Translation:
Wii U had suffered the past a lack of games a year, with widely spaced outlets. The beginning of the year 2014 was also quiet, what will happen after the release of Mario Kart 8? Many games release will be formalized at the show at E3, but you already know that we out action game Bayonnetta 2. By the end of the year, there will also be the new Skylanders, the new Disney Infinity, Sonic Boom, Watch Dogs or Zelda Hyrule Warriors. And on the output side of games produced by Nintendo, there will obviously be the fighting game Super Smash Bros.. E3 is also an opportunity to show the use of NFC technology [used in Skylanders and Disney Infinity, allowing the use of real objects - here, figurines - in video games] in Nintendo consoles . The NFC will be used in the Wii U version of Super Smash Bros.

I'm hoping that they're going to bring out a Mario galaxy 3 style game where you can load characters like Link and even Bayonetta into it. Maybe even allow these figures into Mario Kart and at least some into NSMBU and SM3DW so you pay $12 for a figurine BUT it counts as DLC for lots of nintendo games

Not sure if gusta.

 

On one hand, this could be cool if it were an optional thing. Kinda like how the majority of KI:U's AR cards were.

On the other, if this is required to unlock stuff in the game, it's gonna suck.

This. An idea I had was using these figurines similar to the KI:U AR cards. Sakurai worked on both, so it's possible.

Some people always have a cellphone on them. I'm so awesome I always have a 3DS.

I'm pretty sure sakurai is against stuff like that if it's required to unlock stuff.

They're gonna be used to transfer data between the Wii U and 3DS versions.

Eh, seeing as it's Nintendo, I'm not all that worried. Just a thought though.

Very cool. And these figurines will also be able to be used for other titles too? I heard that is the case. Imagine transferring custom move sets to a figurine and taking it to your friends house. Kind of cool. 

 

This will be something I will not only collect but make good use of.

I agree with the talking clock... Not sure if want... Does the article say anything about what specifically they'll be used for? If it's required to get them, I'm gonna be kinda mad...

An earlier article stated the NFC figurines would be used across multiple games so I doubt it will be a "requirement".

I could easily see this... Especially since they were so secretive to how the custom move sets worked in the Direct, maybe they're holding out until NFP is officially unveiled to talk about it.
