Doesn't have to be anything. Likely a placeholder.

It would be total bs if they don't. If they don't, I'll wait 1-2 years for it to drop to $5.

At launch?

I want to know this as well. Hopefully it isn't all NDA'd.
Has there ever been an optional bundle package available at any console launch?

I've saw that almost immediately. I've waited silently til now until I saw finally someone bring this up and i totally forgot about it since nobody (atleast i didn't saw) brought that up before.
But It gets better than this, it's not just this ...
It's also that:
Now I got to think a few things while looking at it, it's .... fishy.
First of all it can be reffering to something else, like the Boss in the game, or what ...
Second, it can be what we think we think, a subtle hint, but then, the marketing team got it wrong because Samus is a She.
Now we can ... by looking at the circumstancial evidence conclude it may be a hint, because the next Metroid message is about a general topic, not necessairly a gameplay progression help question, so that "he's back" may not be necessairly in context of a gameplay event.
Then if we even take another step further you can see the Mii that's used to say this, he has his arms up in a "winner" position, are you thinking what I'm thinking.
I had a (wet) dream about Iwata joining Gibeau and Riccitiello on the stage of this Summer Showcase.
Nice, do you have a link? (Don't know which IGN Twitter it's posted on).
Edit: nevermind found it
.Edit 2: To late lol.

Walruses, camels, bears, rabbits, tigers and badgers.
Fifa and Madden is all I'm expecting (Madden better be there), but Mass Effect 3 seems like another reasonable prediction.
Sim City WiiU in my wildest dreams
Actually, that would be Mirror's Edge 2, but I don't even dare to write that in the open

That message probably reads "I've just played about every metroid game". It's probably nothing significant.
What is significant though is EA's presentation tomorrow. At the minimum, FIFA 13 for Wii U should be presented. It would be nice with announcement of the two other titles they have mentioned before, but maybe that will be debut at the September conference. Ah well, good to hear something new.
Also, direct link to the event: http://www.ea.com/1/summer-showcase

Sim City Wii U makes so much sense to me, I really hope that the game will come to the system. Both touch screen and multiple displays are great for the type of game.

Whoaaaaaaa. Iwata's put a hype bus on for free. All aboard.

It's a no-brainer, that's why it will never happen.
Realistically though, the whole "always online to play" stance for SimCity makes it seem very unlikely to come to WiiU or any console for that matter. :/

Nintendo opened their own Online Store.

As I've noted before: "Civilization Revolution" came out for every system not codenamed "Revolution", so you should expect "Civilization Cafe" to come out in the next few years. I trust you can work out which system it will not come out on.
edit:
Why is Toad juggling tin cans in the Mario Kart full page pic in the Annual Report? I don't remember cans being any sort of powerup in a previous Mario Kart game.
I was thinking, Nintendo has said they will be open to the ftp market for Wii-U's eshop. You know what they really need? They need their own version of a TF2 game. Something like a Mario paintball game. Or like Smash Bros does, and have more characters than just Mario and his friends. Or maybe even a Mii paintball game or a combination of all.
You know, something free, something every Wii-U owner can download, and something that is actually good. Use the TF2 formula or just keep everything free. But there could be different pickup's like new weapon types, different stats, different outfits, different game modes, etc.
There could be different classes similar to TF2. I mean they could copy and improve on so much from TF2 using their own Nintendo characters. Keep it family friendly by making it paintball. But still a solid shooter with some depth. Classes, upgrades, stats, maps, rare loot finds like outfits and special guns, multiple game modes, etc.
Link it in directly with Mii-verse and you could start the match right from there by shooting people in third person or top down view or whatever view point you call what Mii-verse is, lol.

I see WiiU getting Sim City 5. SC has in the past, been on previous Nintendo hardware. Not to mention Sim fan base exists there too.
I would buy a Sim City Wii U version. I think it's logic with the screen on the controller to have something like that. Add Civilization or any god games (Spore or Black & White).
"We have no plans on bringing quality games to the Wii U platform. Nor will we invest money in optimized ports or marketing. We simply will not do anything that could make us money. When we make no money, we will have an excuse for why we don't put games out on this platform. Thank you."

Only six 1st party games listed under ,WiiU coming in 2012' in the PDF report. Rest confirmed for 2013?
Could very well be some random comment. ,,I've played just about every Metroid game''.

Sim City on WiiU = life over.
I think RTS and build'em-up sims will be where the WiiU and its gamepad will immerse the player like never before. Months will disappear off of people's lives.

There's a Samus helmet in the background representing a game.
I plan on replaying Zelda and Mario 3D Land once I get my 3DS XL. Then I will buy Tales of the Abyss and Graces f for the PS3.
Thanks. What's a bish gif?
Sim City would probably get the most out of it though. Working with the RCI schematics on the WiiU pad while at the same time showing the actual city on the man screen, or doing underground work while you could see what's above ground on the TV would be really nice. So much more information that they can display that way.
EA's outlook on Wii U isn't very reassuring
So... Mass Effect 3, Madden '13 and FIFA '13 as the only Wii U titles tomorrow?
Tomorrow we get the first of the new WiiU news since E3 Yay, all we have had was very small stuff and rumors.
Now EA is about the break out their line up.
What do you guys expect to be announced?
I expect Madden 13, Fifa 13, NBA live 13, Need For Speed, and MoH:WF
All with WiiU details
also new news on Mass Effect 3
What I hope for is but prob wont happen today
Overstrike WiiU exclusive
Mirrors Edge 2 and Battlefield 4 confirmed for WiiU

Yeah the writing was on the wall after E3.
EatChildren
Currently polling second in Australia's federal election (first in the Gold Coast), this feral may one day be your Bogan King.
It's generic art to show off the home screen, just like all the other icons.
translation: as soon as PS4/720 drop, Wii U will start getting support, i.e downports of PS4/720/PC games.
this is why I don't care about third party support on Nintendo consoles anymore. I have my Nintendo first party box in the Wii U and PS4/720 will be my third party boxes.
Looks like EatChildren was right. Some publishers don't regret missing out on Wii and EA hasn't learned their lesson. This wait and see approach is gonna bite them in the ass. Wii 2.0 confirmed. Or should I say, GameCube 3.0 confirmed.
Edit:
Regarding EA, their approach is so unbelievably stupid I'm shocked no shareholder has ever called them out on this.
This is a bish gif
LOL!
The best is that other articles are saying the opposite (always Peter Moore speech), saying that they are very committed to the Wii U, they learned that you must not underestimate Nintendo as they did with the Wii, and that they'll announce other games:
Were keeping a very close eye on the platform. (We have learned to) never underestimate Nintendo, as proven by the last generation. EA has great franchises poised to be on that platform. Well probably announce more in the future. - EA's Peter Moore
http://uk.ign.com/articles/2012/07/31/ea-keeping-a-very-close-eye-on-wii-u?
So, I don't expect a great support, but obviously more than what we know for now.
It's also so strange that last year
