Yeah I loved playing Wind Waker HD with the gamepad. Was very immersive when sailing and using a map in a dungeon. On the fly item management too. Twilight Princess HD’s gamepad functionality was great too, but I couldve probably used my pro controller and enjoyed it just as much. Wind Waker HD needs the gamepad IMO.
@Grima the Fell Dragon Nintendo's fault, you can't ask the consumer to do extra research for a product they don't know if they want or understand what it is, it's Nintendo's job to make sure their product makes sense and to make its selling points obvious.

The reason why Persona Q was exclusive to 3DS was because it's a crossover between Persona and Etrian Odyssey, and the Etrian Odyssey games were only released on DS/3DS because they're based on dual-screen functionality
Persona Q2 was done so late into the 3DS' life that it never got dubbed, and it was barely released here in the UK, I haven't seen a single copy of the game.
A lot of games made use of DS and 3DS in such unique ways because of the dual screens they had. I honestly found that so exciting back then, even visual novels like 999, Ghost Trick used two screens for dual narrative. Rhythm games had score/story and actual beat maps on other screen, It was such a unique console.
It was also really great for strategy games. Strategy games and strategy RPG's always are kind of worse on console simply because sticks aren't as fast or accurate as a mouse. But the touch-pad helted that tremendously. Fire Emblem, advance wars, yugioh and other such games just fit perfectly. Having the bottom we clear facts and the top be exciting angles kind of gives you the best of both.
The DS release of 999 had QoL issues, but man, the moment you realize exactly why it's on the ds and how the gameplay's presentation changes to reflect that plot point was stellar; just can't be captured by a port.
The dual screens of the DS and 3DS really did allow for such unique and interesting game design that I don’t think will ever be replicated on normal consoles
You know one i always thought would fit really well that im sad may never get made? A Mole Mania game for the DS think about it, the Top Screen would have the aboveground, and the Touch Screen would have the underground

Wii U is my favorite console! Although it's not the best, it had a lot of care put into it and I spent more hours playing it than all of my other consoles combined.
So the thing with spinoffs being on other consoles is due to contract obligations and IP rights. Destiny 2 was on PC and XBOX, but for a time but they still had to pay lip service to Sony due to obligations they had (i.e exclusive content). This sort of obligation kind of works the same way at the franchise level. Like sure, you might get Persona Strikers on Xbox, but if you want the full Persona experience, you're gonna have to buy a Playstation. That's why it 'works'. ...It also made me realize you should NEVER make a deal with Sony.
The WiiU was one of the best concepts with the worst support. Nintendo was desperate to get new 3rd party titles on there. When I was a freshman I applied for their developer program and got in within a day with no questions asked and given the Unity WiiU api. I didn't do too much since it cost like 1200 dollars for a dev kit but it was cool to see how unreal and unity games communicated with the system.
This reminds of an idea I had for a game in a universe where Nintendo kept Rare. It's a Kazooie only spin-off game of Banjo-Kazooie for the Wii that kinda worked like a top down twin stick shooter. You'd move Kazooie with the Nunchuck and aim 'n' shoot different types of eggs with the Wiimote.
Sounds cool. Kind of reminds me of the Sparx levels in Spyro but different enough Kazooie abilities or like the Banjo first person shooter moments (never played or know the context but always looked cool) using Kazooie but top down/isometric.
The thing is, the switch could not succeed where the three Nintendo consoles before it excelled. Because I couldn't play Legend of Zelda Windwaker on switch, while I could on gamecube, wii, and wii u.
i’ve always seen on rails shooters as arcade games, but like modern ones that you see in bowling alleys or shopping malls because if you’ve been to game works or Dave and Buster, some of the funnest games are on rail shooters
Same. Though playing The Club a more arcade level design and enemy AI but modern controlling shooter (published by Sega but made by the team that made Project Gotham Racing a bunch of arcade racer Devs) it is always interesting seeing modern and arcade elements cross over sometimes but whether to see them as arcade or not hmm. I mean later Burnout games don't have the timer but the old ones are straight up arcade with the timers. So modern arcade games it's a wonder sometimes. It's why I don't question the Dead Space Extraction or Medal of Honor Heroes 2 (arcade light gun style mode) being more arcade focused or a mode for arcade aspects to suit the Wiimote as a rail shooter/light gun shooter. I think Tank Tank Tank is a fair arcade game but on Wii U and didn't do much with the Gamepad really. It's fine but for the multiplayer the singleplayer the second screen isn't worth it and the tilting of gyro is left and right not up or down when your a tank so why no up and down aim.

