Has anyone taken any pics of Nintendo's area at GDC and posted them online?

The floor doesn't open until Wednesday.

The 'expo' isn't open yet, iirc. Not until Wednesday, right?

Actually, they're different from the 3DS pads, but most people don't care and will shit on them despite being functionally the same regardless.

Ace! I didn't shit on them, Ace! Ace! Can I have a gold star? Tell me all the Wii U secrets? I promise I won't tell anyone.

Correct.

PM me and I'll reveal all.

Ahhhh cheers for the clarification.

Maybe our photoshop crew could mock up what their exhibit will look like? =)

 

[Jtrizzy]

So basically nothing to worry about with regard to the joysticks?

Honestly, no.
The 3DS ones work just fine, and the Wii U's have a better grip and a wider area of movement, in addition to the unit being easier to hold.

Or wait for another 36 hours?

PM me and I'll reveal all.

Is that some kind of sexual favour?

Not as far as reports go, but (obviously) no one has experimented with them for an extended period of time so it's hard to say for certain (and some people won't like them because they are different) but the outlook is positive.

Ah okay. I have no problems with the slide pad myself, but I can see that as a potential complaint that will get old fast.

 

[OrangeGrayBlue]

I know this debate has passed, but... "Batman: Donkey Kong Arkham Country Returns, Again!"

Believe.

 

[AndyMoogle]

What's the deal with the joysticks? Someone in the AC3 thread mentioned that they are sliders not analog sticks?

The last time they showed the controller, it had slide pads instead of sticks. We don't know if they are keeping that for the final design though.

There are probably 14 ninjas in these pictures. You just can't see them!

And yet, they weren't good enough for NeoGAF's sleuths.

 

[Skiesofwonder]

I can't believe it took us so long to figure out what was behind those curtains.

It's as plain as day now. :lol

 

[bgassassin]

New Info!

Actually there's only 5. I guess what's being protected isn't too confidential.

Yes.. 5 .. but what kind? Who knows? We may be dealing with a new type!

 

[ffdgh]

free form ninjas

 

[Log4Girlz]

I want to take pictures of my face and then photo manipulate them with the U-pad and put them on my Mii's or other in game characters.

So like Face Raiders on the 3DS?

Looks like something Mario-related on the left - it looks like floating blocks, maybe a fire flower or two.

And words on the right that I can't make out.

Wait.
I can almost make it out...

Su... Super...

Mario...

It's from the E3 2009 Nintendo Booth

 

[Vermillion]

Makes sense.

I don't know what it would be or how they could do, but if Rocksteady could pull some Batman x Donkey Kong bonus in Arkham City Wii U, I'd buy 3 copies.

 

[bgassassin]

Definitely older style.

Spoiler

Yep. Older style.

 

[AceBandage]

And that picture is why Nintendo now uses projectors at their booths.

I would get the game Nintendo Ninja day one. Especially if in some parts of it you can hide behind those blankets.

I want to be in a Star Fox game. DO A LOG ROLL

Mission Number Five: infiltrate the Treehouse, find evidence of a leak, and eliminate the offending person without being detected.

We also would have accepted Nintendo Lawyer vs Phoenix Wright.

 

[Log4Girlz]

Ugh, what did they do to their faces.

Now I want to go rewatch that video.

 

[AceBandage]

Now, would it just be a random Nintendo lawyer, or the greatest of them all?

What does a Nintendo Lawyer generally look like?

EDIT: ^^^^ whoa awesome! Now that would be an awesome game!

Sorry. There's no such thing as a "random Nintendo lawyer". Nintendo lawyers are the Chuck Norrises of lawyering.

Well, I was referring to John Kirby.

He does exist! O.O

Interesting.

 

[AceBandage]

You guys had never heard of John Kirby?
:O

 

[Bullza2o]

Nope, but thanks to you I learned my fun fact of the day!

I bet he sucked.

This might be the crystal ball for Nintendo's online communication on Wii U. High quality skype-like windows streaming the faces and voices of your friends to the subscreen during online multiplayer.

It takes some the unique personal experience of local multiplayer and pushes it onto the NiN.

We saw video chatting on the controller at E3, and doing it in game (or even better, being able to switch to streaming what is on screen to a friend) is certainly something Nintendo would do.

As much as I like the concept of video chatting while gaming, I really don't want to see random people's faces, especially when they rage and stuff.

WTF is this?
