I personally don't remember the DS having any worthwhile games in year 1 myself.

Then again this is a new home console, and the competition is stronger. If they want to grab some of the red ocean market, they need to make the best of their year 1. I realize it won't be oeverwhelming, but the key titles will be there imho.

Nintendo has a studio in the Americas, Retro Studios.

Well can you imagine the opposite?

I can see it now, Iwata appearing in front of investors, a Wii Zapper in each hand making "pew pew" actions at his audience as he declares "Hold on to yer hats fellas, we have so many games for Wii U launch that they're literally comin' out my ass".

If you over-hype you generally fall flat on your face as no reality can possibly live up to the expectation. It's always better to play down the hype.

Retro is not really significant enough; in 15 years the combined sale of their games is about 10 million. They need someone like Rare, who could drop several games a year which would each sell 4-10 million.

Rare was awesome.

HAHA now that would be awesome if he actually did that! If only e3 could be as awesome as this:

That is the most awesome E3 moment of all time. I hope someday we'll see another reaction like that for something.

Im confident wiiu will be a powerhouse.
It will be the third console that i buy day 1.

Don't worry Iwata. Just give me Eternal Darkness 2 by Retro Studios and I will be happy for a while.

Under promise and over deliver.

All independent accounts have pointed to a strong launch lineup. Maybe Nintendo just has higher standards.
