dreadful on a laptop.
I’m more concerned that the battery is gonna last less than an hour at 35w, and at 15w I would assume the jump to 1080p will eat most of the performance advantage it has over the Steam Deck.
I hope it does well though. I’d love to see Windows cater towards handheld PCs to make it a more user friendly experience.
These devs from the Souls games must crunch a lot. They keep delivering a lot of games in small period of times. And for those that enjoy (I don't), those games are usually great.
By s y Go To PostThought ac6 would look betterIt's cross-gen.
That trailer tickles the parts of my brain that remember being a 13-year-old. But my current self recognizes that I’d now be complete shit at AC.

By jjasper Go To PostOof, about $200 more than I hoped for
I am intrigued. Wonder how the battery is
By reilo Go To PostOof, about $200 more than I hoped for
I mean it's about $300 less than I was expecting lol.
Like $50 more than the top end Steam Deck right?
By all accounts, the Z1 Extreme would be to top end ROG too, I'd guess they'll release a cheaper Z1 model too

By Crusher Go To PostAC6 makes me yern for ZoE 3, but it looks dope.Would be lit to finally have a good ZoE game I agree
By Laboured Go To Post
More cross gen games let it die ffs
By reilo Go To PostOof, about $200 more than I hoped for
It’s a lot cheaper than I anticipated, because Asus. Still well over what I’d pay for a handheld console/PC though. Even the base model Steam Deck at £350 feels too much considering how close it is to the digital PS5 and how much cheaper a Series S is.
It’s been a great device for me, and fulfills the niche well. It’s just not a great deal of performance for the money compared to the consoles.
By data Go To PostMoment of silence for uk slaent
The CMA ruled against the deal over concerns not about Call of Duty or console exclusivity, but mainly about cloud gaming. Smith said the CMA's argument came from a "flawed and faulty understanding of the market," and that it's based on a "potential concern" instead of a real one.
Smith said the cloud gaming market in the UK right now is "so small," adding that Microsoft's server network in the UK doesn't allow for more than 5,000 concurrent users.
"And so for regulators to step in and seek to torpedo a $68 billion global transaction out of a concern about a part of the business that is so small and to reject so many proposals to try to address their concerns, I think it leaves people worried and it leaves people thinking that actually, the process in Brussels worked far better than what we're now addressing in London," he said.
I mean…he’s not wrong
The entire time they (and Sony) were focused on Call of Duty, and then at the last minute, they focus on cloud?
By Crusher Go To PostAC6 makes me yern for ZoE 3, but it looks dope.Maybe this is how we get it
Jesus it keeps getting better. A stagger mechanic in AC sounds like the perfect counterbalance to some of the weight/armor/burst shenanigans in the predecessors
By Yurtlicious Go To Post@KibnerAye! I saw that and got excited but then saw the prices and checked out. lol
I split the difference in those two editions to buy myself this a few years ago: http://dalong.net/reviews/kotobukiya/z40/z40_p.htm
e: of course, this was a kit that I had to build myself and the AC thing is a statue, so two different kinds of models. but, still.

By Yurtlicious Go To PostThat looks fucking dope 😳It is one of my favorite hobby purchases ever! Took me a couple hundred hours to build it, though. lol
I was pretty meticulous with cleaning all the sprues and there was so much panel lining that it took forever. well over 2,000 pieces, iirc.
I basically worked on it for about 8 hours a week over the course of a full year.
