It'll totally do 360And then... You switch over the screen in "controller mode" and you have uber-powerful emulation of EVERY SYSTEM OUT THERE in your hand.Yeah definitely. God this thing would be golden if it's hacked, I mean hackers could get the 1GB for gaming and 1GB for the OS combine them for "hot tits" emulation.Just as the Wii was capable of DVD playback when hacking in the remaining files (as the discs were DVDs) the WiiU will most certainly be capable of BR playback when hacked.
Super-awesome emulation in bed, HERE I COME.
THIS THING IS GONNA BE SO AWESOME.
Fuck you Guild I wanted bitching from you.
Fucking can't rely on any cunt here.
False info, Wii optical discs are no dvd's.Just as the Wii was capable of DVD playback when hacking in the remaining files (as the discs were DVDs) the WiiU will most certainly be capable of BR playback when hacked.Wii U does not have DVD or Blu-ray playback capabilities. The reason for that is that we feel that enough people already have devices that are capable of playing DVDs and Blu-ray, such that it didn't warrant the cost involved to build that functionality into the Wii U console because of the patents related to those technologies.

Though yeah I'm still unsure why they mentioned Blu-Ray in the speeds...why not just mention the speed only? I guess what he meant was just BR/DVD video discs.
It's just Nintendo being a cheapskates on licenses.
They need to market their drives as something different from DVD/BR for the essential reason that if you market them as DVD or BR then you also need to pay the licenses.

The wii system was on some moment capable of dvd playback, but the disc were never rebranded dvd's.
They are also nintendo's propritary wii optical disc, and are differ in capacity also.
wii disc, 4.37 Gb - DVD 4.7Gb. single layer.
They not official, just Amazon putting speculative prices out there. I think the 3rd party games about right though.http://www.amazon.co...-keywords=wii+u do you see the prices listed for some of these wii u games .... they better include a reach around
Yeah, as chartube said, I meant physically.False info, Wii optical discs are no dvd's.Just as the Wii was capable of DVD playback when hacking in the remaining files (as the discs were DVDs) the WiiU will most certainly be capable of BR playback when hacked.Wii U does not have DVD or Blu-ray playback capabilities.

Do some research. psychically the disc are DVDs but they are programmed in a different way to avoid royalty fees. The same for the DVDs on the PS2 actually that feature sony's compression tech. Kingdom Hearts 1&2 are such games. Unlike Nintendo, Sony never openly denied they were using DVDs however.
Thus the reason for no more than one wii u gamepad, that people complained about.Smart move going to Blueray very nice though they seriously need to reconsider the price of that tablet controller, according to google that 13,000 yen is 173$ in US dollars for another tablet controller, bull, no ones gonna want to pay almost that same price for the controller as the system!
Yep. ZombieU, Pikmin 3, Project-1000, Rayman Legends & NSMBU all look fantastic.Will anyone actually buy this? I'm not being sarcastic, are any of you planning on it?
