Ohhh Monolithsoft Wii U game. Hopefully its a giagantic monster budget JRPG.

Confirmed. New IP, new RPG they want to make something on scale with Fallout 3

It is an rpg, don't know about the budget but they said they want to match Bethesda for scale and graphics.

Which platformer will be better NSMBU or Rayman Legends. No matter what happens we win.

So it's confirmed.

Nobody actually reads my posts. Vader on Bayonetta, wish they would save Shenmue 3!

Wii U...$350, 32 gigs, Pikmin 3, Blu Ray support....I think I'm sold!  I probably won't be able to afford it until 2013.   I'm also disappointed that it'll take both Wii and Wii U to transfer games, especially since I'll want to trade in the Wii to afford the U.

Quick, link your wii shop account with a nintendo.com account, you can do this through the wii menu. It then logs all the VC and WiiWare games you have downloaded. When you buy your Wii U link your U account with your Nintendo.com account and you should be able to re-download all your software. I did this with my Wii when they sent me a new unit with new serial number etc and it worked out beautifully.

NO GAMEPAD SUPPORT for VC or Wii games.

Of course not. That would have been a really nice feature. Nintendo can't have that.

Seriously, that is majorly fucked up. I could be playing Cyberrnator on the gamepad screen. Or Super Star Wars. They fucked it and better fix it through the OS, I mean they have 2GB of RAM to use and a system vastly outpowering Wii and they cannot even send a wireless video signal to the pad like they can with actual Wii U games?

This time, at the same store, I got high fives from the dudes at the counter who said they also preordered it and couldn't wait.

Either reaction would freak me out. Boundaries.

I want to know what Treyarch mean when they said that Blops 2 would run in "full HD, 60 FPS" on Wii U. Is full HD 1080p or it he inferring the other versions are sub 720p like Halo 3 etc and many other games.

Until someone pluses your post.

Classy

Pikmin spotted

Okay I have not heard Activision 100% confirm this, they did 100% say that Wii U BLOPs 2 runs at "full HD 60 FPS"

I have read some forum comments saying:

"Yes ... and definitely native 1080p , no crappy upscaling."

"it does show the Wii U's capabilities, especially considering that the resolutions on the 360 and PS3 have always been sub-HD that has been upscaled. The fact that the Wii U version is full HD would show the console to be potentially more powerful than the other two."

Also it spits out a 60FPS 480p image to the touch screen whilst doing this?

I would like to get proper confirmation from Activision, I think they mean that it's 720p on Wii U and the other versions are sub HD like usual. But the Wii U screens are all 1080p

One new pic:

NGamers reaction to the Bayonetta 2 hate:

"I also remember the outrage felt by my Nintendo-loving mates when Squaresoft announced that Final Fantasy VII wouldn’t be arriving on the Nintendo 64 after all and that they’d made the jump to PlayStation, or the anger felt when Microsoft bought Rare. So to suggest that yesterday’s outbursts were the first ever incident of “butthurt” ever felt by a set of video game fans would be as mindless as some of the imbeciles that spouted their nonsense last night.

However, back then the internet was but a mere foetus, and the ability to spread this rubbish was severely limited. Back then I had one knob in my class who was adamant that Sega would be on top for the next 30 years because they had the “magnificent” Ecco The Dolphin (true story), but I was comforted by the knowledge that his ramblings wouldn’t even travel as far as the next classroom. Now such idiocy can be quickly slapped online for thousands to see, even more if websites pick up on it and quote it (um, like we just did at the start of this article)."

Vader was this you?

Really?

I was wondering how 007 Legends U version might sell compared 360/PS3 so I looked up some Goldeneye sales

• Wii 1.69 million
• PS3 570k
• 360 360k

PS3 sold better cause of Move? Wii sales are pretty great, on par with COD Wii games. Wish they would put reloaded on U with IR support.

Transformers Prime:

"The game utilizes the power of the Wii U, featuring dazzling visuals in 1080p resolution"

Story in the updates says COD Black OPs 2 is 1080p 60FPS on Wii U, I still think it's 720p though.
