I wish Pikmin 3 were a launch game. It would be no question that THAT would be the game I would buy.

don't you mean paper mario 2? and yes I agree sunshine should be there.

Now, I am not sure if this has already been confirmed or not, but now it definitetly has. Nintendo confirmed video chat on their website: http://www.nintendo.com/wiiu it's at the bottom.

Here's a copy paste:

Wii U Features

In addition to introducing new ways to play, Wii U also offers users a variety of non-gaming features to enhance the overall experience.

• Miiverse: Miiverse is a brand-new network communication system that lets gamers from around the world share experiences, discuss games and discover new content. Using their personalized Mii character, players enter Miiverse and see games, applications or entertainment content that either they have interacted with recently, expressed interest in learning more about or that their friends are using or discussing. From here they can challenge their friends to play together, ask a question about a difficult level or discover new elements of their favorite games they never knew existed. After a notable achievement or other share-worthy moment, players can pause their game or application and seamlessly post messages to the Miiverse community.
• TV Remote: The Wii U GamePad controller may also function as an infrared TV remote, whether users are watching TV or playing a game.
• Near Field Communication (NFC): The Wii U GamePad has the ability to communicate wirelessly with objects that are held above it. This allows for a variety of interesting new possibilities for games and activities.
• Nintendo eShop: The digital storefront for Wii U will be available at launch and offer a variety of content for people to download and enjoy. Consumers will also be able to purchase and download select games that are also available at retail stores.
• Video Entertainment: Nintendo is working with Netflix, Hulu Plus, Amazon Instant Video, and YouTube to bring video experiences to Wii U that will take advantage of the integrated second-screen experience. Additional details will be released at a later time.
• Video Chat: Using the built-in camera of the Wii U GamePad, people can communicate with other Wii U owners in real time.
• Internet Browser: Wii U comes with a browser that lets people with a wireless Internet connection surf the Internet from the comfort of their couches.

It also seems like you can pause the game at any time to add a message to miiverse.

oh yeah. Well, take this as a reminder. And don't forget that I said maybe games can be paused at any time to add a message to miiverse, which would be awesome.
I love that commercial, btw.

Yes I want it! Don't be negative just b/c the last game was bad! I want another game like the first 2, or even like Super Paper Mario which wasn't that bad. 

 

Those graphics would be beautiful!

I got the Zelda 3ds (love it!) and the Blue 3ds xl. 

I love them both the most, but I chose the Aqua blue 3ds b/c it looks pretty in the picture. Blue is my favorite color.

I hope they announce pokemon 3ds or something! Although, pretty unusually to announce a game by magezine.

So when the PS3 sells bad it's horrible, but when the Wii U sells like this it's just fine?

Our point is the wii U has a chance to be as popular as the PS3.

Melee

I hope they give us something like that, but at the same time I don't know if it's really necessary. We're not really losing anything if we would have bought it later anyway(unless they drop the price).

It's about the strategy and speed you use to get to the items and take down the enemies. Killing the enemies gives you more pikmin which help you get to new areas faster. You can choose a lot of different paths to go on. It's really, really fun, and I think Pikmin 3 will be the best game this year.

This is different, but I noticed in scribblenauts you can give a wife to a lonely female ghost who wants to have a wedding, and it works. They didn't have to do that, but it was nice.

Paper Mario and 007

I like the idea of a co-op mode. If you guys have played little big planet you may remember the 2 player areas where you could get extra stuff. They could have something like that except it could be more hidden. Like, a hidden entrance like you have to jump off a tree and wall jump into a special red pipe. Once you enter the new area you would have to work together to get past obstacles. Or it could be a race like somebody said.

I've been playing pretty much nintendo-only my entire life, but for a few games(kingdom hearts, okami). Nintendo games always seem to outshine other 3rd party games. I also have Scribblenauts on wii u(although I kind of want to trade it in or something, as it doesn't have much replayability). 

looks how creepy these controller people look

"We would like to play"

That sentence has no punctuation.

I'd rather have a themed room than a bathroom, but still awesome! I think they didn't show the rest because it wasn't decked out.

The worlds are definitely not interesting and not a step up. They are boring and the game has pretty much no story in the only 2 worlds I bothered to complete. I hated it.

I wish the US site were this good!

all i want is for the supply to meet demand, what a shame it would be if there was more than 10 million demand but they couldn't make enough in time

yes

Are you surrounded by 10 year olds or something that you would worry? lol - I will be sharing - all my friends and close family are over the age of 21 and all gamers...so I trust them. My 8 year old has been taught well, so I can even trust her . I've had friends and family over literally every night since launch and we been going crazy with NSMBU, sonic racing, nintendo land, and king of zombies mode in Zombi U!

Well, 11 and 14-year old cousins, and I am 14. It's just that my cousins are rough with people ( Like my cousin GRABS food from people at lunch and thinks its funny. And she has punched me) They need to prove themselves to be mature before I let their hands near it.

I'm in a dilemma and I don't want anyone to break it.

I understand your dilemma then. I'd say its one of those things where..either you don't play at all or let them play with it...or be a jerk I guess lol. I'd be king of the gamepad though in your situation..I think then there wouldn't be much damage they can do.

I decided just to replace it with the Wii... if they ask me why I'll say I wasn't ready to share it yet because it was really expensive.

This game IS the reason I bought wii u. I can't wait!
