I think Nintendo x Capcom is inevitable.
Wonderful 101, Pikmin 3 and Monster Hunter are right around the corner. Well I´m not so sure about Pikmin...
That's what I've been thinking since E3. For a moment, with these fall conferences, they've made me believe that this ,,launch window focus'' wasn't just some farce to cover up that they simply couldn't get anything better ready, but now Pikmin and W101 don't even make it out until march in EU anymore and both are arguably the only somewhat big efforts from Nintendo themselves for longterm fans. And really, after playing it myself I don't think it's possible to completely erase the evidence that Pikmin was originally a Wii game. Which makes it incredibly dubious that they have to hold this back instead of getting it out at launch.
If the next E3 conference isn't convincing, it's save to say that their entry into HD development has utterly failed imo. And no, they haven't abandoned E3 for the sake of these Directs, the major announcements will still happen there.
All I want to see at this point are some more games announced for the thing.
Is multi-touch really that wanted? (3)DS isn't multi-touch, is it? They seem to be making cool stuff for those handhelds without it.
LOL, do people still think Nintendo has this super secret stash of games they're just waiting to announce? That they're just keeping silent for strategic purposes?
I don't know about anyone else, but what I learned from the Wii U launch fiasco is that when Nintendo keeps silent about certain details, it's not a good thing.
Just give me games and a faster OS.
Next big Steps?
- native Virtual Console
- faster OS
- eShop demos
Two out of three should be accomplished by the end of the year... hopefully VC comes next.
After that: Game announcements to wash away some of the bad press the Wii U has gotten so far.
Just give me games and a faster OS.
Well for the moment Miiverse loads quite faster now. It took a while to load during launch day but now everything is very quick.
Another thing is that now there's real people and real drawings in the OS, I took like 5 minutes to watch those, there's some real good artists in there.
The rest of the OS needs some tweaks thought, I believe it'll happen soon enough.
Does the Mii Verse app load faster or is the app just snappier? It's HTML so I can see how they speed up the app, but there's been no more patches so how can loading get faster?
No updates since launch day, but it really does load faster, quite a lot even.
Detach NNIDs from their consoles (we KNOW it's coming, anyone who paid attention to Nintendo Direct knows it's coming the second they mentioned integrating it into the 3DS), just sooner rather than later.
OK, then that's weird. I wonder if Nintendo has compressed the apps and essentially caches the uncompressed ones you use the most?
It would not surprise me if they just tie it to one console of a type. 1 3DS, 1 Wii U etc.
Yeah....this wont happen.
A lot of the load times people were seeing could just be because the system was booting these features for the first time, server load balancing tweaks, optimizations to the service itself or a combination of all 3.
You're optimistic, but I hope that happens! I only need one more in case my Wii U dies.Nah, we'll get 2 for consoles, 2 for handhelds, multiple instances on smartphones/tablets (since you can't put those games on non-Nintendo hardware anyways), only one of each active at any one time, polls the server when you launch a game.
I have no idea how the fuck they can do it, but they need to try and convince people the Wii U shouldn't be compared to the Nextbox and PS4 when they launch next year. Other than that, Nintendo will continue to sell boatloads of 1st party software.
Nintendo 3rd party ports are going to be fucked. If the Wii U is having trouble porting current gen games, then when the Nextbox and PS4 come, they're boned for the most part. The future ports are going to look so fucking wretched in comparison...they basically will be entirely different games. With that said, Nintendo and 3rd party devs need to be smart, so you may actually see a lot of 3rd party exclusives that get ported to the other consoles much later on.
In terms of what I want...I'll buy the thing when the first real Mario, Zelda, Smash, or Metroid game comes out for it. Nintendo consoles almost will always catch me because of their exclusive software.
Yeah I guess it's possible the app screen just sits there as it's contacting the network and doing who knows what.
You're optimistic, but I hope that happens! I only need one more in case my Wii U dies.
Also, also Pokemon Snap! U!
With clever design I don't think the lack of multi-touch is an issue at all. I honestly haven't even noticed it doesn't have it. Gaf being gaf I think
Your argument is also pretty weird. You mention W101 but instantly drop it for the sake of "If the next E3 conference isn't convincing, it's save to say that their entry into HD development has utterly failed imo."
Next is the Wii U ambassador program![]()
I just want the GamePad to come in matte instead of glossy finish.
You answered your own question. WiiU needs great exclusives, like Bayo 2 and Nintendo's own games.
Next round of announcements has to be big.

Nintendo's next step needs to be getting out a graphical powerhouse game that will silence all the message board detractors.
Game Pad Plus Pro
1 glass multi-touch screen
2 OLED screens
3 analog sticks
4-D technology
Also, bring back the bongo controller.
Like i said, there's no point for them to talk about future heavy hiiters right now. They will sell all supplies of the WiiU for the rest of the hollidays. So they keep these announcements for when they need to create some noise.He speaks the truth. I'm worried about 2013 since we don't know what's coming to the system after March 2013. The state of third party support isn't clear either, so it's kind of worrying.
Well Nintendo did miss the oportunity to make the first device that supports multi console rendering (officially at least) like we see in the videocard world. Given how underpowered the console is, it would have been a very clever solution.
People said the same about the vita. Just sayingI'm 100% certain they have plenty of games in the making we don't know about yet. Why wouldn't they?
Right now they want us focusing on the launch window.
