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.

So true, though the two-screened projects they take on are pretty awesome.

Hahaha, this is so true! I've seen Wii U(funny name) on E3(on the Internet) and I liked it, actually. I like Nintendo for it's out-of-the-box way of thinking, they don't want to have the strongest console but they have some cool ideas like DS and Nintendo Wii(Wii remote was a great idea).

Phlum In reply to aaamaaa [2011-06-09 14:49:38 +0000 UTC]

Ever notice that they always name their consoles as if they're talking about a living being?
For example, Reggie Fils-Aime at E3: "Let us take a look at what Wii U can do".

I would say "the Wii U". They did it with the 3DS as well. It's quite peculiar...

Everyone keeps saying it looks silly, I then show them the trailer for it.

For gods sake nintendo, JUST TAKE MY MONEY! ALL OF IT!!

In all seriousness, I rather like how Nintendo keeps coming up with crazy ideas that more often than not: Succeed.

People, no matter how much hatred is going on about it from he same people (Which is surprisingly low, guess you can blame Sony and MS for that), will buy it faster than they can make them, again.

I am holding out judgment till at least a year. I want to wait to see what type of games they bring out. The Wii seemed to mainly focus on shovel ware.

Why can't they just make the wii U a separete thing itself, like a portable wii, something that doesn't need to connect to the Wii to actually operate tall of its glory

Lol awesome. However I have to say, if they follow through with everything this Wii U should be capable of, it will be brilliant.

Who all remembers that one flash video from the early 2000s when the Nintendo SP first came out and it was like "that's where you're wrong!", and it goes on to show how many things the SP has, one of which was a duffel bag.

Good times, good times.

I like the look on Miyamoto's face,

It takes a brave man to try and come up with these ideas and I do believe that Miyamoto does have a crazy side to him that he often keeps hidden away because of his high profile job at Nintendo.
