Nintendo reconfirmed to attendees at their E3 press conference that Wii U will be launching this holiday. Nintendo wouldn’t announce a firm release date for the console, neither would they be drawn into releasing pricing information. Both of these details will emerge sometime later this year. Will you be picking a Wii U up this holiday season?
Um, YES!
did they announce their specs ??? i heard that it sucks and it levels the xbox ,, not higher than it ,,,
wow if its true, I dont know what to do
the specs are actually amazing. read the nintendo site…
GPU
AMD Radeon™-based High Definition GPU.
CPU
IBM PowerⓇ-based multi-core processor.
I’m no tech wiz so can anyone confirm that these spec are good enough to be next gen so it’ll shut peteriuss up..thanks
That is horribly vague. Without anything more specific, no determination can be made.
its better than xbox everybody says only nintendo haters says not
Why does everyone have to compare it with Xbox? And based on the things it can do, specs aside, such as have two streams of video (TV and GamePad) at 60fps with Miiverse running in the background, can the PS3/360 do that? I’d say not.
Heck yeah I’m picking it up!
1ST AND NEY
Fail.
nooooo he’s still first to have my penis in his butt…
Of course! If I don’t, who knows when I’ll get my hands on one.
Need a price first.
We’ll be getting one.
Sickr, Game and Wario was just announced a while ago. http://www.ign.com/articles/2012/06/05/e3-2012-game-wario-headed-to-wii-u
Saw the video on the Wii U site but completely forgot to post it (it was in a montage) Obviously it’s been pretty hectic. Thanks!
sickr.there is something important.the U games didnt have too mutch power i meen not high graphics (higher than ps3 or just like the ps3)
i hope that the wiiu will be improved but faster!
^you sounded like a girl that just gotten her first period, calm the fuck down, the hell do you want sickr to do??
This^
yeah sickr will change the wii u just because you cant see, and then he’ll stop war and hunger… Wtf do u expect him to do?
I think I’ll be waiting until more games that I’m interested in come out, actually. I’m really interested in the WiiU, just none of the current games.
Definitely, It looks amazing. There just wasn’t enough shown in the conference. I know Nintendo have a lot more to offer!
“Will you be picking a Wii U this holiday season?”
Ahhh yep. If not I don’t deserve to type here.
Depends on what the price point is and what their official launch lineup is. At this point, I’ll be holding out to a more solid line up of Nintendo brands (i.e. Metroid, non side scrolling Mario, Smash Bros, Mario Kart, etc.)
This is my ultimate problem with their E3 conference – it lacked something big to close it out but if it was a year away then it wouldn’t be a big deal – but with a release so soon this is a worry.
I will buy it when it has at least 2 games that i really, really, REALLY want. The first one is Pikmin 3, so i will buy it when Smash Bros, Mario Kart or 3D Mario releases
i hope the graphics will be great (i dont care about graphics but i care about for the company a little)
It’s a day one purchase for me
Anyway,i cant wait to buy the wiiu now witch i found a fine job!
YESSSS YESSS YESSSSSSSSSSS
no yet, ill wait to a price drop or a special edition, and of course, if it will run the Unreal Engine 4, if not, bye bye ninty
…Seriously?
It most likely won’t run Unreal Engine 4, so I guess you won’t get it then? Too bad.
i would like to got it, but i dont want to see in a couple of years Play 4 and then we cant play those game of have bad ports just as Wii / PS3 ports…
i am ready to buy the U … :
sons of bitches….give me an effin’ price
SONS OF A BITCHES I WANT A STARFOX GAME OR AN ANOUNCMENT!
just wait for the press pack, might be a price in that
Absolute, day one purchase on my hand. Don’t care if it’s $499.99. I want it sitting on my shelf A.S.A.P.
If the two more showcases or whatever after this falter, I will have even less reason to get the Wii U. Even just a MENTION of any of the Big Three core titles in development will be enough for me to get the Wii U. JUST a mention will do. If not those, then whatever that game by Silicon Knights is will do fine as well. My absolute interest in the Wii U will solidify when they mention a new Metroid game (that hopefully won’t be as bad as Other M). If they mention a new Zelda game, I’ll still be excited, but not as much. If none of those things are even mentioned at all, well…shit.
Of course, the minute it arrives at whatever store in my city, I’ll buy it and maybe the whole launch lineup. :P
They did not answer any of my concerns for the system. Probably not.
Do we know if it plays BluRay? or at least DVDs? I was pretty disappointed when the wii didn’t.
It doesn’t. And it doesn’t need to.
nope. I never buy consoles within their launch window because they never have launch games I’m interested in.
I will pick one up if the oppurtunity presents itself. I really hope it does. They need to show more games for the “hardcore” crowd though. I think they did a good job appealing to the casuals during the conference. Leave luck to heaven.
I wasn’t originally planning on it, but seeing how weak Microsoft’s conference was I’m definitely planning on getting the WiiU, provided I can find a job in time to raise the money. Man I hate being unemployed and overqualified during a recession. Some of the uses, such as Luigi’s Ghost Mansion or the multiplayer mode in ZombiU are just the kind of thing I was hoping for with the 3DS’ networked multiplayer and AR. The WiiU looks set to really bring back the whole idea of ‘multiple people playing a game in the same room’ in a way that hasn’t really been seen outside of casual games like Wii Sports etc since this console generation began.
I don’t defect from MS lightly either – I’ve been a proud Xbox owner since the original Xbox turned up to essentially pick up the torch that the poor old Dreamcast dropped. I even bought Kinect (and I maintain that it has its uses – personally I still think Rise of Nightmares is flawed yet brilliant, and the implementation of voice controls in Skyrim are massively immersive and deepen the experience significantly).
Hell yeah:3 pikmin 3 and one more game on the launch day, just haventy decided which one yet D:
PLEASE READ!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!PLEASE READ!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!PLEASE READ!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!
From what I saw today, NO. Nintendo’s E3 was horrible. Nintendo has yet to convince me+many other gamers out there how the Wii U truly is a Next-Gen Platform. They didn’t share any new/interesting details of what the Wii U controller can do, not many Wii U exclusives were shown(most games are just ports), IT WAS SIMPLY HORRIBLE! Also, didn’t Nintendo say that they are targeting the “hardcore” gamers? Haven’t you noticed that they haven’t talked about that a lot? Instead, they are now saying that the Wii U will do what the Wii did only better? “Together. Better.” I will be disappointed if they are changing there plans and aiming the Wii U at the casual. And now I don’t see what the whole purpose of the “U” is. In addition, I don’t really care about graphics, but… from what was shown today… again, DISAPPOINTING! I know that the graphic leap from current to next gen won’t be HUGE but it should be noticeable. And to be honest, I did not see a game shown that can’t run on a PS3 or Xbox 360. To summarize, I DON’T SEE HOW THE WII U IS A NEXT GEN SYSTEM. :P
BTW, DOES ANYONE KNOW IF IT WILL SUPPORT UE4?
amen for that, im with you
it is next gen for nintendo standards, and better than ps3 and xbox.
I do think that it will perform better than current gen systems. Although I am afraid if it will stand against the PS4 or Xbox 720. :P
thats why i dont why to buy it
I’ll defiently get it this holiday season.
If Nintendo and third party publishers release Wii U titles for hardcore gamers, DAMN straight I’ll be purchasin’!
I definitely getting at launch. :)
