I always pay highest price for bundles with most items included. It would make sense to make few bundles for a start: Pro bundle in black or white (with HDMI cable, AV cable, console, Gamepad, Pro controller, Nintendoland all in one), Core bundle in white or black (with AV cable, Gamepad, console). Perhaps Family and Sport bundles too. Gamers needs are different and as much as some of them are paying less for less, the others pay more for most. I personally would pay a higher price for as much in the bundle as Nintendo can squeeze in the box.
I expect black bundle to include: console, manuals, gamepad, Nintendoland and cost 300$. White bundle to exclude Nintendoland and cost some 270$. Hopefully Nintendo will add HDMI cable too. Or at least will have official Nintendo ones available at around 15$ no more.
I am very disappointed with E3 lately. Ms, Sony, Nintendo are only given 1hour each to show what they need, but is 1 hour really enough to even warm up? Nintendo had so much to show, but we hardly got any idea what was going on... There were so many games on it coming and we got just tiny fragments of them. Each of them should have one day to show everything they want
Big chance is that we'll see Wii U only doing well for 5 years no more. I doubt Nintendo are planing long term (8-10 year) life cycle for Wii U. If so, it wont happen. PS4 and 720 are aiming very high. their next gen things will outlive ps3, 360 by much more. Sony and MS know what gamers need, Nintendo lives present day without planning far in the future (I mean no HDD not even DVD support in 2012 is f..ing ridiculous). Their Wii U is not even going to sell with a loss, which means they're cheap. Cheap means low quality and poor performance. I do believe Wii U is powerful system but only until we get to see what the real next gen PS and Xbox shows up. I was Nintendo fan for a while, but simply got tired of being disappointed every day. I still look forward towards Wii U if they can make some serious first party titles. If not I'll skip
You guys are such racists... Anyway, I would probably want black one more, but white one is gorgeous too and I don't care which one to get. Pity they are both glossy. Matte colors would have been much more practical. Hate cleaning fingerprints and dust
Power is very important. Wii U may get third party support now, but when others move on to next gen, Wii U will struggle because developers will move on to the next gen too...
Glad to know Wii U version isn't worse looking. I can already hear the Wii U controller making that motion sensor device sound as aliens are approaching from the darkness... Starting to panic..... COOOOOOOOOOL!!!!!!!!!!!!!!! ....Scary though
I'm sure it's more powerful than others, we just need someone to squeeze the most out of it. Nintendo wouldn't do the same mistake again by making a next gen console that is similar powerful as present gen ones. It might not be a big step forward but knowing that it'll be more powerful is great news already. E3 will give us the most idea about it
I'd go for a black Wii U of course (though my 3DS is ice white). Different colors means wider audience aim during launch. If launch units are going to be white only and I would get it without a doubt.
Hopefully Resi 6 will come to Wii U. I cannot imagine why shouldn't it. Resident Evil titles and Nintendo have been close together since N64, except resi 5 and probably "raccoon city stories". Hope to see resi 5, 6 on Wii U...
My favorite title was "Star Fox adventures" on Gamecube, developed by Rare and published by Nintendo. Now that Rare has been bought by MS, i am loosing hopes to ever see "Star Fox adventures 2". Nintendo owns rights of Starfox as a character, but genius behind the game was Rare. "Kameo" has been very much fun that came out with 360, but even that has no plans of a sequel. Oh well....
how about Wii 2? Enough with stupid names. if Sony can call their consoles ps1, ps2, ps3, why cant Ninty do the same? it's simple and easy. higher number with higher generation. no need for ridiculous names like "stream" or "U"
Not a big deal. I dont even play Wii anymore and i'm certainly not buying Wii U to play Wii games on it.. Who would bother with the damn old Wii when there are ass kicking HD games on Wii U
I'm still very much planing to buy it day one. I genuinely think there will be a slight loss with every console, just like with 360 and ps3. In the end they gave profit, didn't they? So why can't Nintendo make a sacrifice in the beginning and in the longer run get the profit? They are so aware to loose a penny with every console that they decided not to include HDD and other necessary features that we need so bad.. Why aren't MS and Sony so aware? Their consoles are loaded with extras and they lost a lot of money in the beginning, and now they are laughing with cash they have made.. Common Nintendo, stop crying and be cool for once!
would like to see what Wii U Zelda will look like. If that demo was only a start, we can expect the actual game to be even more impressive. I just hope it'll be more mature game than it was before. I mean it would be good to hear some voice acts, not just sounds. When ever it comes out, it'll be awesome game!
I have to say that I was disappointed with the Wii. Gamecube remains my favorite Nintendo console ever. Hope Wii U is going to replace it. Huge hopes for next Nintendo's console. HD and a screen controller... MMmmmm
Changed my mind, ladies and gents. Darkness 2 graphics will look more like cartoon game now. Very disappointing for me. For that reason alone - I'M OUT
i hope Capcom will bring resi 6 to Wii U hopefully 3rd person survival horror game, not some on rails shooter. For 3ds, i still count days to get revelations. other than that, i hope they will port some of the gamecube best resident evil games like 0,1,4 in 3d. Resi 5 would be a welcome title (lost in nightmares included) if it shows up on wii u or 3DS with unique control system.

Re: E3 2012: Epic Mickey 3DS Daubs Shelves 18th November

Re: Capcom: "No Plans for Resident Evil 6 Wii U At This Time"
they better start planing wii u version. Don't wanna keep my 360 just for that game.

Have you not understood the article? It's boasting Wii U's processor, not condemning. D'ah

Re: Darksiders II on Wii U to be Available on 'Day One'
Wii U and "Darksiders 2" on the launch day for me then. Could play it on 360 but it would only be half of the fun and waste of money.
Re: Talking Point: Why Wii U's Image Must Grab Attention
I'd go for a black Wii U of course (though my 3DS is ice white). Different colors means wider audience aim during launch. If launch units are going to be white only and I would get it without a doubt.
