It's no secret, Nintendo loves peripherals, and with good reason too. In 1985 when the NES was released they had a whole slew of peripherals at launch, this helped them a lot with the value of the system. Ever since then its been something they would frequently do; The SNES and the Super Game Boy, the N64 and the rumble pack, the game cube and the game boy player, and more recently the wii with a very large amount of peripherals. This has become something Nintendo always does at their conferences; if they aren't talking about a new console/handheld, they are talking about a new peripheral for an existing platform. So it only makes sense that should do the same for Wii U.

My question to you is, what do you think they will make as peripherals for the Wii U? Be creative, and original please.

(Also, what happened to the vitality sensor Nintendo!?)

I was once known here as KillerMario, but since I really like Banjo-Kazooie, I changed my display name to show them my respect :)

Hahahahahahahhaha, but a personal sandwich maker would be Waaaayyyyy cooler than this, as long as it supports mayonaise( unlike the PS4 one)
But seriously I want a gamepad grip, a cover for it (so I don't break it) and expandable RAM to go into a USB drive. Just or say its there.

I think you might want to look at his topic for covers http://thewiiu.com/t...-u-accessories/

I think a great peripheral might be a "DS player". Seriously, make a little port on the bottom of the game pad you can plug a cartridge into and play DS games between the two screens!

LCD screen for Wiimote. This is Nintendo's idea, but I doubt it will ever come to the market.

kinda building on the ds one here but on the back of the wii u in the usb you could put a 3ds/ds game slot and the 3d tv could be the main screen and gamepad
would be the touch screen

DS games would look so trash on giant screens.

Trophy Cards are classy too! LOLZIGZAGOON

I would really like something so you can play DS games on the big screen!

Hi, my name is Alph. I live on a planet named Koppai. I am famous for saving my planet from starvation. My best friends are Brittany and Captain Olimar, NOT Captain Charlie. I like surfing the KopNet and playing Kopetball.

They'd end up being ports, potentially crappy ports depending on the game.

Just gives people more ammunition to hate.

The 3D ones would most likely not look as great but think about the 2D ones, they would look good, they did for the GameBoy Player on Gamecube.
