  • There will be pre-intstalled software on Wii-U, just like on 3DS
  • Their developers have lots of versions of the console (???)
  • Wii-U's line-up is amazing
  • What happened with the 3DS won't happen again

  • Ubisoft's line-up is this:RaymanLegends, Assassin's Creed 3, Just Dance 4
  • Killer from outer space will be aviable a few weeks after launch

  • They showed Ubisoft a lot of new features, some we still have to see
  • Graphic card will be a Radeon HD 6770

  • Xbox 8's graphic card will be more powerful than Wii-U's
  • However, Ubisoft isn't developing on Microsoft's new console yet
  • Ass Creed 3 on Wii-U runs at 60 fps, with 1080p, against 360's and PS3's 720p
  • This developer decided to leak these information on Mario's castle because, by going in a more populated forum, he would have risked too much
  • Wii-U's launch price will 450$
  • After what happened with 3DS' launch, however, Nintendo decided to lower Wii-U's price: the final ne hasn't been confirmed yet, but apparently it will be about 350-400$
  • He doesn't know much about First Party
  • Crytek, EA and Valve are working on Wii-U
  • He doesn't know much about Valve, but he heard that they are making something similar to Steam and Portal's franchise
  • No informations about the online store
  • Ass Creed 3 will be playable both on PS3 and Vita
  • He didn't see much about gamertags
  • There will be achievaments
  • He knows something about 3DS and Wii-U interaction, but he didn't want to say more
  • Wii-U's interface will be the most customizable interface ever made by Nintendo
  • Rayman Origins' demo for 3DS wasn't made by Ubisoft, it was made by another team
  • He decided to leak these informations because he loves Nintendo's new console
  • At E3 we'll see something more impressive than these news
  • Wii U has 2GB of RAM, 560MB of that are for the OS
  • supports DX11, they managed to port Unreal Engine 4 on it
  • less powerful than Xbox 8
  • 2 tablet-pads are supported
  • Release Date: 23 November
  • Ubisoft will bringRaymanLegends, ACIII, Rabbids Party, Killer Freaks, The Avengers and Just Dance 4 on it
  • That little button under the D-Pad on the left of the controller is somehow linked to theWiiVitality Sensor
  • No Analog R2/L2 unlike 360 controller/DualShock3
This is all coming from a translated post from an italian gaming site, so take it with a grain of salt. By the time E3 comes around, I am sure we will know most of this information for sure.
What part of the list jumps out at you the most?
