Then it is current generation, just like 360 and PS3 became current generation the day they launched!
Handhelds are in their own dimension for me.

Nintendo has a very strict NDA, it seems

Playing Love Plus doesn't get you any closer to the second dimension. Sorry, you'll always be one dimension apart from your waifu.

Yeah, they are very secretive indeed, and we all should be aware of it by now, still I am not expecting much for WiiU from Konam this year, although they may be possibly announcing something for 3DS in a few days.

My aunt & uncle run a Mom & Pop store, "The Gamecube Hut", and sold 80k WiiU within minutes of opening.

I actually think it looks sweet when mixed in with all the other platform logos.
And one thing is sure, it will be very easy to spot whenever its flashed at the end of commercials.
I wouldn't dream of playing Love Plus. Although there is humor to be found in those who do.
Although really, I mean it as they are separate. Not because one is more important than the other.

Xbox has it's Live log, Playstation has the SEN logo, but no Nintendo Network
But it's such a good logo D:or everyone just hates that logo
Wasn't Lords of Shadow 2 supposed to be on the Wii U too?

that is the first new place I saw it this week but I am biased to say it brings a smile to my face to see it so of course its the best logo there
Sadist is right we need a NiN logo
Like the hat?

We also need a new abbreviation for nintendo network because I think of the nine inch nails every time I see NiN. I suggest simply NN.

I can't recall any hints about it coming out on WiiU, either way we'll know in just a few days, although I wouldn't hold my breath for it.
By the way afaik they actually didn't show any actual gameplay footage of it, besides I have been very impressed upon watching new Metal gear game's teaser and as for now seems to have a huge potential and I would take it over Lords of shadow 2 honestly, as much as none of them will probably hit WiiU in the short period.

Something like this?
Or maybe this is to your tastes:
Wow!
They're both really, really good. The second may be a bit funnier, though, because of the slower reveal.
I think what he's getting at is that the units can run software signed with a temporary key, but only from the disc drive. It's quite possible that whatever chip that handles security in each Wii U has a unique private key hard-coded in it and will only run software off SD cards or hard-drives when encrypted with the corresponding public key*, regardless of how it's signed. Hence developers can bring discs with software they've signed to E3, but SD cards or HDDs would require the software to be encrypted for an individual unit, and Nintendo may want to avoid that for the sake of simplicity (eg if any of the units break down).
*I use standard terminology when referring to a "public key" here, but of course each unit's public key would actually be held privately by Nintendo.
Current Wii U dev kits (outside Nintendo at least) aren't in the same form factor as the final retail units. Unless the final form factor is a big ugly box without a Blu-Ray drive, that is.
You people asked for a redesign
People made an assumption that LOS2 was a shoe in since the leadin is on the 3DS. Not saying there is no WiiU version but it wouldn't be totally un3rd party like to try and take advantage of the handheld and totally jip the console owners.
Lucasarts basically trolled everyone. They announced the game and then showed nothing with a tune in Monday to see gameplay.

Pac-Man Vs. HD Edition needs to be bundled with every Wii U.
That's my contribution... carry on.

I've been wondering about this Cloud Gaming thing
the Wii U being a good gap weaker than upcoming consoles could be fixed if it supported one of those companies
but then again with cloud gaming the only limit is broadband limits/caps any hardware can be made to use the network with software. I wonder if it could turn out to kill console makers in the long term

Haha oh god that is so funny, where is that from xD
I think the original Los2 rumour specifically mentioned a Wii U version.

if that's a fake, then its a very good one.
it look real to be honest.
yeah thats what i'm thinking..lol
I think ISPs coming in and demanding a cut of the profits is gonna be an issue and the eventual launch by ISPs of their own services. We see it now with Streaming movies and TV. Comcast has its service that uses no monthly bandwidth meanwhile if you use hulu,netflix etc you use up a ton of bandwidth.
ISPs will get involved and work to penalize people not using something they are making money from so Sony,MS,Nintendo would end up having to either face limitations or playball with ISPs and pay up
It's FFXIII Versus clips being stated as FFXV. It's fake. See following clip: FFXIII Versus 2011 Trailer
Although I have a hunch that Square Enix will have something of interest for Wii U on Tuesday.
Looks like a well done fake to me. Like the system logos at the end are floating above the screen.. unless. lol
well that sucks... oh well lol
This. Although whenever FFXV does end up getting announced, I'd expect Wii U to be one of the supported platforms.
Hype hype hype

May I have a cookie?
what kind of valve support are we talking about? a port? a new game? steam integration?

man that sounds so easy to get painted into a corner with this crap limits
I think technology to change this maybe slow to change like gasoline in cars
if someone came up with a way to get rid of the bandwidth issue these ISP guys would want to find ways to block that venture
If say someone like Google came out with a cap free ISP this could change the trend like they did with web based email storage
can you imagine Nintendo's full IP library sitting on the cloud to click and play?
eShop without no downloads
This is hilarious. Thank you elongation and Gahiggidy.Or maybe this is to your tastes:
sounds unnintendo....HYPE

detectivegaf strikes again.
While it's not Wii U related, I think people are forgetting that we are most likely going to see the next entry in Zelda for the 3DS. For reference, Phantom Hourglass was shown off at E3 07, Spirit Tracks in 09.
With things shaping up the way they are, Nintendo will have their strongest showing at E3 since 2006. Take 2006's Wii reveal, buzz and game demonstrations and pair that with the 2010's game-after-game announcements. That's what to expect from Nintendo this year. Not to mention some pretty heavy hitters for the 3DS like Zelda above, New Super Mario Bros 2, Pokemon Black & White 2 (yes, I know this is for DS, but they'll posture it as something for the 3DS as well) and Nintendo's outline of its Nintendo Network implementation and partnership with a certain external developer.
It's going to be quite special.

together with a Vita version that didn't appear in the trailer (just PS360), so...
