This is like Christmas for trolls, too bad I have to be at work all day. :-/
HEY GUYS REMEMBER WHEN NINTENDO WAS COOL AND ZELDA WAS A RELEVANT FRANCHISE?!?!?!
this is actually pretty cute. :-[...Nintendo won?
already brutally bad
How do the games look? Pretty much like the HD twins?

good, show third party games. please amaze me
Reggie is such a jackass. He's not a good bullshitter, at all. He just sounds like a fucking liar.
buy $250 handheld
play 20 year old games on it
Ok no latency transition of the video is really fucking cool.
Yaay transition low quality youtube vids to your HDTV... bu bu Wii U is not HD?Ok no latency transition of the video is really fucking cool.
480p prob.
This is such bullshit. Anyone that defends this shit or says that Nintendo won E3 is a fucking liar.
Where are those core titles? Or those games that blow PS3/360 away? Battlefield 3? Mass Effect 3? Fuck, an Ubisoft port collection?
Eat a dick, Nintendo, Reggie and Iwata. You didn't hear us. This is dogshit.
Oh hey, developers talking up a product they'll only marginally support for a few months before totally abandoning!
anyone looking forward to this is a goddamned distinguished mentally-challenged fellow
I want to play my iPad 3 on my TV
I don't want to play Wii 2 on my Nintendo iPad
Ninja Gaiden 3 looks way beyond PS3 level.
Zelda looks almost as good as Gears.
are you guys watching the nintendo streamI was until the ham fisted Nintendo employees started pretending to have fun playing the game.

NoA just trolled America again, no xenoblade or last story coming :lol :lol
unbelievable
I'm so shocked. Nintendo literally had nothing to show.
They say WiiU is a year off, but don't show any ds games, barely any 3ds games (all of which we knew about except Luigi), no new wii games, and wiiu is a year away.
The whole thing is puzzling. They had nothing to show.

Well this was one of the worst E3s of all time. Worst generation ever rerereconfirmed.
don't they usualy have a press site with actual image and stuff that requires a password that usualy leaks?
what happens to that when it turns out they haven't shown anything?

How is not releasing Xenoblade a shitty decision? Are you like one of those dudes who says SEGA hates money cuz they won't drop $25 million constructing the next Shenmue snorefest?
Because they're releasing it in two territories and since they've pretty much written off the wii for those poor saps that thought it was the true gamer machine, the least they can do is give it a North American release.
Oh and I think Shenmue is dogshit so no, I'm not one of those people.
I'm at work, did Nintendo deliver? Give me good news, true believers
there are more costs involved with releasing a game than just translating it. NOA's job is to make money. they can better achieve that task by not releasing niche core jrpgs on a system where they would sell worse than magical starsign.
Someone explain: why will developers stick with the WiiU instead of moving on.

And don't give me the bullshit about "well the next gen will cause developers great financial strain, thus allowing Nintendo to be a beacon of cheap dev costs!" I heard that when the Wii came out and look what happened.
I've decided I'm not buying this, I'm done with this bullshit.
they showed a load of third party games, all running on -whatever- looking exactly like their 3rd party brothers - yet when they showed games OBVIOUSLY made for the WiiU (the Mii games and, especially, Tekken) they all looked poor.
No Xenoblade/The Last Story - there goes everything I was interested in this year... sigh.
the path to their imagined victory seems to rest on all Wii purchasers rushing out to upgrade.
Wii U sounds like some Wii upgrade,people will be confused
So logically can we assume that the next one will be called Wii U Thae?

