Wii U launches November 18th

[Angrist]

Things Nintendo need to sort out for the Wii U launch:
- VC playable on the Upad
- new VC games and fast... bring those GameCube classics over
- upscaling GameCube/Wii games to HD graphics
- make all games/apps from last year's E3 available (remember the drawing and board game?)
- TVii right out the box
- Nintendo's own TV shows available on TVii, preferably free (laugh at how bad Zelda was, watch the F-Zero anime, relive your childhood with the Super Mario Super Show...)
- Online multiplayer like it's normal
- Video chat as promised

More?

It's way too close to launch for them to do any hardware changes. Probably software as well, though things could be patched in later.

Have they announced how, or if, VC purchases on the Wii can be moved over to the Wii U?

VC Playable on the uPad and Wii Games fall into the same boat
Nintendo rather replicate the tech than try and mess with it and not guarantee 100% backwards comp
Also GameCube isn't supported so not sure how it would upscale those games
I believe already announced TVii was missing launch, which is why I don't understand them highlighting it over online
The rest are pretty solid!

Virtual Console/WiiWare titles (And saves) can be transferred from the Wii to the Wii U.. haven't announced HOW, but did announce that you would physically need both your Wii and your Wii U to do so like the DS to 3DS transfer

Also figured share the 3 games most excited for in no real order


The game has everything I want. A Saturday morning look and feel, lots of over the top action. And nice vibrant worlds.


Pretty much same idea as above. Nice, cheesy over the top B-movie feel. An open world game that doesn't take itself seriously (Why I love the Saints Row games)


Probably in the extreme minority with this
But this game just looks like a ton of fun
I love collections like this because still have friends who enjoy playing it with me!
