Re: You Can Transfer Wii VC Games to Wii U

@oldgamesonly: In a good way or a bad way? The best aim for the service would to allow newcomers to experience the classics while refining the content just enough so it doesn't feel stale to the vets. By refined I mean rendering the game in HD resolutions, remastering the sound and improving the controls if need be; not a full HD remake, that would just ruin it.

Horray for Aussies!

Now that's out of the way, I am so glad that all my money hasn't gone to waste buying those few VC titles. Hopefully the Wii U will have an improved VC service i.e. More games, correct displays, remastered sound and controls, etc.

Re: E3 2012: Wii U Tech Specs Revealed

These tech specs aren't precise enough for me.
How powerful each component is down to the very last detail is the only thing that would satisfy me and I'm not surprised the battery life for the controller is so poor, lithium ion cells are outdated technology, they will lose charge even when there is no current draw. Maybe I can rig my controller to use a Lithium Polymer battery, providing I can do it safely and without voiding the warranty.

Re: Talking Point: Why Skyward Sword Sales Failed to Soar

I think It was mostly due to a lack of interest and other games coming out around the same time. Most people who own a wii aren't even slightly interested in SS and the ones who would be were probably turned off by something like the graphics.
COD 1.753, Battlefield 3 and Skyrim were released around the same time, so that probably put a dent in the numbers as well.

Re: Feature: Nintendo's Motion Revolution

I think for the most part, Nintendo has done well with the wii, apart from the lack of 'Hardcore' games, I just hope they can combine traditional, motion, IR, and touch controls with superior graphic to create something fantastic.
