According to a NeoGAF user, although the Wii U will be released this year, Nintendo is focusing on the forthcoming Nintendo 3DS XL. The Nintendo 3DS XL and New Super Mario Bros. 2 will be released in North America on the same day, August 19th, which is being considered a re-launch for the Nintendo 3DS. After the Nintendo 3DS XL settles down, Nintendo will shift its focus toward Wii U and its future.

Damn still waiting for that price and release date
You’re not gonna get a price or release date till nearer the time, which will probably near or in November.
The user is troll there is no reason to work on a system that basically is already out a while ago.There not making specific games for a Xl that is still just a 3ds.
Ignore Post.
and those unannounced 3rd party games
I WANT F-ZERO OR NEW METROID *chews on fingers*
Okay, i literally laughed out loud at this, and i dont know why xD
We’ll see it in September during TGS week.
More nearer to November actually.
Why would they tell us the release date on the month they’re most likely releasing it on?
they should tell us on October.
From what I’m hearing, alot of people seem to think that we might see another Direct in September, where the big N will reveal price and date. This, to me, is looking more and more likely. That would give the retailers enough time to advertise and whatnot prior to a November launch.
it is confirmed will happen during fall.. september is most likely..

read answer to question 9.. it’s a bit long answer.. just search for “fall” if you are lazy
Ctrl + F makes everything so much easier :D
what does it do?
They may reveal release date and price, but so far what I’ve heard, Nintedo will be talking about one 3DS title… pretty stupid. But they do something else.
Makes sense to me, i want to know about these secret games D:
What secret games are you talking about?
Retro’s game, 2 of EA’s games, 2 other multiplat games that got mentioned in a previous article (a driving one and a FPS/3PS), credible reporters from Official Nhntendo Magazine ect said they got hands on with games not revealed at E3. Of course, a couple of these games could be the same one, but they’re there
Oh, and the game using CryEngine3 from a “respected developer”
I have a very strong feeling that there are still quite a few unannounced titles from both Nintendo themselves and other 3rd party developers that are still floating around waiting to be revealed…. I can only hope that they start releasing some news soon!
I think that one was Homedront 2
Fuck that -.-
Lol 500 comments! Many butt-hurt psfags here! Nintendo live long and prosper!
Nintendo for life is more fitting actually*
wrong topic?
there’s not 500+ comments here, learn to count.
Wrong article, but it was more one butthurt moron, whos view had no reasonable arguement, and was mainly just 200 comments of “nintendo faggot”
I reckon I can guess who that ass is.
You probably guessed right.
if U guess it rigth ill be your friend.
*right
the wiiU will be release in November ;)
I expect a Nintendo direct next month, hopefully. I’m dying for new Wii U info. Leave luck to heaven.
I want to hear more about the WiiU’s “achievements/trophies”. On the ps3 they’re an awesome idea, not just as bragging rights (18 platinums right hear ;D ) but it give you a challenge to really get the most of the game like Deus Ex 3’s pacifist trophy where you go through the whole game killing no-one.
But the WiiU’s apparently unlocked you extra in game, like multiplayer skins, avatars, ect
I guess you still havent got the platinum trophy for correct spelling yet …. maybe you should buy a dictionary or something?
But it looks like you got the Platinum trophy in being prick. Seriously, i have some grammar mistakes, no-one else gives a fuck besides grammar nazi and morons like you and Aeolus.
Observe my correct punctuation when i say …. FUCK OFF!
Observe my ass
You have 18 platinum trophies!? What level are you?
16 xD platinums do barrly anything to your level though, golds and silver do
I’d actually like coins to be part of the achievements system. Based on the difficulty of the task, the player earns an appropriate coin prize. This is, of course, in addition to walking with your 3DS and filling out surveys on Club Nintendo (I’m unifying the two coins here). They can be used for in-game content, app content and games/prizes on Club Nintendo.
The player could also wage as a spectator of online matches or play for them in tournaments , requiring a small coin entry fee. Nintendo could also hold contests (not unlike the ones Nintendo Power held), also requiring a small coin fee.
I’ll look forward to this Fall’s Nintendo Direct announcement from either Nintendo President Iwata or The Regginator.
My body, will be ready
And mine too
anyone wondering about 3dsXL its just a bigger 3ds nothing more 2 hours more batteries but still very unimpressive BUT I CAN’T WAIT FOR THE WIIU
wii u wii u wii u wii u wii u(ambulance siren)
