They'd tone her down, like they did with Snake in Brawl. Keep in mind that SSB is a teen-rated franchise, too.Bayonetta would be cool, but she's too suggestive.

#47481 Wii U Price Discussion

- 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.

- 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 $249 3DS launch price
- Who doesn't like cheaper stuff?
#38269 Wii U Price Discussion
Posted by CaptainFalco311 on 23 October 2011 - 12:02 PM in Wii U Hardware
My guess is 299$ - 399$. Nintendo knows that it can't be too high (599 US Dollars anyone?), but it also can't be too low because it will mean less power = no solid next gen console.
Anyway, if they stay at that price, the PS4 and Xbox 720 will have to be more expensive to beat that hardware, and it will be too expensive and they will fail.
Fanboys who says that it will be beaten by PS4 and Xbox 720 easily are wrong, it will be too expensive, so as long Nintendo makes it somewhere between 300-400 they will be just fine.
Anything over $300 would be ridiculous. Here's why:
SNES was originally $199, and the Genesis (its biggest rival) cost the same price. The SNES was more powerful than the Genesis.
N64 was $199, and the Playstation was $299 at launch. The N64 was more powerful than the Playstation.
Gamecube was $199, and the PS2 was $299 at launch. The Gamecube was more powerful than the PS2.
Now, if the rumors are true that the Wii U is anywhere from 50%-500% more powerful than a PS3, that doesn't necessarily mean that it will be the most expensive console. Nintendo has never had the most expensive console on the market. Sony learned from the PS3 that consumers won't pay $500 for technology that won't mature for another 3 years. Microsoft knows that the lowest they'll go on a console launch is $299. This means that Nintendo will NOT have a $300 launch price, because they strive for the lowest price (and when they don't-3DS, anyone?-they suffer badly). This leaves my final guesstimate at anywhere from $250-$280.

This is what I made. Will make a newer version soon, but this is what I've created so far in Photoshop. Hope you like it!
This. I think that ArnarFB's design looked great, but it just didn't look Nintendo enough. I could see his design being the PS4's menu, but not the Wii U's menu. I think that your design is the perfect blend of Nintendo-ness and modern-ness. If I could change anything in your design at all, I'd...
- Remove the disc menu icon in the bottom segment and replace it with a Nintendo Network menu icon
- Replace the "New at Nintendo eShop" space with a space for playing disc games. You could even have the disc swing in like the Wii
- Replace "Top Games" with "My Games"; leave it a space for downloaded stuff. I liked the Wii Shop Channel's design where it would show on the channel icon what's new in the eShop
- Show your Nintendo Network info somewhere, including your Mii, new messages, and achievements
- Add arrows to the bottom section so you can scroll through the app icons

Yep that looks like the controller menu.
I'm still sticking with the idea that the controller menu will be very minimal.

On a semi-related topic, why is Nintendo giving us FOUR USB ports when the only confirmed accessory that uses it is the New Controller? If they really are going to allow only one NC at a time, then why include four ports? Controlled, anyone?

#56110 What will Wii U game covers look like?
Posted by CaptainFalco311 on 21 January 2012 - 07:55 AM in Wii U Games and Software
I hope the Wii U doesn't use those recycle cases. I mean it is nice to save the plastic, but it makes the cases flimsier.
The games deserve to be put in a quality case!
I don't have a problem with the Eco-Cases. Yeah, they may feel flimsy, but on a shelf, they fit in fine (and it's only the disc that really matters, not the case)

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.

agreed
the black ones should have a more hardcore look of the logo too , a different font maybe
Absolutely not. You don't want to confuse the consumer too much; enough people are confused by the "U" already.
