after that controller blunder, can't say I'm surprised XD. Something will leak tho...no matter how tiny it is.

Meh, I would have normally considered that controller leak a big one, but the fact that we had the latest design right under our nose since february is a bit embarrassing on our part.

I thought the Zelda demo was pretty dark and brownish.

Look at all dem shades of brown!

A Mario game, I believe, will truly show what Nintendo can do with HD+colors

Pretty much. That, and maybe something from the new Nintendo Power (preview is suppose to go up today).

I also could see Nintendo releasing a PR on monday detailing new features of the controller/console or maybe even specs (yeah right). If Biometric Feedback is in or either Vitality Sensor is shown again, I expect Nintendo will announce that the day before (similar to what they did with Motion+) to keep confusion to a minimal come June 5th.

Well, today is halfway done...

Weekends also tend to go by faster...

Thursdays also fly by because we're more concerned with the eShop update...

It's more like we only have to wait two days, really.

I think they revealed the revolution console right before the conference started.

Well they also had a preview for Wii Sports, Wario Ware, Red Steel, and I believe Excite Truck (this is off the top of my head so feel free to correct me).

We obviously had no idea about any of those games before, besides Red Steel of course.

I don't know if this has been posted already as I am not going through 1000's of posts. I did a search but couldn't find this specifically:

E3 rumors: More supposed Wii U specs, price and release date 'leak'.

http://www.gamesradar.com/e3-rumors-more-supposed-wii-u-spec-leak-are-pretty-favourable-if-not-made-up/

The supposed details? As thus:

-Graphics card: Radeon HD 6770
-RAM: 2Gb, with 560 (more?) dedicated to running the operating system.
-Support for two of the system's tablet controllers
-The controller's triggers are digital rather than analogue.
-The new 'button' on the controller relates to a new version of the Wii Vitality Sensor technology.
-Achievements supported.
-The dashboard is customisable.
-The console is currently running Epic's newly revealed Unreal Engine 4.
-Valve is working on a digital distribution system for the console, as well as a port of Portal 2.
-EA and Crytek are also very much involved.
-The system is due for launch on November the 23rd, for between $350 and $450. Price not entirely set yet.

I've found another (german) WiiU preorder page:

http://www.expansys.de/nintendo-wii...=google&utm_medium=shopping&utm_campaign=base

nothing very special here beside the very high price (placeholder) and what really got my attention is that they even mentioned an exact weight (4,7kg)

So maybe retailers know something about it??

X360 weight without harddisk 3,01kg
X360 weight with harddisk 3,3kg
the very old model was 3,87kg

ps3 newest model around 2,6kg

Wii around 1,1 kg

The fact that November 23 is a Friday and not a Sunday should be a red flag. That's not to say the rest should be thrown out too, but goes to show the validity of the whole thing. I know the last few system releases from Nintendo have been Sundays, is that true for all consoles lately?

Salve a tutti, spero che vi ricordiate di me.
Volevo dirvi che in verità non sono quello che ho detto di essere prima. Non sono uno sviluppatore di Ubisoft Milano, anzi, non sono nemmeno uno sviluppatore in verità. Sono solo un ragazzo di 15 anni che ama giocare con i videogiochi. Volevo fare uno scherzo agli utenti di questo forum, ma non volevo che il tutto sarebbe finito in questo modo. Mi scuso con tutti, con gli utenti, con tutti i fan che hanno creduto a quello che ho scritto, ma soprattutto ad Ubisoft a cui mi sono reso conto di aver causato problemi. In un primo momento ho pensato a spacciarmi per uno sviluppatore di Ubisoft perchè è stato il primo nome di una società che ha sede in Italia, in modo da essere creduto da più persone possibile.
Mi sono pentito di aver fatto una cosa del genere, perciò desidero chiedere scusa a tutti nella speranza che possiate perdonarmi per questo errore e spero che la Ubisoft perdoni la mia bravata e giuro che non farò più una cosa simile.

Look at all dem shades of brown!

A Mario game, I believe, will truly show what Nintendo can do with HD+colors[/QUOTE]

I wonder if Ninty will reveal a more fleshed out Zelda at e3 this year. I hope to see at least a fully playable demo.
