Indeed.

But until they (and by they I mean Kojima and the 3rd parties in general) reveal something real for WiiU, we can judge them by what they did/said in the past.

By that logic, FFVII should have been on the N64.

Not saying we should ignore the past but we must look at it with context.

We're already seeing far more 3rd party support (especially M rated titles...they account for 11 of the known 23 games in development) prior to launch than the Wii saw and E3 has yet to take place.

Is Nintendo getting more support from 3rd parties this time? Yes. No one denies that.

I'm only saying that words mean nothing without actions. In the past we have seen/heard/read developers praising Nintendo's consoles, and yet they didn't developed anything for them. With this in mind we can (not "should" or "must", just "can") think that their praises mean nothing until they show the games.

The difference being that praise forthe Wii was accompionied by nothing where as Wii U is praised by far more and console support already supports it.

I think a fall 2013 release is the smartest release date for Super Mario 4. With full online and offline coop. The choice of 2D Mario would be ideal for combatting Sony and Microsoft's new hardware since they will give Nintendo a hard time winter 2013. I still however stand by my initial business plan in regards to launch line up. I thin Nintendo's focus should be on new IP as well as some under developed less popular IP and a couple rebooted of old popular IP. The big guns shouldn't be present till next winter and the fiscal year starting in 2013-14. That includes Mario, Zelda and SmashBros. Though I think Pokemon would be a smart IP to use within the first year of WiiU. In fact a day one Pokemon XD sequel for Japan alongside the announcement of a Final Fantasy and Monster Hunter would secure Nintendo's dominance in Japan.

You always make perfect sense ;)

I guess the question is if they'll keep supporting the WiiU after launch... a few 3rd party games at release doesn't mean they'll keep making games for it.

Naturally.  But it's far easier to continue support if you've started support from the beginning than to not support it at first and then try to shoehorn support into your plans later on.

Considering easrly support is far greater with Wii U than Wii and that the capabilites of the system ensure shared assets, game engines, modern prorammable shaders, full online infrastructure, I don't understand why so much doubt.

i agree completly with your points, cuz its good ones. but i am however worried on a personal level that wiiu wont keep its initual support for one reason or another. it might prove to difficult to use the tablet in a unique fashion, kojima stated that he wont develop anything for wiiu unless it takes advantage of the tablet, or it might be that when the next playstation and or xbox wiiu wont be able to keep up to their standards...

"Exclusive unannounced 3rd party titles" ---> I am betting we are going to get some surprises...

That's what I voted for, simply because the Nintendo IP reboot wouldn't be that big of a surprise, and the "$250 price" isn't likely.  Same with the "launching that same day" choice, though that was something I was kind of holding on to a while back (not same day, but within a couple of weeks was my dream).  Truthfully though, I'd love to see them all happen.


I would have to say that I do not want it to launch that day or for it to be 249. I want them to get it right and take their time, and I want them to not lose too much money. I am fine with 300 dollars.

I agree... at least my realist/logical/sensible side does.  Then there's my "I want my damn WiiU NOW"/"I paid full price for my 3DS and deserve a break" side, but we'll just disregard that part.  :D

I'd pay 300 dollars too, but 300 euros is a big jump. So 249 euros is fine for me.

Kojima (aside from being just 1 developer, has never supported a Nintendo console before....ever.  Until the 3DS with MGS3) simply is reiterating his long held work philosphy that he wants to utilize all facets of the hardware that he can when he develops for something.  I can assure you he instantly knew how to work with the Wii U tablet controller as soon as he saw it (think Solid Eye, Camo suit, Metal Gear Mk series, etc...).

As for PS4 and Next, not a problem.  Because the Wii U will have programmable shaders and be 'strong enough', game assets, game engines and the like can be shared across the platforms.  And the online infrastructure will not hold it back either.   Even if the PS4 and Next X are much more powerful than the Wii U, 3rd parties will still find it much easier to support than the Wii was.  Think of it like PC scalability.   Games can run on anything from an HD 6990 to an HD 4670.
