Hardware The info on the Wii U

[Deleted_171835]

In case you didn't catch the Japanese stream, the Internet browser has
- Tabbed browsing
- Video codecs from browser (you can now play videos straight from the browser including YouTube)
- Mainly controlled by GamePad. What you see on the TV is undisturbed and just the webpage
- Surf independently on GamePad
- Google Maps support
- Play video on TV, but continue surfing the web on GamePad when YouTube is active.

Sorry if this has been posted.

I think we know what some of that 1GB is going to be used for. Possibly the best internet browser on a console so far.

I'm pretty sure they confirmed multitasking with the browser too. Used it on the 3DS a lot for walkthroughs so having it here with a better browser is much welcomed.

Well it's about freakin' time they had a decent web browser.

Were you seriously expecting that, especially right after we got NSMB2 and NSMBU? They would've announced it long ago if a 3D Mario game was coming that soon.

I wasn't expecting that.
I just like SMG > NSMB.

I was going to buy the WiiU on launch ... but I might just hold off for now.
TVii looks like it could be interesting.

No argument there. Though I really hope that the next 3D Mario features simultaneous 2-player mode, like this mode for Galaxy 2. It's just amazing.
