Dreams of a Super Wii U

My favorite part is where the hardware is on par or more powerful than Durango/Orbis and the price is the same or cheaper than the current Wii U SKUs, when Nintendo is already taking a modest loss on Wii U units.

Logic.
 
It's been 4 months! CHRIST!

Besides, nobody can release 2 consoles that quickly. R&D would just eat that money.
 
Go and look back how your plan worked out for Sega before their Dreamcast days. Let's at least wait till E3 before all the WiiU Doooomed notions.
 
I'll never understand the obsession with specs. If devs can make fun games for a system, I don't really care about how many polygons each blade of grass is made up of.

You can have fun dreaming of Super Wii U while I am playing Smash 4 and Bayonetta 2 on my "inferior" hardware.

I'm fine with my Wii U as it is, and I seriously doubt I would have paid much more for it (lolukprices), but it would be ncie to be able to play the big AAA multiplatform releases without having to buy a xbox 730/ps4/good gaming pc.
 
I was going to make a similar thread but on how i dreamed the WiiU, essentially it was:
- Be graphically the Dreamcast of its generation (obviously the worst but without the entire gen gap) and being able to have easy downport of the true nextgen

- Normal wireless on gamepad since the no-lag miracast it's useful only when you play on the gamepad and not asymmetrical gameplay (the thing that supposedly are trying to push) and the gamepad-play is not even a standard feature so might as well throw it away since we have seen that it doesn't sell shit

- sell it 329$/€ being on par or with a little loss

i think that most of the people around here would've liked it and i'm sure it would've sold much better (at least the software)
 
I'm holding out for a price drop and an influx of more first party titles, similar to what happened with the 3DS. How long after the 3DS came out was there a price drop? I remember it going from 250 or so to 170. If that were to happened with the Wii U, count me in.
