I hope it's actually a New Console and not just a Controller. Also that thing looks seriosly uncomfortable to hold. [/quote] It is, but it's not like Wii was any better. And it is a whole new Console. They simply chose to show of the controller because that is where a lot of the new stuff is. They'll talk about the system itself some time down the line. It doesn't look that bad imo. But I might just be crazy. [quote name='METALMAXIMAL' timestamp='1307467818' post='5263861'] Dude go to the official e3 thread i created we are taking about it there.

[quote name='Sabotage' timestamp='1307472647' post='5264066'] I'll only get it if the new Luigi's Mansion also comes out on it. [/quote] It is likely a 3DS exclusive.

Tentacruel Posted June 7, 2011 Report Share Posted June 7, 2011 So much hate! D: Tbh, there's no reason not to like the WiiU, it's got a little of everything for everyone. =) Just sit tight and wait, they'll probably announce a bunch of games at next year's E3.

Dark Posted June 8, 2011 Report Share Posted June 8, 2011 The fact that they only announced the controller so far bodes well for the actual console itself. When you think about it, the controller itself is only barely less complex than a normal DS console, and we take handhelds for granted these days. I know Nintendo gave into graphics whores, but I'm glad we're updating our hardware, and I am looking forward to the Wii U's release. Not loving the name, but loving the hype behind it. I probably won't (can't, even, since I will not lug around a console in college) be picking up this beautiful piece of video gaming awesomeness, but I can sure as hell appreciate it all the same.

Flame Dragon Posted June 8, 2011 Report Share Posted June 8, 2011 Um....why does it matter. WiiU plays HD games now so the final product will look like that anyway. And of course it wasn't from the console since it's still in development. Sigh. Really people are making mountains out of mole hills. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Tentacruel Posted June 8, 2011 Report Share Posted June 8, 2011 Yeah, you guys are just looking for reasons to hate on the WiiU now. They probably don't have things far along yet to run those games on the console. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
J-Max Posted June 8, 2011 Report Share Posted June 8, 2011 I didn't say that I was hating on the Wii U but if you are revealing a new COnsole at least have some Early in Development titles to play rather then Tech Demos. The only thing that blew me away was the Bird Flying Video but even that might have just been a Video. The only thing I see from the Wii U so far is the ability to take it into the bedroom if you fancy some Mario while snuggled up in your blankets.

They always play things close to the chest and only show things when they actually have substance. I'm sure they have some cool titles in the works atm, but they aren't going to show them unless they think it's ready and odds are none of them are.

They had to make this step, Sony and Microsoft (especially the latter) took over Nintendos market by storm, the only option for Nintendo was to announce something even bigger to hold their costumers. I bet if they had the time, it would've turned out more like last years presentation of the 3Ds, with fully playable games and demos. The DS was leading by a long shot over any other handheld on the market (aside from the iPod maybe), so they could take their time developing this incredible thing and show it in an almost ready state. Now they were forced to go ahead and push the Wii U out asap... I'm not a Nintendo fan, and will probably never be one... so yeah, not excited, but still from a marketing point of view (I study that stuff) this is hell of a lot exciting Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Flame Dragon Posted June 13, 2011 Report Share Posted June 13, 2011 Rumor has it the WiiU can only use 1 of the new controller. That's interesting..... To be far I'm sure we would have seen this brought up by someone at this point, but maybe everyone just missed that...idk. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

I think it's something to do with streaming the Image to the Wii U Tablet. Having more then one would eat a lot of System Memory. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
