Actually, there were two for the GBA and two for the DS

Since the Advance Wars series' has only been on handhelds, I'd imagine that the next installment would be on the 3DS.

If they make Advance Wars 3DS (and make it a successor to Black Hole Rising or Dual Strike rather than the disappointing Days of Ruin), I may be tempted to buy a 3DS

It would be called Battalion Wars 3 lolololololol

I was thinking about Battalion Wars, but this game would be turn-based like AW and have powers

I love Advance Wars. It's one of my favorite series of all time, and made the almighty GBA even more awesome. I have an idea for a Wii U entry, and so here goes:

• Create-A-CO: Create your own CO. Customize his or her looks, proficiencies, and powers.
• Online 4-Player Battles: Pretty self-explanatory. To avoid 3-hour sessions, there may be Words With Friends-esque "at your own pace" multiplayer in that you take your turn, the other players take their turns and you get a notification when it's your turn again while you do something else (probably if this was a downloadable game)
• New Controller Utilization: Your TV would act as a live view of the complete battlefield and give in-depth stats, and you would carry out orders on the touchscreen. This would prevent other players from seeing your actions in splitscreen.

These are just a few ideas that I have. Personally, if this was available as Wii U Ware, I'd buy it in less than a heartbeat.

What do you think?

Nintendo not having DLC in the Wii U would be the equivalent of kicking themselves in the genitals while chewing on a power line.

MY GOD. Those are some graphics. I wonder what video to show to Wii U haters now?

I hope? It releases in summer or before my birthday (June 23rd) maybe pull a dreamcast and launch it at E3.

That was the Saturn actually (Dreamcast launched on 9/9/99 in the States), and Nintendo wouldn't be stupid enough to launch it at E3-it would piss off stores, consumers, and developers alike.

No caps. Now.

Alright. If all of this "Reggie Sez" stuff is false then he is officially the greatest troll of all time

I saw this on GoNintendo too. I compared the image with a picture of Tokyo-


and



They look pretty similar to me.

I think Nintendo did say that they were going to make it so you could basically import the whole of your Wii to the Wii U. (Miis, save data, games, etc)) So no worries, I suppose.

SOURCE. NOW.

If Nintendo doesn't announce Wii U pricing and release at E3, I'll be all like
(ノಠ益ಠ)ノ彡┻━┻

It probably costs Nintendo only a few cents to make a Wii sensor bar, so there's no point in changing it and adding to the cost. Plus, if you look at THIS video at the 28 second mark, the ports are identical to the Wii's (aside from the HDMI), so the sensor bar will stay the same.

A 3D screen would be nice and all, but GOD NO DON'T PUT A 3D SCREEN IN THE WII U'S CONTROLLER. The 3DS' screen barely worked for me, and when it did, it was hardly impressive. Add that with a touchscreen and having to alternate between the controller and the TV's screen, it would just be a painful, uncomfortable, and underutilized nightmare. I do agree that Ninty may have something else in store at E3 (many things, actually), but if anything, it may be the confirmation that we can use more than one Tablet Controller.

Although I think that $299 is the most likely price, a $249 or $269 price would be better for several reasons:

• More competitive with PS3 ($249) and 360 ($199)
• Less of a blaring price gap with the 3DS (at $299, the 3DS would be nearly half the price)
• Less of a blaring price gap with the Wii ($149), which Nintendo wants to keep alive for a bit more
• More competitive with iPad ($499)
• "Reggie Said" that the price will be competitive with the 360/PS3 and that they've learned their lesson from the $249 3DS launch price
• Who doesn't like cheaper stuff?

Nintendo NEEDS to show something new at CES. With the impending launch of the iPad 3 and the mysterious Apple event after CES in New York, consumers will forget about the Wii U and instead be tempted to get an iPad 3. If they show something new, the Wii U will get back in the semi-mainstream news and encourage more consumers to wait.

I think that it would be wise for Nintendo to have at least 1 USB 3.0 port. Given that the console will most likely be out from 2012 to 2017, they need to have the technology available to keep up, and in 2017 a lot more devices will be 3.0 than 2.0. It's kind of like Wi-Fi with the Wii-in 2006, most Wi-Fi was in public places and not in homes.

The Smash Bros. series has a tattered release schedule (3 years from 64 to Melee, 6 years from Melee to Brawl), and I think Nintendo needs a new Smash Bros. more than anything. I'd say it's most likely that it'll come out in late 2013/early 2014. At the very latest, it'll come out in 2014.

This guy was the one who told infomation about Title Fight on the PS3.

Was that ever confirmed?

I'm thinking of using your Club Nintendo account as a "gamertag" and that way you can get "coins" with some sort of "achievements".

