Fifa 13 - Wii U version looks best, gamepad features revealed

EA producer Matt Prior has told Official Nintendo Magazine thatFIFA 13will look at its best on Wii U.

FIFA 13 will be released for Xbox 360 and PS3 in September but in an exclusive interview with ONM, Prior said that EA has been able to improve the visuals for the Wii U version.

"It's on a par with 360 and PS3 and we were even able to make some key graphical improvements," said Prior. "We focused on areas that would have the most impact on the game."

"As revealed in ONM 85, you can tackle, pass, shoot plus take free kicks and penalties using the GamePad's touchscreen while you can also analyse stats, make strategic decisions in real-time and deliver half-time team talks on the new Wii U controller."

Post a summary of the article in your opening post and I was about to post this, but I thought it wasn't SW material.

The passing/tackling/shooting with the touchscreen seems clunky and not needed, however I do like the idea of a manage hub, and being able to adjust tactics in game on the tousch pad. The new free kick and penalty system sounds much better than the previous versions.

Cows this gen - "Well of course the devs are too lazy to utilize the full powah of the PS3, lazy port, 360 holding it back, blah, blah, blah"

Cows going into next gen - "Pfft, fail. WiiU is tapped. Port or no port there is nothing to push on the WiiU."

I love SW irony. Just like when all you guys b*tched and moaned about Nintendo being too far out with their controller only to turn around and b*tch when they offered a carbon copy of your favorite controllers.

I guess its amusing at least.

This certainly doesnt make it worth buying a wiiu if you already own a 360 or ps3. Not even a good idea for those who dont own a 360 or ps3. Pay at least $100 more for a wiiu with minimal graphical improvements, small multiplayer base and have a tiny library to choose from.

Yeah man, those early ports from previous gen consoles certainly dictate all of what is to come.

Only thing i like the sound of the manager hub, the rest just feels like unecessary taked on nonsense a-la voice controls in ME3.

Minimal graphical improvements....doesn't really mean anything.

Moving the goal posts, eh? And banking on assumption at that.

think they improved with 12 and brough the PC version up to speed.

Oh you mean the pre-rendered KZ2 video? Or the "real time" MGS4 video running on a beastly PC? Maybe you were talking about that FFVII tech demo? Or maybe it was that fake ass Warhawk footage? Or was it the footage for Wardevil, a game that never actually existed? Oh no, you must be reffering to all those physics demos that never amounted to sh*t? Maybe it was the killer app Layer you're talking about. Or maybe, could it be, that fake ass footage for FFXIII?

Yeah I remember. If you like being mislead, then cool I guess.

You know what people tend to forget about 2005? Oh the fact that everyone thought PS3 would be another PS2 with full market domination, all the exclusives and all the 3rd party games. The fact that people thought the Wii would be Nintendos end. The fact that people thought the 360 would be a 20, maybe 30 million seller at best, scraping for the scraps when it comes to games.

Amazing how people forget such things, but then turn around and make certain predictions about the future based on a multiplat. Dont you think so?

"make strategic decisions in real-time", Yes, this is what I wanted! However I am a PES player so this FIFA news doesn't interest me, I expect this in PES though.

Teh fanboys are jelly.

Sorry but I think this gamepad is gonna ruin a lot of cool games. It seems developers feel like they have to take advantage of this "gimmick" and I hope future game don't end up sacrificing good chunks of gameplay just to make it work together with the gamepad...

Everything on the Wii U will look better, for two years at least.

Who the hell is going to play FIFA on the Wii U :lol:

I got the first one, but got bored because the goal keeper ai was way too easy to get past. Ruined it for me.

I think the problem of the WiiU will be that it will not be cheaper than the playstation3 and 360. The sucess of the Wii came from the price and the wii sports. Unless I am completely wrong but I think releasing what looks to be a possible "meh" console in terms of visuals, with a higher price point that current competitors + with the expectation of the next 2 big announcements from Sony and Mircrosoft + the begining of things such as Onlive and OUYA, I do not see much sucess for this.

The WiiU has a modern feature set.It's impossible for it to be left behind from the other consoles like the Wii was this time.
