The Console Return to Production in the United States
In Europe, will we be entitled to a return from the NES Mini? The question is asked … But for now, Satoru Shibata , CEO of Nintendo Europe was present in Paris at the presentation of Nintendo Switch on Friday, seems to have made statements to that effect . Be that as it may, it would be surprising if production would not be revived for the European market. Business to follow, so … And you can be sure that Gaming Stories with Coca-Cola will keep you informed of any change of situation. Last week, you talked drafting of the Nintendo NES Classic Mini and a retro Game Boy in preparation (but not signed by Nintendo). Do you already have your console?

January 13 will remain an important date for Nintendo. After the commercial failure of the Wii U, the Japanese brand launched its reconquest this Friday. With the Switch, Nintendo actually reconnects with success. To do this, Mario’s dad did not skimp on the means. Its new console has been the subject of a teasing for several months. The conference this weekend was also the occasion for the Japanese to invite many fans to discover his Switch, in preview. Ordinary people could test it in France, this weekend at the Grand Palais . But to ensure the success of its console, Nintendo will not compare to the heavyweights of the market. The Switch indeed opts for a very different positioning of the Playstation 4 Pro . Chronic geek meltyStyle decrypts the announcement of the week.

The Nintendo Switch is not a powerful console, and is not intended to be. In recent months, Sony and Microsoft are racing to 4K and “that will have the biggest” . Playstation 4 Pro and the next Xbox Scorpio, which would not be ready for E3 , are illustrations of this strategy. At the same time, the Nintendo Switch is equipped with features of another time. With a 720p display and a Nvidia Tegra processor, the console is far from the market leaders. This technical sheet is felt in the first gripes, where slowness appeared. But power, Nintendo does not want it for its Switch.

Fun is the goal of the Nintendo Switch
Fun, conviviality and exchange are the watchwords of the strategy of the Japanese manufacturer to sell its Switch millions. Its console is not aimed at the picky gamers who live for the game. It is aimed at players who wish to have a good time together, thanks to video games. During the conference and testing, the Japanese brand tried to convey these values. The games offered, the colors of the console and the visuals testify to the strategy adopted by the company. In other words, Nintendo wants to recreate the atmosphere of the original Wii with the new Switch, already imitated by a Chinese manufacturer . Hopefully the strategy is winning. Convinced by the Nintendo Switch?

Everything has been said or almost about the Nintendo Switch. At J-3 of his presentation, the Japanese brand seems to have left nothing to chance. And while the French division of Nintendo has revised the interface of its website for the event , we finally know a little more about the price of this console. At last, it will be marketed at the same price as the Nintendo 3DS to its output . Better still, it would cost less than Nvidia Shield TV. And meltyStyle tells you more about this Nikkei prediction.

The Nintedo Switch could cost 250 euros, in Europe!
Nikkei gave an estimate of the price of the Nintendo Switch in Japan. And no, it’s not a leak from Nintendo. The information site estimates that the Switch will be marketed 25,000 yen, a little more than 200 euros. Given the customs taxes, the price of the hybrid from Nintendo could reach 250 euros in Europe , supporting the rumors around the console. Pending more information, discovers that Chinese manufacturer who dared to copy Nintendo Switch, before its presentation to the big day!

Surely the console of the year that you will be asked (or that you want to see arrive at the foot of the tree). Do not lie, many people already have the console in France and if you want to play online with friends, the ideal is still to have the same console they . While she already has good bookshop game with very good excluded (Uncharted 4, The Last of Us, Bloodborne, The Last Guardian …), Sony announced that the coming years would be fabulous with upcoming releases of God of War, Horizon Zero Down, the Last of Us 2, Crash Bandicoot N’Sane Trilogy (excluding temporary?), Days Gone, Uncharted the Lost Legacy and many more … If you want to dive for the first time in the World of virtual reality, the PS4 also represents a very good choice, since it only now has a VR headset. So and by choosing the PS4 Slim pack at 260 euros and often with a game offered, you have the assurance of getting what you pay for! Slim pack 1 TB to 350 euros leaves us skeptical, because its ability to highest hard drive does not justify a price differential as high with its 500GB … while also providing purchasing the Pro version if you have a 4K TV or if you want to buy it soon . Without these reasons, the purchase of the Pro in spite of the Slim version is not really justified, although some noises of corridors say that the games will be more and more optimized for this one. Any player who wants to have fun on the latest games of the moment as well as on the excluded futures that risk sending heavy.