Also will there be a sequel to Yevgeny Zamyatin's novel to go along with this?
The Wii U can output up to 1080p video via HDMI, and it can handle one tablet controller plus as many as four Wii Remotes or Wii Remote Plus wands. (In fact, the Wii U is backward compatible with all Wii games and accessories.)]
Also will there be a sequel to Yevgeny Zamyatin's novel to go along with this?
These console makers need to learn that when you lose focus and try to please everyone, you end up alienating everyone. I want my game system to do one thing and one thing only, play games.
Controllers often get dirty, greasy, thrown to the wall...etc so this will just add more trouble to the gamer.
http://gonintendo.com/viewstory.php?id=160137
i like how this shit could be done easy and cheap with just some online work but nooooooooooooooooooooooooooooope
screen on the controller!
Do you think we're moving any closer toward that theoretical "one-console future"?
If...and it seems this time as though its no exaggeration...Nintendo has truly garnered the support of third parties. And they have still maintained an innovative perspective, and brought to the table a controller that enhances gameplay...
I believe we might be a step closer. Imagine. The WiiU will have first party nintendo games, hardcore and casual, AND the DEFINITIVE version of multiplatform games like Call of Duty, FIFA, Grand Theft Auto, etc...
What reason do you have left to buy any other system?
(For me, Sony's first party efforts are the only remaining competitor.)
All of this combined with a gradual move toward Cloud-computing/storage and digital distribution...
Seems to me like its just a race to see who gets there first.
Please try to keep this discussion civil.

But has it been done online? No. Besides there has to be something said for actually playing this kind of game in a room with actual people. It's what makes it fun.
The price point of the system will be competitive to the current prices of the PS3, 360 in terms of value
The games shown for Wii U at the show were actually PS3 and 360 versions but the Wii U will look the same or better
Been drinking beer with friends. What did I miss?
The people who bought the wii by the millions.
But the mostly already have ps3s and 360s. I'm just thinking that markets well is almost dry.
The system seems relatively powerful, I guess. 360 came out in late 2005, this is mid-2012...you'd kind of expect something like that. If I do buy one of these, I'll probably get multiplat games on it for the ~year before the next gen consoles show up.
-Skyloft is the "hub" and is like WW's Great Sea, but with flying
-Hyrule is one giant dungeon, and the actual temples are like dungeons-within-dungeons
-Giant birds replace the horse/boat
-You will be required to revisit dungeons you've already beaten, a la Metroid
-Items will be upgradeable, but you'll have to find the necessary materials
-Dungeons have warp points like the cauldrons in WW, but they warp you back to Skyloft
-Zelda is a Saria/Malon/Ilia-type character and does not start the game as royalty
-There is orchestrated music, and it's awesome
Tell me youre joking man :-[

-price
-price of extra controllers

Everything I've read so far has been really vague... I haven't had time to watch the presser (work all day) and don't want to wade through the thread or all of the internets to figure this shit out.
This is like the Pacman Vs e3.
No mulit-touch and can only handle one wii u controller per console are mistakes by Nintendo. Whatever idea they think is so great to trot it out three generations in a row, that idea would be a lot more if you could allow muliti-touch and mulitple screen-controllers. Right now, its just Pacman VS HD. It's limited and the idea has been around for 9 years and hasn't advanced at all.
??? You think a party game featuring Nintendo mascots will bomb on the Wii ???
20 million seller easy
I can't tell if Arvie is defending this or not.

Are you serious? this was confirmed? this just gives away the price of the thing. :lol
Lol gaffers are impressed about the nature demo :lol
I am not sure if one-controller is confirmed. The no multi-touch is confirmed.
Lol gaffers are impressed about the nature demo :lol
The one with the bird? I thought it was totally meh, and was relieved to know I'm not mad when I read an IGN article stating the same.. But I think they said there was another demo which looked good.
The bird demo looked like something out of Futuremark 10 years ago.
I just held the WiiU controller. Wow it's big. Traditional games on this are going to hurt your hands something awful.
perhaps they have finally learned that innovation in gaming has nothing to do with the control mechanism and to quit chasing idiotic "immersion" fantasies that have nothing but novelty implementations*. innovation is a function for which hardware power (processing plus working memory) is the primary paramater
Will Darksiders 2 even come out for the Wii U? It seems like there's always a huge list of launch or near launch titles for major consoles that never materialize. I think a lot of these year old Wii U ports will fall into that category.
Retro is working on Mario Kart 3ds and its 60fps.
:bow Retro :bow2

