Two Tribes predicts November launch for Wii U
Posted on 12 years ago by Brian(@NE_Brian) in News, Wii U | 0 comments
Nintendo hasn’t given Wii U a final release date, but Two Tribes has made its own prediction. The Toki Tori 2 developer said the console will “probably” [sic] launch in November.
Thus far, Nintendo has only confirmed that the Wii U will be released Holiday 2012. A November ship date would make sense so that the publisher could take advantage of Black Friday sales and pre-Christmas shopping.

Reggie on Wii U power, insider compares performance to next iPad, lots more
Posted on 12 years ago by Brian(@NE_Brian) in News, Wii, Wii U | 0 comments
Reggie Fils-Aime has opened up on the Wii U’s power… slightly. The Nintendo of America president commented on the console in an interview with Kotaku, which comes as part of a larger article about the hardware overall.
Reggie first pointed out the faults with the Wii, including the lack of HD support and limited online functionality. He noted that these issues have been fixed with its successor.
“…as third-party publishers make their decisions somehow they’re going to view competitive systems more favorably than the Wii U. What I would tell you is that, fundamentally, the reason certain games didn’t make it to the Wii was because, first, the developer or publisher had invested in art at an HD level. For them to rework that art to an SD level was a cost they were unwilling to accept. Second, that the online capabilities especially for in-game purchase, or things of that nature, [were things] they viewed it as a key part of their business model, which the Wii didn’t support. Looking to the future, both of those issues have been solved with the Wii U.”
