Oh okay then. That's understandable. I don't hare Origin and haven't found a reason to, but since most people hate it, then EA really needs to listen to the consumer and make som changes in that case.

I don't see an issue. Sounds like the account "set up" will be simple it simply accesses your Nintendo Network account and autofills it. Even if it doesn't, what's the big deal? it's only a one time set up with no fee. I'm not the type of gamer who looks for things to complain about. It's gaming, it's a service, it's an engine, you sign up, you set up, and you play. It would be a little unfair to EA if they were told tey had to do things differenty just becauase it's a Nintendo system. I am 100% behind this online system. Let's not get lazy and complain about having to set up.

not a fan of the colorful button display. Maybe its a US thing, but I'd be psyched if they did the grey and indigo buttons instead, like the US Super Nintendo. At first glance this looks like a toy version of an XBox controller. The idea is in the right direction, but I'm not entirely sure if it is what it needs to be yet.

lol I messed around with this in my head and came up with a couple of display ideas for Metroid

I love Tidalwave.

i wasnt a big fan of rayman at all until i played origins on te wii. But in regards to the Wii-U's specific mechanics possibly resulting in lack of 3rd Party support, I sincerely doubt that. See, in my point of view, The Wii U is not JUST about the gamepad. It has next generation graphocs, HD, and a pro controller which gives it the ability to downgrade itself as much as it needs to in order to match other consoles. The gamepad isn't a mandatory tool, from what i understand. I personally believe it is a nice addition and would not be at all disenchanted by a game that uses it only to display the game's logo on it as you play. I think if consumers want to play a game that doesnt require it, they can still do so without a pro controller.

I can't wait to play this game, all dark in the living room on a rainy night with my girlfriend

I don't see anywhere in this article, Reggie promising a steady stream of anything. He simply dodged the subject and said his job is to ensure there is high demand. High demand doesn't mean high supply. As a Nintendo fan, I am genuinely scared that some of us will be left out for a long time.

I hope there is no membership fee for Nintendo Network. That would suck!
Online Membership fees are what convinced me to never get an XBox.
PSN, however, I can respect. Hopefully Sony and Nintendo can get the videogame back to business as usual offering great games without a catch or hidden fees.
If executed correctly, Microsoft will have no choice but to follow suit. Unless they want XBox to go the way of the Dreamcast. But as a gamer, even I don't want to see that. I just want all systems to offer a free online experience. We're already paying a monthly fee for our internet service, so let's not charge for Nintendo Network, please, let's just NOT.

well, wwe games are all the same. i have SvR 2009, 2010, and 2011 and also wwe 12, reason being i am a wrestling fan, but i have not seen a significant change other than svr2011's backstage freeroaming which was removed from wwe 12. i'll probably but wwe 13 for wii, but its no big deal if it is not on wii u. its just a repeated game with what should be DLC added to each "year"

the day Nintendo stops making consoles will be the day I stop buying consoles. Nothing is impossible, but it is highly unlikely. It is very interesting to think about, as is the thought of "what if Sega or Atari made a new console today?" interesting.
Never say never, but do say highly improbable.

souls calibur and tekken characters are Smash-bound!

using your face to create a zombie with yuur likeness?
hunting yourself down if u become a zombie... that sounds fantastic!
i can NOT wait!!!

they should make Wii U commercials that seem retro like the NES commercials. i mean, sure make new and appealing commercials for today's young gamers but also have some commercials with the old school feel and the announcer talking about the power of the console while we see some amazing grapgics and some kid with a bad haircut playing like his life depends on it. that would bring nostalgia!

movie-based games, and superhero-based games have a history of suckage on every Nintendo console ever, so this might be one of those Wii U games we end up ignoring... unless it becomes the exception like the Batman Arkham series. Only time will tell

i was in a videogame commercial once...

looks like NFC integration is a good idea. plus four Wii U tablets used at once contrary to popular belief. graphic wise it seems very current gen but it is only a youtue video of a WIP so let's see how the finished product looks i' cant wait till E3 so we can get our fix

like it or not we are at the end of an era and trying to predict what will work best for the next generation is still a lot of guesswork. Nintendo is not known to "follow" any trends, they innovate and they set trends for others to follow. so having both digital downloads and physical media is a great way to test the waters. purists might oppose at first, such as myself, but this is how Nintendo always does it: They drag the videogame industry kicking and screaming into the next generation and we all love it once we experience it.

@Aviator Haaaa! i see what you did there! lol

what if instead of announcing about things we know are in the works, they actually give us some news instead? like any new ip's being worked on, or anything new we dont yet know about? i dunno like new feature or new game or something? any chances of nintendo bringing back star tropics?

while that means no Mii's for Mario 4, it doesn't mean no Mii's for "new super mario bros wii u" i strongly feel they should be two different games. or 3 different games if we consider an entirely new fully 3D adventure.. but i have to remind myself that i'm just wishing.

sounds like someone didnt review their contract prior to signing it... next time read thoroughly, ask for any revisiones to the contract that you might think are more reasonable, and then, ONLY then release the game on their platform. don't make hasty uninformed decisions and then complain about it later. why is it that you don't see other companies complaining about the amount of units before payment or any of that other nonensense. keep your mdk to yourself, the world will manage to continue with or without it somehow.
