How did you get the projects to run in retail console? or are you using devkits?
@@juanKme homebrew maybe?
Please do more with the beat saber clone
@@crieo3608 well... the thing is that I've tried several GBAtemp forums and "tutorials" but still get the same error. I wonder if there is some encoding/decoding/config needed for it to work.
Can we play this :D
Whaaaat! Please continue on that Beat Saber clone, I love this!
Thanks, I definitely want to! If you ever want to playtest just let me know- it looks like you’re pretty good at Beat Saber ;)
Hey tempex!
What about on switch with a headset kind like the ps vita and us joycons as controllers that would be awesome
@@PolyMars can u give a download link
Hey u
I like how you utilized the console more that most devs
Definitely want to see more of that Beat Saber clone once its expanded upon.
Agreed!
Same, I have a Wii u and would love to play that
Me too
Yep... definitely share how we can all get it once completed.
Yep pls do thay
Please do more love this im a big fan of the wii U’s unique ways to play
Honestly I'd say it was one of the most underrated :/
It's sad that the Unity exporter for Wii U isn't available anymore. I'm glad you were able to make some good use of it before it was taken down!
why did they it down?
@@PokeKyancause it is an old console and nintendo are focusing more on switch
It was taken down ? Why ?
Its archived
@@that-one-Doctor-called-critter I recently learned that! I'm glad it is!
The Wii U is my all-time favorite game console from Nintendo and I want to be a game developer someday. This video just inspired me to try to pursue that a little more now. I have a lot of ideas for the games that I want to make, but I'm still trying to get drawing down.
By the way, those were some nice prototypes and I glad they turned out well for ya.
I've always been wanting to make games, and I used to spend time thinking of ideas. I pursued it, and am trying to learn unity. I know this comment is 10 months old, but go ahead and start learning! The sooner you learn to make games, the more time you have to improve your skills. Good luck!
@@mystictortoise5404 how's it going bro
Try to mod your console pretty easy I've also modded a wii
4:10 that looks like the wanted Minigame from New Super Mario Bros. and Super Mario 64 DS
I know right, it's funny because if you look at the colors it's the same too Luigi, wario and Mario
If i'm not mistaken that's what it was inspired by
@@BnanaDuk It is.
He made a video on making that game
But now you want them dead
3:25. So THATS the game mom and dad play when I'm sleeping. Thx
@ItsJoshYx シ Cringe

I KNEW I WAS GONNA FIND ONE OF THESE
They play donkey metronome 2.0? Better break into their house and leak it onto the internet anonymously through 4chan.
@@cappyo no u
imagine looking around you and just seeing this flying at you '_'
Really cool idea to make prototypes using the Wii U's features! I feel like most games on the Wii U back then didn't use its unique controls in meaningful ways. Kind of sad as they sure had a lot of potential.
If only Nintendo opened their product to full open source utilization!
@@thegametent that's not the problem...
Didn't even know you could do this with the Wii U! Maybe I'll have to dig mine up sometime...
How could you put it away?
@@thegametent The Wii U doesn't have many great games that's why.
@@powerofthec5908 Wouldn't it be great if we could just... change that?
If the games are not great then why are 90% of Nintendo games in the Switch are Wii U ports?
@@TheFlumeUnplugged they ported %90 of the good games :\
Omg, I always dreamed of a basic flatscreen beatsaber port using motion controlls. Cheers to you.
my parents must really be loving "clap to jump," they are even playing it in their room
Wow! these demos are really polished. I like the concept for this channel. Subscribing!
Thanks! I’m glad you liked the video :)
TH-cam needs more content like this!
I could see that clap to jump game be turned into a very cool rhythm game
This is really cool
I never knew you could make games on Wii U without the expensive SDK! I'll definitely have to try something like this at some point
That's absolutely incredible PolyMars. You are very very creative
Adding music and making the stage sync to the music to the clap to jump game would be a pretty cool indie rhythm game Idea
Just came across your channel and your content is awesome! I wish I spent time in high school and college developing cool stuff like this outside of my boring coursework. Whelp, guess I have the opportunity to do it still now after work and on weekends! Your content is really awesome and super inspiring, keep the good stuff up, dude!
I absolutely love this!
HOLY FRICK THIS IS LEGIT TALENT!! 👏👏
We need more
Indie games out there that get people interested in the wii u
Gamepad
This is pretty awesome
nice work!
That’s fucking awesome bro! Great job! I think I might look into this now seeing as how easy it is to get a license to develop on the Wii U.
I love the Beat Saber and the Pointer Shooter, these are nice games it would be nice if you could develop them further
The clapping platformer reminds me of Donkey Kong Jungle Beat.
Sooo impressive! What a channel!
I think it's really cool how you are making games for older consoles
damn this is all so cool
Omg! This is amazing. I want to do this
You should make a WarioWare type game for a system. You're really good at coming up with unique gameplay ideas that lend themselves nicely to mini games. I could see you making the Switch version
Nice work!
This FREAKING madlad
you are a really great dev
I know I'm a year late, but I too, would love to see a finished version of the beat Saber "clone"
Really cool!!
Hell yeah! I would love to see what you can make with the 3ds. You probably don’t have to get an official dev kit for it.
Yeah, with homebrew on the 3ds you can make your console run dev mode stuff
Woooow the games are cool!
Mom, can we get *Beat Saber*?
No, we have *Beat Saber* at home.
*Beat Saber* at home: 6:00
For the beat saber clone, I suggest that you make the sabers go a bit farther away from the pivot point so it looks and feels a lot more smoother
The fact he used bensound's funny song for the shooter just makes it so many times better
That's a really cool video, it's a shame they never used Wii U full potential. I used to imagine lots of cool possibilities for Wii U games. There's something I'd like to see you give a try on these Wii U ecperiments: assymetric multiplayer
You are amazing!
