Admiral Tim Posted July 3, 2012 Report Share Posted July 3, 2012 So the new console from Nintendo is set to release soon. So basically Nintendo is trying to blend together a tablet-type controller with the new successor to the Wii. What i'm wondering is how this will work and if it will really be worth buying? With all this hype I just don't see the interest. Yes it's backwards compatible but it just looks odd and lame. Anyways anyone else got some opinions of facts they like to share about Nintendo's...new product? Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
burnpsy Posted July 3, 2012 Report Share Posted July 3, 2012 Same reaction people had to the Wii. Wait until it's released, then try it before making a comment on its merits. Since you already formed an opinion, I will refrain from bothering to explain further. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Tentacruel Posted July 6, 2012 Report Share Posted July 6, 2012 A lot of people are saying it's going to crash and burn, but they are idiots. I just wish people would actually look up how the controller works and what-not before making judgments. The best part is that the XBox 720 will probably be even more casual than the WiiU.

antist0opid Posted July 6, 2012 Report Share Posted July 6, 2012 Personally, I think this is the big N's comeback. Developers are actually paying attention to what this system can do. The tablet controller being the main feature, I think it will open up so unique gaming experiences. What I'm happy about is the third party recognition. The system isn't even out yet, but it has a strong launch lineup for first party Nintendo games, plus plenty of great third party games announced. Not sure if Wii U will have great commercial success because so many people think its a new controller with an HD enhancement to the Wii.....