Pikmin wiiu just got announced.
its 2011 not 2006
Pikmin wiiu just got announced.
So did Pikmin wii 4 years ago, any screens or trailers?
So like he did in 2007? Is they the nintard reaction as crazy as I hope it is?
They are also making a WiiU game but that hasnt beeen revealed.
I'll take Pikmin 3 over Mario 549 or Zelda 341 at least.
I'll take Pikmin 3 over Mario 549 or Zelda 341 at least.
I think a lot of people would, but would Pikmin 3 make you run out and pick up a WiiU?
Nintendo of America president Reggie Fils-Aime has told GameTrailers that the footage—of games like Ghost Recon and Darksiders II—was instead culled from the PC, PS3 and Xbox 360 versions of the games.
He says the reason for this is that Nintendo is still "a year away from when the console will launch".
Hardly a surprise.
Well, the Darksiders guys says that DSII will look the best for Woo (I'm calling it that). I have a feeling that the Woo versions of these games will indeed be the best versions graphic-wise, but we'll see what their online service ends up doing for these games.
Also, Skyward Sword looks fuckawesome
edit: I think the real coming out for the system will be Nintendo's event in October, and E3 next year.
The Nintendo Wii U tablet-style controller will not be sold separately from it new HD console, Nintendo has told CVG.

the system is significantly more powerful than the wii, like an order of magnitude PLUS moreso. the cpu is a souped-up out-of-order version of the xenon with a massive cache, and the gpu is a radeon 4770/4830* to the xenos' pre-radeon 2XXX era gpu. given that it is more powerful than the 360 by a factor of 3-5x (although linear increments in performance mean nothing for results beyond better frame rates at higher resolutions, and cleaner effects), it doubly spanks the fuck out of the gimpo ps3 and its kludgy cell x geforce 7600
*according to word of mouth. to me, the tiny form factor with its limited cooling and power draw screams radeon mobility chipset, like a 4770M/4830M.

Ok guys, this thing will get a few ports that no one will buy thanks to no install base (except nintards that wil buy ninstuff only) in the first year.
Then the new PS and Xbox come out and devs stop making anything for this again.
What a turd.
Today at E3, AMD (NYSE: AMD) announced its support for Nintendo’s newly-announced Wii U™ system, as a new way to enjoy HD console gaming entertainment. The custom AMD Radeon™ HD GPU reflects the best characteristics of AMD’s graphics technology solutions: high-definition graphics support; rich multimedia acceleration and playback; and multiple display support. As an industry leader, AMD has supplied the game console market with graphics expertise and ongoing support for more than 10 years.
“We greatly value our synergistic relationship with the AMD design team. The AMD custom graphics processor delivers the best of AMD’s world-class graphics expertise. AMD will support our vision of innovating play through unique entertainment experiences," said Genyo Takeda, senior managing director, Integrated Research & Development of Nintendo Co. Ltd.
“AMD shares Nintendo’s excitement for the new HD entertainment experience planned for the Wii U console,” said David Wang, corporate vice president of Silicon Engineering, AMD. “We’re proud to provide our leading-edge HD multimedia graphics engine to power the new entertainment features of the console. Nintendo is a highly-valued customer and we look forward to the launch in 2012.”
AMD custom graphics enable the new Nintendo system to provide exciting, immersive game play and interaction for consumers around the world. The AMD custom graphics processor features a modern and rich graphics processing core, allowing the new console to shine with new graphics capabilities.
No idea what the hell "multiple display support" is, but the gaffots are going crazy about it.

