I was making my brownies with dusty old nut shells and pre-chewed gum.

Hey!
I just thought of something WiiU to talk about!
How realistically do you think brownies would be depicted on the WiiU? Give me quantifiable math if possible.

don't get your hopes they'll probably be cel-shaded.

That's disappointing.
WiiU's ability to render convincing foodstuffs is tantamount to my enjoyment of the console.

RipTen said:There have been a lot of rumors flying around lately about the Wii U running a version of Android OS. Nintendo and Google have yet to confirm anything regarding the marrying of their console and operating system. It does leave Android owners, and prospective Wii U buyers, to wonder about the different possibilities this pairing could offer. Nintendo has lacked in the department of downloadable content and applications. The addition of Androids Google Play Store to the Wii U could be of enormous help when it comes to filling the cabinets with media and applications.

I doubt it'll be a Android OS, but the ability to run Android apps, or even a full iOS VM could be quite cool.

There is nothing about Android that would appeal to Nintendo.

At the cost of the system being hacked on day 0 and becoming another PSP.

They have never said this and there is no way that Nintendo would allow for an entire market to just instantly be avaliable on their system, especially some one else's market.
Have you meet Nintendo?

It has an app store. It is a big draw. Apple is their main competitor.

I really wish people would stop saying this.
It's simply not true, especially when it comes to home consoles.
Apple is no more and no less a competitor than MS or Sony or even TV channels.
Nintendo has always been an integrated company. Hardware + Software both in working together and made for each other, why would they:
1. Willingly give up that advantage
2. Lose profit to google for all the software sold
The only scenario I can see this playing out is that theyve forked the android code with their own store and developers can easily develop cross-platform apps between android and WiiU OS. Still highly unlikely though

The thing would be cracked within three minutes of launch.It's not happening. It's too big of a security risk.

Its a competitor for electronic gadget dollars. Iphones and Ipads are all the rage for like..everyone of all ages. Oh and Nintendo has literally said as much, they are looking at Apple, the war with Sony was already won.
If they produce a product with a rich app store, it would garner far more attention than a more traditional console. This must become a true family computer to compete.

Yes, but they won't do it using someone elses existing app store.
This is Nintendo. They'll make their own.

Oh like I said, I would believe this rumor if the 3DS was running android...and seeing how its noooot. It can still be forked I would imagine, must like Amazon's implementation of Android being their own essentially.

You're giving it that long? I don't even give it until it leaves the factory.

They designed it cracked.
An App Store Nintendo wouldn't make money from. If they lock it down, Kindle style, they don't really need Android in the first place.It has an app store. It is a big draw. Apple is their main competitor.
It isn't. That's what hyper-/multivisors are for.It's not happening. It's too big of a security risk.

Nintendo could choose to use a highly customized Android as their base OS, just because it's a complete and polished OS, and completely free. They could use it and not give any access to the app stores, and add their own security on top.

Which would completely defeat the purpose of using it.
They'll have their own OS designed and used.
Simple as that.

No, the purpose would be, as I said, to have a complete and polished OS that they know has good touchscreen interfaces that people like, with minimal development costs. And it would let them have a great Indy community of their own, since a lot of people are skilled at making Android apps (these would be sold on Nintendo's own app store, so they would have full control and get full profits)Which would completely defeat the purpose of using it.

None at all.
Maybe, but native Android apps wouldn't work in the first place (different hardware architecture) and nothing on the store is optimized for the resolution or input methods Nintendo uses. Nintendo makes no money and customers wouldn't be satisfied - it's useless.They need a rich app store, whatever it takes.

Nintendo does things their way, no way they use anyone else's anything.

True. And again, if they were going for Android, I would imagine it would have been designed for 3DS as well.
All this Oban talk... : /I believe he linked to pirated anime in the anime thread. Just that. Short ban, and will be back soon.

Currently polling second in Australia's federal election (first in the Gold Coast), this feral may one day be your Bogan King.
Believing Android on any Nintendo platform is smoking crack. Bad crack. That's some crazy joo joo nonsense. Like Nintendo would ever let an open platform anywhere near their own meticulously controlled environment.
