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

[Fatty The Hutt]

LOL at Ian trying to create some Nintendo-bias controversy.

He isn't creating it; he's only pointing it out. The gaming media is who created it.

Eh, we'll have to agree to disagree on this one, I think. You say there is an existing controversy and Ian is pointing it out.  I say there is no existing controversy and Ian is trying to create one. It's a matter of opinion.

A friend said they were thinking of getting me a Roku for Christmas. I laughed and told her that I was already getting something superior for myself, a Wii U!

The Wii U (probably) won't have Pandora or Amazon Instant HBO Go...? on it from day one!



Yeah.

Yeah.

Maybe not Pandora, but Amazon Video is confirmed for Wii U.

Modified accordingly!

We've made a number of bets on the Wii U, so we're certainly hoping that the platform comes strongly out of the gate. We've got two other titles in development. One of them is original, our own IP, and another is based on another big franchise that will come out in 2013. It's a big title and you will have heard of it.

I suggest reading the whole thing, it's interesting.


Also that Gameinformer reveals Metroid in Nintendo Land. As we all figured it's Battle Mii. Looks pretty fun too! Can't confirm yet but 5 players, 1 player is Samus's ship, everyone else is free for all shooting with either Wiimote or analog. Yay! Wait... it probably means wiimote and chuk.

Also from that magazine people are reporting news about NSMBU.



Apparently the map is very Super Mario World like. It can be panned around and explored at any time. Much more complex than the 2 branching paths we have been getting lately.

Dragon Age 3 or Sonic Chronicles 2.

[Kairon]

Dragon Age 3 or Sonic Chronicles 2.

What makes you say that?

[Caterkiller]

I'm thinking Dragon Age as well for no particular reason. What else does Bioware got?

Mass Effect is pretty much closed for now.
 
It could be Jade Empire 2 or Dragon Age 3.
 
 

[Caterkiller]

Oh and a brand new game apparently. These guys don't make mini game shovel ware right? So this should be good news even to the downer trio.

[Kairon]

I thought they were talking about the development house in charge of PORTING ME3, not BioWare themselves?

[TJ Spyke]

I'm thinking Dragon Age as well for no particular reason. What else does Bioware got?

But a brand new studio named Slight Right is making the Wii U version (and this is their first game ever), so THEY are the ones saying they are making two new games as the quote is from the developer of the Wii U version.

Casting debuffs since 2003.

[ShyGuy]

Downer Party gets stranded in the frozen wilderness on the way to Calfornia and turn into cannibals.

[Chozo Ghost]

You guys are actually thinking of the Donner Party (not Downer Party).

[ShyGuy]

You know your fate, Chozo rump roast!

[Oblivion]

Why is no one talking about Bioshock Infinite for the Wii U? I've seen it being talked about on my Google News for the pad three days, yet NWR and Kotaku have yet to touch it.

[shingi_70]

I. Think because most people don't care and plan to get it for 360/PS3.

I wonder if nintendo is going to package any nfc markers with the wii U like they did with AR cards with the 3ds. Hope we see some cool nfc stuff announced Thursday.

[Oblivion]

So? It's still Nintendo news. If NWR can manage to talk about things that get no comments and hardly any page views (aka something that no one cares about) then they can talk about this. I mean, a major third party game releasing on the Wii U? Seriously, you're telling me no one cares?

[Caterkiller]

I care and I was going to post it the moment it was mentioned, but since it was debunked so quickly I decided not to worry about it. If it makes it great I will buy it, if not oh we'll.

I understand your feelings Chozo, some of the things I really care about most folks don't give a 2nd look. If they do care about it they only post in talk back and never venture out into the rest of the forums.

We need more activity. I motion we make one Nintendo friend post on these boards and ask them to comment regularly.

[shingi_70]

It was a joke. That and I was thinking why non nintendo only news outlets haven't posted on it.  Saw the news on Nintendolife and gaf

Wrong Kirby avatar person.

[Kytim89]

Here is a list of third party titles that I hope will become Wii U Games:
 
Metal Gear Rising: Reveangance
Metal Gear Solid: Ground Zero
Castlevania: Lords of Shadow 2
Final Fantasy XIII-3
Borderlands 2
Resident Evil 6
GTA V
Hitman: Absolution
Tomb Raider
Devil May Cry
Dead Space 3
Splinter Cell: Blacklist
Watch Dogs
Army of Two: The Devil's Cartel
Metro: Last Light
Rainbow 6: Patriots
 

[TJ Spyke]

Technically Metro: Last Light is a Wii U game, but they put development on hold so they could focus on the Xbox 360/PlayStation 3 versions.
