Wrote a couple of blog posts following on from Nintendo's E3 2011 press conference where they revealed the Wii U and I'll write another long analysis once today's press con is over. In the meantime, I'm starting up this topic so we can rage/rave about today's announcements as they happen.

Link - About the Wii U controller’s supposedly old-tech resistive screen
Link - E3 2011 impressions: A Nintendo fan's viewpoint

Just heard on Twitter of a rumour that Mass Effect is headed for the Wii U. That would be earth-shatteringly awesome if it was true.

Yeah no 3DS revamp. Now hearts beating for TGS.

Interesting to know that this is a Platinum Game company works. Though looks a little kiddo, but the potential is there.

Woah - Saw this posted in GoNintendo -
Reader GoNiners noticed something about the CG trailer (http://e3.nintendo.com/games/#/wiiu/zombi-u) for ZombiU.


"As explained by Ubisoft, in the game, if you get bit by a zombie, your character will turn into a zombie. When you continue, you come back as a different person and the old-you is now a zombie in the game.

In the CG trailer, you see people being attacked by zombies. What's actually happening is each person you see being attacked has already been bitten. If you look closely, you can see evidence of the infection on his or her skin. The person being attacked then becomes a zombie...that is, the zombie you see in the next clip! And this cycle continues until the very end. Then it resets because the last guy in the red coat (who's chopping off a zombie head) is the zombie being thrown out the window in the very first scene."

i think now they're focusing on wii u as for now. then boost the game library on 3ds. my estimation on next year when their share price/quarter income show positive figure then only will come out second revision.

feels like the cycle of current gen scenario is gonna happen again for the next gen console war

ninty as usual the pioneer in launching the new console with new innovation
then MS & Sony follow later

Ninty's new Wii U will have the current gen's console's power (Wii has the power of gamecube on steroid, or Xbox first gen), with some new control method/innovation while MS & Sony launch into next gen with higher power machines, and most likely maintain with their existing control method.

Not sure if this time Wii U will sell like hot cakes again like Wii (most likely won't)
cos most consumer basically had learn from the lesson of Wii, u buy bcos everyone bought it, and bcos your grandparent, parent and kids love it, and it end up collecting dust after a few months or weeks

about sony next-gen's console.. remember when sony first launch the ps3, in 2006? it was expensive, and to add to that, sony was selling it at a loss.. only in late 2010 it turned to profit.. about 4 years.. that is a long time, and a lot of losses.. im not sure if sony already gained enough profit to develop a new console, in just 1 year plus.. unless they are hiding something, (they have other division after all, for the profit) it may be a lot longer than we expected until we see ps4, or we will be seing ps4, but not with super hardware leap like most ppl wanted..

i dont know about microsoft.. im guessing they already developing it..

but, if the price is right, there is no harm owning more than one consoles right.. win-win situation biggrin.gif

edit: owh yeah, my point is.. this will give wii U some period to sell itself.. and we dont know about the specs yet, it may have the ability to compete with ps4 and next xbox for all we know...

not no one dun talk la. we can discuss here. for me i think i am going more on portable now. heck, even my ps3 i hardly turn on.

but the wii u give me the same impression, a lot of accessories like apple did. i think the only wii accessories i din buy is the wii wheel and zapper. wii fit board keep in box for years.

Still sad that there's no any great FPS games announced for 3ds..

I expect to see Metroid game or maybe COD to say the least, for 3DS..
I might be rage so hard if Black Ops 2 will be developed for DSL...

For now, the CPP is kinda useless a bit and hopefully the game developers will make more games that use the CPP even more, especially for FPS genre...

Well, gotta wait for Conduit then...

i think the only accessory the wii u will ever need is the tablet gamepad.. which you get out of the box.. and to get more "natural" feeling of controls, get the pro controller...

wouldn't it be hardto play fps on 3ds? i think this is what holding back the developer.. just my 2 cents

unless you willing to pay more for the 2nd analog attachment... fps is going to be very rare, like on psp
