Is there a mention of how much flash memory there is? Odd that there is no internet though. YOu would think the VC was a gravey train.
A better joke would include Reggie's Pizza Hut career.Nintendo's inspiration?
I'd get one of the bottom right, but only because it looks like a game&watch. I'm really conflicted on the design. It's definitely a completely new turn, but I wish they'd made the edges look a little less like a lunchbox
I was going for the Famicom look. The only G&W I had was DK Jr. and I don't think it had these colors.Game & Watch forever!
Hnnng.
I here you, but the average consumer is not you (or me, or most people reading this site). It's not helped by 3DS titles being thrown in with DS titles on the DS shelf in my local supermarket (there's no 3DS promotional banners) and I fully expect Wii U and Wii to share the same shelf space.I really want to know who these people are that really, seriously don't know or are legitimately confused that the Wii U is a new console and not an addition to the old Wii.
Given that it looks different, has a different name, uses different games, is priced different, has a different controller, a different marketing scheme and does different stuff, the legend of these confused consumers is just crazy to me. Even if you were the dumbest end user or the most oblivious of soccer moms just looking to buy "the new Wii from the TV" or "the new Nintendo", there's no way you could conclude anything but Wii U to me

Nope, I did the blue one.Are all of these officials colors? Nintendo must be trying to see which one(s) will click.

Well when they revised the Wii originally didn't they already cut Gamecube support? IMO, that is a big feature for me still since I do have a bunch of GC games that I like playing on a regular basis.No internet...? Meh.
No GC Support?
Fuck that.
Oh god that looks so good. The red makes it look kinda cheap but that blue is so good. I'm for sure picking one up but I'm honestly considering waiting for better colours, but I doubt they'll make more colours considering how niche this console will be.
Hnnng.
I would hazard to guess most Wii's on the market are solely updated by people buying new games and the new games eventually updating the Wii once every 2 years. That same crowd probably has never even considered the online aspect of the Wii either. To them it plays Mario, Goldeneye, WiiSports and crummy mini-game collections.I like the design, but no internet? What age are we in?
That kills all the software update that it might need, all Wii Shop access, all digital games, all online games.
As a Canadian I'm thoroughly confused as why this is exclusive to us. Seems completely random, lol.
I can't see the disc slot.
I'm sure you could get one of us friendly Canadian GAFers to purchase and ship it to you.Sucks for us in US. Best Buy does not ship outside CA.
It's top-loading like a Gamecube.
People seem to think this is targeted at GAF. It's not. People really think the casual public gives a shit about Gamecube and Virtual Console support?
