Welcome!! I too am not strictly nintendo and third party games make up most of my time gaming but to see the innovation of nintendo, and their awesome exclusives and third party games all in one place was just incredible so I had to pre-order my Wii U. Lets just hope the strong third party support lasts for a good 5 years or more.
By the way, I'm a moderator here so if you have any questions or problems ask me, and please read the rules which you can find here:

Unfortunately, I contacted Activision about Nuketown 2025 and they said it's not currently available as a pre-order bonus for Wii U (despite them previously saying it was), but it could happen in the future; this is the most up to date information on it.

NSMBU has a higher resolution, but my impression judging from looks, it seems galaxy has higher polygon counts which to me is usually more important

We (EU) got Skyward Sword first, Heroes of ruin first, NSMB2 first, 3DS XL first, and I think a few other things too. I thought Europe might get Wii U first as well but sadly, we have to wait 12 days longer

I never ever would have guessed that they'd do this!! The map on the other hand sounds incredible!! Can't wait for this game, but I will be very disappointed in Rockstar if it doesn't come to the Wii U

Because of the flat battery pack?
No because the D-Pad is far superior and the positioning of both analogue sticks at the top is better in my opinion and yes it is lighter as well. Also, it's not as bulky which is one of my complaints about the 360 controller.

As someone who's used one, I think it's better than the 360 controller (and I own a 360).

Awesome!! If you're reading Ubisoft, thank you so much!! If you support Wii U fully, that's pretty much 50% of my favourite third party games on the system already 
Watchdogs, Splinter Cell and if I've got extra cash, Rainbow Six will all be pre ordered by me, please let me pre order a Wii U version of those games

I took my hat off to them at E3 2011, haven't put it back on since. Now I just want confirmation of splinter cell, rainbow six and watch dogs for Wii U, then I will be extremely happy

The resolution part makes perfect sense, if it means what I think it does. Wii U - Native 720p. PS360 - Upscaled to 720p

Wii U Games and Software
IGN says Ubisoft confirmed to them that the Anthology does in fact exist but they didn't give details about platforms. there is a reasonable chance we won't get it since they would have to port all the games to wii u whilst they don't need to do that for ps360

I'm 99% sure that Reggie confirmed this to be the start up screen for all people who have an internet connection. As for the gamepad, its extremely likely the touch screen will have a button somewhere that lets you take this screen and put it on the controller then you can go on from there.

Whether she wants it or not, she's going to love it. It appeals to everyone!! unless you hate gaming but then a 360 wouldn't be any better

I'm really interested in this game, and the more I think about it the more I wanna get it. I'm getting ACIII for Wii U also, should I wait until I finish that to get Darksiders II?
If you're set on getting both, then get them at the same time, no point in waiting until you finish one; unless you haven't completely made up your mind

Introduction Central
Welcome!! Glad to see (but not surprised) that Nintendo is bringing those who didn't like the wii back to them. I loved the wii but still there was a roughly 2 year period when I barely played it. The Wii U I don't think will ever have that problem but why do you think the wii u's life span will only be three years? there is nothing to indicate that as far as I'm aware and there is nothing to indicate the ps4 and xbox720 will be more powerful by much. Quite the contrary really. I'm a moderator here so if you have any problems just message me or one of the other mods.
