can I ask you something? Or I may request more information about, ORIGIN + Wii U. If nintendo decides to do that, I am afraid I will not buy it! And I cant imagine origin inside a console, that also makes phone calls + notes + external HDD, credit cards!!.. Here are the origin rules. (I've made some lines with bold, to point in some critical informations).

Why must they be so greedy. Seriously? That is an invasion of our privacy. They don't need to know every little thing about you. I agree with you. If this how EA is going to be then I'd rather see someone else, like Valve, come to Wii U instead.

There has been no confirmation whatsoever of Origin being on the Wii U.

Origin won't actually be the Wii U's online system, EA might be helping out with the system, but Nintendo will probably run it on their own, why would they stick to one Company when they want all developers on board?

Infact, why am I even arguing this? We already know it'll be Nintendo Network.

WiiU - won't just be about better graphics, some games like zelda graphics will be important"

Yay, that means the next Zelda won't pull a Wind Waker on us! Make that tech demo a reality Nintendo!

It's about time they get it. Some games like Mario and Pikmin, etc, don't need the high end graphics, they are about the gameplay. But games like Metroid and Zelda have to have the great graphics to help tell the story and pull the user in and make the player feel more immersed into Hyrule/whatever Samus is exploring.

I'd say pikmin relies heavly on graphics. everything except character models are detailed

[MachineLaw]

Nintendo's online system for Wii U will rely on the NinNet so they won't go Origin only, what may happen is that EA has a separate "channel" on Wii U were they promote their Origin services and were you can download EA games or purchase those dreaded "online passes". We know that Nintendo's new online infrastructure will be pretty flexible after all, and it makes me happy to know that Miyamoto, Reggie and Iwata have all said that Wii U will have a very strong online service.

Also in reply to giggitty3000, Iwata was just mentioning Zelda as an example, we all know Pikmin, F-Zero, Metroid and other series rely heavily on graphics so that both gameplay and presentation contribute to the experience.
