you go on the website and register the games you purchased because each game has a card with a code you can type in to register your games and get the coins (points)
after you play the game you can get a survey done for that game for an extra 10 coins
then you can spend your coins on Nintendo stuff even some free eshop downloads it seems
Microsofts E3 is going to be interesting. Probably Kinect madness with the new console at the end.
brb vomiting.Except the PSX menu looked like this
or
depending on the firmware version.
Though maybe that PSX had a different menu than a standard PSX, dunno about that.
I don't really care if the name does not change as long as it has plenty of power and maybe the box is redesigned
everyone seems to know the name WiiU by now anyway
brb vomiting.
Just a little off topic, but I loooooooove the Gamecube's main menu. So soothing.
It's the famicom disk system start-up noise!qubic!
wasn't there something about the startup sound beeing a slower version of something?

eww. How did this pass QA? This is why I prefer simplistic text menus over this revolting UI.
[quote="Nibel, post: 35944781"]Nope, bro.
They added a 3 to the DS brand - 3DS - and people thought that this is just another DS upgrade.
Even though the Wii name is an important brand, I think that they should let it go. They should give this console more identity.
I will never forget the moment where Reggie announced its name. I was prepared for everything but not Wii U :lol[/QUOTE]
Yep totally agree. Wii carries a stigma among gamers, good or bad. and Wii U is just outright horrible.
I could get used to it but, seriously, name change plz.
[quote="Nibel, post: 35944834"]Nah, just tech interested people.[/QUOTE]
This is one time where Nintendo's absolute silence could work for changing the name. Hardly anyone outside of tech interested people remembers what the Wii U is after last E3 since there's been almost no info on it.
Indeed, that PSX (the one actually named "PSX") uses XMB:Though maybe that PSX had a different menu than a standard PSX, dunno about that.
I just wonder...
will Nintendo straight up talk about Wii U on E3 or will they do their old cocktease game.
New Games we know about, some interesting 3DS games, sales figuers, wii ain't no dead, more sale stuff, kid icarus for 20 min., new audience, blah, blah, blah.....oh and...: WII U!
qubic!

let there be ONE minor leak (hardware pic from a foxconn worker) and we hit critical post mass in no time.

This reminds me how I used to have a ton of friends who were hardcore Nintendo fans back in the GC era. They were salivating over any info on the Wii, and when it came out they went all anti-nintendo and were in love with the the Xbox 360. Nintendo really needs to go with a new name if they want to avoid the negative connotations provided with the "Wii" name. These days I'd doubt you would see a fan-made video like that. :/yeah! thats it! thanks!
but lol....some people: http://www.youtube.com/watch?v=MYnenUhD8Qg&feature=related
Yeah, but because of its purple color I remember some saying that it is a kiddie console.
Until RE4 came out.
I don't think people calling Nintendo systems a kiddie console ever stopped, to be honest.

It stopped with the Wii.
Now they create casual consoles :lol

there was already many pages calling the WiiU's pad a fisher price toy
Wonder why there is no thread about the camera resolution yet :lol
It's just as vague.

this would be a justified complaint not the screen because the 3DS camera yuk
they really need to step up a bit on the camera this time
also,
am i the only one who thinks that the logo looks like hellish tacked on?
"hey you! yeah you! janitor dude! i need a logo to show of our new console tommorow!"
"but i'm a janitor. i have no clue wha..."
"SHUT UP! DO A LOGO!"
"ok! what's that thing called?!"
"WII U! WII U! FASTER JANITOR GUY!!!!!"
"OK! WII U.....hmmm......."
The logo looks like a vitality sensor
Except the PSX menu looked like this
or

He did a fine job at least I know wouldn't :/ I suck at public speakingNintendo's presentation was pretty clearly done at the last minute, probably to counteract all the leaks and rumours swirling from a certain French company. And you could tell Reggie hadn't practiced enough in front of the mirror since he made so many mistakes

It would be great if each achievement in a game, will unlock Mii's accessories and other cool stuff

"Sooo ummm our new console the wii you.... what? i....."

Imagining him do this right now :lol
Wonder if we're ever going to see that again. Especially with Valve's stated interest in that technology.
...NINTENDO X VALVE GAME CONFIRMED?
We now present to you, our fans, the newest update on our vitality sensor.
Wii U(r) Pants!
It will detect any excitment in you pants while you play the game.
First games to use this accesoir: "New Love plusplusplusplus - Touch Mii where it feels like pantsu" and "dead or alive: big boobed chicks doings stuff while wearing bikinis"
10 million preorders in Japan. Wii U prints money.jpg?
edit: ARGHHHHHHHH, my eyes. Why did you add that picture?!?!?
Depends on how much info get between now and then. Personally I believe this will be our last.
MAKE IT COUNT, PEOPLE
it would be awesome a fouth thread with a title like:
"Wii U Speculation Thread 4: Because Nintendo never gets a new thread, but just reharshes of old ones"
Of course. It's time to start preparing, isn't it?Wii U Speculation Thread 4: Talk and Post and wait for actual News!
(metajoke) wait, are we talking about the new thread now?
Man that would be awesome.I hope Nintendo packs in interactive demos for various engines on the Wii U...why the fuck not.
