Had a little go on it yesterday at a convention.

There is absolutely nothing wrong with the controller. It feels natural, it feels light, all the buttons are easy reach with your thumbs.

The console itself looks so great, in both colours. It's very long in the back, and the same size in width and height. It's probably a little bigger than an Xbox 360 laid flat, from left to right.

The graphics of the Wii U are absolutely crystal clear. The resolution is insane.

I also got a free keyring from Nintendo :D

I didn't bother getting any pictures, there was already so many pictures about on this forum. They were demoing (available games to actually play yourself) Pikmin 3, Zombi U, NintendoLand, New Super Mario Bros. U, and you could also try out other features like look up and down with the controller and all around side to side, like how you can in Zombi U.

I can tell you now, if you haven't preordered a Wii U, you are SOOOOO missing out. It's a beast!

I have sold my Wii U, so if I deleted you from NN before I sold it, or haven't accepted your friend request since, this is why.

I didn't get to play on any of the games unfortunately. It was just too busy. There was several screens for each game, and a queue behind each screen, also forgot to mention that I think Rayman was there, and I decided to just have a feel of what the controller was like instead and just get the hell out of there xD

Anyone remember when you preordered a psp they gave you a cardboard cut out that was the same size. That would of been cool if they would have made a gamepad cut out. :D
I posted a video on my youtube channel. The 6.5inch screen is the same size as a 3ds.

I can't help but get the feeling that I'll end up playing my games on the controller screen just before I go into bed.

It'll be like;

"Just ten minutes of this and I'll go to sleep"

*8 hours later, alarm rings*

".......fudge."
