I don't know. I won't get it for a while after release if at all. The remote is scaring me away from it. The thing looks square,rigid, and uncomfortable. I dont want to hold this bulky thing and play a game. You said it has analog sticks but everyone else is saying that it has nubs so I don't know. After watching E3 though, it looks like I'll be able to do the same thing as the Wii U when I buy a Vita-which I'm crazy excited for.
The Wii U having HD is a good step, but the controller looks way over the top. I would of liked the Wii U more if the Controller was more like PS3 or 360 controller, but have a 3-4 inch touch screen above it. It would look a more practical, and it would turn a lot more people on to the idea of a new Wii.
what's funny is, people are reacting to the Wii U the same way they reacted to the Wii back in '05-'06. "Weird, stupid, retarded' and what happened? Amazing console, amazing features, amazing games. I think the Wii U will be awesome
i'm not that excited, but I think that it would be cool to try out. One of the best features is if someone turns tv off, you can just play on the controller. but I am a little disapointed. i thought they would have a better thing ready to give out. Four swords would be a pretty good download and I am so happy that it's free. Im defiantly getting ocarina of time but i can't decide between mario kart and super mario. Help? please.
Hearing your complaints at the end about the name, I think they would've been better off calling it the Nintendo U. Wii = We and U = You, and it's one syllable like Wii. It's perfect. Well, who knows. We might get another Nintendo Ultra 64 situation.
One more note about the controller: It's apparently much lighter and easier to hold than it looks. This is based on the hands-on segments I've read so far.
The more that time has passed, the more I've grown to accept the idea of this console. Besides, if they nabbed Ninja Gaiden 3, Tekken and Arkham City (an old game by then, but watch the Hugo Strange trailer to see why that's irrelevant visually), they must be doing something right. I'm also pleased to hear the online will be on-par with Live and PSN (minus the hacks; now we just need a "no more friend codes" announcement).
I'm super excited abou Super Smash but if there is no port or attachement for Gamecube controller, i'll just buy the 3DS version. I also think that the controler is weird, i can't imagine myself playing bf3 with this use thing.
wait a minute...i'm looking very carefully at pics. i'm not sure but... does the controller use a sensor bar? because i'm not seeing one, it would be cool if it didn't, only cuz the sensor bar is a pain to hookup and breaks easily. not to mention it gets tangled easily to.
what most people want is a console in HD and 3D ( when they make a 3D tv that is ) and has a massive amount of memory in it. and three different controllers ( Like a advanced version of a Gamecube controller and that controller with a screen but a little more holdable, the third one i don't know ) and what they showed on E3. but i think they should have at least a new name other than wii in it.
I think its too early for a new console from nintendo.. but im pretty sure im gonna buy it. I just hope launch day is not hell on earth like wii launch day -_-.
I for one am looking forward to the controller. I think it'll make games like zelda much more more immersive. Think about it, being able to draw on a map with the screen along with item management. I anticipate that the Wii U will be able to use Wii remote, which means classic controllers will be compatible making it no issue for playing games like ninja gaiden.
Hmm... well New Super Mario Bros Wii U is the only thing that interests me for the Wii U at the moment. I reckon Zelda and the upcoming 3DS stuff mainly saved Nintendo's conference this year. Picking up my 3DS along with OoT3D when I get money in 2 weeks time!
Also, my first thought on the name Wii U... Kung Pow: Enter the Fist :P
@Darkcloud1983 I really can't tell if you are agreeing with me or disagreeing with me but you sir do not know anything about a gpu or a cpu If anything you sound like a 12 year old 360 fan fag that is mad that nintendo is finally on top.
The concept looked interesting. I'm not sold on the software yet; we didn't get to see any thing except for batman which ps3/ 360 will get much sooner anyway. That prototype zelda looked pretty cool. Otherwise I was disappointed by e3 this year. With the exception of sly 4 and tomb raider nothing wowed/surprised me.
at first i thought it was some sort of new thing for wii, but when i saw the graphics and all i was like hey it looks good though, the gameplay will be pretty interesting
I was very disapointed when they showed the Wii U.I thought it was an add on.But they didnt even show the console!But I am very happy with what they announced tho.controller still looks weird
I think this is going to be like the wii but with a few changes

I think its good name.
At lest be glead they didn t called it Wii2,that would been genericc and nintendo is not generic.
Also have faith on Nintenods Wiiu control.If they can make a remote as a playebal and good on it then i know it will also work on that controler.
I will never lose faith in Nintendo,Not in 2008 and not whit this ridiculas nitpicckings.

well, it's a prototype, but the tech specs will not change more than likely. Unless the games like darksiders 2 and what not get delayed.
The controller is odd, I admit, but it will be a cool feature. I just think a traditional controller was needed as well.
