FOR FUCKS SAKE GIVE IT A CHANCE
Don't decide it sucks 1 hour after you saw it first. Don't be so narrow minded. FFS

You can use it like a motion gaming console or what you actually want; a HD FPS/third party console with hardcore games
It's insane that Nintendo seems to finally create a console that combines both worlds; Wii owners really wanted FPS's and good third party hardcore games and Xbox 360/PS3 owners wanted good ol' Nintendo titles like Mario, Zelda, SSB and Metroid.
The seemingly kiddy console Wii U fixes this problem. A full-fledged CoD (or even better Battlefield 3) and Mario and Zelda games on ONE console. THINK ABOUT IT FOR ONE SECOND

Surely the description was news xD

Anyway I feel that it all seems a bit gimmicky, and that controller looks annoying as hell

I think Nintendo has just rejoined the console wars. The Wii U has a lot of potential.

MY TWO CENTS:

right now its a pass for me, unless they get real third party support and a decent online network. The controller won't sell me on this one.

 

[Bladexdsl]

told u that you would be able to use the controller as a tv

Lmao, have to hold like L from death note xD

The hardcore games look interesting though

They didn't even announce the console. Also not a single new title announced for the Wii1. Wii1 graphics on all 1st party WiiU games. What were they thinking?

I like the new controller. Really want to try it out and I could see potential in what developers do. Like in racing games I could see all the tachometer and lap times display on the controller etc.

 

[DeadLocked]

I didn't even get that it was a new console I thought it was a controller for the wii.
Doubt I will be getting now... The controller alone looks like it will cost £99+ and I don't get the appeal. You can have a HUD on your controller now (no one looks at the controller while playing a game).
And it's a handheld thats tethered to your console? Needs a FAQ asap.

 

[Bladexdsl]

that thing is fugly huge