Kinect or big controller the big controller makes more sense then Kinect to try and change that I think but Capcom tried Scott could do this video type again and add Steel Battalion or other games, maybe but as he only did the Kinect one and not the OG Xbox version might have to wait on that one.
Just minus the parallax barrier... Oh damn, imagine if the Wii U's tablet controller utilized that technology?! Instead of only 12 people buying it, a whole 14 or even 15 people would have bought it!
I disagree. There was just no benefit to owning a wii over any other console. I mean, there were some good first party games, but no must have game until breath of the wild. And by that time the switch was out.
Not misunderstood. Misused. Gamecube/GBA link cable, DS, 3DS: exist and justified dual-screen gaming. Nintendo with the Wii U: What the heck am I supposed to do with this newfangled second screen?
When Wii U was announced, one of the first things they showed off was 5-player asymmetrical gameplay. One on the gamepad overlooking the whole stage, and the other four playing on the stage. - What annoys me is that they didn't do 5-player symmetrical gameplay. Like playing Mario Kart where you have 4 players on the TV and the 5th on the gamepad.
I think it would have been too constraining on the hardware to do 5 player Mario Kart. It could barely handle 4 people. However, I cannot believe they screwed up NSMBU multiplayer by relegating the gamepad to player "assistance".
Game & Wario had a few game modes that did, such as the Fruit game mode. One person was a thief that wandered around a dimly-lit crowded area stealing fruit, and the the others watched the TV to guess who the thief was. The thief was on the gamepad and had perfect vision.
I've never played an FPS on a Wiimote that really felt right, because I always figured something like that would actually be the superior control format for the genre. If for no other fact that the fact you don't have to invert it. Inverters, non-inverters, and whicheverers can all use the Wiimote intuitively as an FPS controller.
at the end, Scott's right. there was a lot of missed potential for the Wii U. Even though it was a flawed product to begin with (big stupid controller, can't reassign gamepads to different controllers, etc.) it was heavily under utilized. Batman arkham City was the game that I think did the most with the Wii U gamepad, and really showed off it's potential. But, there was still potential for it to not be a failure if Nintendo just did things right.
I just got a Wii u from my friend today. I've been wanting one for so long. The gamepad is a lot bigger than I thought and the Wii u it's self is so heavy compared to the original wii
@@JayanthSahasranamamula I once had to make a greasy patty - no bun no nothing just a greasy patty. I deep fried it and watched the woman eat it with her hands. That's the weirdest for me lol
Everyone's talking about Scott talking about the Wii U and I'm just sitting here trying to put in a Little Caesars order for a deep dish olive-only pizza
I literally just had some little caesars before watching this. I like olives and I have even had pizza with olive oil rather than sauce, but I'd say that pizza would be better with cheese. It's just not pizza without cheese in my opinion. Sure olives and bread are fine when alone together, but cheese .. I cannot forsake my love cheese.
3:52 They ended up doing this for the 3DS edition of Minecraft, the bottom screen showed a map and your inventory, while the top screen showed your health, hunger, and armor bars. Overall probably the coolest version of Minecraft even if it’s outdated compared to modern MC.
Wow, it's almost like the WiiU was a fantastic console with limitless potential, but it never got to show that because people declared it dead on arrival.
Wanna here about a console that has had the most missed potential for games that would've fit perfectly? Well then, Wii have the perfect console for U.
I made a list of missed opportunities for the Wii U. Here: * Mario Paint/Artist sequel and/or remake that uses touch screen * Four Swords Adventures port/remake/sequel that uses online with voice chat and 3DS connectivity * Pokémon Snap Wii U that has a panoramic view using the Gamepad * Animal Crossing that features all menu information on the bottom screen while, making for a the most comfortable Animal Crossing experience on a home console * Kid Icarus Uprising port/remake that uses the touch screen, the wii pointer and nunchuck, dual analog, and maybe 3DS as controller options * Metroid Prime that features a first person view on the TV and 3rd person on Gamepad and the ability to swap views * Wario Ware that not only uses the Gamepad’s unique touch, gyro, buttons, asymmetric TV view, camera(?), and microphone features, but can sometimes combine it with the Wii remote * A Zelda game similar to Phantom Hourglass and/or Spirit Tracks that’s either a remake or a sequel with similar gameplay elements
I thought Scott was gonna point it out when Fever was on screen, but. Why the absolute frick wasn't Rhythm Heaven Megamix ported?! It would have been a great cross-platform release with the 3DS, and taking advantage of the gamepad would be making a no visuals mode which is *just* the gamepad that shows your timing and skill stars. It would be a great way to practice no visual gameplay! And not to mention that it would be a fantastic family game, it already *has* competitive multiplayer, being able to play on one console would make the whole "Get your family and friends into music!" shtick fantastic!
I remember seeing the idea of a tabletop RPG exclusive to Wii U, where the Dungeon Master sees all their hidden knowledge and choices on the Gamepad, and the party plays on the TV. What a shame...

