I'm not sold on the games besides NSMB U, but the OS is intriguing indeed. I really hope we get all the details pertaining to online accounts, transfers from the Wii, the digital library and purchasing options.

WHAT ARE YOU DOING?
Pretty much this entire next generation for me is about this. The biggest advancement in my mind for the current gen was what that Microsoft did. Achievements, video streaming, game store, custom soundtracks, parties, cross game inviting etc. Really smart guys who worked on that stuff. I'm hoping we see a similar level of advancement this gen with features like app multitasking/suspension, auto-updating, full cloud support and just a smart allocation of RAM for that stuff.

This ain't no iPhone hype, this is real.
I can't believe what's going on with the iPhone 5, maybe Nintendo has a chance after all

Taking my time writing this paper for a morning class. Staying up past 3am when you have a 8am class isn't crazy as long as you're getting work done right.

So ready lmao. Can't believe there's a ND before the event!
"NCL has announced a presentation by Satoru Iwata tomorrow, Sep. 13th at 4 pm in Japan, covering launch details for the Wii U, including the release date, price, and information on the system itself."

Crap!! Im not going to be able to sleep!!! Why?!?!
Watch Nintendo's E3 presentations. That will make tonight's presentations seem even better.... unless you don't want to re-open old wounds.

What have been the average time of the Nintendo Direct broadcasts? The last broadcast, excluding the special ones like for Brain Training, was around 40-45 minutes.
Anyway, I am quite surprised that Nintendo will have a second broadcast for the Japanese market hours after the first one on 12 a.m. PDT. The fact that there will be a second broadcast shows that Nintendo may be taking the Wii U really seriously unlike previous events (e.g. E3 2012).