That's what I've thought ever since CN launched in the States. And especially with the start of redeeming coins for DLC, I think that's how they'll do it.

I think it just deals with how Nintendo works as a company. I don't think there's some conspiracy to make sure there are X Mario games every generation. And with a successful system comes tons of accessories. That's how capitalism works.

I've never even heard of this site, so I wouldn't get my hopes up high. And if it is a Wii U and 3DS game, it can't be Retro's game (unless Nintendo Software Technology does the 3DS port, not unlike Metroid Prime Hunters and Metroid Prime 3).

A new 2.5D Metroid would be an awesome launch title, and would definitely win us some favor from Game Informer. Also, maybe an HD Zelda collection(Zelda, Zelda II, ALttP, MM, WW, TP and possibly OoT and SS in HD!).

I prefer the side-scrolling Metroid games by far, but I think it's more realistic that we'd see something along the lines of Metroid Prime Hunters 2-a game with a good reputation among hardcore gamers (and even more so with the Prime games) that could show off how online play should be done. Plus, it never hurts to have a heavy-hitter, first-party game at launch (gives death stare to Steel Diver)

Well, it's 2012 and before we know it the Wii U will be out. Along with new hardware launching comes launch titles. So, what do you think will be the U's launch titles? The Pilotwings reboot and Steel Diver launches caught me off guard with the 3DS last year, so I'm stumped for first-party titles. On the third-party side though, I think Ninty needs CoD as a launch title if it comes out in November. What are your ideas?

I hope I don't take a lot of flak from my fellow Star Fox fans for this, but I actually want another game like Assault. I loved that game's hybrid gameplay and awesome multiplayer, and would kill for another game like that with online play.

I think (read:hope) their press conference will be pretty long, maybe 2 hours. I don't think that the Wii will get more than 5-15 minutes, the 3DS will get around 45 minutes, and the Wii U will get the last hour of the press conference. I think we'll get:

• A lot of heavy hitter, western AAA third-party titles (GTA V, Assassin's Creed, Call of Duty, Battlefield, etc.)
• Some Japanese third-party titles (Ninja Gaiden, Metal Gear Solid Rising Metal Gear Rising Revengeance, etc.)
• A look at Retro's new game (Star Fox, Metroid, F-Zero, or something original; it's too soon for a new Zelda game)
• A VERY heavy emphasis on launch titles and/or services, especially after the debacle that was the 3DS launch
• Lots of first-party titles in trailer form (once again, Star Fox, Metroid, F-Zero, or something original. Look at Nintendo's releases last year and you'll realize that most of them were outsourced, meaning that Ninendo's main studios were busy)
• POSSIBLY a new Mario game
• POSSIBLY an HD Skyward Sword re-release as a launch title
• A Smash Bros. trailer
• Apps, apps, apps (real apps, not Nintendo Video-type stuff)
• Full online infrastructure details
• A look at the OS
• Launch details (release date, pricing, and launch titles)

All the people who are saying that the Wii U will cost more than $400 have forgotten one critical thing: THEY'RE NINTENDO! Especially after the disaster that was the 3DS launch and even Reggie going as far as saying that they've "learned their lesson", plus the fact that Nintendo has never priced a console more than $300, I highly believe that the Wii U will be less than $300. With the latest rumors saying that the Wii U is about as powerful as a 360, theorizing that the Wii U will cost more than $300 is ludicrous. Here are my main factors as to what the Wii U will cost:

• The Wii costs $149. Yes, I know it's dated hardware, but Reggie has been quoted to say that the Wii will remain on the market for a decent amount of time and that Nintendo is trying to make a "tiered" pricing scheme between the two consoles. What "tier" costs at least twice as more than their lowest option?
• The 360 costs $199, and God knows how much the 720 will cost. Nintendo is the industry's biggest fan of competitive pricing, and with the 720 rumored to hit as early as next year, Nintendo will need to stay competitive. And while the 360's been out for 5 years and its hardware has become pretty cheap to produce because of that, if the Wii U will have similar specs to a 360, then how could the Wii U possibly cost upwards of $400?
• The controller will NOT cost $100 to produce. Trust me, I know what the Chinese electronics manufacturing market is like, and making a New Controller will NOT cost $100 to produce for several reasons. It has a resistive touchscreen. It doesn't have a fast CPU nor lots (if any) of RAM (I'd imagine this would be the case, but nothing's confirmed). It doesn't have Wi-Fi (as far as we know). It doesn't have a MicroSD Card slot. Plus, the controller will be produced by the millions, resulting in a lower price. This Android tablet, for example, has all of the above features that won't be in the New Controller and only costs $58 for one unit (http://www.aliexpres...holesalers.html). The controller may cost Nintendo as low as $35-$45 to produce.
