Wii U

I admit, I was among those who let out a bit of a chuckle when I heard the name of Nintendo’s next home console. I mean, come on. “Wii U”? It has less flow than the hoover dam when it has no water in it. Or anything else that has no water, I guess. But that’s beside the point. I wasn’t going to pass judgement on an entire console simple because the name sounded like an ambulance passing by, or a cowboy who just wrangled a large stallion. I wanted to play it first, and so I waited in line for three hours, moved to another line, and then waited in line for another hour before the Nintendo representative opened the gate and I headed into the designated area to get my hands on what could be called the most revolutionary gaming device since the 3DS.

I believe this trailer was shown exclusively at the Ubisoft roundtable on Wednesday night. It’s now available for your viewing pleasure!


We posted this video earlier, but it had the last few seconds of footage cut off. It was actually right as Miyamoto was mentioning Pikmin Wii U.



According to Yosuke Hayashi, head of Team Ninja, the DS control scheme found in Ninja Gaiden: Dragon Sword will be brought over to Ninja Gaiden 3: Razor’s Edge for Wii U. However, the development team is also implementing traditional button and analog stick-based controls as well.

“It was almost like fate that we’re making making Ninja Gaiden 3 and then we have the option to bring in Dragon Sword controls, that kind of gameplay, to a high spec console version. We feel we’ll be able to give players a new kind of gameplay, a new feel with the new controller.”

This information comes from Square producer Yoshinori Kitase…

“Three or four years ago we joked around about developing a Final Fantasy game on the Wii Fit balance board. But after seeing Wii U revealed at Nintendo’s conference, we are now considering the possibilities of bringing the Final Fantasy series to the format.”

I’m sure we’ll get a Final Fantasy on Wii U at some point. Only question is, what type of game will it be? A mainline entry, a Crystal Chronicles title, or something entirely different?
