Alright, cool. I just wanted to check and make sure I didn't miss it somehow. I keep wanting one after seeing rayman. :/

nailed it.
hi there. watcher of your show, so i wondered if someone is making a weird joke here
Retro's next game after Metroid Prime 3: Corruption was Donkey Kong Country Returns - a 2D platformer. After that, they helped out with Mario Kart 7 - a kart racer. Just with the tracks I think but still. They could make a puzzle game for all I care and it'd probably end up being great.
Unless you're insinuating that the shooting mechanics in the Prime series wasn't good -_-
If they make a FPS game on the same calibre as the Prime games then I wouldn't mind :]
Thought I'd join in the Photoshop box art fun. A quick one for TLoZ:
Also found a neat video of the Sacred Grove rendered with Cry Engine. Artistic proficiency is lacking, but it's still neat to see what can be brought to Zelda with modern tech.

But it's Retro. Every thing they touch is turns into gold.

If you have a 360 or a PS3, download the demo. It's repetetive, easy, and takes itself WAY too seriously. During fights, YOU DON'T EVEN HAVE TO TOUCH THE DAMN CONTROL STICK!!! Just randomly mash X and Y (Square and Triangle on PS3) while enemies walk up to you reeeeeeeeeeally sloooooooooowly and deal minimal damage. Then after mashing buttons 30 or 40 times, press B to use a room-clearing ninpo attack, wash, rinse, repeat.

Retro's talents lie in doing amazing things with short amounts of time and creating worlds.
It's way too early to tease us with such awesome Legend of Zelda Wii U boxart.
Exactly! Shooting mechanics in all 3 Primes were good, not stellar! For example boss fights were awesome not thanks to the shooting mechanics, but due to them being puzzles in essence.
FPS adventure mostly aping Border Lands would be godly.

There could be another game along the same timeline if you cast your mind back to that mystery ship at the end. I'd love another Metroid FPA, the GamePad is perfect for it. Wouldn't surprise me if Nintendo announce and/or show what Retro and/or Monolith Soft are developing on the 13th along with some big name third party titles such as BlOps 2...
...or maybe I'm setting myself up for disappointment lol
Well, I know they shouldn't, but that didn't stop them from doing it. If they don't do likewise for PS360 games compared to WiiU games, then they are hypocrites. But that's nothing new.
But that's exactly what happened. See IGN's Xenoblade review: http://www.ign.com/articles/2012/04/03/xenoblade-chronicles-review?page=2
Eat your hearts out.
Might have an idea on what Monolith Soft's up to. There's that UFO picture, and if you visit their site, the Wii U project banner has droplets of water on it, therefore the only logical conclusion one can come to is that... they're working on an alien swimming JRPG.
Or a game about rain....

Was that today?
Also, did Nintendo really say they won't show any Japanese games on the Sept. conference?

The fact that some preproduction demo units are black doesn't mean anything, and definitely not anything near "confirmation". Nintendo had this at E3:
But the 3DS didn't launch in orange. Nor purple, white, or any of the other colors they showed off, except blue and black.
Harmo Knight by GameFreak and The Adventure of Satoru Iwata are all megatons for the 3DS.

No, the fact that Gamestop employees are guessing that there will be black, based on what they read from people who went to E3 and saw black units, means nothing.
But, the purple, orange, white colours weren't playable (I'm pretty sure of this) at E3 '10.
Likewise with the Wii at E3 '06 only white was playable.
Since E3 '12 both black and white units have been playable, with a strong focus on the black one.
I think it will launch, in at least one territory (most likely North America), in both black and white.
(Possibly white only in Europe).

I thought it was already confirmed or at least every single leak mentioned 1.5g
I wonder what they will do for WiiU
They have only done 3DS and DS games, I hope they do something like Moon or DEMENTIUM for WiiU eShop
Like Jet Jaguar already said they haven´t been playable. There wasn´t official promo stuff from Nintendo. And right now, you can choose on the official european and american wiiu sites between a black and a white wiiu.

To those arguing: both black AND white are shown on the Wii U page at nintendo.com as Wii U colors.

But the rules of next gen leaps state that everything must be 10x of the previous gen. We should be getting 5-6 GB of ram!
Isn't that the 720 target?
they are letting you play the black wiiu. they are letting you specifically choose between both colors. thats a little bit more than just looking at it. but right now, lets stop arguing. we don´t know. end of story.

I'm not really interested in his games although I enjoy watching his "day in the life of a developer" videos so I'll be sure to check back for any new ones. Maybe if we're lucky, he'll show footage of some Wii U development tools.

I hate saying this but why argue if the black Wii U has been confirmed if the white isnt confirmed either lol?
We've had the 1-1.5GB RAM figure for over a year now. Nothing new.
No colors... the Wii-U will be clear ;O

Yeah we've moved on to 1.5-2GB. I lean toward the latter for the total.
i hope because wii was white and so its pretty easy to jump to conclusions. i hope^^

This was on the official Wii page at Nintendo.com before launch:
In 2005, not 2006.
So, yet again, Emily Rogers is wrong.
