Don't let it get to you, IdeaMan. If you are telling the truth, then there will be a massive amount of crow served up. Just think, in a short while, you will climb higher AND gain a tag. Regardless of it being "Reggie in disguise" or "Troll Alert", it's yours.

I think you are entertaining and at least promote discussion, so I hope you stay around :^)

Trolled for over Six Thread ;) just joking but then don't forget its 2nd hand info whispers and all that sometime get missed heard
 
If i would be him i woudn´t make a thread. He´ll get shred to pieces if he does. He´s already doubted in here, where we are left alone most of the time. Now imagine what would happen in a Thread for everyone (And every Nintendo hater) to see...

Stealth post to get him to reveal it here and in a few minutes:P

But seriously, I actually agree with that.

It's stupid out there, even more stupid than here where most are fans of the company.

If it's something decent (as he has been hinting), I wonder how long it would take for his news to reach the big sites. It'll be interesting to see the stretch of time from OP to news/rumor article time stamp.

I think the other thing he was holding back on was the sticks and revised control layout...so I'm not expecting much (relative to the time build up at least).

By the way, I finally tracked down those design patents Shiggy found in the European database. Here are direct links to each version of the wuc:

I'm not sure where he can tell which version is earlier, there are various dates, but I'm not sure what they correspond to.

I still say Nintendo will come out with both versions of the controller
 
I think the annoying thing init all is its like a broken record. The same people feel the need to come in and repeat themselves on how they think he is a fraud etc even though We have multiple people who can and have vouched for him.


It gets old. We get it you don't like him. You don't need to post it over and over.

See the Star Fox - Metroid thread for proof. The whole thread is either that the idea is stupid or it's a blatant lie.

He's fucking with people to get attention and it's getting old. I'm not a fan of anyone that does that. I'm sure he is loving it though.
 
I find Ideaman to be such a bore. I don't care what he has to say, I usually just gloss over it. But all the conditional bullshit and the 'i'll have something new soon' malarkey is so insulting. In this thread there's a nice community of Nintendo fans who have been waiting patiently, for almost a year, to learn of all the weird and wonderful things Nintendo has in store for their next console cycle as Wii owners watched their console die a muted death. And then there's Ideaman who can't just pop in for a nice friendly chat every now and then like the other more humble insiders. No, instead he has to make a celebrity out of himself. It's almost a convincing parody of the industry itself when you see him making an announcement of announcement which nearly always culminates in a fairly mundane release of information.

But frankly the most irritating thing about Ideaman are these meta-discussions that ultimately derail this thread and make it dull. I was bored writing this post.
 
Oh man, the wait for this is killing me. It's going to be so cool being able to play a full console Nintendo title on the Wii U Tablet while laying in bed. I'm guessing virtual console titles will be able to be played on it as well.

But I assume some titles won't be able to be played on the tablet, if the game need some sort of tablet-television interaction (like the ninja star swiping thing we saw at E3 2011).

Some developers will propably cheap out on this claiming: "but you couldn´t see the map when playing on the controller only!" wich could be resolved in making it accessable through a menu or a touch screen button on the controller.

But this will propably be one developer bullshit excuse for this gen!
 
I just watched the Game Trailers Nintendo bonus round thingy, it saddens me just how much these guys have missed the mark. Shane Satterfield was the only one up there that didn't sound like an idiot, but even then I feel like any 5 forum users from just about any gaming forum could of done a better job.

I honestly can't imagine graphics being the problem with Wii U, which is what they had the biggest problem with, I mean after having really closely examined the best looking current console games, I really don't see Wii U being left behind by next gen... That UE4 demo's saving grace is that it runs at a much higher resolution than 1080p and even then gamers all over the internet complain that they really don't think it looks all that good, and personally for the 3 months and $300k+ that that visual tech demo took to produce, it's down right disappointing.

There just isn't a good visual leap that needs to happen from the best of this gen. Currently I am playing LA Noire, and if the open world looked much more detailed, say a long the lines of Uncharted 3 or Witcher 2, with the same sort of voice acting and facial expressions, and the level of lighting from the Bird demo, well I can't see a need to push graphics further for at least 5 years, and by that time, the secrets of the Wii U's hardware, should allow it to extend that time another year or two.

TL:DR I think people aren't really asking for next gen graphics based on most people saying UE4 looks "Meh" and Wii U looks like it pushes graphics forward enough to give us all the best of current gen tech with better lighting than we have seen on any game in the market to date.

Funny, the dude who had his surgery today was also going to talk about the sticks that he learned from his developer friend. So even without the leaked pic, IdeaMan would still have been scooped on that front.
 
There is something called "ignore list". Use it if you hate idealman. No need to come in here complaining and repeating the same shit few pages/threads ago. Shit is getting fucking old.
 
Izick said:
I'm just surprised that he didn't expect people to be skeptical about this. It's basically a given, and what's the point of saying anything trying to defend yourself? Just wait till E3, and then it will show that you told the truth and you will be trusted from there on out.
Click to expand...

what ? are you new in these threads ? I pushed people to doubt me in my very first message in february man. People haven't waited you to be skeptic.

The thing is, it's a cycle. Every now and then, all of sudden, we have 1 or 2 pages of pollution with "IdeaMan Camp", "I hate him" "i don't care", it's tiresome, and it's not good for the thread.

Right, so instead of trying to make the thread more interesting to read, let's just resort to trying to "defame" someone who, in your opinion, makes the thread boring. Because let's face it: spending the thread bashing a person is relevant to the thread and is clearly making things more interesting.

/sarcasm

Honestly, let's move on. If you're not a fan, then forget about IdeaMan, and continue on how you normally would.

why would anyone miss all the fun by doing this. its boring around here... when we run out of shit to talk about just bring up IdeaMan's name and bam instant 2+ pages of bitching its a glorious time waster for an insomniac like me :3

you cannot Ignore the POWER of IdeaMAN!

all of our GAF Icons of the past have gone away we need to create new legendary posters and I am voting IdeaMan

(playing both sides of the issue to make sure he gets all the attention he wants)

muhahahahaha
 
I don't understand why people get upset because IdeaMan shares his info this way. I mean, you prefer that he comes here, post a detailled list of hardware specs of Wii U, leaking all detailled fonction, line-up and show a screen of a game running ?
I mean, it would be dangerous for his source. Also the way he shares his info is supposed to keep the hype and not spoil E3. I mean, I rather have some little hints/infos/rumors and discover it at E3 instead of knowing everything and finding E3 useless.
 
The IdeaMan hate parade has gotten so damn annoying - just don't give a fuck if you don't trust him.

You fuck up our beautiful spec threads, send him hate PMs or whatever - it's enough, really.
 
IdeaMan has Drinky Crow potential people

the only thing is IdeaMan has feelings

Hey at least he seems to like Nintendo so I approve of his Icon Membership pledge

I'm afraid you've missed my point entirely. I don't care about Ideaman's content. If people like it, great. I'm criticizing his conduct. Seriously. He has none of the class of harker or wsipple etc.

And your generalisations confound me. Are they aimed at me? Other detractors? Are people not free to criticise?

There's only one person to blame for this tiresome cycle and that's Ideaman himself.
