Gotcha. 8GB of memory confirmed then? AMD is right there too so Wii U must also be getting a Tahiti-level GPU.
XD
LOL. No Crytek is now a Nintendo first-party company.

I'm guessing Crytek is going to be showing off their new MMO and will have a big LAN party for it.

Wants the largest console games publisher to avoid Nintendo's platforms.
I realized why you asked. But no, all my info is 2nd hand. Well, almost all.

I am not even joking here. Timesplitters 4 has to happen. It simply has. I don't even care what console it's going to be on. Just make it happen.
They could make it into an awesome dudebro parody, with Cortez visiting a COD-like war scenarios, where he teams up with a weird british guy in a moustache, gets on to fight off an alien monster invasion with a buff guy with a bandana, then jets off to an invasion of red eyed Helghas... errh Space Nazis
Then just add some monkeys, robots that want to be loved, murderous gingerbread, dancing zombies, busty Jungle Girls and Harry Tipper.
Time Sink confirmed.

Koichi Hayashida of EAD Tokyo is speaking at GDC? Wow. This guy is definitely the next big thing at Nintendo.
I just want online map editor trading. On the CryEngine.

Yes, he is: http://schedule.gdconf.com/session/13473429
It doesn't appear to be about anything Wii U related though. But if there is a Q&A session after the presentation, maybe he will get some questions about the new system.

Monster, duh.
I thought they were working on the 3DS?

My sources tell me Mr. Feeny is the next big thing at Nintendo.
That's not really true, they had the thing with the screens (when they announced Luigi's Mansion 2), then they showed trailers of all the first party games, and then they went onto the sizzle reel and some e-shop stuff.
Also Killer Freaks looked awful at E3, showing it on stage would have made for far worse reactions than "looks worse than ps360."
Confirmed: Wii U to be renamed Wii Ping, featuring solely Crytek software after their purchase of Nintendo's software division. New Pokémon remake to be named "TekCrystal"

I'm not even entirely confident it will come.
Take Two doesn't tell Rockstar what to do for the most part. And the things Rockstar does do not always make sense.

As I've said before, Nintendo will do anything they can to get the game.
talking about the space on the touch screen being enough for the older board games.

Nintendo did everything they were willing to do to get Vice City and San Andreas late ports on the Gamecube. It did not succeed.

They got three Rockstar games on the Wii and an exclusive (for the time) GTA on the DS.
It was just that they were all games no one wanted.
They got Chinatown Wars, though, for what it's worth.
multidisc gta would have suuuucked.

True, but publishers seem to be more multiplatform-centric than in those days, especially wih such high-budget, blockbuster titles.
But RDR never came out on PC, so who knows.

Well, Nintendo did hire Mark Atikson (former Director of Technology at Crytek ) as Consultant Software Engineer in September 2011. And AMD is developing the GPU. This meaning they have partners/affiliates really close, and with golden opportunities to demonstrate what their new system is capable of graphically.
As reported by Gameinformer in September 2011:
Source: http://www.gameinformer.com/b/news/archive/2011/09/18/crytek-is-excited-about-the-wii-u.aspx
Crytek Nottingham is, for those who didn't know it, the former Free Radical, the creators of the TimeSplitters franchise. Current announced projects of Crytek include Warface (Crytek Seoul and Crytek Frankfurt) and Ryse (Crytek Frankfurt), but what the Nottingham studio is doing is unknown. It could be TimeSplitters, a sequel to Second Sight. Or something completely new, maybe something to do with the recently trademarked "World of Atlantis".
EDIT: Antioch pointed out Crytek Nottingham is developing Homefront 2. Disregard the above ramble.

Certainly. I just wrote this in connection to the discussion about Game Developers Conference and eventual "teamwork" by AMD, Crytek and Nintendo there.
You are so right. I must have missed that when plowing through the heaps of text I read to post my reply. It doesn't rule out though they could still be working on another project.
Haha same here, GTAIV is so much better on PC it's not funny. I will be really disappointed at Rockstar if there isn't any Wii U GTA
GTA V was hinted at strongly yes with them even saying Rockstar was one of the first 3rd parties to get a kit to enable GTA V
