The new XBox will be more powerfull, because it'll come out atleast one year later. The new PS will be more powerfull, because it'll come out.... When will it come out? No one actually knows. Sony learned of their PS3 mistake though, I'm guessing they will keep the production costs relatively low this time. I wouldn't be suprised if it took even more than two years from now before a new Sony console will come out. I'm not too familiar with their statistics (moneywise), but do they have enough right now to invest in such an expensive project?

The Xbox, as said, will be more powerfull. The rumours state the same, but well.. They are rumours, so they don't mean that much to me. I'm thinking it will come out at the end of 2013, a year after the WiiU. The difference in power won't be much at all and barely noticable while gaming I think. It's nothing like the Wii compared to the Xbox/PS3,

I couldn't care less though, about which console will be the most powerfull one. It's fun to speculate, but it won't affect my gameplay experience in any way.

Welcome to the Wii U forums I hope you like it here.(Like everyone else) So you like Mario Pokemon AC and Doom. Ive "played" all of them except Doom. Its a FPS right? I heard about it somewhere.

You haven't played Doom, one of the most influential game in the FPS genre? Hehe, I remember when being a kid I played Doom I and II. Great fun. It was the first game ever I played on a pc, back in 1994 I think.

Anyway, thanks for the warm welcome everyone

Gold/Silver was my favorite games till B/W. I just feel that B/W felt more like a proper sequel to R/B/G/Y then G/S. B/W I was actually prepared to hate when I saw the new designs. But I didn't, instead I loved it. I count it in my favorite games of all time, not up there with Okami, Knights of the Old Republic, Radiant Historia, Tales of Symphonia, and Final Fantasy VI, but on the same level as Epic Mickey, Glory of Heracles, and Skyward Sword.

There's probably some nostalgia involved, I used to play G/S with a friend a lot while babysitting. Great fun, great times. I think G/S just had more impact on me at that time, than B/W had now. Might be my age aswell, older people are getting harder to satisfy I guess hehe. Still, I like B/W a lot and the design aswell. I bloody well hope the WiiU will get a Stadium-like game to support this and the previous generation. A complete maingame for the WiiU would be even better ofcourse, but that's just dreaming out loud ^^,.

At the moment none really, perhaps Sega. But even Sega messed up with their service regarding the modding community (Empire: Total War, Napoleon: Total War, Shogun 2: Total War), so I kinda grew a disliking to them aswell. It used to be Activision for a long time, back in the Soldier of Fortune days, but well.. Kinda needless to say, they are idiots now.

Nintendo 64 (normal)
Nintendo 64 Pikachu Edition (how cute)
NES (though it's having problems lately, perhaps have to buy a new old one)
Wii.

Never had money as a kid for the GC, so never owned it or even tried it.

Handhelds I have:

Gameboy Colour
Gameboy Advance
3DS

Easy, no one beats Conker.



He is funny, cruel, loves babes, loves alcohol and loves to kill teddybears. What else can you possibly want more?

I played all Gen I, II, IV and V games and to be honest, I think gen II was the best. It felt so original and the difference between Gen I and Gen II was the biggest one I have noticed, to be honest. I really loved the added pokemon aswell, aswell as being able to play in two worlds. Can't judge gen III though B&W is good, great perhaps.. but I think one of the most important things was missing: Battle Haxway together with a friend. I'd love to kick the AI's cheating ass with my brother, but I simply can't cause he lives far away. This was a major letdown for me. Hope Grey or whatever it is will have this option.I hope there will be two worlds again aswell, but I kinda doubt it.

I'm guessing it will cost around €350 euro. The console seems rather innovative and it's really a major improvement (graphics wise, controller wise) over the Wii. I remember the PS3 coming out for €600,-, which is a darn lot. It was at that time the most powerful console and that was reflected in the price. They had to sell it with loss.. I'm quite sure the production costs will be lower than the PS3 at that time, but I can't imagine the gap being any smaller than €150,-, also with the new controller in mind.

I'll probably buy it right away if it's between €300,- and €400,-, but I certainly will not go any higher. I can't spend that much and the games themselve are idiotic expensive aswell.

Pokemon Stadium-like game. One that supports both Gen IV and Gen V games, with up to date battle animations, tournaments, cup games and most of all: great online functionality. Battling gamers and trainers around the world should be rewarding and fun. To keep a community alive, they need to reward those gamers by giving tm's for example, pokemon with hidden abillities, whatever. Perhaps link the game with Global Link, that'd be nice.

Pokemon main series game. Something that won't happen in the near future, as Nintendo wants to keep the mainseries portable only. However, a full 3d game with a mainstory, with grass where you can find and catch and train pokemon, gym battles, trainers (perhaps even online trainers, in the style of a mmorpg), a beautiful world and landscape.. You name it. I guess many are wishing for something like this, in vain.

Pokemon Snap (yea, pokemon fan aye?). Same as before, a full 3d world where you can go whereever you want, with great interaction with the world and the little creatures who live there. I'd def. buy it.

Mario, in the style of Mario 64. 3d with updated graphics, a new kind of story would be nice and with all the suits and perks we have seen troughout the history of Mario.

Conker, e.g. sequel to Conker's Bad Fur Day. Probably the best game for the N64 ever was this game and darn, we (I!) need a new one. Too bad Rare is in the hands of Microsoft, so this one is probably not going to be there aswell.

Descruction Derby 64 sequel. Probably not the best received N64 game, nor very popular. It has great potential, I find racing itself rather boring.. However, race and smash other cars? Darn, that's nice! Something with a lot of potential.

Assassin's Creed series, but these will come to the WiiU. Thank the Lord!

Yugioh series should have a nice game aswell, not some linear 2d animations, but 3d aswell. I'd like that.

Perfect Dark game, yea well.. Who doesn't remember this game? Never played the single player myself (shame on me), so I'd love to have a new chance

Mortal Kombat.. Yea, I need to blow some steam off once in a while. I just hope this game isn't too bloody for Nintendo. I'm a lesser fan of the Street Fighter series, but there are welcome if MK can't make it.

Perhaps an Elder Scrolls game, but I found Skyrim rather... boring when it comes to the story. ES with great story seems good.

Nintendo World Cup-similar game. God I love this game for the NES, unique gameplay, so much fun especially with friends. It's not on Virtual Console so far, so why not make a brand new game? Darn you Nintendo, make it! Create it, build it!

That's it what I came up with right now.. *dreams on*

You'll see me around, GeC. I'llt ry not to confuse you with the other GC's, should be able to do that ^^, *gonna lurk around the forums a bit now*

Hi there people. Well, I'll keep it short. New to the forums, I'm here to watch the news regarding the upcoming WiiU (or whatever the name will eventually be) and talk a bit about it when I am in the mood See you all.
