I was abit unsure with the controller. But then they showed off the third party games. And Ohh my god, Aliens Colonial Marines on Wii! Tekken! Batman Arkham City, Assasin creed. And Smash Bros on it! (But no gameplay or trailer for that one)

Now this is a Nintendo Console i've been waiting for. HD visuals good third party support + Nintendo First party games = AWESOME!!!!!

Teah I must say I'm pretty much in the same boat as you, I'm sure the controller will grow on me and I'm looking forward to see what devs do with this. That tech demo with the bird looked really good.

Yeah I can't wait... We skipped the Wii, and only had a gamecube for a little while.. So we have a lot of back catelog to play when we get a WiiU.. (of course some games I will still prefer to play on my pc, but man They have already announced a lot of very intriguing games 3rd party and all)

Making me feel almost the way I did back when the Nintendo 64 came out! I remember being really excited!

I was confused, didn't like the look of it, but I like the idea of it. I'm quite excited for this.

The fact that they didn't have 1 single screen or trailer from a legit game bothers me. SSB shouldn't even count as they just mention that they had plans of making it

No, they released very little info on the actual console during the press conference.. The controller is actually a controller, Even the audio and video is streamed to the controller wirelessly from the actual console. (without Latency issues)

It's like Nintendo has finally caught up to Microsoft and Sony in the graphics and software department and now everyone is so amped up, LOL, good stuff.

im excited,the weight of the controller should be around current 360 one which is fine by me.Size ,well a bit large but i need to test it myself regarding comfort. However it appears kinda the size of my portable nintendos so if thats it, im comfy with that. On features, yeah , i mean , I got a wii JUST for brawl so you can imagine how i feel now about wii u(seriously change the name plz).

im not all that happy with it yet. i need to see the system specs. if the graphics are only as good as the 360 and ps3, then it'll be completely left in the dust during the next generation with ps4 and the like. this would once again leave the hardcores hanging with the wii u

the specs need to be beastly so it can play current gen games at 1080p making them the definitive versions and still be able to play ps4 xbox3 level games without much graphical reduction

Yea thats it. Im surprised since they announced a new console, they would have it that small and focus just on the controller. I know the controller was the main attraction but still you need the console for the controller to work, so why not show more of the console! lol

well ,think about it, it was never needed. Nintendo still hasnt been caught by their competition in total sales WITHOUT HD AND THEIR games. Just nintendo games made the system sold like crazy. And now they got the less meaningful(saleswise) things from the competition as well.Works for them.