Nintendo stock took a hit after lackuster reception of the Me Too :lol
Worst thing is and I fucking despise myself for that, that I even believed the pre-E3 hype that this will be a true "next-gen" console that will somehow be ahead of current high-end PCs (much like when 360 launched).
Nintendo trolled me. Hard.
Of course the game isn't close to done, and probably won't be a launch title.
I think it really takes after all the bad decisions from the dreamcast and forgetting the good. The Dreamcast was a generational leap released early with Sega giving it their all to please the gaming audience at the time, which was mostly "hardcore" gamers, with an arcade at home experience plus introducing a lot of qualities that were PC exclusive at the time. Nintendo is releasing a catch up system as a short term fix due to the Wii losing momentum by trying their hardest to cater to all audiences by adding everything they can from all of these into one.
Plus you have to remember that back then 3rd party exclusives weren't as rare, so while getting superior ports you got exclusive games and I don't really see exclusives for the Wii U using the technology in a way that isn't rushed at this point.
I'm sure there will be some good Nintendo games but man the console itself is everything I didn't want to happen, so why buy it?
Wait, wait, wait. Nintendo should emulate sega? The dreamcast? No thanks I'd rather they stay relevant and not get bought by a pachinko company.
Wait, wait, wait. Nintendo should emulate sega? The dreamcast? No thanks I'd rather they stay relevant and not get bought by a pachinko company.
At least Sega went out with some diginity and delivered. If your idea of staying relevant is selling out and making shit like nintendo...
Whats the point of supporting something, if it isnt something you enjoy and like?
Because I'm an -adult- with a -brain-
IBM's embedded dynamic random access memory (test chip shown here) will help deliver a thrilling new game experience to Nintendo fans. The new memory technology, a key element of the new Power microprocessor that IBM is building for the Nintendo Wii U console, can triple the amount of memory contained on a single chip, making for extreme game play.

Because I'm an -adult- with a -brain-
Repeated public affirmations of your enjoyment of Wii Music say otherwise!
Because I'm an -adult- with a -brain- who understands you gotta accept economic realities if you want to enjoy this hobby. I don't care that sega went out with 'dignity'. They had terrible business sense and their output suffered in quality after they went third party. It was really fucking sad. I really don't give a shit if Nintendo makes a billion dollars off of wiifit while killing fzero. I'm not dumb enough to take that as a personal attack. In the meantime, I'll have fun with what they do release. But then again its all a moot point because I'm arguing with an idiot who stereotypes cuz it makes life simpler, m i rite?
real talk: sega is pretty good these days. they even make money!
and i would argue that aside from tokyo ead and retro, nintendo on the whole has seen their output drop in quality. i mean, where the hell did intsys go? nintendo may not have gone third party, but with what happened to their output from having to stretch resources to appease their new casual audience, they may as well have.
Nintendo CEO Satoru Iwata seems bamboozled by the slump in Nintendo's share prices following the Wii U reveal at the company's E3 press conference this week.http://www.computerandvideogames.com/306642/news/wii-u-related-nintendo-share-slump-is-strange-iwata/ (http://www.computerandvideogames.com/306642/news/wii-u-related-nintendo-share-slump-is-strange-iwata/)
Iwata says the apprehension from investors could be because they don't yet understand how much potential the new console has to change the way games are played.
"The reaction to (Tuesday's) presentation and what I heard from people I met and the mood of the convention did not chime at all with what happened in the stock market. It's strange," Iwata told Reuters.
"It is easy to get the mistaken impression that this is just a game console with a tablet," he suggested.
"People who came to the presentation and tried it out have understood very well that it opens up a lot of new possibilities. But people who have not tried it will find it hard to believe that this controller will change things."
I thought the team behind Mario Galaxy was making the 3DS game. I was really excited.

This doesn't look unexciting...
i don't understand how could anybody expect this to be different from twilight princess
this game is just going to be twilight princess with motion control tacked on (well +motion control would be more exact since they already tacked on motion control with twilight princess)
Am I getting Zelda Cycled? :-\
Bu-bu-bu it haz no soul!1!! :'(
wait, i'm confused. It doesn't look unexciting and yet you wanted it to be exciting? So what's the problem?
That said, personally, this game looks boring as sin. Looks like it's from NSMB team, and I thought that game was boring as fuck. Never played NSMB wii.
Nah, it's not the NSMB team, that's Software Development Group 4, who are busy working on NSMB Mii, presumably. This one is by Tokyo EAD Group 2, who previously did Super Mario Galaxy 2. The original Super Mario Galaxy was Tokyo EAD Group 1, not sure what they're up to at present but probably something weeeeeeeeeeeeeeeooooooooooooo related.
Super Mario 3D isn't exactly exciting me yet, but I trust the developer.
Twilight princess felt like a game pandered toward a loud vocal minority. It was also ugly in art and tech and the music was forgetable. You should really play NSMB wii, stringer. It surpasses every 2d mario to date.
