Oh god... I just thought of all the penis swapnotes I get as is.... o_o the horror...

Imagine.. On the home menu.. Of a family console..

That's where the personal accounts comes in.

I don't think Nintendo gives any f*cks about the "Family Friendly" title, despite what they may say.

there's gonna be way more games than just mario and nintys this time nearly all of the 3rd party devs are on board from the get go this time even ones that weren't interested in the wii. as for underpowered don't expect the ps4/720 whatever they fuck they call it to be 10 times powerfuller and 30x better gfx it's not going to happen this time not on consoles. i can tell you now what the BIG differences are going to be: the other machines will run in 1080p (proper FULL 1080p this time) and run at 60fps there will be no other differences and the wiiu will be exactly the same

Basically saying there will not be a difference is either ignorance or not wanting to discuss it (not trying to start a fight, just stating a fact. Otherwise we could just do with a single console (PC)). There are bound to be differences in one way or the other, just like when people say the PS3 and the 360 are identical although there are tons of differences from the game specs (game media, video quality, etc) to controllers (native controllers + PSMove/Kinect) and online (Free PSN vs Paid XBL). Not to mention the exclusive titles and others.

Just like there are differences between some games released in the PAL vs NTSC regions (well not so much no, but there were in the PS2 era (look at ICO for example)). All those come down to hardware specs and what can be stored in RAM for example.

But on to the actual topic: hopefully E3 is good for the gaming side. I'm kinda bored with the new fad of "innovative gaming controls" which have quite frankly resulted in disappointing games.. From each of the console makers.

Let the E3 challenge begin! (Translated into "Who will get my moneyz first this time around!" )

Considering that's what made them go from last place to first place in one generation, I think they do care. Not like a "we need to rid ourselves of this title" type of a way, but a "we need to keep this title" type of way.

inb4 "nintendo sux cuz it copies 360"

Ehh, that is good thing. The 360 controller has won several awards and praise for it's design. It's THE perfect controller. I wouldn't mind playing on a similar controller for the Wii U.

Except the Xbox version of the d-pad sucks. To be honest, I've never been too fond of the Xbox controller, I've always played with a playstation controller, so an xbox controller never really felt right to me.

tl'dr

what you think the next gens are gonna be equipped with an 8 core cpu with a gtx 690??! i've got news for you gfx have reached their limits right now so don't expect games to look that much better than they are right now next gen.

Oh, it was not fixed, that thing is still a PoS Dpad.

Sorry I live in the 21st century, I can't remember a game I would actually want to use a D-Pad on.

2D platformers can suck my balls, analog sticks are great.

Super Meat Boy.
Good luck.

We'll be facing bears twice. One at E3 and the other at the software showcase.

I just hope King Kong doesn't get involved.

It's going to be around S$500 here, thanks to shitty Maxsoft (MX also operates in the whole of SEA)

I sure hope Nintendo opens up a branch here and chases that Maxsoft out.

Now where did I say that? If you're going to respond, read the reply first.. I said that there are multiple ways to make games look better and quite a few of them don't have anything to do with CPU and Graphics chips. I could be just like you and say "What, you think that the next gen consoles are gonna be equipped only with the same hardware??! ". If it's possible to make games look different with the exact same hardware due to video output, it's possible to make games look different with different hardware. How different, that's a matter of opinion. Refusing to say that there will be differences is just plain ignorance and you know it.

Well you seem like an expert on technology in the field so I'll definitely believe this.

Thanks for the information.

Im quietly looking forward to the wiiu i like what i see , just a little curious how multiplayer will go , will we have to shell out mega bux for addition wiiu gamepads as well as pro controllers ? bit confused on this... i cant imaging playing with the family , with four of them touchyscreen thingies piled up on the side , or is one of those for player 1 and three wii controllers dusted down for the rest?
