Well I hope there's some kind of informative Nintendo event before the Wii U's release. It seems to ALMOST fit their ND schedule and at the same time can be used to show more games!
The system will be RELEASED by then, why would we need a Nintendo Direct to talk about features we can actually USE instead?
That's what I also hope will happen.
P.S this is completely off topic but does anyone have the link to the old NeoGAF in 1999+ days? I want to see the topics lol
It looks barren this year, only 4 notable titles:
Paper Mario, Sonic and Sega All-Stars Racing, Scribblenauts Unlimited, Epic Mickey Power of Illusion, Skylanders.
Early next year is already better, maybe not in quantity but definitely quality:
Luigis Mansion 2, Castlevania Lords of Shadow Mirror of Fate, Monster Hunter 3 Ultimate, Fire Emblem Awakening, and most likely Animal Crossing.
Hey, what happened to Non-Specific Action Figure?
What happens when you press the home button on the gamepad.I'll be at the Los Angeles WiiU Experience tomorrow morning.
Any requests?

Nintendo doesn't keep a strict schedule for Directs. We had two in June, one in August, 1.5 in September. Expect more than one yet before Wii U launch.
All but one (in June) were. I guess we're overdue then. :3I kinda disagree with that since some of those were special NDs.
Must be a Europe thing;
Edit; Beet.

I need a wallpaper of the black version of this box. It must be my favorite box of a product if a long time since Apple boxes

Take a picture of the back of the system.

also for those who opened a Wii box on launch day years ago is the blue of the cardboard inside this this same blue that is outside now?
I forgot that one, I was thinking the DQX one!I thought the one in August was dedicated to 3DS again making it not a special ND? I think we're on track.

It is quite a nice box.

Here is a page from 2004.
http://www.newegg.com/Product/Product.aspx?Item=N82E16820171499&nm_mc=KNC-GoogleAdwords&cm_mmc=KNC-GoogleAdwords-_-pla-_-NA-_-NALooking at that nice and clean design of the basic set box makes me feel better about my white wii u preorder... now if only I could get that extra 24GB of storage, though. :\
Thanks, there was another one when NeoGAF wasn't NeoGAF yet, it was another site and it was during 1999 - 2004.
Yeah, but I'm anticipating that the Wii U OS will organize the internal and expanded storage into separate "buckets". It would be nice to keep all your downloaded apps and utilities on the main board bucket, while your games are all on a huge external drive.http://www.newegg.com/Product/Product.aspx?Item=N82E16820171499&nm_mc=KNC-GoogleAdwords&cm_mmc=KNC-GoogleAdwords-_-pla-_-NA-_-NA
I think I'll be fine with 8 gigs until next year when I pick up an HDD. I have an extra 16gb stick around if need be
I forgot that one, I was thinking the DQX one!
October ND confirmed, 3DS focus w/maybe a little more WU.
was DQX Wii U version shown online? because I am listening to 8-4 and they were disappointed of what the improvements were but never seen this news on NeoGAF
link pls?
I noticed that the Basic Set has a clean spine, so I erased the words on the Deluxe Set.
I was actually upset about Wii U not playing blue rays. I have a PS3 for that, but will be moving it into my son's room at launch. But I realized that I rarely watch blu ray anymore; 95% of what I watch now I stream...so no worries!No movie playback, I'm afraid. But surely you must have a crapton of devices around the house that can already...

Yeah, but I'm pretty sure that is from the pre "NeoGaf" branding days. Its from the www.gaming-age.com site's server, that's for sure.
Here's is the archive of that page from the WayBack Machine... unfortunately, many of those links go to a login page (dead end):

Japanese devs tend not to have much at launch actually, they've historically been loaded with cheap Puzzle and Board games too. For previous major consoles within the first month.
"Why waste $50 on the deluxe, save that money to buy a much higher quality Monster HDMI cable!"No way on earth it was serious, but i can't wait until a troll tries that one.
If you were a pessimist you could say that the features might not make it to launch.The system will be RELEASED by then, why would we need a Nintendo Direct to talk about features we can actually USE instead?
Get a 32GB card for like $10-20? Well it isn't be a UHS one for that price but I imagine they've tested with slower cards anyway.Looking at that nice and clean design of the basic set box makes me feel better about my white wii u preorder... now if only I could get that extra 24GB of storage, though. :
Well the Wii one looked pretty choppy in heavily populated areas (or maybe really bad with lag?) so just an upres plus beefier hardware should be nice if it at least cleans the framerate up. And it has nicer shadows apparently!Yeah it was but I'm really surprised that people were expecting any more from square. I mean, do people remember final fantasy 11 on the xbox 360? It was just an upressed version of the ps2 game. And final fantasy normally always makes graphics a higher priority than the Dragon Quest series
I've just realised that the Black Wii U looks eerily similar to my black Western Digital "MyBook" 1TB external Hard Drive - which I'll be using it with.
It'll be like having two Wii Us in your setup.
Haha. I remember it because it was early in the morning and I refused to get up just for more 3DS info.

What happens when you press the home button on the gamepad.
I dont think I know this yet lol
Awww oh well guess we find out launch.At the GS Expo last month I pressed the home button and nothing happened. There was a Scribblenauts station left unattended so I figured I'd try pressing all the extra buttons like the TV and home button, even held them down to see if anything special happened (nope).
Also I checked the back and if you guys are wanting shots of the sticker on the back (I'm assuming?) it's covered by the tethering harness.
Which is why I expect another Nintendo Direct in a couple weeks. We just got Nintendo TVii out of nowhere. Wouldn't be surprised if Nintendo unveils some more surprises in regards to Nintendo Network and how you find your friends online to play games.
