Yeah. I wasn't expecting any. Didn't ever happen with any previous console, so why even bother asking?
I don't really care either way. I camped out at my local Target store, at around midnight to get my N64. With the GameCube my job prevented me from camping out, so I walked into a Best Buy and picked up an Indigo colored GCN on launch day (Black was sold out). My job still prevented me from camping out for the Wii, but I had one on reserve and walked in to my local GameStop on launch day and bought one.
This year, for the Wii U, I am hoping to camp out at Target again. The N64 was the first Nintendo console I ever bought with my own money, so it would be cool get the Wii U in the same manner. I've already let my boss know that I don't intend on working on whatever day the console launches. He's okay with that.

I doubt they're going to charge anything to play online, but if they did I'd welcome it. Perhaps then there'd be a few less idiots ruining the online experience (Mario Kart Wii is infested with cheaters these days).

Is it by any chance the game teased in the Nintendo Direct vid yesterday?
No. At least, that much wasn't obvious in the little that was shown. For example, nothing was mentioned about "survivors" or scanning zombies.

What about a Yoshi game? There's a possibility since the last Yoshi game was a remake of yoshi's island, so I think it's time for a new Yoshi game.
Would you be excited if a Yoshi game were released for the Wii U?
Meh. Yoshi's Island 3 and we'll talk... Maybe. I'd rather see that on the 3DS, though. Using 2D sprites, just like the SNES game... But that's just me.
#72819 Wii U to support directx 11? let's talk

As someone who works in the technology industry I think the likelihood of this happening is extremely low. First of all, DirectX is a Microsoft proprietary technology. For anyone to use it, they'd need to be running a Windows based OS, which I seriously doubt Nintendo will run on the Wii U.
What is more likely is using the latest OpenGL technology.
You can see OpenGL compared to DirectX on Youtube:
(Left side of video is OpenGL and right side is DirectX 11)
As you can see, there is very little difference.

When the Wii U Pro Controller was uneiled I screamed with glee, like a little school girl. Love it! It's obvious that I'm going to buy it on launch day, assuming it's available, I just have one question. Will it be available in black immediately or am I going to have to buy it twice (once in white and then again in black)?
...Because buying my Wii Remotes all over again, in black, was a crime. My wallet cried so hard.

I can't really trust the source, so I will simply wait to see what is said at E3. Thank you for bringing this to my attention, though. It's a pretty awesome rumor, especially if it turns out to be true. We'll know soon enough.

I want the deluxe for two reasons. First, it comes in black. Second, I get a discount on digital purchases. Nothing else about it really means much to me.

Microsoft has Smart Glass and Sony has the Vita. I don't know how amazing those products will be, but I'm pretty sure they can offer a very similar experience. They can compete just fine with Nintendo's Wii U.
#98422 Wii U Box Case CONFIRMED!

Lame. I hate that box case design... But I've started to keep the games and cases seperate from each other, so that the cases stay nice and fresh (no scratches or other wear on them). The game discs are kept in a CD wallet. I guess the ugly cases don't really matter. I won't be looking at them much.

#100445 I want Zelda U to have motion controls

Wii U Games and Software
I could be okay with or without motion controls, especially if they are optional.
While I enjoyed Syward Sword, I think there is still a long way to go with that motion sensing technology. I found the Wii Remote Plus to be too sensitive and I don't like how I had to readjust it more often than I care to. The interface needs work (like selecting items), but beyond that I think the controls are fine. I think the option to play the "classic" way would be good too. Gives gamers who don't care for the motion controls the chance to enjoy the game with everyone else.

We just saw the Wii U in the Nintendo Direct video and it wasn't redesigned, so I'm pretty sure it's not happening.
Well... 90% sure. Who knows, maybe what we saw in that video wasn't the final hardware, but I doubt that's the case.

Besides the console itself, and maybe an extra Wii U controller (depending on whether or not 2 can be used simultaneously), not much else. One game for sure, but which one will depend on what I like the most at E3 this year.
I'd like to be able to purchase a first party title, like Mario. I don't know for sure that there will be a Mario launch title, though. Hopefully E3 will clarify this.
If there aren't any good Mario games at launch then I'll be forced to buy something 3rd party, but I don't know if there are any 3rd party launch titles I can get excited about yet. I haven't seen any good ones on the confirmed launch title list so far. Again, have to wait and see what really grabs my attention at E3.