The Xbox One S from Microsoft
The direct competitor of the PS4 still has a say! Indeed behind and with the arrival of the Xbox One S attractively designed, it is the only console that allows to play Blu Ray 4K (with Sony technology, a straw!). On the other hand and contrary to the PS4 Pro, this one does not allow to play with such a resolution. It is also slightly less powerful, but in return, the promotions on the console are very regular, so it is easy to get one for a price generally lower than that of the console of Sony. We will report good excluded such as Gears of Wars 4, Recore, Forza Horizon and Dead Rising 4 . But that’s not all, obviously it’s a matter of habit, but we find that the Xbox controller One is much better than the Sony Dualshock 4 . However, if you already have a gaming PC, the Xbox One will not be of any use to you since most games excluding Xbox One S are also available on Windows 10. Thus, we advise the console to Its more pleasant controller as well as for the tighter budgets that will surely find their happiness with a good promo.
Wii U Generally found price: 270 euros (32 GB)

PS4 Slim / Pro, Xbox One S and Wii U, which one to choose?
No it’s not a joke … Indeed in comparison to the 500 see 1 TB of the PS4 and the Xbox One, the 32 GB of the Wii U seem laughable. Know that you can extend this storage by an external hard drive, which will be indispensable if you want to acquire a large number of games in a dematerialized way. Also, the strong point of the Wii U and this will make a huge difference with the competition is that one receives this console games Nintendo , which makes it one of the best consoles for its exclusives. We think of Mario Kart 8, Super Smash Bros., Splatoon, The Legend of Zelda: The Wind Waker HD, New Super Mario Bros., Bayonetta 2 and The Legend of Zelda Breath of the Wild . These games represent so many reasons to say that the Wii U is the console to have par excellence. Only and we will not stop there, it must be said that technically, the Wii U has nothing to do with the PS4 and the Xbox One. The target audience is not really the same, and if the console has the advantage of accepting the various accessories of the Wii, the Gamepad is not very ergonomic, so we must think about buying also the Wii U Pro Controller (Which on the way to an autonomy of 80 hours per charge!). As you may know, the Nintendo Switch, next home console to replace the Wii U will be presented on 13 January . It will surely be entitled to several remakes of games already released on the Wii U … It is therefore only advisable to wait for the presentation of the Switch, or if not a sharp drop in price, to obtain the Wii U.
Here, it is hoped that with all that, you will see more clearly in the universe of consoles of living room. Feel free to comment on what console you will take for Christmas! Of course we have not forgotten the Nintendo 3DS why we are preparing a comparison between the different versions of the Nintendo handheld. Which console will you have for Christmas?

Well OK on this one then we confess, we have not been great foresight. Indeed, we had forgotten that the Famicom, the equivalent of the NES was stocked with 2 controllers directly while the Europeans were going to be penalized, as usual what. As the pack of the NES Classic Mini we tested here comes with a single lever, you will get a new one for only 10 euros … Or, but that’s besides the console as well as the famous controller are in shortage absolutely everywhere and therefore to play both the console is dead.

The Wii Classic Controller is also compatible
Or so we thought at the base, but ultimately, there is another solution! Indeed and as you may have already noticed, the connection of the levers of the NES Classic Mini is identical to the additional device port of the Wii Remote. Therefore, the classical and classic controllers of the Wii Pro are compatible with the mini NES . Better yet, the Home button they can also serve Reset button , which prevents you to rise to reach the console button every time you want to change the game! No problem to play 2 while waiting to buy a new NES controller so. Do you still have these Wii controllers?
