There is the chance to transfer games from DSi to 3DS?
If the answer is "NO", I'll not be too optimistic

Don't expect news until the " Wii U Speculation thread X: Teletubbies are a Nintendo exclusive confirmed"
DSi to 3Ds since launch
3DS to 3DS since the last update.

My aunt & uncle run a Mom & Pop store, "The Gamecube Hut", and sold 80k WiiU within minutes of opening.

Not sure why there's such scepticism re: VC transfers from Wii to Wii U when our most recent example of a Nintendo generational shift that *did* involve DD titles showed that they will allow users to transfer games and apps.
Yup.
Haha!
Dude, you know the screen is 6.2" right?
Unless they move Wii to Nintendo Network too. HA!
exactly. also, what would the purpose of a network service be if u couldn't transfer data? come on people...
I would not be surprised if there is a move to this, similar to iTunes. They could release a Wii System Update that ties your purchases to a Nintendo Network account and simply re-downloads them. In fact, I wouldn't be surprised if that's what they plan to do when the whole of NiN is switched on.
Likewise.
boiled goose
good with gravy
Oh I agree it makes sense for them to do it.
That is why I am skeptical haha.
speaking of making sense...

4x (if u only look at specs) -> up to 12x (with optimized engines)
) someone can dream...Vitality sensor, games look better
So, thread IV has started, wow.
But what do I see on frontpage? 1GB RAM?
Based on 'leaked' info that's all we know as a minimum. Although if Ideaman is to be believed I think we can actually say 1.5 minimum. Personally I think 2.

Posted? from the GO site:
How the hell do you register a sub-domain?
You can't typo squat a subdomain name, it's a nonsense. 'beaten!)

I just cant wait to see the first Big N game I don't cure what anyone label it as or tech guys say as long as the art they and gameplay
My thread title is more accurate. I'm right because I'm posting on page 17. *smugface*
Also, Star Wars sucks. yes I went there
Well there's always the next thread; Wii U Speculation Thread Episode V: The Pessimism Strikes Back.
Y'know, we're in our own little bubble here, but I wanted to bring something in from.... OUTSIDE THE THREAD. *ominous music*
We always talk about hardware companies going out of business, but what if this upcoming gen is the one where a major software publisher just.... DIES?
I was thinking about this when I was writing this post in the thread blaming Cacpcom's current state on Inafune's departure:
It seriously concerns me. We might have IP Auctioning Wars to deal with in the upcoming 5 years.
It almost makes you wonder if that's why Nintendo's been sitting on their cash.

I'd say Konami is the one with serious problems. In the gaming market (they are profitable in other sectors right?) their only sure sellers are PES and MGS. Everything else is... well, shit. Especially the Silent Hill franchise. I did like Climax's take on the series with Shattered Memories. Wish they got a new chance at making a new one. With some proper marketing ofcourse.
Edit: if the title bothers a lot of posters, then a mod could change it to "A New Hype"

It couldn't hurt to end the complaining.
And as pointed out in that thread, games aren't even Konami's primary income source anymore, it's real estate and fitness centers, of all things. So truthfully, if anyone is going to put gaming on the outs, it's probably them by selling all their investments in it, auctioning their existing IPs and putting KojiPro out to pasture as an independent developer (which would seriously fuck Kojima up, something I greatly approve of).
The writing was on the wall when they asked Hudson to be a mobile games developer and a huge chunk of the talent fled to Nintendo, not to mention the Team Silent folks scattered to the winds.
Had Koei and Tecmo not consolidated, one of them would have been on the outs, too. But we've reached a point now where further consolidation is a dangerous proposition as most companies are large enough with their consolidations that one likely can't afford to consume the other.
Yep. If you go to a nationwide fitness chain in Japan, it's likely owned by Konami, at this point.

Fixed.
Also as far as im aware this really only applies to what we see in the west as im under the impression japan has quite a strong and sustainable mid to low tier devolpment community.
What, you thought they could not release ANY quality games in the past 4-5 years and get away with it if GAMING was their profitable business venture? LOL
Now THAT'S diversification! Maybe Nintendo needs to get some side businesses back.
lol, Yamauchi got Nintendo into the "love hotel" business back in the 60's (as well as a taxi service and other enterprises).

Let's not forget the bad food they made or the blatant Lego ripoff.
And also, I want to make all the naysayers wandering through this thread choke on their own dicks for a moment.
Nintendo's first ever DLC = FREE for early-bird buyers, paid for by "wait-for-bomba" GAF, essentially establishing a digital "pre-order bonus" sort of DLC model.
Getting major praise from the rest of GAF as being consumer-friendly but still business-minded.
So..... anyone still think Nintendo's going to fuck their online up this time?

But MotionPlus is so clunky as a pointer compared to the IR sensor. Seriously, it was painful just choosing your file in Skyward Sword, like you had to move it 3x what you normally would to get the cursor to move down the the OK button. The IR pointer is great, I'm not sure why they had to try to shoehorn MotionPlus into EVERY freaking piece of that game. The menu? Come on.
Yeah, I don't know what they were thinking. If they port SS to Wii U in HD with the pointer, I'll be all over that shit.
Just 9,990 more posts until I accomplish my goal for this thread!

(good mornin', peeps!)
Wouldn't surprise me in the slightest if Nintendo has its own priorities lost as far as this issue is concerned.
I have mentioned several times thatit's Nintendo's priority to just survive this transiton, and that "to the survivors go the spoils." This is the kind of thing I was thinking of.
