Oh, this is such bunk. What a waste of a mouse click.

No one's saying Wii U isn't suitable for an MMO, but it doesn't even have a hard drive.  I mean, come on. It's not gonna happen. Isn't WoW's install over 10gb?

Well if people want the game then thy can buy a usb stick or HDD to play it

But yeah lol this is BS anyway so it doesn’t matter

Perhaps there will be multiple models, and the more expensive ones have hard drives?

WoW on a console?! lol!

to all of you who said that the tablet will make the gameplay possible... have you all played wow? How will you be able to fit the thousands of abilities/spells on that screen + all the bags/inventory + how will you manage the targeting system + gl on all of you who will have to move the camera with a joystiq instead of a mouse in PvP, and healers I wish you luck healing your raid... how will you be able to target your heals? Put the raid/party UI on the touchscreen? If you do that where will you put the thousands of abilities you will need to use... SO MANY flaws in gameplay it would be impossible. And even IF they manage to make it work I SERIOUSLY doubt the gameplay could be as good as on PC + the fact that you probably wont be able to use mod doesn't make it worth it. I see this MAYBE slightly possible to make it work in PvE (but still wouldnt possibly work in hardcore endgame PvE) but I see no way to make the gameplay work for pvp in a way that those who play it on WiiU are not at a HUGE disadvantage against those playing it on PC unless they do WiiU only servers.

+ like some ppl before me mentioned, the game takes like 10gb or more of memory.

Edit: + lol at chatting... how the hell are you going to chat with other ppl? use the touchscreen as a keyboard? that would mean that you would have to interupt the gameplay everytime you wanna talk to someone, just hope that your squishy mage wont get ganked by a rogue or a hunter while you have your entire gameplay enterface gone because your whyspering someone. another huge disadvantage to those playing on wiiu.

Only possible option is if the WiiU allow us to connect a keyboard/mouse, drop the table controler and connect a keyboard and a mouse to the WiiU and play it like it was on PC. Only possible way for game play but still would feel awkward for me to play this on my TV with a mouse/keyboard and the lack of mods wouldnt still make it worth it and the huge size of the game file still makes it unlikely to happen.

Stop pretending you don't like Layton.

All you'd have to do is map common functions to the buttons and allow the player to customize the tablet's options. Seeing as the controller's screen is the size of a keyboard, I doubt there won't be enough space.

Really. I've played a bit of WoW, and I never saw anybody with "thousands" of spells.

that would be pretty cool actually

Trust me, as a lvl 85 mage (who quitted the game like 5months ago thank god) you have alot of spells to use endgame. I have to polymorph, nova, control my pet for freezes, blink, icelance, frostbolt, cone of cold, deep freeze and many many more (I will spare you the rest). Also I have to be able to do this while switching targets instantly in arenas example: I want to plymorph a target + use my pet freeze while casting + the second the cast is over use deepfreze on the other target in order to keep 2targets at the same time CCed. I see no way possible with the tablet controler atleast in a way that wouldnt take you forever giving you a huge disadvantage. In pvp and endgame pve every second counts and I see no way to switch target, use all you abilities while being able to see whats around you by controling the camera with only that controler w/o a keyboard and a mouse.

Also I was editing my post while you posted this bringing other issues like chatting. But I also said that the only way possible IMO is if we can connect a keyboard/mouse to the console, but even if we can do that I dont see it being worth it since you wont be able to add mods and the size of the game file still makes this unlikely.

 it seems a little too good to be truth, however if for some reason this end up being the real thing... Man, I going to be soooo broke... E3 has to come soon!
