From my own selfish perspective I hope the Wii U becomes like the platform for indie games.

From my own selfish perspective I hope the Wii U becomes like the platform for indie games.
Why is this selfish?
The people who buy COD annually aren't going to care about a minimap and aren't going to notice the difference if any in technical graphics.Disagree, especially if they can demonstrate good gamepad utilization and even upgraded graphics. Of course it hasn't even be announced yet so that may be a stretch. It's also about visibility - even if people are picking it up for another platform wouldn't hurt at all to have it out on store shelves.
Because I'm only going to be buying a Wii U
I'm really excited for tomorrow's Direct. Can't wait! Maybe we'll get Majora's Mask 3D!
Heh.
But really, no warning is necessary. I read a lot, post a little (OK, post nothing.). If the mods know how to check a user's reading habits, they'll see me near the top of all these Wii U threads ... It's exciting; what can I say? (And I'm someone who played Trek 2.1 on the Alto, so I know exciting.) <g>
As launch titles for the system's September 16th launch date!
Has anyone read anything about being able to use the Wii U vertically? It seems like both sides are rounded, but maybe a stand of some kind? Just curious if I missed it somewhere.
the linked interview is here

Only console right? Will you be gaming on the PC?
Here's my video from the Wii U Experience in Austin, sorry for the terrible vertical aspect ratio it was shot by my wife on my iPhone.
ZombiU Multiplayer
You can really see me struggling with the fire button changing to the melee button when not aiming, but once you get used to it, it's a pretty nice idea.
Pikmin 3 Boss Battle
I do pretty bad on this one but I had never played Pikmin with a Wiimote so cut me some slack.
huh, what? I thought Tantalus was confirmed to be working on the port already?! *googles*
Ah! Turns our Straight Right is either a division of Tantalus or they're the same thing or something of that nature. The Tantalus logo is on their website and they're both in the exact same building!

Whoa, there's like 4-5 zombies coming at you. I saw around the same amount in that Buckingham Palace level and the player died cause a zombie came up from behind. I have idea how anyone is going to be able to live through the game's survival horror mode with just one life. It seems difficult enough just dealing with 3 zombies that can take quite a beating and on top of that, you've got limited resources. Hopefully, the game is well balanced.
Question: Did the weapons in ZombiU feel like they had any weight to them?
Would this be it?

I'd use it over a HDD depending on a USB 2.0 port.
Original PS3 was actually bigger...just sayin
When I play MK9, Sould Calibur 4 or Halo, I barely even notice lag. I only notice it if I smack my stick and pay attention. Supposedly the Xbox 360 has a lag of about 133ms vs the Wii U's 116. It shouldn't be THAT bad.
Depends on how it's connected internally, could be a high speed bus like PCIe or something...or USB 2.0.And re: High Speed SD cards. Am I right in thinking data transfer would much be faster than USB 2.0 connected HDD?
Pikmin before Christmas - yay or nay?
Because no one's picking it up for COD. I'd be surprised if many pick up COD for it, considering the multiplayer nature of the game.
ahahah brilliant
they should totally include "HYPE TRAIN" as well

Depends on how it's connected internally, could be a high speed bus like PCIe or something...or USB 2.0.
Also depends on the SD card itself, according to the benchmarks here, class 10 cards max out at well under USB 2's limit (which is approx 30-35MB/sec), while UHS-I ones can go much faster (never even knew about those until now). Looking at some other benchmarks they appear to suck at 4k random r/w like platter drives, but at least the access times are quick.
And by 'people ludicrously good at COD' I mean little turds who kick your a$$ and laugh whilst doing it
So, not you? ;D

that's a game that might help sell consoles, like CoD and GTA5. plus i just fucking want it.That's the one that looks awesome, right ? No. I would think that they would've announced it at one of their conferences if this were the case, though there was a rumor at GN about it.
Is there any chance Need For Speed: Most Wanted: Criterion Perfection is coming to Wii-U?
There is still the product listing for a Wii U version on Amazon.frIs there any chance Need For Speed: Most Wanted: Criterion Perfection is coming to Wii-U?
Hmmn, one can hopeThere is still the product listing for a Wii U version on Amazon.fr
Is there any good reason why it wouldn't be announced for Wii U by now ? They've had two occasions for that already.
HYYYYPE.
Idea man, how big a gain was it percentage-wise? Do whatever it takes to get this answer Ideaman.
Ideaman is just saying that a developer from an already known game got a bump in system performance. Where's the hype?
Ideaman is resting now. We must bake baguettes to wake him from his slumber.
More FPS, more IQ, more on screen graphics and effects.... why you no hyped?

Ideaman forgot to tell you guys that he is actually going into hibernation.
Well, all i can say is explained in my posts: some already announced and presented games on Wii U, saw their framerate greatly improved during their development, since my Spring posts. It shows that developers got a better grasp on the system, on the tools to make their titles on it, etc. And yep, this cool news comes with improvement in the visual department also (more effects, and implementation of anti-aliasing, etc.).
Except EA already had two conferences, whereas Activision had nothing comparable. They were allowed to show/announce Fifa/Madden, but not NfS ? Why ? It's possible, but ... I don't quite see the logic.
That said they already have three titles (Madden/Fifa/ME3) during launch period, that's probably enough for them. I'm pretty sure they're running out of interns to program the Wii U ports. Never forget it's EA. They didn't bother to announce anything substantial for Wii U and their recent comments were not too favourable either, also launch period is already rather packed.
Well I usually only get super excited during the final run-up to a system. That's when all the little tidbits get released. It wasn't until the 3DS was launched in Japan that I truly got excited for it.I doubt they'll have something so groundbreaking that it will make you excited all of a sudden.
I don't even have an HD tele yet.Jesus, none of you lot not got optical out on your TVs? Come on, get with the times!!
This just in: as games near release they get more graphical polish and improved frame rates!
It's amazing what 32MB of edram can do (hint: things that 10MB could not).Anti Aliassing. Dear god, there is a god.
Holy shit i am hyped right now. Fuck jaggies.
I think that's the only thing we don't need to be afraid of, although I wouldn't put my hopes too high (e.g. I'm not expecting MGS5 on Wii U).[/QUOTE]
I'll be ok with ZOE 3 then
