Default Re: The Wii U

Tongue-in-cheek:

That's a very xbox looking remote. I'm sure Nintendo has a plethora of lists on how their controller differs from the Xbox controller, and how it is superior in every way because its thumb sticks are 2cm higher.

Listening to/Reading Nintendo explain all of its new tech and the reasons behind it is like watching someone milk a never-dying comedy-cow year after year.

"Stop using clunky two-handed controllers! Grab a wiimote and nunchuck! The future of gaming!"
"Put down your wiimote and nunchuck, and pick up the new black Nintendo pro-controller, sleekly designed to get away from pesky motion controls, and annoying gimmicky controllers for prolonged gaming!"
Nintendo: Shattering barriers they have created since 1996.


They should bring back the Virtual Boy, damnit. It's been long enough since they tried to legitimately "do something unique".
There is nothing really unique about a tablet-console that uses xbox controllers, and sounds to have an online component much like PS, and some of the apparent abilities of 'The Cloud'. Unique all the way!.

Yeah, because a system aimed at children with a camera on the remote streaming live video/pictures online definitely won't be taken advantage of quickly by creepy people.

Wasn't that one of the main things against video-phones in the 80's and 90's? "People will expose themselves to our children."
