#81903 Microsoft and Sony spoiler tactics for wii u launch?

I think that Microsoft will cut the 360 down to $179 (Or, as Pachter suggested, 360 and Kinect for $199) and really promote their existing hardware. We'll see a lot more "platinum hits" come out, and I think Microsoft will advertise the fact that the 360 has more games than any other console.

#51542 Should the WiiU have a USB3.0 on the back

Wii U Hardware
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.

Nintendo not having DLC in the Wii U would be the equivalent of kicking themselves in the genitals while chewing on a power line.
#51059 Launch Title Prediction Thread

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?

With the launch of a new console, there's always a flood of games, accessories, hardware, controllers, and just general stuff put out to cash in on day-one buyers. Given that a large percentage of the members of this forum will be buying a Wii U on day one (including myself), I thought this would be a fun thread.
Feel free to copy my format below:
Hardware
Feel free to copy my format below:
Hardware
- 1 Wii U (in black, if available)
- Call of Duty: Black Ops 2 (if available); if not available Ghost Recon Online
- Pikmin 3 (if available)
- Wii U Play (probably going to be a pack-in title, but whatever)
- Assassin's Creed III
- Whatever crazy-good launch titles Nintendo puts out
- Whatever crazy-good launch titles third parties put out
Killer Freaks From Outer Space
- If there's a new Classic Controller they put out, I might pick that up
- A headset (if the U isn't compatible with my current headset)
- A $20 eShop gift card
- Energy drinks and lots of sweets to keep me awake

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.

Actually, there were two for the GBA and two for the DS
http://en.wikipedia....ki/Advance_Wars
http://en.wikipedia....ack_Hole_Rising
http://en.wikipedia....rs:_Dual_Strike
http://en.wikipedia....s:_Days_of_Ruin
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

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:
What do you think?
- 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.
What do you think?

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.

hmm i wish you were right about it being in summer but thats not certain at all. the final version will be shown in the summer at E3. but i just saw an article reporting on a nintendo meeting and one of the results was that the wii u is likely to be released in japan in september and EU and NA in november
a summer release would of been awesome and its still possible but less likely
WHAT?!?! If Nintendo doesn't release the Operation Rainfall Trio next year, it's going to be a REALLY boring year.

I'm glad that the Wii U is coming out in the summer for two reasons:
-I just spent $70 on Skyward Sword, which could have been spent on a Wii U. I'll have more time to save up
-This will give me the ENTIRE SUMMER to play with my Wii U without thinking about school one bit
-I just spent $70 on Skyward Sword, which could have been spent on a Wii U. I'll have more time to save up

#79485 Wii U store

Wii U Games and Software
I think that the general consensus here is that the Wii U will be able to download GCN games. My only worries with this are the price and the download times (storage isn't an issue for me, 500 GB USB hard drive ftw).
In regards to pricing, I believe it's currently like this:
NES: 500 Nintendo Points/$4.99 USD
Sega Master System: 600 Nintendo Points/$5.99 USD
TurboGrafx-16: 700 Nintendo Points/$6.99 USD
Sega Genesis/Sega Mega Drive: 800 Nintendo Points/$7.99 USD
SNES: 800 Nintendo Points/$7.99 USD
N64: 1000 Nintendo Points/$9.99 USD
GCN: My guess is 1500 NP/$14.99 USD
I think they'll make a $5 jump in price because the games are a) 10x the size of a N64 game and thus require more space on the server, b ) the games are more recent, so they can charge more because you can still go into a GameStop and buy a GameCube game, and c) Nintendo likes making money. That being said, Nintendo should definitely have external storage as an option from day one. Let's break this down from a storage space point of view:
8 GB Wii U hard drive
-2 GB Wii U and Wii saves, along with some downloaded VC games
-1 GB in WiiUWare games
= the average Wii U user has roughly 5 GB of space for GameCube games. GameCube games are usually 1.3 GB, so this means the average Wii U user can fit about 3 to 4 GameCube games without external memory.
Side Note 1: I really hope Nintendo switches from blocks to MB and GB. My hard drive is 500 GB, not 32,768,000 blocks.
Side Note 2: Half of me hopes that Ninty releases all of the Wii's VC games onto the eShop on day one. Half of me thought waiting for those games to come out and seeing what came out every week was fun, and it might be fun on the Wii U as well.

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.
