#131325 ZombiU's a remake?
Posted by Eggplante! on 17 November 2012 - 06:51 AM in Wii U Games and Software
A reboot is changing major components like gameplay, graphics, audio, and the overall game. Much like Kid Icarus.

#132852 Wii-U box not sealed

#132486 Wii-U box not sealed

In any case, there is nothing to worry about. All the packages are unsealed, as is usually the case with Nintendo hardware, and there is only tape on the black units.
#132482 Wii U unboxing video thread
Posted by Eggplante! on 18 November 2012 - 01:40 PM in Wii U Hardware
I'm uploading mine now, should be up soon
Looking forward to it! IGN always has good coverage of this kind of stuff (and they're usually first), but it's always awesome to see how gamers comment on the unboxing while they do it.

Nope, the 3DS charger doesn't fit either. Just checked

#130955 Wii U Unboxing
Posted by Eggplante! on 16 November 2012 - 02:16 PM in Wii U Hardware
You opened it up at the wrong side. Supposed to open it up with the little holes in the cardboard. That was hardly a review anyway.
It wasn't a review, it was an unboxing. Nintendo has embargoed all reviews on Wii U hardware until 12:01am PST on Sunday, November 18th. It's also why you won't see any visuals of the Wii U turned on from anyone other than Nintendo themselves until the first software update is released.
#131323 wii u system review in progress
Posted by Eggplante! on 17 November 2012 - 06:48 AM in Wii U Hardware
Either way, you need to keep in mind that IGN's review is in fact a review in progress, and you'll notice they're not really commenting on hardware and rather making vague impressions at this point.
Nintendo has actually embargoed the media from releasing hardware reviews until 12:01 PST on Sunday morning, and there's no way IGN will break that.
It is dangerous to read a review of a product half-way through, because there is a lot that could surprise in the first few days. Of course, there is also the fact that IGN is just one site. Imagine if all you read was GameSpot's Skyward Sword review and how you might think the game isn't nearly as good as it really is.

#134470 Wii U Pro Controller Review
Posted by Eggplante! on 20 November 2012 - 08:07 AM in Wii U Hardware
nice little review .
On a side note, would it be possible to use the Pro controller with pc games, like you're able to do with a 360 controller?
We haven't tested anything yet, but our guess is that the USB cable only draws power, not data. Also, drivers would have to be written to utilize the buttons. You can't connect it wirelessly since it uses a Wii U-specific frequency for data transfer, but theoretically, it would be possible if the USB cable carries data.

I've got articles coming discussing the real pros and cons of the GamePad as a TV remote as well as plenty of game reviews starting tomorrow!
Should I keep posting them up? I don't want anyone to think I'm just here to spam!

This will probably be the Wii's last remodel ( excluding color variants and bundles), considering they've cut pretty much every corner they can. The only thoughts I could imagine for another remodel would be to make the console memory smaller, which sounds possible. But not for an entire new remodel, maybe in the really late days of the Wii ( 2014ish?), they downsize the memory.
Nintendo will continue selling the original Wii (in full-size or 'mini' form) until holiday 2013. They'll probably announce final production just after next holiday season this year and kill the console so that they can compete in every market - last-gen and next-gen - against Microsoft and Sony's consoles (assuming they're out next year). Also, after that season, Nintendo will be able to say that the Wii has surpassed the 100,000,000 mark of units sold, assuming they can get another two and a half million out by then. That should be doable because they've been doing about 3-5 million units per year for the past little while.

The only market I can see for this is the crowd that wants to play GameCube games because they can't do that on their Wii U. Of course, that is a feature that Nintendo could take out of the Wii Mini or whatever it's called.
Given that the console hasn't been announced and the Wii U hasn't been out for more than a few weeks, we just don't see this happening. Then again, more bizarre things have happened before.
#139559 Wii Mini

If you read the wording closely, it says that it's a Canada exclusive through the holidays. Which means that it will be brought to other territories at the beginning of the new year I presume.
Or it means that it won't even be in Canada after the holidays. At which point it'll be worth even more.
