Nintendo Wii U Thread

[Hellspawn28]

I don't like where the analog sticks are at since I'm always used to them being at the bottom of the controller.

Apparently nintendo fails at making a rechargable controller. Nintendo Wii U GamePad has 3.5 hours of battery life and takes about 2 hours to charge is what is being reported. I knew the screen was gonna suck up a lot of energy but damn.

3-5, not 3.5.

That's a LOT better than I expected. And rechargeable.

I don't really know if that is a fail. You can play while it is charging just like any other controller. And yeah, 3-5 hours of battery life on what is both a controller and essentially a big tablet is pretty good.

3-5 hours its ok. I dont know why a lot of people are raging about it.

[Hellspawn28]

3 - 5 hours is the amount that I often play video games now these days. So it seems like a alright power limit for a controller that has a lot of power.

I don't even play that much in a week anymore...

yet I will still have dead controller issues. I never charge the things til it's too late.

Still no official release date. My guess it will be November 2012 and will be around $349.99 plus tax depending where you live.

[Giga Kaiju]

That seems reasonable. Perfect for the Holidays and with a decent price. (although i may get it later on)

[Hellspawn28]

It's likely going to sell out on the first week and most stores won't have new copies until weeks later. It will be like in 2006 with the PS3 and Wii where first released and that most places where out of stock.

[Giga Kaiju]

Now that you mention it...im starting to change my mind...i got caught in that a little and i didnt get the Wii
until early 2008. At the time i may be busy with College but lets see what happens.

I hope we get some good games for the lunch titles and will be a set up over the 3DS lunch titles. We should get the lunch titles line up soon.

[GreenAiden555]

So, Reggie let it slip that Fire Emblem is coming to the US for the 3DS...

We have two (according to Nintendo) days left of game coverage. What else should we expect?

I say nothing aside from one, just ONE, more game for the WiiU.

[Legionmaster]

I won't hold my breath, but a Metroid title would be pretty rad (for the 3DS too).

[zilla103192]

Ehhh... I think I had enough of this years E3. I will just reAd a recap about it then.

E3 sucked this year.

[Giga Kaiju]

Nintendo was the best of the three. But comparing it with other years...it was really bad.

When Nintendo does shit like this is when they piss me off.

They need to plug everything.

However, they got BALLS for not showing Fire Emblem.
