Team Ninja boss Yosuke Hayashi believes the Wii U’s power is “right up there with PS3 and Xbox 360”. It also has the capability of running content on a second screen.

Ultimately, though, Hayashi thinks that creatively making games will be more important than anything else:

“In terms of power, it’s right up there with PS3 and Xbox 360 plus the power to run the extra screen on the controller. There is plenty of power there to use. For all of Nintendo’s hardware, it’s not about power; it’s about how you creatively use the hardware. When we make games for Nintendo, they are going to come and challenge us to use that hardware to make a creative game. That’s the key point from Nintendo that we always feel.”

Regarding Ninja Gaiden 3: Razor’s Edge – one of Team Ninja’s first Wii U titles – Hayashi said the team wanted to make things more convenient:

“Ninja Gaiden is a console game, so we’re focused on playing it as a console game. We haven’t done a whole lot to change that because we know our fans who love that experience, and we don’t want to betray them. We don’t want to leave them out in the cold. It’s been focused on making that experience even more convenient for them.”

Paper Mario: Sticker Star Takes Collecting Stickers to a Whole New Level of Fun

REDMOND, Wash.–(BUSINESS WIRE)– The newest installment of the Paper Mario franchise flattens the mustached hero into a two dimensional, paper-thin character and nothing could be more fun. Paper Mario: Sticker Star for the portable Nintendo 3DS introduces a new way for players to solve puzzles and execute attacks using stickers, which are found throughout the game. The colorful game world looks like a shoebox diorama, and takes on a sense of depth in full 3D, without the need for special glasses.

“The Paper Mario series is known for its inventive battles and quirky humor,” said Scott Moffitt, Nintendo of America’s executive vice president of Sales & Marketing. “The 3D graphics and the introduction of stickers add a fresh new element that will have players glued to their games.”

More summarization of the big ol’ Scott Moffitt article from earlier, this time about Nintendo’s overall strategy for the holidays.

Moffitt says that Wii U is NOT Nintendo’s number one priority for the holiday shopping season. The 3DS and 3DS XL are.

“We’re seeing an ever-growing momentum in our handheld business,” he said, “19 months in, we’re still a million units ahead of the pace of DS at this point in its life. As you know, DS was the best-selling gaming system of all time, and so we’re pleased with that.”

That really makes you wonder: Are people just over-exaggerating the trouble that dedicated gaming devices are in? If the 3DS is still a million units ahead of the DS, and the DS had had TWO holiday seasons by this time… it’s really tough to believe that iDevices are killing the handheld gaming market!

Everyone has their own opinion on the Wii U’s price. I don’t think anyone would say it’s too lower, but there are some who would prefer the console to be priced lower.

Ubisoft CEO Yves Guillemot is in the camp that would have liked a lower price for Wii U.

He said:

“I always prefer lower pricing, so I can’t say I’m happy. I’m never happy when the machines are expensive. What we have to do there is remember that compared to an iPad, it’s cheap. With what it brings [to the gaming table] it’s cheap. But I hope they’ll be able to drop their price in time.”

What do you think about the Wii U price? Too high? Just right?
