I've actually never put any mind into this.

So with thems wi-fi, I can game form my toilet. Nice.

Just don't sit too long on the pot.  You legs will fall asleep and then you will have to lean against a wall for a few mins.

Oh ya, that happens all the time.  

I don't imagine that with the WiiU pad will be so heavy as to put a lot of pressure on your legs, though. I dunno, maybe It'll be my arms making me legs go to sleep, I guess. 

I gotta test it out with a Gameboy.

My legs go to sleep usually just from the position of sitting on the toliet.  If I stay there for over 20-30 mins my legs fall asleep.  I had a rough time when I was playing Advance Wars: Days of Ruin on the toliet.  Price you gotta pay to be entertained while on the toliet I suppose.

I see. As long as I'm not resting anything on my legs I'm good.

Now I see that it isn't an official image. It's all speculation based on something not provided by Nintendo...

Superchunk, you should have said that it's made by a fan.


I specifically stated I didn't know the source but it was posted in a GAF forum. When did I state it was "official" or from "Nintendo". I only provided it as GAF tends to have a lot of solid info and everything in it adds up perfectly. however, YMMV.

I suggest for future referencing, we ensure our news posts/information be appropriately noted as "official" (having come from a Nintendo employee or Golin Harris) or "GAF speculation" (even if deductive reasoning sounds 100% plausible).

That extra moment of typing may limit the number of confused posts.

I agree with you and that's why I did state before the picture that I didn't know its source. However, I will add "NOT OFFICIAL" just in case.

Can't wait till the Gamepad hacking begins.

Someone will find a way to pair it with a PC, and then stream things to it. Imagine somehow someone develops a stream enabled OS just for the Gamepad and you could use it as a regular tablet, with apps and stuff,

I know the hacking community will embrace Nintendo once again, there are countless wiimote hacks out there,

WiiU will already have lots of app support and I'm still hoping for Android.

I noted it but others may not have been as readily observent.

 

TBH, I cannot find fault with VGC specifically as this kind of minunderstanding is found across all reaches of the Inernet.  But a quality labelling system can help greatly.
