Wii U

Every Miiverse post to be moderated by Nintendo.

Messages posted to Miiverse, Nintendo's suite of Wii U social functions, could face a delay of around 30 minutes to appear.

This is because the social networking service will be actively moderated by Nintendo-employed "human resources" personnel.

Each message posted to Miiverse, displayed on the Wii U desktop and in specific areas in Wii U software, will need to be read and verified before it becomes visible.

Nintendo boss Satoru Iwata said he thought a delay of half an hour when posting messages was fine.

"The attraction of a social network is the immediacy of the feedback," Iwata explained to LA Times. But Nintendo needed to balance that with the need to make the service child-friendly, he continued.

"Personally, I think 30 minutes [delay] should be acceptable."

they could put age restriction on that service instead of that if they're so worried about THE KIDS!

This is a joke right??? Nintendo really hasn't got the hang of this new fangled online thing yet has it..

Has Nintendo at least moved past all that Friend Code bullshit yet?

When the Nintendo conference finished, this was trending on Twitter.



Guess what game isn't coming to Wii U or 3DS?

Does anybody care?

That was trending because there's an "Animal Crossing Lite" game in Nintendo Land for Wii U

Really strong buzz around "Project P-100" in the wake of E3. One of the Eurogamer staff cited it as his favourite game from the whole show!

Sold. Wii U for me then

New Super Smash Bros. confirmed to be in development. Super Team being headed up by series creator Masahiro Sakurai. His last game was Kid Icarus: Uprising, which is still my GOTY at this point.

Though I'm taking a punt on this being a Wii U game. It could well be 3DS. Or both. I say both because there were rumours a while back about cross platform features.

So Eurogamer has more info of on the actual specs of the Wii U:
http://www.eurogamer.net/articles/2012- ... i-u-really

Basically 1GB RAM and decent DX10 Level GPU
IBM 3 core Power PC CPU (very similar to the 360's current CPU)

So Graphically it should just out do the PS3 and 360, running most stuff in native 1080p and with all that RAM and more modern GPU it'll be silky smooth running 360/PS3 ports, so the Wii U should have a year of having the best looking games.

The downside is obviously when the next Playstation and Xbox arrive it'll be way behind again.

So pretty much what everyone was expecting.

Not bad, around what I expected. Not getting one at launch though.

I'm getting one at launch, Bayonetta 2 and Monster Hunter using Transfarring with 3DS. I'm sold

[Born2beSlicker]

This is the UK launch line up (so far).

New Super Mario Bros. U
Nintendo Land
Mass Effect 3 Special Edition
FIFA 13
Rayman Legends
ZombiU.
Trine 2 Director's Cut
Nano Assault Neo
Toki Tori 2

Bayonetta 2 was a fantastic move along with assuring that Black Ops 2 will be the full proper game and not some watered down shit. I'm still not sold, but Bayonetta 2 and ZombiU makes me interested.
