Description So yeah, just heard about the Wii U and it's weird two screen thingy, and then I realized that Nintendo has a trend for making things with more than one screen... Still, it looks pretty awesome.

Didn't Miyamoto retire? I mean he still does appearances and is a producer, but he is no longer a game designer.
At least I THINK that's what I heard.

Yeah, I belive that nintendo plans it all because: They announce the 3DS, my DSi dies. Now that they have announced the Wii U, my wii died.

Justaplayer97 In reply to ratjay [2011-06-09 22:15:03 +0000 UTC]

The Wii is not dead until they release The Legend of Zelda.

And the DSi can transfer their games to the 3DS so it doesn't matter.

YO DAWG, WE HEARD YOU LIKE SCREENS SO WE PUT A SCREEN NEXT TO YOUR SCREEN UNDER YOUR SCREEN SO YOU CAN WATCH A SCREEN WHILE YOU WATCH A SCREEN WHILE YOU WATCH A SCREEN.

I'm still waiting to see whether the Wii U is truly stupid or truly awesome.

Screw motion control, Nintendo needs to make a regular console that has CONTROLLERS. Motion control should be EXTRA, like Kinnect or Playstation Move.

Sobari In reply to ??? [2011-06-09 18:30:16 +0000 UTC]

I thought the Wii U looked weird at first, but the controller looks a lot better in person than it does in pictures. For some reason, every picture of the thing makes it look taller and less wide that what it actually is, which makes it look horrible.

Aside from that, I was kind of disappointed that Nintendo had next to nothing to show for it in terms of actual games. You'd think that with something as controversial as this, they'd bring a fairly large line-up of 1st-party games to ease everyone's minds. The Zelda tech demo was wonderful, though. I think it actually looked better than anything I've seen on a 360 or PS3. Hell, it even looked better than pre-rendered cutscenes, which is saying a lot.

There are WAY too many new games that are awesome coming out between now and winter 2012. People who trade in a DSi for a 3DS also get Four Swords. I still have a DS Lite! GBA!

...You need to learn your Nintendo. >:U
It's Shigeru Miyamoto, creator of the Yoshi, Mario, Donkey Kong, and Zelda series.

Unless you're joking, then ignore this. .__.

Sorry, I didnt recognize him as Shigeru. I do indeed know my Nintendo. I started playing Nintendo back in fall of 1987.

We need fourteen screens, and then some more screens. And five stylus, for each hand. And it will still never be enough.

OMFG I totally didn't realize Nintendo now has 2 gaming systems with 2 screens now until I saw this.

But seriously, I'm pretty interested in the Wii U. Still looks like it's pretty early in its journey though, so I'll wait until it's closer to its release date before I really start freaking out about it, one way or another.
