I checked out the topic on the site myself and he seems like a developer yet not a big developer. The question is if he is not a big developer how did he get all this info and why share it? I think I will make a profile on the site to see his profile.

It sounds all over the place. Even after you bypass the shaky translations,

bullet point by bullet point, it doesn't really make all that much sense.

No, the supposed "developer" himself didn't post that. Rather another person (the one that posted it) claims that he contacted hi through pm or chat and that the "developer" told him all that information and he just organised it and put it in bullet points.

Come to thing of it their "chat" might prove the clues to uncover if he is telling the truth or not; I better contact that guy.

His username is Mudkip98 there is a ton of info on his profile page. He joined about a year ago and is not a Mod or an Admin, but he seems to be trustworthy

I will try to get info on him to see if he is really is a developer. So far I have this from his profile page.

Re: Informazioni sul Wii U

Infine a differenza di quanto possiate pensare il controller non disporrà dei Trigger come nel DualShock3 e nel controller della XBOX 360. Oddio, davvero? Questo mi dispiace profondamente. Per il resto: puoi dirmi qualcosa su Killers from Outer Space? Mi interesserebbe sapere come sta andando il su... by Developer1 Today, 13:10 Forum: Nintendo Kingdom Topic: Informazioni sul Wii U Replies: 41 Views: 431

Informazioni sul Wii U

Salve a tutti, sono uno sviluppatore di Ubisoft Milano. Ho seguito molto di recente la situazione del Nintendo Wii U, vorrei diffondere con voi alcune informazioni che la Nintendo ci ha fatto sapere. Molto probabilmente però non dureranno a lungo, ma ci provo lo stesso. Il Wii U ha 2 giga di RAM, 56...

Remember: for the times I don't know what time zone they refer to; I am guessing that they refer to whatever time zone Italy is in right now.

Tell me who gave the quote. As far as we know we can put this as an anonymous rumor!

Has no means of communication been confirmed? The system should have online voice chat in this day and age. I find it odd that people are just accepting the Wii U's issues when they should be wanting more from Nintendo.

They didn't say anything about the systems capabilities they just said no online multiplayer for Pikmin 3. Why are you so negative?

"RTS" is real-time strategy, but the RTS games that I recall playing took based in turns. Battle of Wesnoth is an example of a turn-based RTS game. There are differnet kinds of RTS games - Pikmin is an action game, but definitely has RTS elements.

Maybe I'm not giving technology credit, but we're already experiencing lag with online multiplayer titles that have 16 players - do you think that it could handle 100s of characters syncing with playable lag?

Battle of Wesnoth is a Turn-based strategy game not a RTS.

People look at the facts. This is launch people of course the graphics are going to run at current gen performance. But after launch, in 2013 , the games will look like pc. The launch titles ARE awesome if you look away from Wii Fit U and Sing. Those titles are only meant for the casuals! Look at these launch titles, which are not even close to all of them and tell me that they suck.

Directly from the Nintendo All-Access page:

Wow, way to highlight the most negative quote in the entire article there, CVG.

If you read the article, Iwata talks about Miiverse being a "foundation to build Nintendo's online from". Miiverse is clearly already ahead of XBL and PSN in some ways. Improved upon, it could definitely become the most comprehensive and social-focused online network a console has ever had. We've already had confirmation of friends lists, messaging, full downloadable retail games, eShop, DLC capabilities, etc. The only bad information we have regarding Nintendo Network is that Reggie said "friend codes" would return in some form, and we have yet to find out what he meant exactly by that.

Don't worry about it guys. This article is just fishing for page views, like pretty much everyone in video game journalism does. The reality is much better than the title makes it seem.

He meant that you could turn one of your "friends" into a "best friend" who you can video chat with and do other extra things with.

Yes, but he also said that the Wii U's online is taking a different approach then other companys.

Now let us compare with The Zedla Tech demo make in weeks with old dev kits



Yeah, I think the Wii U can run Unreal 4

I hope they know what they're doing here. I think Nintendo tends to very grossly underestimate the sheer value that hardware/processing power has in a gaming console. There was a lot of opportunity here for Wii U to be the first true next-gen console, even WITH the tablet controller draining resources. I'm pretty dissapointed that Nintendo has gone for a low power route yet again, but circumstances are different to how they were when the Wii launched, and it could end up turning out much better in the long run.

NINTENDO IS SAYING THAT NINTENDO IS NOT MAKING A LEAP LIKE PS2 TO PS3 THEY ARE MAKING A LEAP LIKE SEGA SATURN TO DREAMCAST.

That explains Metroid Prime 3.

It is a squeal to a game that THEY made.

You seem pretty certain about something that is only rumoured.

Retro usually make games for series that were NOT on the last gen of consoles. Metriod and Donkey Kong Country for instance. Both Star Fox and F-zero fit this bill.

Well, the presentation is not over yet, remember Nintendo All Access. Nintendo's presentation was awesome but the awesome bits were scattered around and the spaces were filled with less exiting bits. I will show you the awesome parts now.

See this in 720p guys.

I got more!

The GameCube was a sales failure but it won the hearts of many Nintendo fans over. It saw excellent entries in the Mario, Zelda, Pokemon, Mario Kart, Starfox, Smash Bros, franchises. It saw the revival of Metroid in the criticially acclaimed Metroid Prime 1& 2. It saw a brand new IP in Pikmin and it's sequel. It got decent third party support for most of its life (it got all the FIFA's, NHL's, Maddens, Soul Calibur II, Sonic games, Resident Evil 4, etc). It was graphically capable with it's competitors and it had a normal controller with awesome triggers and comfort. No gimmicks. When it was revealed at E3 2001 they showed Pikmin, Super Smash Bros. Melee, Luigi's Mansion, Wave Race, Star Fox Adventures and Eternal Darkness.

Wii U showed us Pikmin 3 and NSMBU. No new IP's, nothing from their most talented studios (EAD Tokyo 1 of Super Mario Galaxy 1 fame, Retro, Monolith, etc.) It has no identity, it is a tablet but also a controller. Do they want the core or casuals? Because that conference was 95% casual with the first 10 minutes or so dedicated to us. There was no graphical showcase of a game, no teaser trailers, no gameplay trailers of core games, nothing! What have they done for 1 year? They have 3 first party studios that havent relesed a game in 2+ years (the 3 I mentioned above, EAD 1 actually hasn't made a new game since 2007). You're telling me none of those studios had even a 30 second trailer of alpha footage or a cgi trailer two years into development time?

Project P-100 is a new ip isn't it?

Well, its probably not the full graphic power because the first one is a port and the second one the development was moved for Wii to Wii U. The graphics are pretty good never the less.

Yeah I am trying to be positive.

Assasins Creed is not a port.

Well, its like a super upgaded port.

Nintendo: We don't care what you are doing.

Sony and Microsoft: Well we don't care either.

LATER

Sony: What do the satellites say Iwata is doing now?

Microsoft: Eating a sandwich.

Sony: Write that down!

The reason why third parties won't develop for Nintendo is because they are so sucessful without their help that they are afraid of being overshadowed by Nintendo's ips if they make AAA titles for Nintendo systems.

Yes, they did.

Only fanboys use all caps.

Anyone know if reports on Sony's losses are Game-subsidiary specific or the company as a whole?

Every electronics division that Sony owns is losing money. They break the world record of biggest annual loss year after year. If they overprice and overpower the PS4 the ENTIRE company is dead.

You're basically asking if Sony wants to exist or not.
