Nintendo's Plans for DLC -http://www.andriasang.com/e/blog/2011/08/01/3ds_wiiu_paid_downloads/

This can be awesome for games like the 4th Smash Bros game.

Don't expect more than 55 characters though.

The 4th game is likely the last game, I could see Nintendo release DLC to keep fans happy for a long time.

Yet you can't see MK doing the same?

Mortal Kombat is different since they always end up making a new game every two or three years, the story mode left things off for another game. Not to mention games like Street Fighter, MVC and Smash Bros have a different audience. Fans had fun with Street Fighter III for 12 years when SF4 came out in 2009 and people still had fun with Melee for half decade until Brawl came out in 2008.

You gotta be dumb to think that Nintendo would end one of their bigger cash cows so quickly.

Hopefully the Wii U will support an achivement type system.

Lol I'm not sure how long it'll be before I get a Wii U probably at launch.

Wii U hardware in Development Hell?

Good, they better not rush anything anymore.

Lets see if they manage to get out of this phase...

Best choice would be dopping the current design of the controller for something less "Apple" and something more "Nintendo".

Slim down the size of the screen and redesign it into more of a Gamecube style controller but with screen support.

Fix the backwards compatibility between the WiiU Controller and WiiMotes and make it so you may have more than 1 WiiU Controller support on the console.

Take time to go in and make sure as hell the tech doesnt skreeonk up like the lazer disc reader in the Wii and is ready to play without problem on launch day.

Kill gimmicks and just give us a Next Gen Nintendo with HD support gaming console.

Add a Holiday Bonus with he console that adds a game with the console on launch (Wii Sports style game).

1st Party Launch titles:

Mario (Platformer)
Single Player with 2 Player co-op

Legend of Zelda
Single Player (Duh)

Super Smash Bros. 4
Party game 1-4 (Maybe 1-8 with added WiiMotes)

Mario Kart
Party Game

Kirby (1-3,64, Adventure style game)
Single Player with 4 Player Co-op

Doing that would just delay the system further too. It's pretty much a damned if you do damned if you don't scenario. Nintendo shoudl have thought things through a bit.

I take it we won't see the Wii U until next Fall since around Spring time. That's a shame since I was hoping that the Wii U would be the perfect 21 birthday gift to me.

I rather have a Great system with a good line up of Launch titles in time for the holiday season than a sysytem released during the middle of the year when im broke and unable to buy it.

Atleast during the HOliday season people would go ape and buy more than one $60 game and a $300-400 system seeing how there will be deals and etc to help them out buy more for less.

With a good launch titles it would give Nintendo a better rep along the community .


Nintendo's major problem with systems and handhelds are that the jump before looking and dont fully think about the idea and not go to far from the "gimmick"(3DS).

[Hellspawn28]

I doubt we will see Smash Bros 4 as a launch title by next year. The chances are that they are just started working on it and we won't see any info on it until next year's E3.

The Wii U does need a great amount of games at launch. I'm pretty sure Arkham City is gonna be a launch title, not sure though.
