Fixed for the awesome.
H: Surprise return of Kaplan
Man, I love this thread. I'll give you all a cryptic Wii U quote on May 2nd that you can all analyze into oblivion. :lol
It will be Miyamoto on the Wii U pad vs. Reggie, Iwata, Bill, and the shocking return of George Harrison with Wii Remotes to disrupt the power status quo
and no ex-wives to boot
The 2nd doesn't work for me.
Can we do it on the 4th?
If you're just talking about adding IR sensors and maybe some motion sensors to a headset, it's not a big deal. Many people are already using them for playing online. I've never used head tracking but that video by Johnny Lee Chung appeared to be a cheap way to implement 3D. Perhaps they could make it so it isn't a requirement and could be toggled off an on in a game?
As far as a 3D visor goes. I doubt it will happen, but it could. The only reason I bring it up is because Wii U already streams video. Nintendo are already using a lot of these features, they're just using the Upad to do it.
Wooo. You sure know how to get a man hyped HTBetter yet, the stage is entirely dark.
A spotlight comes on. It illuminates Miyamoto. He's holding a uPad. We can hear feint sound effects from the game he's playing.
Another spotlight comes on. It's Reggie. He's playing also. He's laughing like a maniac, in usual fashion.
Then, another spotlight. Iwata. He's playing, laughing, and tossing his hair in dramatic fashion.
This goes on for some time.
Then, another spotlight is flipped on. Mark Rein is there with his uPad, wry smile on his face. The volume for the music of the game they're playing finally comes up. The screen above the stage, showing a really gorgeous game with all of their characters. The music intensifies. The game goes from one game to the next, with the foursome's characters shown in different settings, genres, etc. The games shown are a smorgasboard of graphical showcases, going on for some time to overwhelm the viewers and crowd. The crowd goes nuts.

I like this person's response to it:

Thanks! It's just off the top of my head. I'm sure I could refine the hell out of it for massive damage.Wooo. You sure know how to get a man hyped HT
I noticed immediately, haha..That's why I linked to a post complaining about the article, rather than IGN itself...
Bill Trinen.
Okay, this is a speculation thread, but wasn't World of Warcraft also rumored for Wii U? Coincidence? I think not.

Holy shit?This is the year Reggie farts onstage at the conference and third-party relations are ruined forever.
Slow day today. Aint it? Even IGN got bored.
The fart was an announcement for a new Wario game gone horribly right
So looking back at pictures of the console, I just realized something. The red sync button appears to be on the face of the console, exposed, uncovered (unlike the current Wii). That seems to me like a signal that they expect the syncing of different peripherals to be common enough to want access to that button without the hassle of opening the front hatch every time. Given the expense of purchasing multiple Upads, and the rumored functionality of tying your accounts to the pad itself, it seems Yamauchi's dream of having people carry their consoles to other people's houses might soon be fulfilled (sort of). And they didn't even need a lunchbox handle.
Strangely enough, nothing ever came out of the idea to transfer your play data to the Wii Remote's small storage function.Know what would be awesome? Because able to like, transfer your characters from SSBU to a friend's console, without overwriting their save.
It and ToR have been rumored for it.
I wouldn't expect either, though.

Did anyone every use the "Wiimote Can Store Junk" feature?
I'm not talking about devs. I'm talking about us.
I know you can store Miis and Monster Hunter Tri characters on Wiimotes... never really did that tough.

the only things that used it were Miis (and Mii games, I suppose)

That was the other thing, and what I was thinking of when I responded to his post.Brawl profiles, too.
Last month, we kicked off the new "Role-Playing" feature series with newly hired Microsoft executive Phil Harrison. This month, we're switching gears and asked our panel of journalists to assume the big shoes of Nintendo CEO Satoru Iwata.
While 3DS would appear to be doing quite well now, Nintendo is at an interesting point in its console business. The company is looking at a fall/holiday launch of the Wii U and the new system needs to get off to a strong start before Microsoft and Sony launch their respective new hardware.
Here's the question we put to our panel:
You're Satoru Iwata. Your company's current Wii console has been all but forgotten, you're feeling immense pressure from social and mobile, and there's constant talk about Microsoft and Sony's next-gen consoles. E3 is your opportunity to make a big splash and to make sure that consumers will want a Wii U this holiday, rather than wait a year for a PS4 or new Xbox. What do you do?
I wouldn't say I'm expecting it, but I wouldn't be shocked if Nintendo vs. Capcom actually happens. It'd fill a gap in Wii U's lineup nicely, seeing as the next SSB will likely be a Q4 2014 release, if not later.
