Well, you all have a tendency to do that rather spitefully, at least in this thread.

Megaton?
I thought of you immediately hahaha
Harker has been one of the sleeper insiders dropping bombs so casually, most folks don't even notice.

I was playing PS3 too, I just felt this tingling sensation in my mind and knew to check the thread
JOHN HARKER FROM MARS, IS THIS TRUE.

This is what I've been thinking as well. While I wouldn't say Microsoft and Sony are forced to present new hardware at E3 this year, most certainly will they have to provide something truly spectacular to combat Nintendo's entirely new system. In recent years, Microsoft and Sony have changed quite drastically when it comes to media briefings at E3. Microsoft focuses mostly on Kinect and applications for it while Sony's briefing is reminiscent of a PowerPoint presentation (in terms of layout). It's not how it used to be with glamor, overblown spec sheets and deluding, "pre-rendered" scenes of games presented as real time experiences (Killzone 2 at E3 2005 for example, though I still don't know the truth about it). The conferences of Microsoft and Sony don't really pack a punch anymore in my opinion. It will most certainly change though once they start unraveling Durango and Orbis; whether it will be this year or the next is the question. Regardless of what happens in a month, I don't think they are just gonna sit there idly while Nintendo shows off the new Super Mario Bros. game for Wii U and perhaps Retro Studios' project(s).
At least porting from PS3 and 360 will be one step easier now.

No subtitle? What's wrong with U?

Huh? Do you mean early/late games on the system?
Um
I don't think Jedi Academy was ever referred to as Jedi Knight 3. It's more of a Jedi Knight 2.5 in my mind.

Yeah, I'm glad this is apparently true but this feels so random. When was his last post? Dude zoomed in here quick like a UFO.
Wanna know the real reason I'm excited about clicky sticks? Cuz I still hate em. Can't stand em, really.
But if Harker is telling the truth, it can only mean one thing...that the change was made at the request of 3rd party devs. Nintendo historically has had zero interest in clicky sticks, and I think the initial controller revision shows they had no intention of implementing them in the future. They're listening!!

Nintendo you better put a wiimote plus in there....i will refuse to play fps with dual analog....

I'm gonna enjoy them twice as hard because you hate them. I like them so much that while games are loading or during cut scenes I always be clicking them because I like the feeling of it.
Also click sticks being added means analog triggers got added for sheezy.
But how would you sprint in CoD?
How did they do it in the Wii version previously, Smash Bros style running?
My BIGGEST grip with the controls are solved, it means this year's biggest game, Black Ops 2, will not be gimped on Wii U.
Yeah lets not get into that discussion again. There are ways around it, though not everyone is accepting of those alternate inputs.
Personally I find it works quite nicely mapped to one of the bumpers.

I thought the triggers were already digital. Y'mean analog?
I.....I thought I was the only one.
Might participate a bit in this thread now its likely to heat up a bit. You guys seem to be having so much fun.
Yopu can still probably aim like that in the Wii U verson by tilting the WiiU, or you can aim by touching the touchscreen.

I'm so sorry you got banned, man. D:
Anyway, can somebody actually confirm for me somehow whether this Harker fellow is DefensiveReject 2.0 (or even just a speculator) or a person who can reasonably be said to have access to this sort of knowledge? I would like to know because I have a new Summary file for the thread that wants to be filled.
In my experience he is legit.
Harker is real.
See also lherre, arkam.
Which is what busy people in a position to know this kind of thing do.
See also lherre, arkam.
Harker is a well established dev. He posts frequently in the NPD thread with corrections or gives sales ranges and nobody questions him. He was the one who was at GDC this year and said the Wii U launch had some hot titles incoming.

Harker...I remember him supposedly having some insider info in a past thread. I'm too lazy to look it up.
If so, good bomba. It would reflect well that Nintendo is willing to include a feature that they themselves didn't innovate.
I'm calling voice control next. Better than Kinect too...

Not even 300 posts in and we get our first leak. Things are looking good.
RE: That ban site. It's all fake. Only has one of my bans and has the completely wrong reason and a fake quote from me.

He also posted something about Nintendo signing co-marketing deals with third parties.

This 100X ,,,,,clickable sticks are awful, unnatural and the worst thing that Micro brought to the industry (if they did cuz If Im not mistaken it started with the 360) ,,,,
personally, I dont nintendo can do anything to "improve" whats already broken,,
but thats just my opinion though
And I believed he was in agreement with Satterfield about the launch titles.
Looks like we're back on track with this new leak.
Just an extra couple of buttons, no reason not to include them now.

Thanks, guys. I'd heard the name before, but famous people on GAF are just as likely to be famous for the wrong reason as for the right. I will keep his name in mind.
Looking at the thread title now, I think it should be called:
Wii U Speculation Thread V - Page 400
That way, when you look at it now, it'd seem to say "Wii U Speculation Thread V - Page 400 - Page 6", and who needs to be not confused anyway?
