The Wii U Speculation Thread VI: The Undiscovered Country

Touché.
I do think Steam would be great, but it just contradicts with so many philosophies about how Nintendo controls its content, making it seem highly unlikely, but not implausible.

Well, the Wii U unveiled last year without a 3D Mario game, but there's still plenty of time for one to be shown a few months before release.
On Tuesday, for example

Valve rumors? What? With all these trailers and shit already comin out, I can't keep up with anything lol
I think it's safe to say LEGO: Lord of the Rings is also coming to Wii U, even if the trailer doesn't mention any plateform...
And this is unrelated to LEGO City Stories?

May I have a cookie?
That profile is most certainly about Lego City Stories. Lego LotR is by TT Games, not Tt Fusion.

Well to give him some credit, I imagine all future Lego Games will be coming to Wii-U at one point or another (considering they usually sell best on Nintendo consoles).

My fiancee and I are huge Endless Ocean fans. Cannot wait to see it in HD. As for changes, it could work as some sort of open world or MMO game I think.
I believe I read the idea on neogaf, but it would be neat also if Nintendo combined it's sports franchises (Wii Sports, Wave Race, Wii Fit, 1080) with Endless Ocean and Pilotwings Lite into an MMO. It'd be like going around Wuhu and being able to see people playing all the events, there could be start times for tournaments (lots of start times of course), player interactions, etc. It's probably too big a leap for Nintendo, but it'd be the only MMO I'd be willing to pay say $10 a month to have access to.

Valve rumor must be true! Imagine all the tears and whinning from gaf or pc crowd. Biggest meltdown in history xD

I'm not even going to humor such a rumor until I see it with my own eyes. My mind would go crazy with anticipation.
I will say though that if Biometric Feedback is brought back for Wii-U then I would say there is a possibility.
Half-Life 3 (with HL1 and HL2 remastered). Just imagine that.
If it isn't called Super Mario Universe I will be disappointed now
I've been lagging behind on rumors. What exactly are you referring to?
Super Mario Universe -> Super Mario Marble

Yep, it's just speculation, like every other mention of Valve and Nintendo in the same sentence. I wouldn't be all that surprised to see some Valve games ported to the Wii U (DOTA2, perhaps?), but anything that could be described as a "partnership" between Nintendo and Valve strikes me as over-optimistic.
So the Valve thing is just speculation from one of the CVG writers and nothing more?

this is a speculation thread... so... I'll allow it :3
E3 still hasn't hit me yet. I thought it would during the horrible Konami pre-recorded crap, but it still hasn't.
Fine, fine

Metal Gear Rising confirmed as a 2013 title only makes me want a Wii-U version even more. Could you imagine WiiMotion+ being used to determine what direction/angle you swing your sword? Or (more likely) using touch screen swipes on the U-Pad to make precise sword slashes?
Once again, I will disappointed if this delay does not equal a Wii-U version.

is Kojima working on this game? If so there may be enough reason to doubt that it will come as silly as that sounds
2013 games should be interesting to see who makes the cut into the WiiU library
The game isn't built around it. Really would be superficial.
In Endless Ocean 3 you will play in a fictional universe set in a mythical underwater world.
Your character will be a Merman/Mermaid researcher sent out to write a bestiary of the mythical sea creatures living in the seas.
You will be armed with a trident to fend off attacks but the game will feature mild peril like in EO2.
There may be a giant enemy crab.

I had another E3 dream last night. Nintendo held their conference outside in this giant field (it was more for a concert type place), and I got to go. But for some reason I was really not hyped and barely listened to it. All I remember is Reggie making jokes at the beginning and then I started talking to other people, not paying attention.
And then I had a sexy dream after that.
It must mean something.

Yeah as a promotion tool for the next MGS game on other systems

Super Mario World? I can believe in that, it's sitting right next to my SNES IIRC (SMAS+SMW, specifically).
What're you talking about? I'm a member of both GAF and the Glorious PC Gaming Master Race, and the only tears I'd shed would be tears of joy. The more people who can experience Valve goodness, the better!
That you're bored of video games and need to get laid?

This is the first time Nntendo has had a platform designed for easy ports/porting from, you can't base anything from the past. Although the GameCube got a MGS remake, remember, that was only last generation.

This was my thought as soon as Galaxy came out.
But after two Galaxy games, this is where I am now. I want more surface to run around on.

Probably. Who am I kidding though? E3 HYPE TRAIN WOOOOO!

Ok, your rebuttal of my correction actually made me realize what the original point might have been.
While I've been thinking mainly in authentication terms, where having multiple key pairs for various parties is not a problem (and chains of trust are trivial to revoke), I did not think of the possibility that the decryptor in the unit might be capable of handling just a single key pair. Now that is a technical limitation that could be justified (i.e. that the decryptor was biased toward this particular unit, and only that unit), as some insurmountable link somewhere in the unit's DD crypto chain has to be, and the flash media decryptor is one such point (whereas the optical-medium path can, and should, be left unbiased).
Technically, nintendo could make the flash decryptor handle multiple key pairs, but they would have to make sure that for at least one of those, the private key lies with the decryptor (so they could use that pair for DD content purchased on the unit). But that would require a sound business justification : )
There was an MGS remake for Gamecube, but it was developed by SK and published by Nintendo (as far as I recall). Meanwhile, MGS 2 and 3 which came out on both PS2 and XBox, and which could have been ported to Gamecube, never appeared on them system. By all accounts Kojima has something against Nintendo, and Konami don't have the balls to go against him on it.
MGS3 did not come out on the XBOX.
also, p.s. KOJIMA IS THE GUY WHO APPROACHED SAKURAI ABOUT SNAKE BEING IN SMASH BROS. WHY WOULD HE HAVE ANYTHING AGAINST NINTENDO?!

From the official site:
If projects like this one already come with Wii U/3DS version I don't know what to expect from the big players...

Ok, my mistake on the MGS3 (I thought it got a late port for some reason), and I didn't know about Smash Bros, but I'm pretty sure we've heard that Konami wanted a version of Project Ogre on Wii U and Kojima flat out refused, so there's something up there.
