Topic: Wii U - e3 is over... now what?

[Caterkiller]

Your original reasoning behind it was crazy though

I just have a strong that Retro Studios is working on the next console Starfox. Here is why:
 
Graphics of the Metroid Prime series + The cartooish atmospehre of DKCR = Starfox Wii U

that requires a LOLwut.jpg
but I don't feel like looking for it right now.

your fleshed out reasoning later made much more sense, but the comments like the quote above come from you far to often.

That post was made very late at night and I was very sleepy.

You must not get much sleep.

I work fourty plus hours per week and still find time to frequent these forums and play games.

Just read an announcement from Reggie stating that Wii U will be completely different than Wii and that the players buying Wii U games will also be different meaning that they will have moved up from casual to hardcore. It's probably old news to most, but it blew me away completely especially after playing Nickelodeon Skyward Sword. People have no idea how excited I am for Wii U. I've been Nintendo since day one and well when Wii came out it was just like wtf so to see them say Wii U will be the opposite I'm so hyped.

It's got a fantastic library of games - Super Mario Bros DS, Mario Kart DS - I think over 1400 games. I think it's a different kind of consumer than those who really want to experience the 3D of the 3DS.

That sentence is why NoA is fail.  You are the head of NoA at the very least you should be able to go that there are over 1,400 games without sounding like your not sure.  Another thing to point out is yet again how out of touch NoA is with the consumer.  They be the Senate if they were in government.  "...who really want to experience the 3D of the 3DS." should have been "...who really want to experience the Advanced Features of the 3DS."  The 3D is the last thing you want to push in a 3D Fatigued American market.

"hardcore" does not mean "edgy"!

Reggie: I did not have any ****** relations with that console.

This is typical PR gibberish. They always say stuff like this every time. It means nothing and Skyward Sword is epic!

It's epic, but you have to admit that those flying pirate things and the Leviathan boss looks like something you'd see on Nickelodeon.

[NWR_insanolord]

The game looks fantastic. I really don't think they could've done better in terms of art style (at least with an older Link).

[ThePerm]

He's like a giant cross between Squidward and Plankton. I want some of that GoW Leviathan **** in a Zelda game.

i don't have censorship on, why is **** censored?

[oohhboy]

It isn't. I intentional typed it that way so you can fill it in with your own word. For those who need an explanation: It's a Bill Clinton joke.

Fixed. I didn't know the rules with swearing. Also how come it doesn't show anything under my name even though in my profile I wrote stuff under it?

The personal text in the profile isn't the same as the text under your name. I'm not sure what the point of that is, as you can only see that when looking at your profile. The text under your name can only be changed by moderators.

Project C.A.R.S. slated for a Wii U release
(Community Assisted Racing Sim)
http://www.eurogamer.net/articles/2011-11-24-project-cars-preview

How that finished product makes it to the market remains in-flux. For now, it's set to be a free-to-play PC game, powered by micro-transactions that will, Slightly Mad says, be competitively pitched, undercutting its competitors in what they're calling a supermarket pricing philosophy. There's the intention of having it come to console too, with Xbox 360, PlayStation 3 and Wii U versions currently slated - which suggests a boxed copy when the project nears completion in 2013, an idea that Slightly Mad isn't entirely averse to.

The more the merrier. And I'm sure it will make good use of the tablet as a steering wheel should it ever actually see retail or console release.

Ubisoft Quebec working on a "AAA Wii U MMO"?
http://www.facebook.com/ubisoftquebec?v=app_404596412628

positions are open and they are hiring to fill them

[Enner]

Ubi Soft preparing to rush the system at launch. That seems to be working out for them as some of their Kinect launch titles are getting sequels.

As for the game being an MMO, I wonder if that means the Wii U online structure is an open free-for-all. Ubi Soft probably plans to have a more substantial U-Play service if that is the case.

While it would be nice for Nintendo to have some sort of universal Wii U online identity and account service, I'm going to assume that is not going to happen. It can't be too hard for Nintendo make one, can it? I mean, Club Nintendo stuff must already have some of the work done.

[nickmitch]

The 3DS has universal friend codes and you can link your system to your Club Nintendo account, so I would think it wouldn't be that hard.

"Nintendo Wii U Specs Leak to the Web"
http://www.maximumpc.com/article/news/nintendo_wii_u_specs_leak_web

On paper, the Wii U is not only on par with the Xbox 360 and PS3, but it's actually 50 percent more powerful, game industry analyst Arvind Bhatia from Sterne Agee told Wii U Daily. More recently, Wii U Daily claims to have spoken with another developer who was willing to go into specifics.

According to this unnamed developer, the Wii U will rock a quad-core 3GHz PowerPC-based processor built on a 45nm manufacturing process. It's similar to the one found in the Xbox 360, but updated and with an additional processing core. It will have 768MB of DRAM embedded with the CPU that will be shared between the CPU and GPU, and an unknown 40nm AMD-based graphics chip.

The source tells Wii U Daily that Nintendo's currently testing two versions of its next generation console, one with 768MB of RAM and one with 1GB. All of these specs could change, however, as the Wii U's release is still several months away.

For those who like looking at spec sheets.
EDIT: Er, rumors of spec sheets.


EDIT, EDIT: Ah, they have their own threads.

Wii U Specs: 768MB of eDRAM & 3Ghz QCore PPC? <-- Rumor thread


Wii U has quad core 3GHz CPU, 768 MB of RAM <--It's own thread
