In light of Brokemon's post, I guess we have another Wii U buyer on our board. Considering there is going to be a 3DS and Wii U Smash Bros.

My biggest interest right now is whether the online is going to be account-based, and dedicated server support.

No clue, but I reckon the existence of Ghost Recon Online for Wii U (a formerly PC-exclusive shooter which is online only) points to a much better solution than they have in place for even 3DS, which is frankly vastly improved over Wii and DS.

Hosoi acknowledged the stock price may recover if Kyoto-based Nintendo could convince investors that the new machine was as fun as smartphones and other new devices.

If this thing is priced under 400 dollars it will sell like crazy.

It's a basically a Wii with everything that we like about the old system, plus high end hardware, third party support, and a functional online system.

Reggie says that the bird tech demo from the Wii U conference was running on an early revision development kit.

People actually think smartphones are more fun than dedicated gaming devices?

That's absurd.

Yeah, who wants buttons, analog sticks, d-pads, stereoscopic 3D, and a real game library when you have an iPhone that makes you look "cool"?

I'm not gonna run out and buy one, that's for sure. I'm not interested in any of the games announced for it. Also, developers need to prove that they can make the experience significantly better on the U for me to get X game on it vs. another system.

This is the attitude I want to have about the Wii U, because it's the logical attitude to have towards purchasing any videogame system, but if Pikmin 3 is a launch title I'm buying two of them on launch day just to make sure that if one is defective then I can still play Pikmin 3 as soon as possible.

well, thing is, I'm fucking sick of the bullshit. I said this gen was the last gen I was gonna game because too much bullshit. unfinished games being released because they can be patched later, on-disc launch day DLC, games being nothing more than 10 hour quicktime events. There's a lot of shittiness in the industry and it's only gonna get worse. Nintendo managed to avoid a lot of this on the Wii because they basically had no digital content delivery system. Wii devs HAD to finish their games and put all the content they were going to put in the game on the disc. I am afraid that it won't go down like that on the U which makes me want it even less than I already do. It's going to be Activision, EA, Capcom, Ubisoft etc all up to their old tricks and I'm just fucking done with it.

heard a rumor about the controllers that could be a major deal breaker; you can only connect 1 of the new controllers to the system at a time. the only way to do local MP would be with 1 new controller and the rest wii remotes.

I imagine that if it's true, it's because the U probably couldn't stream video content to multiple controllers at a time. The controllers don't have any processing power themselves, they just receive info from the console.
