What can be expected from the September 13 conference?
A lot of good stuff.
Hardware:
- Launch Date
- Price of SKU(s)
- What colors will be available
- What is included in the box
- Amount of internal flash memory
- Price of the WiiU Pro Controller
- (Maybe) Hard Drive options/prices
Software Installed on WiiU:
- More about the OS
- More about MiiVerse (including Accomplishments?)
- Details about account system/friends list/online (some, at least)
- Details about included software (games & applications)
eShop:
- (Maybe) see the interface
- List of titles at launch and launch period
- Updated Demos
- (Maybe) news about eShop and retail demos for the consumer
Retail Software:
- Titles at launch
- Dates for key software not at launch (P-100, etc.)
- Announcement of Unconfirmed 3rd party ports:
> BLOPS 2
> (Maybe) 007 Legends
> (Maybe) Need for Speed: Most Wanted
> Something on the Japanese developed side
- Nintendo Land blowout:
> What the other 7 attractions are (not just what IP)
> What the hub is for (if anything)
> How accomplishments work and potential friend list integration
- Updated Demos
- (Maybe) some title being packaging with peripherals (wii-mote +, WiiU Pro Controller)
And maybe, a tease or two regarding 2013 software outside the the launch window.
Important: What we won't see:
- Specs released or discussed by Nintendo
- Spoiling all the big guns they have slated for E3 2013
