Gamepad being 80$ is not that bad as you will only need to buy 1 if you want two. If you break one..well thats another story. Just dont have it on your floor when you get out of bed lol.
My source told my is not accurate. Sorry for the inconvenience.

Currently polling second in Australia's federal election (first in the Gold Coast), this feral may one day be your Bogan King.

This post was sponsored by Nintendo hired Yakuza goons.

Multiple SKUs confirmed! Seriously though, don't worry about it. Your post was pretty much an average guess, nothing too crazy that caused any trouble.
Good pointing that out, but why did you play a wiseguy before I had a chance to reply to the guy asking why was I talking about Doom3 WiiU.
There was to be a dedicated screen-switch button on the gamepad which would indicate hardware forced switch, guess that it's now in software which mean existing games won't support it, only remakes/remasters re-released on eShop could have.
I feel the same way lately.
That's my primary concern since I started following deeply.
E3 2011 Dummies were so small, like 20% bigger than Wii. But it just becase was a bit wider taller (horizontal position) Even now it doesn't look as big but I got the one picture I think it looks longer than usual:
Really or just optical illusion ? It is the real one because it's locked down obviously.
But this is from 2011

Good to get out before Black Ops 2. Too close and one launch will be overshadowed, launch too late and people wont wait.
Having all versions come out at once with fanfare that Wii U version is (second) best works well.

Bam. Nicely done.
I'll go ham on earth if that fucking Europe rumor is true
I'll fly to the US these holidays and get one

I figured, it didn't really add up. Was looking forward to calling you on it in two days.

Yes, which is why there will be a Wii Remote+ in the box.

Damn I was thinking of trading in my Wii but I forgot I need to transfer my VC games first.
*confused*

Good. It just sounded way too crazy on all accounts.
Stores would probably do the same as the 3DS XL if you need both systems at the same time to do the transfer so I wouldn't worry.

I dunno plugging up your WiiU and Wii is just to much work for that in stores if its like 3DS. Plus I want to open my WiiU at home..alone.
.then sniff it.

It is hard manufacturing 2006 tech.

Yup, it takes time to scrounge through the dumpsters for the chips.

It's not the difficulty of the manufacturing so much as it is that we're not worth the effort.

Opening up those 360s takes time man.

Dumpster Iwata with WiiU's needs to be a thing.
Well aren't you just a cheery Box of Bunnies?
Especially without breaking the cases.
*looks at cracked 360 case*
Ugh that would suck. That means I have to play Xenoblade extremely intermittently because I timeshare the tv with my wife.

Don't apologise, if that's not valid info then it's a sigh of relief for this European.

The power of a console is not determined by its chips and cores - but by its games
It's not 2006 tech but thanks for trying.

Trust me, I think it is just an optical illusion
I think the more interesting thing in that article is if TSMC is the one making the GPU, then they dropped 32nm development which could make that unlikely for GPU7. I guess I need to jump back on the 28nm bandwagon.
Well to help you see where I'm coming from I'm expecting the GPU to have 640 ALUs. I also expect Nintendo to continue to use clock multiples. Since we know the DSP (at least originally) is 120Mhz, then I expect the GPU to be 480Mhz which would put it at 614.4GFLOPs. So using that if I applied that to all the components I could see it like this.
DSP - 120Mhz
GPU - 480Mhz
DDR3 - 240Mhz (or 960Mhz depending on how you prefer to look at it)
CPU - 1440Mhz, 1920Mhz, or 2400Mhz
eDRAM - ? (couldn't find clock speed info)
So IF Nintendo "fine tuned it", in this scenario it would be at 600Mhz IMO and would take it to 768GFLOPs. I'd like it, but I wouldn't expect it. They're free to prove me wrong though.
Considering MGS: GZ (and supposedly Watch Dogs) is coming to current gen consoles, that kind of bump in performance wouldn't matter.
640ALU @ 600mhz on 28nm process would in fact make a ton of sense with the waves of media that have been saying that the GPU is good for the past 6 months or so. I think that is what everything points to, and if so... It won't be quite as far behind as I thought. I hope fixed function shaders are there too, if only so that games will continue to have great lighting that really beats out what we have seen from the current gen.
as for the CPU, those are all interesting clock speeds, here is hoping to at least the 1920MHz, but I can see that 1440MHz coming true.

Can a mod put the time and date of the conference in the title? Thursday, 10 AM New York time IIRC.
