My dream scenario: Wii U releasing this holiday for 299-349 right up against PS4 and Bone. Can you guys just imagine it? Holiday 2013 under a different name, 299-349 USD, more powerful, HDD, no tablet, a new account system, no region locks, achievements, lots of third party support (GTA, CoD, FF, Street Fighter, all the PS360 stuff really), keep the partnership with Sega, Monster Hunter, Bayonetta, tons of Nintendo IPs, etc. Add remote play via 3DS and boom!

This would probably be a day one console for me. It would feel like Super Nintendo all over again: powerful, Nintendo IPs and crazy 3rd party, except now with Sega on board too.

How about you guys? What would be your ideal scenario for the Wii U launch?


I don't understand why so many people hate the gamepad...
It is really neat and adds a lot to some  of the games.  What your asking is just great graphics for Nintendo franchises?
Nintendo is different and that is what I at least find the most appealing of all the consoles.

Nope, do not need great graphics from Nintendo IPs (though of course the prettier the better). But a more powerful console would be certainly more competitive when getting those third party "AAA" high budget titles.

Nintendo being unique and different is nice, but they can't make up for everything. Goddamn, some features are considered essential nowadays and they ignore them - make-or-break stuff such as accounts, and to a lesser extent optional stuff like achievements who sway people to the competition.

What I mean is, Nintendo makes some sacrifices that shouldn't be made. They could have EVERYTHING. They could easily be the crystal-clear best option out there (see how often Sony and MS fuck up and Nintendo doesn't capitalize on), but for some reason they don't seem to try to.
