I don't care if anything Ono says ever pans out. Rumors are fun.

It's been rumored for years that he only has one testicle. That quote pretty much confirms it's true for me.
He is saying that the possibilities of the Wii U will be hard to convey through magazines, on the box of the system, and other mediums.

This somehow reminds me they said something similar about the 3DS.
"You need to see with your own eyes...".
Not saying I think WiiU tablet is going to feature a 3D screen, it's too much big of course, so we have to figure out what these secret new features are.
First thing that comes to my mind is that Vitality sensor thingy, maybe they haven't fully disclosed it yet for some valid reason.
Capcom VS Nintendo confirmed

Wait until Spaceworld.
To be fair after 2010, 2011 was always going to disappoint. 2010 gave us this video and the Konami conference.
That make me think about the street demo, I tried to explain how it worked to my brother but he couldn't really understand what it was really about until I show him a trailer. The concept is hard to explain to the non technology enthusiast, you need experience the thing.

As far as I am concerned, it was a great E3 for Nintendo.
* Quite a bunch of great 3DS announcements and new footage(MK7, SML3D, MH3G, Luigi's mansion, Kid Icarus, Animal crossing)
* WiiU's announcement, a little underwhelming as we have seen any in-game footage, but that was too early and was basically just in preparation for this year's E3's conference.
Capcom characters in SSBU confirmed.

If only Nintendo shows new hardware? Hardly.
If Sony and MS announce their new consoles as well? Definitely.

That was already known since last E3 man

Actually I am not particularly fond of he idea of Super Smash Bros having too many third parties' characters aside from the odd guest stars; Nintendo has already pretty a bunch of IPs of its own, instead a Capcom vs Nintendo 2D BEU would make much more sense.

I'm kind of surprised we got this far without a really stupid joke like mine. I'd wonder if it's the result of GAFers maturing but I know better.

Man, I would kill for another video like that at this E3.
I'd say that's referring to all the combinations of how you can use the Wii U.
TV with extra screen, TV off, and if they are supporting more than one controller now that's another load of options. Once you open up more than 1 controller, and ignore the asymmetrical gaming bollocks that was purely a bandaid for what was missing, you then have a LOT of potential.
Even if it's a kludge, and sends alternate frames to each controller because of bandwidth limitations, you still then have a boardgame scenario, hidden play select for sports games, weapon select for Mario Kart, flicking items from one pad to another and from the pads to the screen, loads of things you can do.
As a concept, Wii U is basically strangled by the one controller thing. It's much harder for people to get, and plays against Nintendo's greatest strength - local multiplayer.
The asymmetrical stuff can still be done, but it's not a simple sell, and even the demos that they showed at E3 such as Chase Mii can be done better with more than 1 tablet. As you could switch the master and slave on the fly. No waiting for the round/game to end and passing it around.
Yeah I agree. Megaman might be in though. It would be nice if they add only a couple of third party characters, so it doesn't become too crowded.

That's a good point indeed...
Best part of that came afterwards when he actually came on stage with a burnt up looking jacket.
It's a bit comforting to know that we can probably count on early Capcom support within the first year or two but it doesn't come as a big surprise given Capcom's relationship with Nintendo. Although, there's no particular upcoming current-gen game I'd like to see ported to the Wii U except for RE 6 (as long as its not like RE 5 of course).
Just regular Street Fighter IV in 720p/1080i, that is more likely

Just the tiniest bit of hopeful news is great.
There are people Capcom who have worked on Vampire Savior(I assume you are talking about DS3). Not that they'd know where to even begin with that series.
No, no he did not.

Oh God I actually thanked Ono. What the fuck have you done to me, Nintendo?
Some of them apparently left and went on to make make Guilty Gear, Hidetoshi Ishizawa(Planner for Vampire Savior) has worked on tons of fighters at Capcom(Third Strike, Capcom Fighting Jam, MvC2, TvC, MvC3 and more) and others just disappeared into the ether.
It is hard to get excited about a piece of hardware that's 6 years old

I hope Nintendo launches with much more than Wii Udraw to showcase what you can do with the tablet.
