I really hope the sync button isn't like that on the front.

For those complaining about the gloss: How often do you handle your consoles?

My Wii and 360 haven't moved from under my TV since I moved into my house in 2010.

 

[Diablohead]

Time for someone to teach the frag dolls how to do a hardware breakdown

For those complaining about the gloss: How often do you handle your consoles?

My Wii and 360 haven't moved from under my TV since I moved into my house in 2010.

My gloss 360 has minute scratches all over it from dusting and the odd pick up and move, it's just not nice. Matte consoles are the best.

 

[tsab]

I AM JELLY
You won't get disassebled pics though. The NDA forbids it and the owner have to pay.

 

[Toki767]

It looks so fat compared to the Wii.

 

[megarockexe]

Boot it up.

If he wants to make the scoop of his life he has to open it and tell us what's inside.

Ewwww

I bet it's so dirty under your consoles! I guess some Pikmins live beneath them

Eewww

for me, it's more about dust settling on them. My black Wii and my black PS3 60GB look gross compared to my white Arcade 360

And I do dust, just not often enough.

also I have a toddler with grubby little hands.

 

[jerd]

Timeline suggests Gamestop conference, yes

PDP date leak

Wii U units



Looks like Wii U is hot at this conference

Wii U to be playable at Gamestops far in advance of release? Black rope could be theft prevention.

 

[Pitmonkey]

I really hope the sync button isn't like that on the front.

Sharpie markers work wonders.

 

[Rollo Lawson]

I have to admit...in the past couple weeks I've gone from zero interest to pure excitement. Zombie U (for one thing) looks awesome as fuck

 

[shinra-bansho]

Should see if they'll sell it to the GAF collective...

[Anatoli Bacharach]

Glossy black electronics are so dumb.

 

[Anth0ny]

WHAT'S IN THE BOX

 

[ASIS]

WHY AM I JELOUS?!!

I was supposed to take a wait and see approach. Now i know for a fact that I'll buy one immediately at launch.

 

[Graphics Horse]

debug unit apparently (maybe i dunno)

Well those cables don't look like they're for retail anyway.

 

[Pharros]

That arm with the pink sleeve looked photoshopped for some reason, I swear I looked at it for like 3 minutes. Crazy eyes messing with me.

But in regards to the actual focal point of the picture, damnnnn I want that black...

 

[Evershade]

I was expecting a Wii U in a meadow or something. Disappointed.

And now I leave this thread disappointed.

 

[SuperSonic1305]

Glossy black? NINTENDO COPIES SONY AGAIN. They should sue!

 

[hachi]

If he wants to make the scoop of his life he has to open it and tell us what's inside.

Yep, that sure would be a scoop for her to come out as a man.

 

[Mit-]

glossy :/

white it is

Yep.

Swore I'd never scratch up my Wii/DS Lite. Upon closer inspection they're plenty scratched. But only upon closer inspection. Gloss+white or no gloss.

 

[dc89]

Ew. Glossy black.

 

[Baconsammy]

That is not an attractive looking console. Blech. As long as it plays Mario and Metroid though, I guess I can hide it behind something.

 

[MrT-Tar]

Am I the only one who likes the appearance of glossy black? It's just a pain handling it without smudgy marks, which isn't too much of a problem for a home console, unlike my old DS lite

 

[bumpkin]

Seriously? Pfft. It'd annoy me less if it were anyone other than *them*.

 

[Rollo Lawson]

Am I the only one who likes the appearance of glossy black?

No. That shit looks dope

 

[Metroid Hunter]

The GamePad!!!

 

[Icomp]

Glossy looks cheap

Will probably buy it anyway.

 

[Santiako]

That has to be the ugliest console Nintendo has ever made.

 

[megashock5]

WHY AM I JELOUS?!!

I was supposed to take a wait and see approach. Now i know for a fact that I'll buy one immediately at launch.

I know - it's funny, isn't it?

Ever since E3 I've been of the mind that I'll skip the launch and re-evaluate sometime next year when more games are out.

Then I see this picture and I go all, "OMG, NEW HARDWARE!!! WHY DON'T I HAVE IT???"

 

[chertipros]

So sexy. I want

 

[Viola of the Abyss]

I don't mind glossy but that rope is actually somewhat bothering me...
Why does it have to be that thick?

I hope it's just a video or power supply cable and not a connection cable for the controller.

 

[Currygan]

fucking jealous right here. Like, fucking, fucking jealous

 

[Pharros]

Then I see this picture and I go all, "OMG, NEW HARDWARE!!! WHY DON'T I HAVE IT???"

Thank god I'm not alone when it comes to that.

 

[megarockexe]

Now imagine that trend of buying a new console and smashing it in public comes back? There will be rage.

 

[Nibel]

That has to be the ugliest console Nintendo has ever made.

Google Virtual Boy

And Reggie told me "that's just a box"

 

[Baconsammy]

Do we know yet what the video out connector on the back is? HDMI and/or proprietary?

 

[BGBW]

Then they dug further into the parcel and realise they has been sent no games and more importantly no power adapter.

 

[tnaden]

Standard HDMI / WII cable depending on your TV
EDIT:

 

[Santiako]

Google Virtual Boy

Nah, Virtual Boy was charming because it was weird, this is just plain ugly, that glossy black is especially hideous.

 

[dark10x]

If those are real, finished units then at least we can have faith that Nintendo is on track for this holiday.

Nah, Virtual Boy was charming because it was weird, this is just plain ugly, that glossy black is especially hideous.

I'm going to have to disagree with ya.

The Nintendo 64 remains my least favorite. It's simply not attractive to me in any way and has only become worse with age.

Super Famicom or Gamecube are perhaps my favorites from Nintendo.

 

[Sadist]

I need that black Wii U

 

[megarockexe]

Nah, Virtual Boy was charming because it was weird, this is just plain ugly, that glossy black is especially hideous.

To be fair, who has those kinds of lights? The glare won't be very noticeable at home.

 

[Diddy Kong]

Want black so badly!!

I really need to shake this. There's like no launch games I'm interested in but want so bad. My kingdom for a launch 3D Mario.

 

[BLACK AMERICAN PSYCHO]

Dat black

 

[2+2=5]

Yep, that sure would be a scoop for her to come out as a man.

Lol, how could I know? Next time i'll write he/she/it.

Nin-ten-ninjas

A scoop is a real scoop only if it's hard to obtain

Spoiler

and in this case if you are not afraid to risk your life too lol

 

[Deadly Monk]

What is next to the sync button? Looks like a door but the USBs are in the back. Surely that's not just for the SD card?
