Whenever a new piece of technology is anticipated people's expectations go through the roof and defy logic. But there's a few misconceptions that I want to address because they seem popular. So, all of the following things in relation to the Wii U are very, very, very unlikely:
- There'll be more shown off on September 13th. Nintendo is holding a press conference on the 13th of September. They haven't said it's a 3DS-centric event, but I'm sure it will be. We're coming up to the first Christmas for the 3DS and shifting focus to their other platform would be a bad idea.
- Smash Bros. will be coming out soon. Nope. It hasn't even started development yet. That means even if your idea of "soon" is two years from now, you could be expecting too much. Sakurai said he will take all the time he needs, and I expect he will.
- All of Nintendo's problems will disappear. Nintendo is adamant to say the Wii U will have plenty of third party support, a great online system and will be the system for everyone. But if it were that simple, it would have been done already. I'd expect the classic Nintendo-based problems to stick around, just maybe in a less prevalent form.
But that's just speculation on my part. Who knows, I could be way off. On that note though, what do you think people are expecting in regards to the Wii U that will only leave them disappointed for doing so?
