"specs wisse its going to be close to Basic 4GB 360 but with a more advanced pad"

The WiiU has nothing to do with the Xbox 360, it has 3 or for times the RAM, a better gpu and a more modern cpu,
the storage capacity has not been unveiled yet, also the launch price hasnt been announced....


Im just going off reports it comes with 8gb internal storage and is on par with 360/PS3, you seem to be making stuff up, if not id be interested to see the announcements for its 2gig of ram you seem sure it has. Theyve said its running an IBM power processor which is what 360 has, yes it could be alot better but that wouldnt fit with all the on par spec reports weve seen. 

I stick with what ive said based off the information thats currently available, if that information changes so will my opinion.

So, Microsoft copied Nintendo by bringing the Kinect but Nintendo didn't copy Sony by bringing the Wiimote? O_o

Funny how a camera based control scheme can be used by Nintendo to claim copying but the Eyetoy can't be used against them.



Nintendo talking a lot fo trash these days.

At least it makes the forums more lively.



iPhone = Great gaming device. Don't agree? Who cares, because you're wrong.

"Oh please Nintendo, I Pad are already doing this stuff with Apple TV, PSP already did remote play, There is already a Vita game that links up with the PS3 for dual screen gaming (UMvC3), everyones done it and got there products to market first Ninty."

one game on the Vita? PSP remote play? you compare that to the awesomness of the WiiU gamepad?

I'm sorry, whatawesomness do you speak of? Cause right now the WiiU tablet just looks like a big PSVita.

mmmm .......wiimote is not camera based motion
Kinect is the eytoy ripoff

Sony is flattered by Nintendo's attempt at remote play, even if it's not very remote.

“With Wii, when we brought out motion controls and introduced that as a new idea in gaming, initially there were people who didn’t understand it. Three years later, our competitors both came out with their own motion control systems,” he said, referring to Xbox Kinect and Playstation Move.

maybe the fact the "copys" came so quickly was the fact that no one is actually copying nintendo but rather in fact trying to cash in after the success of the ipad. apple revolutionized the market -- the wii U is just another in a long line of knock-offs.

Im not saying Nintendos wont be good, in fact it might even be alot better, but they need to get off there high horse a bit.

Sorry but your wrong, Nintendo beat all those companies many many years ago with the Gamecube-Gameboy Advance link cable, making them first to the market with dual screen gaming (and they did it like a decade ago). Look it up, read your history, you'll be a better & more informed person - http://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Nintendo_GameCube%E2%80%93Game_Boy_Advance_link_cable

What he's saying is that Sony (and others) have already successfully done the 2 screen stuff. Wii U isnt the first. Sony have already done this and are still doing it.

Think of Sony's version as the Wii Remote and Nintendo's version as PS Move. Not success-wise, just by what they do.

Again, your completely wrong, look up the gamecube_gameboy advance cable. Nintendo was doing this stuff like a decade ago, way before Sony or anyone else. Look at the bottom of compatible games on this wiki page - http://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Nintendo_GameCube%E2%80%93Game_Boy_Advance_link_cable
