damn! and I thought reggie's troll on the pokemon announcement was bad.


As hilarious as this is, I really don't get how Reggie trolled on the Poke announcement? Why because he was smiling when he said it? :D Of course he would, that game alone makes him filthy rich! (I'm exaggerating of course)

lol, I learned my lesson, whenever reggie unviels something while smiling, run the other way! :p

you now now that I think about it, Nintendo kinda trolled everyone(atleast the "advent fans") of all consoles

PS360 fans: pshh! dosen't look better than anything on the PS3/360 infact ot looks a little worse.

WII fans: looks better than anything that the PS3/360 can produce.

than bam!!! nintendo hit them all with a hit-stick!

THQ confirmed today that they already have Darksiders 2 running on the console and they received the kits 5 weeks ago, but they need to make a lot of tunning and personalization to the engine.

LOL. Now this is ok with Nintendo people. Imagine PS3/360 showing PC's graphics and footage and claim the game to be on their console. Why could not they show the list of games? This is totally unacceptable.


My thoughts exactly.  They'll try to defend this, but let's see if Sony or MS ever tried to pass of WiiU gameplay as PS3 or 360 gameplay.  They'd either be outraged or laughing their asses off.  But Nintendo did it, so it's a ok.

You 2 are waaaay off.

If a lesser system (ps3) shows games from an advanced system (Wii U)...that is horribly wrong and lying to customers.

If an advanced system (Wii U) shows games from a lesser system (ps3)....there is nothing wrong with that. It's actually making their game look worse then it is.

Don't get mad because a couple SonyTrolls were caught in the act.

Both of you points are completly backwards......so bizarre !

That's absolutely acceptable, considering the Wii U is in the very beginning of its construction, and not yet ready to provide gameplay like that.



 Been away for a bit, but sneaking back in.

Gaming on: PS4, PC, 3DS. Got a Switch! Mainly to play Smash

well, it's not as bad as having actors pretending to play a game.

Definitely this. And I also never took these to be actual WiiU footage, just displays of the sort of games to come. What I find much (much, much ) more hilarious is this, taken from neogaf:

From the livestream thread.

The reaction to the very same vids. Did I say ABSOLUTELY  hilarious?


lolol. Well obviously games are going to look worse anyway on most low quality live streams...

Also I don't see why this matters; Wii U's more powerful than the PS3/360, obviously it can handle the games and then some.

it doesn't matter if it's more powerful. Compare the graphics between ps3 games that came out in 2007 and 2009 (e.g. Uncharted, Uncharted 2) or psp. It takes some time until developers learn how to take full advantage of a console's capabilities.

And Ninterdo ask them to no-show. This means that the console is friendly to develop :D

"yesterday gave the world its first official look at the all-new Wii U hardware plus (we thought) a glimpse at the graphical capabilities of its next console. As it turns out, the impressive list of upcoming games for the 2012-bound console was just that, a list, with the visuals we saw on screen coming from PS3 and Xbox 360 versions of said titles. Nintendo of America chief Reggie Fils-Aime has confirmed that to be the case in an interview with GameTrailers"

Reggie does clarify that they only used it becasue he thinks the games will atleast look as good on the Wii U

EDIT: LINK (I always forget the link)

That's not 100% true. Lego Cities is a Wii U exclusive, but they only showed screens. Seems to me Wii is still capable of running these games at or above PS360 levels.
