It's the internet.

Rayman Legends
NintendoLands
ZombieU
Pikmin 3
New Super Mario Bros U
Some usual ports (Mass Effect 3, Darksiders 2, Madden etc)
Pretty good for launch IMO.

Yeah but the Wii U is not on par with PS3/360, it's more powerful, if the sources and rumors are right the power will be...
Wii U = PS2
PS4/720 = Gamecube
PS4/720= Xbox
with tech from 5 years ago![]()
I have a feeling the difference between them will be quite a bit bigger than that. If what you're saying was the case then Wii U would have no problem running virtually all the multi-platform games PS4 and 720 will have at just about the same quality, which I doubt based on all the rumors and speculation over the past year.
Well even Wii and 3DS have netflix. The point is as you say in your second paragraph; Nintendo knows that anyone who wants these things will already have devices that do them, so why would they increase the cost of their product for no good reason?

$600 launch PS3 = bad but might as well have my wallet destroyed.
$299 Nintendo system = bad, definitely waiting a few years!
Meh. What are ya gonna do?
$299 for hardware that won't deliver better performance than $250-$200 hardware? Pass.
Would have snagged at $250.

lol, should've been 2GB. We can add 8GB+ flash though, and a 32MB buffer.Wait...now the rumor is Wii U has 4GB of RAM?
300 dollars is way too high - just being honest.
1. It needs to have the same amount of high-profile games that I currently have in my 360 library.
2. It needs to not be last gen.
3. I need it to have at least 4 gamepads included. What is this shit? Single player at launch? Unheard of.
4. I already have a Blu Ray player, but I need it to also play Blu Ray disks, or no sale.
5. Nintendo sucks at online.
6. I bet I can't even plug in an ethernet cord. Who the fuck has wifi these days?
7. I really need it to have an SD TV built in, because i'm not playing that last gen shit on my new tv.
With all this, I might just buy one at $250

He also said the Wii U launch line up is looking pretty damn good. Yep
You do realize this is completely unrealistic, right?

The system supports 5 player games at launch.. not single player
I know what you're trying to say.. but it isn't the same thing as having support for multiple Wii U GamePad.
Fair price. Still hoping for Nintendo Land as a pack-in for NA. The launch lineup is looking really solid even if there is seemingly no "OMFG I MUST HAVE THIS" game. I have a feeling that once some more Nintendo Land and NSMBU media is released, I'll be salivating over those titles. Same w/ Zombi U potentially.
I wonder how much truth this article had:
http://www.forgetthebox.net/mag/culture/forum-m/rumor-wii-u-price.php
They said $300 in this article, and this article was posted back in April.
Fixed that for yah.Yeah but the Wii U is not on par with PS3/360, it's more powerful, if the sources and rumors are right the power will be...
Wii U = Xbox
PS3/360 = ps2
PS4/720= gaming pc
High end gaming pc = omg wtf graphics
It won't be that bad, and the Gamepad helps it, if the PS4 sticks with Duel Shock 4 than it could hurt it more than help it.

I very much want Pikmin 3, provided it's more like the excellent Pikmin 2 than the original, so-so entry.
is this what people even want? I still watch blu-rays, but more often than not I'm mocked for it. seems like Netflix and Hulu are what everyone's into these days.
Fixed that for yah.
Kinda lost some interest in P3 since Miyamoto said he wasn't too satisfied with part 2 and now is more involved in this game to make it closer to the original. :/
Maybe for people that don't care about image quality in their movies.
Fixed it to just be a regular gaming pc.You kinda messed up that analogy a bit, because 720/PS4 would be like a high-end gaming PC from 2001. But I see what you're saying.
Thats not true.Theres so much shit on netflix, and hulu you cant buy on dvd like keeping up with shows that are going on you cant blue ray that stuff.Maybe for people that don't care about image quality in their movies.

Wii already has Netflix, Hulu and BBC iPlayer. In fact Wii still gets about twice the Netflix audience PS3 and 360 manage today.Now Wii U is going to have to play catchup with Xbox and Playstation as they both already have Netflix, Hulu, Vudu, BBC Player, ESPN, etc. This fall is going to be interesting to say the least.

I don't know anyone that gives a crap about Blurays. Everyone's on Netflix on Demand or uses Amazon/iTunes/PSN/Microsoft digital movie rentals.
With all the irrational Nintendo hatred going around, the only one that was clearly sarcastic to me is #7.300 dollars is way too high - just being honest.

As far as the lineup goes, he was right. Who's most people?http://www.gametrailers.com/full-episodes/u6xhk7/invisible-walls-episode-217Skip to around 38:25.
Satterfield says that's he heard through certain channels that that is likely going to be the price. Then again he did state pre E3 that the Wii U lineup was looking pretty good and based on what was shown most people would disagree. Hmmm....
Also it's true, I would never game on wifi. Shit is too unreliable unless you own a Wireless N router which I don't, because I have no reason to own one. And even then it's probably still less reliable and less fast than a wired gigabit connection.
The lineup is okay but the problem is it doesn't have the next gen visual bump that gets you excited for a new console. Its like buying new hardware for games we are already playing. So even in retrospect, the 360s launch wasn't great, you were excited to play PGR3 because it looked better than anything we've seen and even shitty games like Kameo and PDZ were worth playing because of that.
Than you had Gears and Oblivion to look forward to, two games that would really bring in the next gen feeling. Thats my take anyway.
