Did games even push Type X/X2*? I can't imagine arcade game budgets coming remotely close to console game budgets these days (barring stuff meant to be ported). I guess the main thing to Type X is just easy development and they're just keeping it up with common hardware.
*Which had a vague range of hardware for specs iirc, like they allowed anything from low end CPUs and GPUs to high end ones.
Nintendo had Robin Williams do Zelda commercials and had Beyonce do Rhythm Heaven commercials. Those were first party games.

The notion of an original first-party IP with a T or M rating is not what makes me doubt this rumor. Heck, if Nintendo isn't willing to publish anything like that, I'd say they're pretty much fucked in their efforts to win over the core market.

you've got it. Grampa and Monkey have a party.
Haha same. It's something else that I wouldn't expect.
Remember Eminem holding that stick of dynamite over his junk on that album cover? I'm imagining a photoshop with a Wii remote there instead.
(not very flattering, now that I think about it..)
Or Reggie being flatulent!

Does Eminem even do shit like that?
The last spaces is with you two already in the board.
lol I remember one of Eminem's songs he says "You don't get another chance, life is no Nintendo Game."
It's amusing when rappers talk about videogames in their songs.

Also he tried to break a high score in Donkey Kong.

Thanks. I have add one more point since then, but didn't want to repost the whole thing for that.
They only specify AC3, Just Dance, and Avengers as being on WiiU, with the first two being tied to the console launch. When they talk about GRO, they speak only of the PC version. That could be because the WiiU version isn't coming this year or because they just didn't say anything about it. They did blur the line as to what category they consider in, so it could still be part of the 7.

Yeah, but using Beyonce and Nicole was there way of trying to push their systems to a market that may not be interested in games. They were trying to show that people you wouldn't expect also play games.
This Eminem thing doesn't make sense if they're trying to push it to core gamers. Those gamers couldn't care less about celebrities marketing games.

Have we got many clues as to how many games and what publishers may be releasing for WiiU for launch window first 6 months October '12 - March '13? A successful launch will need a mixture of core and casual full release titles of maybe 60 titles, so where are these titles going to come from? we have all these publishers and Ubisoft for example is going to have 7 titles Nintendo will probably have 10-12 full release titles in the launch window. What will the other publishers have for oct-march for WiiU?
WORLD
EA
Activision/Blizzard
Ubisoft
THQ
Take Two
2K
Warner Brothers
Atari
Codemasters
(Valve ?)
JAPAN
Nintendo
Capcom
Konami
Sega
Level 5
Tecmo/Koei
Square
Namco
Did I miss any publishers or did I add any that will not release any games?

Actin' like they never seen nobody hit a nick before
Smashed the window, grabbed the Nintendo 64
When they sell out in stores the price triples
I ran up the block jumpin' kids on tricycles
And colliding with an 80-year old lady with groceries
There goes the cheese, eggs, milk and Post Toasties
Stood up and started to see stars
Too many siren sounds, it seemed like a thousand police cars
Barely escaped, must-a been some dumb luck
Jumped up and climbed the back of a movin' dump truck
But I think somebody seen me maybe
Plus I lost the damn Nintendo and I must-a dropped the Beanie Baby
Fuck it I give up, I'm surrounded in blue suits
Came out with a white flag hollerin' "TRUCE TRUCE!"
Surrendered my weapon to cops
Wasn't me! It was the gangsta rap and the peppermint Schnopps

What wouldn't he do for a nintendo product!

I think the only thing we can be sure of is which one's is higher.
edit: A "certain white rapper". And Nintendo? Hmm, what one thing do they have in common?
"Go ninja, go ninja, go!"
Yeah, yeah, I know it's the other guy

Guys, its pre E3. Lets pretend this could be real for fun.
Wtf kind of game could something called acid ghost be?
Probably a code name? Sure, but that's not fun so don't mention that!
I say rythem heaven esque musical/timing experience in between on rails shooter segments set in a post apocolyptic future. Best looking wii u game on the floor.

Targeted at an older audience to me suggests probably some kind of FPS. if it was indeed Nintendo made it would have to be like Retro made as I dont know if FPS are the style of the rest of Nintendo

My first thought is that it would be a horror game. But i'm not sure if Nintendo would want two of those lined up for the Wii U so earlier. That's assuming that the ED2 rumor is true.

ACID GHOST SOUNDS SO BADASS AND HARDCORE.
First thing that I thought of was Eternal Darkness sequel. Not sure why.

Sin and Punishment. Not exactly I would think of as coming from Nintendo either.

I don't know when you were last here, so I picked a random five-digit number to start on.
#10603: Ben10: Omniverse announced for Wii U
#10776: Capcom to have no playable Nintendo games at E3
#10824: Ubisoft seeks to capitalize on 'social game benefits' of next-gen consoles
#10841: Analyst believes ubisoft will have F2P Wiiu titles this year:
#10961: [Ubisoft] will have five casual titles and two core titles.
#11097: via linkedin, employee resumés mentioning Wii U projects
#11164: a rumor about a certain white rapper starring in an E3 promotional video for a first-party Wii U title called "Acid Ghost" aimed at older gamers.
Nah, that's still more or less in their wheelhouse.
I think dudebro FPS is the only genre I can't see Nintendo seriously attempting. Yes, yes, I don't include Geist.
Hold steady, like Reggie, better get your body ready
I spit slick verses faster than a Corvette,
so hype about Nintendo's party, throw the confetti.
Haters salty cause next gen has landed already,
so sick with rage that they'll be wearing mom's spaghetti.