I'm actually really super surprised at how responsive the microphone is. It's almost automatic from clap to jump that's insane computing speed. It has to hear the noise, see that a noise means to do something, then make that something happen. It does all that in less than a second that's just crazy. Technology is so incredible these days..
Really wish that Wii U homebrew was more widespread.
@Walther Penne Christ, all he said is he wished wii u homebrew was more common.
I love how two years into the Switch Nintendo was still ok with people wanting to make Wii U games
wow this is so cool i have a wii-u and these some cool games can you make this a thing that would be sooo cool to play
The Pointer controlled shooter is very similar if not the same as the minigame in Super Mario Bros DS
That's exactly what I thought!
Nice touch with the nintendo world theme
Man id enjoy a remake :l
that nintendo land ost brought back some memories
Woahh you could make a whole VR setup with the Wii U!! Although it would be more like an Oculus Go cause it wouldn't have 6 degrees of freedom capacities unless somehow you could pair the Xbox Kinect or Vive bases?
A drumming game using the wii motion + could be a cool idea!
i really want beatsaber for switch it seems like it would be pretty perfect for that, though i’ve heard that the joycons aren’t the most precise for high tempo stuff
How did you get your hands on the Unity plugin? It seems to be discontinued as of 2018
It's possible it was discontinued I'm 2018 but was still available into 2019, not sure though

I love it -- great work. It's exciting and inspirational to see somebody doing this. Admittedly I only skimmed the video -- but do you know if it's reasonable to make games that integrate the TV and the Game Pad together? I've been considering using the Wii U to make multiplayer games similar to Nintendo Land's.
I’m so sad we didn’t get more games like this! The Wii U was full of potential! If you were to ever make a full, finished game I’d probably buy it.
sick
5:00 that no copyright song in pou food game XD
You should do more with this!
Do you need a special Wii U or you have to Homebrew it when you export your game projects?
Homebrew
@@mhx5071 i thought it was rom
You could do that on the PSVita x)
The 3DS is possible but good luck to optimize them so they run properly though...
Holly wii please continue on the beat saber game :D
That's so cool, now I want to registrer on the Nintendo devs page... but I feel I have nothing to show them why I wanna join haha, I will need to create a project prototype before I guess..
I like how yoU used a remixed version of the nintendo land music for the video since this video is about the wii u and nintendo land is one of the main games for the wii u
I would like to play these games :, (
PD: good video crack
Please release this as homebrew!
Just out of curiosity would you make a tutorial for developing for wii u in unity
Nice
this is so cool wutt
3:44 dad's with belts be like : ah this looks like a fun game to play with my kids
Continue the best saber clone its awesome 😀😀😀
And can you make it avaible to download
Hey PolyMars, your projects inspired me but unfortunately the Unity for Wii U software is no longer available. Do you have a copy/back up that could share via torrent or something like it?
WOW!
The clap endless runner can be a rhythm game
When you are making Beat Saber for WiiU? Ich love this game and I want it to play it on my favourite console.
can we just appreciate that he has nintendo lands theme in the background?
also wheres that link
Wii U still alive, People make Independently Wii U game development, Platforms first times and new generation over comes, Advanced graphical game engine by big team
3:26 i think my dad and my mom played this game last night
AwsumTurtle LOOL
I dont think it was a game that your dad and mom was playing
bruh this dude is gonna love to see game builder garage
ngl I feel like the wii u is extremely underrated
How come there are only 10K views on this video. this video is so introsting
"Wii U export plugin for Unity"
So _that's_ why there's so many Unity games on Switch, Nintendo has special tools for Unity.
How did you get access to Unity for Wii U? I thought it was discontinued?
Can you make the beat saber public please, it is great!
I was hoping to see some asymmetric games where the content on the tv is different than what’s on the handheld. I always thought the idea was never really explored fully.
Could you perhaps make a tutorial sometime on how to make such games? (especially with the Wii remotes)
Man good video Wii U would not be my first choice.
That The Only Outlaw port is awesome. If you still have it, can you release it's file?
Have you considered making a assymetrical multiplayer game for the Wii U? The potential for those kinds of games on Wii U are so high and havent really been used aside from Nintendo Land and Mario Party.
Which is what I’m going to try and do
How were u able to import these prototypes to the wii u without the fancy hardware Idk if u needed fancy hardware to do or u just used a sd card cause I’m trying to make a game myself and I am having difficulty making one
The pointer controlled shooter is like the Mario mini game on the ds
Wow! That's amazing!
You had to buy a Wii U devkit for this, right? I might look towards doing something similar for the 3DS for fun
I think the WiiU had free unity exports, but you had to sign up for it
If you homebrew your 3ds or Wii U, you don’t need to buy one.
I got Wii U so cool
*Neat™️*
I’d buy that beat saber clone
Hello ! GG for you Work ! :)
How do you detect the saber in beat saber ? By the ir bar or by the wiimote's gyroscope ? Have a good day !
I use the Wii Motion Plus sensors, which rely mainly on a gyroscope but also use the IR sensor for automatic recalibration :)
@@PolyMars Thank you for your fast response time ! :) And i have also another question : Will you upload the project or the file for the wiiU somewhere ? Thanks ;)
Oh, isn't the Background music the plaza from Nintendo Land when it's late? 😄🤔
I know beat saber runs on Unity so would it be possible to just port it and mess with like the camera and controllers instead of making a clone?