Mr. Woz, I'm looking at a Z here, explain yourself.
He's shapeblind
Well a Z is the shape of a taffy maker and those go in circles so really it's not a stretch.
what do you mean? The Zircle is complete!
The Zirkel is complete.

When Wii U was announced, one of the first things they showed off was 5-player asymmetrical gameplay. One on the gamepad overlooking the whole stage, and the other four playing on the stage. - What annoys me is that they didn't do 5-player symmetrical gameplay. Like playing Mario Kart where you have 4 players on the TV and the 5th on the gamepad.
Closest thing I can think of is some of the Nintendo Land games tbh.
I think it would have been too constraining on the hardware to do 5 player Mario Kart. It could barely handle 4 people. However, I cannot believe they screwed up NSMBU multiplayer by relegating the gamepad to player "assistance".
I think Sonic & All-Star Racing Transformed let you do 5 player races, with one of them on the gamepad.
Game & Wario had a few game modes that did, such as the Fruit game mode. One person was a thief that wandered around a dimly-lit crowded area stealing fruit, and the the others watched the TV to guess who the thief was. The thief was on the gamepad and had perfect vision.
I liked 5 player Ray Man Legends and 5 player New Super Mario Bros U/Luigi U.
To sum this episode up, Scott had better ideas for the Wii U than Nintendo.
Rhythm heaven on switch would be a good fit with the rumble helping more with the feel of the games, like you're actually playing them.

I've never played an FPS on a Wiimote that really felt right, because I always figured something like that would actually be the superior control format for the genre. If for no other fact that the fact you don't have to invert it. Inverters, non-inverters, and whicheverers can all use the Wiimote intuitively as an FPS controller.
1:22 the camera cutting to Scott's face for that specific line is very AVGN-esque, good video
Oh wow, you're absolutely right
I was thinking the same thing
never seen a camera before?...

I’m so glad this man is trending so well. He deserves it greatly, and I am so glad it’s happening.
at the end, Scott's right. there was a lot of missed potential for the Wii U. Even though it was a flawed product to begin with (big stupid controller, can't reassign gamepads to different controllers, etc.) it was heavily under utilized. Batman arkham City was the game that I think did the most with the Wii U gamepad, and really showed off it's potential. But, there was still potential for it to not be a failure if Nintendo just did things right.
Should've renamed this "Scott tries to justify the Wii U's existence"
nah mate, the Wii U is great, no need to justify
@@trigger_core tru dat!
Nintendo land by itself justified the existence of the Wii U
@@largeboi4678 YEES OH MY GOD, so many good memories on nintendo land
@@trigger_core That legend of Zelda minigame and that one where you ate fruit were pretty badass
This entire video is just Scott proclaiming his love for the Wii U.
I just got a Wii u from my friend today. I've been wanting one for so long. The gamepad is a lot bigger than I thought and the Wii u it's self is so heavy compared to the original wii
Enjoy man! Miss mine a whole lot...
Scott, you've forgot the worst part about Minecraft for Wii U:
In order to do multiplayer, you HAVE TO DISABLE THE GAMEPAD SCREEN
scott is a perfect fit for the wii u. that’s why he has 7.

