This game was released in Japan quite some time ago, but it’s finally coming to North America.
All of this information comes from Reggie Fils-Aime…
– Reggie: “High-def graphics, got it. Online capabilities, got it.
– Again, online news coming soon
– Single-touch controller
– Wii wasn’t unsuccessful with the hardcore
– 1080p
– No price talk yet
– Console will be driven by the games
– Zelda Wii U was an experience, Reggie doesn’t like the term tech-demo
– Reggie says Nintendo is good at keeping secrets
– [Hitting 45 million sales before announcing WiiU] was just a nice, figurative conversation. (The Wii has not yet sold 48m, yet WiiU has been announced).
– Competitive price point
– Will have a fantastic value
– You’ll be able to play those Wii games, but with a new experience.
– Geoff: You’re gonna have some big launch first-party games? (Reggie doesn’t answer)
– [About the console]: We’re not emphasising the console. It’s a box. We’re focusing on the controller.
– Doesn’t support Blu-ray
