A real long Q&A session:

but my favorite is this one:

Q: Will the Wii U and its capabilities last you through the next console generation?

A: We think so. It's based on having great graphics, it's based on having a robust online execution. We believe that this system is going to have a very long life, and it's going to be very well supported by third-party publishers.

Big words Reggie, but you've got to prove it!

I'm skeptical. I do think they will have a very good first 2 years, but long term I think they're going to have some problems, especially if MS/Sony copy or do something similar with screen controllers/tablet support.

The N64, GCN, and Wii all had decent first 2-3 years on the market, but really had some poor showings those last two years as third parties tend to bail out as time goes on.

i believe in you Reggie

Alright, lets see the games then.

Can't wait.

I'll give it six years.

I already posted this thread poacher /:|

true : D soz dindt see it before

When the Xbox 720 and Ps4 have some games that the wiiu don't Nintendo will just need exclusives of the same quality.

Nintendo always has their IP's down packed. The question is the third party support. But from the looks of it, it definitely is no console to laugh at or take "casually."
