GTA V. It has to be that. Worthy of a Megaton title.

I agree. That's what I said in that post in regards to the flexibility. I believe allowing "freedom" within a controlled environment should go a long way for console online gaming.

No, its Starbucks. Their corporate logo is green and white. This summer you will be able to try out wii u at select Starbucks coffee shops.

They have all hit 600p or so to maintain that 60 fps. I'm sure if it were a major priority, they could refocus resources to hit that, but it clearly sells without it so who knows.

The name of the console is related to something green and white?

Just from what I've heard about the game modes and some of the items in this game, it just absolutely SCREAMS uPad. Uppercase required.
Let's see...
Remote control helicopters and robot tank things you can use
An RTS mode in the single player game
The tactical pad thing
Yeah, if this game isn't on Wii U with heavy pad usage I'll be shocked. Really shocked.
The way I figure it, the chances of this being the best version of the game are high. Real high.
Just like Aliens CM.
Now if we can just get Borderlands on this thing it'll make a hat trick of the best versions of all the best console FPSes this Fall. (iirc Bioshock got delayed, not sure how pad usage would help that one anyway)

I think it's quite risky to say "nothing less" than 720p for the Wii U version.

Who knows???
You'd have to ask whoever made the cryptic post as to what he was talking about but some have mentioned he was referring to proof that the name hasn't changed.
Maybe on boxart of Viewtiful Joe Wii U.

I really wish capcom didnt kill that series. A new 3DS game in that amazing style would be beautiful.

It was in response to an inquiry into whether we'd see a name change. He said not likely and gave a hint about seeing something green and white. My intuition tells me he saw some cross-promotional marketing material between Nintendo and Starbucks and the Wii brand was present.

If real, would a GTAV reveal be a closer for the conference or would they save that for a Smash Bros hype or Retro surprise? I would imagine they would want to discuss the last two a bit, meanwhile R* rarely discusses much outside of trailers.
Haha. I like this idea. Too bad Nintendo wouldn't implement it this way.
Why do you say that?
it must be impossible to throw a suprise party for u

I'm getting old. My reflexes aren't the same after five threads.
I haven't been a big WiiU speculation guy since getting banned for it in April 2011, but the Gearbox thread has piqued my interest, and I think I'm going to subscribe and take up residence here.

Gah, Dang it. I was just about to make the same joke, minus the mario.
Raven Blade. BELIEVE!
I can't see Nintendo turning it around so drastically in one gen. From the Wii's abomination of an online infrastructure to something on par with XBL?
Prove me wrong Nintendo.

Sounds like it wouldn't be revealed till probably after E3.
It would need to not happen so I can keep my focus on real life.
Haha. You're kind of late. We'll be on thread six in a few days.

I am cared of what 'appealing to the hardcore crowd' means.
I dont care if its a shooter, i just want it to be artistically beautiful and not shades of brown/red/black.

E3's coming guys. For all you in the "know" this is for you.
Lay beside me and tell me what Nintendo's done
And speak the words I wanna hear to make my worries run
The door is locked now but it's open if you're true
If you can understand the Mii then I can understand the U
I would agree with you only if Nintendo were developing their online infrastructure themselves, but considering they've already said they're working with companies outside of Nintendo and have been listening to 3rd party, it's definitely possible.

Wasn't there something about Retro hiring someone seemingly to make an open world game? So yeah, I wouldn't be surprised if it does end up being open world, whatever it is.
FINALLY, Retro's game is no longer unknown.
No wonder the guy is so clingy, look right below his torso.
Open world is ok. Have absolutely no interest in MMOs, period, so that would suck for me.

Do you mean Retro's game???
They don't have the typical Western mentality and seem to be on the same wavelength as Nintendo whether their original ways or the influence.

Do we even have a hint at how long Retro's game has been in development? Has it been in pre production stages for like 2 years waiting to be premier software for the new hardware and only hit full production after DKCR shipped or something? That would be cool.
Watch it be a star fox 3DS game.

I'd cheer.
Well let's go over the clues shall we?
Clue Number One: It's a game that everyone allegedly wants them to do
Clue Number Two: Retro has hired key members of staff from Naughty Dog, id, and Vigil Games (Darksiders)
Clue Number Three: The game has been allegedly described as "massive" by certain members of the industry

Clue 1 strongly suggests a sequel/reboot based for an existing IP, while Clues 2 and 3 only tell us that it's going to be an ambitious game with high production values. If all the odds weren't stacked against the possibility and I didn't already know better, I would say Zelda.
Hopes for it being Raven Blade... Deleted.

Clue Number Four: The game is not using existing IPs like Zelda, DK, Metroid, etc.
Really? How would it be a game that "everyone wants them to do" then?

Well they never specifically said it's a game everyone wants them to do. They could have meant a genre everyone wanted them to take one, etc. It's open to interpretation.
Wouldn't everyone want a Nintendo 1st party title that brings the eye candy?
Earthbound 64 is finally coming here. OH SNAP

Later on Saturday, May 19th...I've decided to go ahead and share with everyone the rumored Retro Studios title in development. Believe me, the last thing I want to do is fill the internet with more hopes and dreams that eventually get crushed and that's why I choose not to put up 90% of the crap I get.
Once in a while however, something is just too cool not to share and has a decent possibility backing it up. Add to that, the fact that the Retro Studios story emulated from Paul Gale Network in April, 2011 and I feel that I at least owe the story that I've uncovered, the "chance" and it being real.
I'm calling it a rumor when I reveal it tomorrow and can't stress that point enough. Still, I'll tell you at NeoGAF now that if true, it's quite freakin' exceptional.

Miyamoto says he wants to do that. Work with Retro on Zelda I mean.