Imagine being the person that had to make a deep dish pizza with no cheese, no sauce, and extra olives lol

Everyone's talking about Scott talking about the Wii U and I'm just sitting here trying to put in a Little Caesars order for a deep dish olive-only pizza
gross.
I literally just had some little caesars before watching this.
I like olives and I have even had pizza with olive oil rather than sauce, but I'd say that pizza would be better with cheese. It's just not pizza without cheese in my opinion. Sure olives and bread are fine when alone together, but cheese .. I cannot forsake my love cheese.
Isn’t that just Focaccia?
sounds like heaven
@@JamesLawner in Italy focaccia is basically bread.
11:33 This aged well didn't it?
Well seems like Atust decided "Fuck Perfect Fit, the franchise is now multiplatform"
The longest commercial for the wii u that I've ever seen
Perfect fit: "Scott The Woz" and "literally anything and everything"
thats more than 7!
Numerous people have posted pictures of themselves in Scott's room. Based on this hiatus from posting, I'm thinking Scott has something big planned.
3:52 They ended up doing this for the 3DS edition of Minecraft, the bottom screen showed a map and your inventory, while the top screen showed your health, hunger, and armor bars. Overall probably the coolest version of Minecraft even if it’s outdated compared to modern MC.
The top half of my phone never felt this good.

"Why the WiiU is actually okay in 19 minutes or less"
Wow, it's almost like the WiiU was a fantastic console with limitless potential, but it never got to show that because people declared it dead on arrival.
Yep
1:42 Scott, why do you keep teasing me like this? XD
Is Scott growing a beard!? NO! He's supposed to look like a seven year old!
You must be using a microscope to see those hairs

Wanna here about a console that has had the most missed potential for games that would've fit perfectly? Well then, Wii have the perfect console for U.
I made a list of missed opportunities for the Wii U. Here:
* Mario Paint/Artist sequel and/or remake that uses touch screen
* Four Swords Adventures port/remake/sequel that uses online with voice chat and 3DS connectivity
* Pokémon Snap Wii U that has a panoramic view using the Gamepad
* Animal Crossing that features all menu information on the bottom screen while, making for a the most comfortable Animal Crossing experience on a home console
* Kid Icarus Uprising port/remake that uses the touch screen, the wii pointer and nunchuck, dual analog, and maybe 3DS as controller options
* Metroid Prime that features a first person view on the TV and 3rd person on Gamepad and the ability to swap views
* Wario Ware that not only uses the Gamepad’s unique touch, gyro, buttons, asymmetric TV view, camera(?), and microphone features, but can sometimes combine it with the Wii remote
* A Zelda game similar to Phantom Hourglass and/or Spirit Tracks that’s either a remake or a sequel with similar gameplay elements
**Blinks** *:)*
I thought Scott was gonna point it out when Fever was on screen, but.
Why the absolute frick wasn't Rhythm Heaven Megamix ported?! It would have been a great cross-platform release with the 3DS, and taking advantage of the gamepad would be making a no visuals mode which is *just* the gamepad that shows your timing and skill stars. It would be a great way to practice no visual gameplay! And not to mention that it would be a fantastic family game, it already *has* competitive multiplayer, being able to play on one console would make the whole "Get your family and friends into music!" shtick fantastic!
you mean the vita
hear*
Scott is that facial hair
As someone who's been watching Scott since he was below 100k subs... WHEN THE HELL DID HE GET 1.5 MILLION?!!
Congratulations, Scott. You deserve it.

Alternate title: Scott simps for the wii u for 18 minutes straight.
LMAO
Please Wii U on me.
Oh, please. For all the shit the Wii U gets it's refreshing to hear someone talk positively about the console
@@monroevian imo it was good in a lot of aspects
@@AtomicOwl yeah I feel like Scott is the only RUclipsr that will say anything good about it
I remember seeing the idea of a tabletop RPG exclusive to Wii U, where the Dungeon Master sees all their hidden knowledge and choices on the Gamepad, and the party plays on the TV. What a shame...
"Yeah, Boogie!" that one deadpan deliver just got me hard
You're getting amazing at everything you do in your videos, Scott.
