I don't know why everyone is hating on the Nintendo conference. Was it great? No but it was cool and smoked the Microsoft and Sony conferences. It also explained the new console well enough. As for the lack of games which seems to be the general cause of concern among gamers I find this complaint rather petty. The wii barely had any AAA third party support. Even if the Wii U is getting ports of several month old games at least it's a start and they aren't just straight ports either they're implementing new control options and in some cases bonus material. Assassins creed 3 as a launch title is amazing for Nintendo. I believe that Nintendo really is trying to court the hard core, the Wii U pro controller and m rated titles add credence to this. It's ridiculous for people to expect a new console Zelda already when skyward was released less than a year ago. New Super Mario Bros. U looked great and the graphics were much improved from last year. Nintendoland doesn't look bad, if it shows of what the wii u can do I'm all for it. I can relate to a desire for more mainstream epic nintendo games from franchises we hold near and dear or maybe from a new IP but I am confident they will come in time. System launches usually aren't great remember the ps3: 599 U.S dollars, Ridge Racer, giant enemy crabs. Nintendo hasn't shown anything that bad yet and that's why I can't comprehend the pessimism. I'm buying a Wii U at launch It looks amazing and I don't think I'll be disappointed.
