The mystery poster must be Grammaton Cleric or Pedro. I'm going with Pedro based on grammar.
Out of all the sequels Nintendo could have funded ... Bayonetta? Why? Vader's going to end up with another pile of copies to finish.
They could have blown the money to help get Dennis Dyack out of his funk to create a sequel to Eternal Darkness.
Also, Pikmin 3 is a myth. Nintendo fuckin stop lying.
Don't think the Zombie pack-in is such a great idea. It's a console a lot of parents will potentially buying for their children. Why pack a gory game in? Pack in should have been New Mario U. It would be flying off the shelves.
On the whole ... not sure I'll be buying the U on launch.

If Bayonetta 2 was on the PS4 or the XboxNext they would have to shell out the money for it as well. Though they would have so many more games worth owning to choose from also.
Well I don't know, people like what they like. While you or I may find more then one game to like on a system I'm not going to say others should. Bayonetta would have been on the 360/PS3 but even if it would have been on the 720/PS4 it would still be on a natural progression of their system of choice so most if not all of the games they liked would also be on it.

- The Zombi U pack in is a ltd edition for europe which includes NintendoLand too
- Deluxe is just Nintendoland
- Basic is no pack in game
Saw the Japan conference, lots of game footage there if you are interested.
Watching the USA conference nao
- Wait, you guys had a proper stage conference? We got a nintendo direct style one man to camera job
- This is like the E3 conference part 2
- Skipping this metroid crap
- Pikmin adventure! What no footage?
- K im skipping all this and tvii
- Activision time, stop talking, show games already
- Okay Transformers prime was a wii game ported to U, no way it can look that janky.
- 007 is using the same engine as REloaded I think, essentially an enhanced Dead Space Extraction engine. i.e wii 1 engine enhanced.
- COD now. Looks okay
- This was an hour long? Ours was half that.
I'm not sure what to do now. I want a black Wii U but that means paying for a game I do not want in NintendoLand.
They are doing a ZombiU ltd ed. bundle here but it has Nintendoland too and is even more expensive than the deluxe bundle. Nintendoland does not seem to have as much single player value as wii sports did.
I guess I could buy the bundle and sell NintendoLand? But what if it comes in a cardboard sleeve and not the proper retail box? I would get no money back on it?

We have a winner. Grammaton's post was way more harsh and eloquent.

NintendoLand looks like a far more fleshed out proper game than Wii Sports. I know a lot is multiplayer focused but I think it can all be played alone too.
;font-family:georgia;font-size:14px;line-height:19px;">REGGIE:;font-family:georgia;font-size:14px;line-height:19px;">The Nintendo Wii U may only have 8 to 32GB of internal memory, but the company's taking a decidedly open approach to expanding that memory: add your own. "You can plug in a full-on three terabyte hard drive if you want. I'll love you as a digital consumer," Nintendo America CEO and president Reggie Fils-Aime told us during a post-press conference investor Q&A. Much like Sony's PlayStation 3, the Wii U allows for expansion of memory via USB, whether that memory be Flash or otherwise. Fils-Aime explained that, with the continuously dropping price of memory, there was little reason to offer pricing for the Wii U -- available in $300 and $350 -- tied to an evolving hardware model.;font-family:georgia;font-size:14px;line-height:19px;">"The reason we did it that way is that the cost of that type of storage memory is plummeting. What we didn't want to do is tie a profit model to something that's gonna rapidly decline over time. We'll let the consumer buy as much as they want, as cheaply as they want," Fils-Aime said.
Wii U is sold out of preorders at almost all local Best Buys. Already got mine (second one ) Any worry about this not selling well should be put to rest.

It does look fleshed out, but for multiplayer. I want something I can play in single a lot.

In japan it seems like it from what Iwata said. I haven't seen it mentioned in any western bundles.
travo said:I'm trying not to read to much about Nintendoland and just be surprised when I first play it. GG, it appears to have a longer lasting value than Wii Sports. I hope we hear about a proper Mario, Zelda and Metroid follow up before June.
Plus Retro's game, Monolithsoft's game and Arika's game. I'm glad about a few confirmations:
- COD Blops 2
- Epic Mickey 2
- 007 Legends
All of these games would have come to Wii 1 anyway but it's nice to get the better looking versions with IR. I probably won't get blops 2 though based on blops.
With as many exclusives as Nintendo always gets, you honestly think somebody, and I don't care who, couldn't possibly find more than 1 game worth owning? Cmon.
If Bayonetta 2 was on the PS4 or the XboxNext they would have to shell out the money for it as well. Though they would have so many more games worth owning to choose from also.
