So yesterday at E3 it was announced that Nintendo is throwing their hats in the ring with Xbox and PS3 with their new home console. The Wii U was announced and it looks freaking sweet! They showed the preview video and some of the things you can do with their new controller is phenomenal. I have no idea at this point what kind of price point it will have, they are looking at a 2012 release. It is going to be backward compatible with all things Wii that we know and love right now. It will now however have 1080p high-definition graphics and the new controller has a touch screen built in. It's almost like having a tablet in the middle of your controller. Can't wait. I have no idea if I will pick it up, we'll see about the price. I already have all the Wii -motes, and games.. we'll see. Also will it come with only one of the new controllers? How much is a second?

I've heard that the system will be on par to what the Xbox 360 and PS3 are going for right now. No clue on how much another controller will be though, I assume fairly expensive.
ReplyDeleteYeah the unveil was pretty awesome. I was thinking it would be somewhere similar to the big 2 that are holding the top spots. It will be interesting to see what happens in the next couple months with more info coming out. The Mario DS3D games look awesome too. So it shows that Nintendo is really getting back into the mix. They have the kiddie Wii games, but now they are looking to branch into the hardcore gamer realm and they totally have the technology to do it.
