Sorry, I just got an image of Reggie Fils-Aime on stage expressing Nintendo's deep commitment to "not suck donkeyballs" this time.Cowabungaa said:
After seeing the Zelda thing where you have the inventory on the screen I can only think of one thing and thats PIP BOY.
While the controller looks a bit bulky, and it kind of is "DS on the big screen with better graphics," and the "WiiU" is possibly the DUMBEST name ever, it at least puts Nintendo in front of it's competition with a new console while the others are trying desperately to play catch up. Nintendo has the other two guys by the balls, twisting the industry to it's whim. It will also be nice to actually get games that are actually released on all three consoles and PS at once instead of getting the occassional downgraded port, if ever at all.
I hope developers let us use the duplicate screen option, the interaction between screens seemed kinda funky. Also, think how much that controller is gonna cost and how much battery life will it have. As for power, seems like it'll hold on until PS4 and Xbox 3 destroy it.
I didn't think the Wiimote was useful, but functional at pointing stuff, but shaking was just horrible. The dual screens of the DS still seem to me like a completely pointless thing.
Finally, Luigi's Mansion 2, New Super Mario Bros. Mii, Kid Icarus, Smash Bros, Zelda...and so on, and those games almost all look the same as their predecessors. Makes me think Nintendo is actually for kids who never played these franchises before.
One gem that stood out: Aliens Colonial Marines, though I'll probably get that for PS3.

I missed it.
Can someone give me a gist of what happened?
All I know is that there is a new smash bros, the new console is named something stupid, and the controller looks expensive as hell.y
Was there any new skyward sword footage/info? Any majora's Mask stuff?

Recently, I promised myself that I would not buy the next Nintendo console and go for Sony instead... Unfortunately, Nintendo is making it very hard for me to keep my promise. The controller looks sweet (although probably will be super expensive). I'm glad Nintendo finally put two fully functioning analog sticks on a controller (no, the GC controller doesn't count). A new Super Smash Bros, Tekken, frickin' Darksiders! Awesome!
Oh well, if it doesn't have good online, it's kinda destined to fail. I hope Nintendo sees that.

Honestly I fail to see how this can even compete with CURRENT gen consoles from Sony and MS. The horsepower is supposedly there, but can you really imagine yourself playing Mass Effect or Call of Duty on that ridiculous iPad controller? Because I can't. It's 20 inches wide for christ sake.
If Nintendo released another controller option that more closely resembled the 360 or PS3 pad, I'd be sold. Until then, "MEH!".

No news of the Fire Emblem: Mystery of the Emblem remake that was released in Japan last summer? Even though it is so vastly superior to Shadow Dragon because SD stayed too true to the original?
Oh it is sad day!

SSB was hinted at for both 3DS and WiiU.Jabberwock xeno said:
The controller is touchscreen and you can stream the image from your TV to the controller.
The WiiU will have games like Darksiders, Batman AC, Assassins Creed etc
Nothing new from the Zelda front it terms of what you mentioned. They opened with a big orchestral piece, then announced some symphony which I tuned out of for a minute or so. There was some brief HD footage of Zelda on the WiiU, though.
Skyward Sword on the Wii u, or a new one?TheBlitz said:
Any word on how much the controller will be.
I like that a new SSB was announced, and that there getting into the hardcore games marketplace, but nothing extraordinarily was announced.
Not to be a dark cloud on a sunny day for all you who are looking forward to this. But how will online work with this? Wasn't the online thing for Wii terrible as I heard it wasn't great and needed work.
Anyways I don't see the point of changing over to the Wii-U. Most of the games are coming out can be play on xbox and ps3.As well as I'm not a Nintendo fan so I don't feel like playing a remake of Zelda or Mario for the 50th time.

Once upon a time I used to like nintendo but that was many years ago now and in my opinion they have released bad console after bad console. Whatever they release next I'm sure it will be just as bad. But I'm also sure it will sell millions of units and they will release a better version next year.
honestly, they didnt show anything new in terms of actual games... just stuff we already knew was coming
and with zelda, all they did was mention it is the 25th anniversary and talk about the music, instead of showing the game everyone is waiting for.
project cafe was unveiled, but only through video footage mockup gameplay and shit. they never actually demoed it

Skyward Sword wasn't shown at all if I remember correctly. The HD Zelda I was referring to looked like Twilight Princess, vs some giant tarantula. There was no word whether that was a game or just a demo for showing off the graphics.
No price given at this time, nor specs of the console.
