@ajsadauskas @JessTheUnstill also #BlackBerry's #PlayBook #Tablet was released as a accessory screen for their Phones, which gave it "#WiiU-Effect" in terms of marketing.

  • Plus #RIM relying hard on business clients and their proprietary applianced mail systems and having big carriers upsell to business people made them look outdated & quite literally out of touch once #iPhone went mainstream.

I mean, the hardware was never their problem and #SMS-Typists swear by their #BlackberryCurve's #keyboard but BlackBerry's #toolchain - just like #SymbianOS's - was just hideous to the point that devs like @fuchsiii didn't even want to try making #Apps for those devices.

  • Unlike #Mozilla fucking up #FirefoxOS by refusing to sell devices to #developers, by the time RIM & #Nokia came from their high horses, their market shares had been squeezed into mere "rounding errors" by #iOS and #Android as it was way cheaper and easier to get #Apps developed, tested, sold, bought and use them than on their devices.

#Sony even released some #Symbian #S60 devices but since they didn't have the same signing keys, one couldn't even #sideload apps (not to mention they didn't had the #OviStore on those either!)...

Ever so often reminder. If you are one of the dozens of us that owns a functioning #WiiU, charge and boot your system occasionally.

Nobody wants to find their little dual screen friend bricked from disuse.

Also, enjoy that menu music while you’re at it. 😌🎶

Surprise mid-week release today!
Ok, maybe not so surprising, as I hinted at it yesterday, but still. 😅

As 14 years ago today is exactly the day that the 3DS released in Europe, so I wanted to release one more ONM issue with more coverage.

So here is the Official Nintendo Magazine 113 - November 2014 (UK)

Received #XenobladeChroniclesX #NintendoSwitch. Before starting a bit (I don’t plan to play a lot these weeks), I dug into my #Miiverse archives to see how my character looks like on #WiiU, and found a low-res pic of him, but have no idea of his name. 🕳️

I published it on Miiverse on 7 December 2015 with this comment:

“My Xenoblade journey starts with a deception: not enough choices during character creation. Here's my best attempt after an hour. Note it's the first time I create a black male.”
