U Don't Play Sports?
Haha. But seriously, what does the UPad bring to the table for sports games that the Wii didn't? Just seems like there's more potential elsewhere.
U Don't Play Sports?
Seriusly guys...
I think we got more than we hoped for from the investors meeting
Lets hope that E3 will deliver the same way.
BTW dat Smash Bros Close... I hope Reggie or Iwata responds to it with something like: "Now one of our competitor, desperate for success, trying to blatantly copy our Smash Bros game. This truly shows how Nintendos software plays a huge part in our strategy to be successful"
I really hope Treyarch and Eurocom port over their customisable Wii remote + nunchuk control schemes from Black Ops and Goldeneye to the sequels on Wii U. Adding a Wii control scheme option should be really simple for them, and it will be a bad sign if they ignore it.
I want NiN news, dammit!

But I find the Wii Sports equivalent far more interesting, difficult to imagine what it might be.
Actually, it's kinda funny. Iwata says that he wants to make a Wii Sports equivalent, but can't tell people because it might get copied.
Fast forward a few hours...

I can't tell if you're trying to say it's just going to be Wii U Sports (which it isn't) or what?

No, I know it's not Wii U Sports. I just think it's funny that Iwata expressed concern for one of Nintendo's ideas being stolen, a few mere hours before a giant game reveal for one of Nintendo's ideas being stolen.
Let's see... From last E3...
Madden with hidden play calls on umote
Using the sensor bar in the umote to help keep golf swings straight
Catching pop flies on the umote in a baseball game
Stuff I can think up in less than a couple minutes...
Using the touch screen to dynamically change character formations and draw new routes in any game where you use teams (soccer, football, basketball etc)
Base stealing on the touch screen in a baseball game
Overhead maps for shot planning in a golf game
Hes saying Iwata wants to keep it secret because Sony will pull a All Stars
It just shows how insanely poor Sonys game desingers are if they have to resort to blatantly rip off another companys franchise.
I wouldn´t write this if this game would be diffrent and maybe introduce something new, but that trailer looks like a total clone...
This totally justifies Iwatas stance on not showing it too early because it could be copyed. Whatever they bring as the WiiU packin must be on the Shelves before a "copy" from Microsoft and Sony can make it to the store shelves!
I can see a few killer apps already.... like Draw something and Scribblenauts u
I would do anything for scribblenauts!
It's nothing new for developers to copy other games, look at all the Mario Kart clones for example, but Nintendo has been guilty of this in the past too, wasn't Devil World a Pacman clone?
The thing with Playstation All Star Battle Royale though is that it's a bit too blatant a copy, in that the whole concept of having a console manufacturers line-up of characters and mascots in a fighting game with that gameplay has been done already. It's pretty safe to say it wouldn't exist without Smash Bros.
To be honest though I don't mind it, the game looks OK and might help the wait for the next Smash Bros a little, besides some of the stage stuff they're doing looks really cool.
This may pushes Nintendo to say something about the new Smash Bros on E3. But i think kits too early for ingame footage of any kind. Sakurai just finished KI:U... A few month of development time is not enough. Or a team already started development with Sakurai overlooking it and joining them when he finished KI:U...
Anyways i belive Smash Bros U will be a big hitter at E3 2013, as will be 3D Mario U, wich may will at least be announced and may have a short trailer/screenshots this E3.
I think we'll get a smash teaser. It might just be a logo and a character reveal but it'll throw everyone in a tizzy.
I agree, though I think SSB 3DS will be the only one shown at E3 2013, with the Wii U one not showing up until 2014, hopefully I'm wrong though.
Edit: I just realized the confirmation of no price announcements at E3 practically confirms it won't come out 'til Q4.
Seriously, just do the Brawl thing ('upgrade' Mario, Kirby, Link and Pikachu) on screen (Graphics = wow), prepare a single stage and have it run on Brawl's engine show for 3 seconds and reveal a character. Get hype.
The only problem is there's no possible way they'd have enough time to put something like that together by E3. Sakurai would have had to modify the game engine and get a TON of asset work done under 6 months time. No way man.
I highly doubt the 3DS and Wii U Smash Bros. will be revealed separately, what with the connectivity between the two being a selling point.
How about "TuU" for a rename?
I'm not sure selling points mentioned at E3 last year really matter when the game just started development.

I'd avoid posts like this for another 90 or so, if I were you.
Except Sakurai just restated it: http://www.neogaf.com/forum/showthread.php?t=471734
Notice; "The key to that's going to be its dual support for 3DS/Wii U."
Just woke. up and saw that playstation battle royale, stunned by how much of a rip-off it is.
They want a game that had the same impact as Wii Sports, not the game itself
