The skyward sword controls are a joy, i would love to see the next zelda use them, the controls are perfect for shooters too.

I guess we know where we stand by the time next week one way or the other.Last edited by originalbadboy; 29-05-2012, 12:33.

There's definitely a fair chance the WiiU won't appeal to many like the Wii didn't. Nintendo also have a strong history of not getting it right with 3rd parties so they might have not learnt their lessons but the flip side is the 3DS shows they can turn public perception around quick if they have the drive to. Either way, their coffers are deep and public perception is strong so even if the Wii has a bad E3, they'll turn a profit with it and be around for the following generation and likely the one after that too.

Originally posted by originalbadboy View PostIts also sad to see that the WiiU won't enhance Wii games graphically either, that's something Ninty could have implemented easily enough. I suspect they are not doing it so they can release 'HD' versions of SMG etc. And in honesty if they are priced right I would probably take them up on that offer.
They could probably have made is so that the WiiU can operate at full spec mode when playing Wii games, allowing for potential rendering in higher resolution, but the impact that could have on compatibility could be high (especially with games that rely on the clock speed for timing). They could also have implemented upscaling, but that obviously wouldn't actually be rendering in a higher resolution (it is a small irk of mine when I read articles on gaming sites where the writer clearly does not actually know what upscaling is).

Regarding Unreal 4 - i can understand why Nintendo has perhaps said no - or not jumped at it straight away. It is costly - very - and currently untested, no one actually is aware of the reality of it, and it is a lot to gamble because there are equally as good engines out there - or soon to be out there, believe it or not. Although on the surface its worrying, it's not actually the end of the world as people may fear.
Wii Us specs are important however, not for OMG POLYS!!! but rather for optimization. Next gen consoles wont have loading times - or at least they shouldnt. If WillU cant keep up with 'simple' details like that it will suffer.
..If it can, than the artistry will be first and foremost and Nintendo will own. To be honest, Galaxy to me looks nicer than pretty much all 360 titles ive played
