The reason why I say this is because it introduces the titles that Nintendo has been known for in the past. This means it will get casuals interested in these core titles, increasing sales of future iterations. In addition, it'a an indication I think of what's coming on the wii u in the future (f zero, dk, Zelda, etc). What do you guys think?

I agree. I think Nintendoland is meant to show off the capabilities of the Gamepad as well as introduce new gamers to Nintendo's franchises

I always had no doubt that Nintendo Land would be at least decent. I just don't think they should have spent 20 minutes on it during the E3 conference... A small introduction and trailer would have been enough.

i agree, nintendo is trying to hit a home run with the wii u launch, just like they did with the wii, this time it's looking even more promising. not only is there amazing innovation, but there will be mario, nintendo land and awesome third party games like AC3 and there's plenty of third party exclusives like rayman legends and zombi U, the launch lineup is easily the best in home console history

I agree, even though it looks somewhat "casual" it looks well put together. Especially the F-Zero part which looks really fun to me.

My thoughts exactly.

i agree. This is a good move for nintendo.
I think Digitalgreentea made a video about this.

I don't think there is a game called Nintendand.

Nintendo said they wanted to turn "casual gamers" into "hardcore gamers". Sure that wouldn't work for grandpas and mas, but it might work for casual kids and casual adults. And btw when i say hardcore i don't mean COD. Nintendoland is a good way to start this 'evolution'.

When Casuals buy Nintendo land, they will play the minigames in it with their miis. Once they start playing a minigame of a popular franchise(Lets say zelda) He would probably want even more zelda. So thats when he buys the casual zelda games, which will then make him want even more! So he buys a 3ds with ocarina of time, and then he loved OOT, and wants more! He gets skyward sword, and finally buys Twilight Princess. He likes the realistic graphics of TP, so he will want more games with realistic graphics. But he also wants good gameplay. So he finds a game with good gameplay and realistic graphics (Lets say... skyrim) When he buys skyrim he will fall inlove with action-RPGs(Like i did) And so he wants to buy more action-RPGs. And then he moves to fighting games, FPS, TPS, Survival horror, and others.

That will work. I know because i was a casual gamer. The only games i played was Mario and Sonic games. Then i went on the internet to find more mario and sonic games for the Wii. On my way i saw Metroid Other M. Then I remembered that I used to play Metroid Zero Mission on my GBA! So i got obsessed with the game! When i got it i fell inlove with it(Seriously its an awesome game. Good Gameplay, Good graphics) so i wanted more! I then remembered that we dont have alot of "hardcore" AAA Games on the wii. So i started playing with my brother's PS3. I completed AC Revelations in 2 days. Then i got batman arkham city. This game made me a Batman Die-hard fan! I downloaded most NEW-52 comics and movies. It was one of the best games i played in my life! So then, I met Skyrim's trailer. 45 minutes later, i was escaping Helgen. And now i wanna get ME 3(Will get it for wii u) And alot of other "hardcore" games.

I agree but i hope it comes bundled with the system.

I agree but i hope it comes bundled with the system.

Let's hope. I can only see this game fully utilised if it came bundled digitally with every Wii U.
