Sounds more reasonable than anything else I've heard. Why not *signs also*

Agreed, seems pretty likely

But... but my brain wants so much more.

by **Leon2457** » 23 Jan 2013 09:58

I'm gonna say Wii U VC, and more info on already announced games.

Lets hope I'm right in some aspect, but wrong in others.

I'll add some videos from some announced games like Bayonetta 2!

So there!

EDIT: Streaming directly to my new HD TV via the Wii U...Love it

35 minutes...hmmmm...

I'm expecting more from this rather than some obvious prediction. -_-

No english version or subtitles?

VC MiiVerse! Nice. =D

having to pay for VC games I already own to play them on a new system? what a fucking joke.

by **Chosenoneknuckles** » 23 Jan 2013 10:11

No mention of a Hardlock fix. Really...? That's the BIGGEST problem [I have no speed issues, personally] >->

Can't believe they're actually charging for Wii U versions of games you own too. They should be free.

by **SparkyMuffin** » 23 Jan 2013 10:12

Ahh... so a reduced price? Well, it's not a free update... but at least we don't have to buy the whole thing again!

Yepp... Different coding for the U...I knew they couldn't just throw it in like that...

Pikmin cam... Nice touch!

by **Chosenoneknuckles** » 23 Jan 2013 10:14

Community creation? Sweet.

Mario Kart U is gonna be awesome!

all they have to do is change the wiiu OS to run wii stuff. and not have it boot in to wii mode. which is pretty doable.

by **StudMuffin** » 23 Jan 2013 10:15

Closed communities is a pretty cool idea, hope that it goes beyond Wii Fit U.

Then no GamePad use for them it seems... Should still be free though.

Agreed.

Though I wouldn't have minded if they let me at least pay with Club Nintendo coins. ):

@StudMuffin
Thanks, but I'm trying to watch it on my iPhone, and for some reason, I can't find the NA version on the UStream app and can't get any of the videos embedded on this page to play.

by **shadowbuster** » 23 Jan 2013 10:21

So far... yawn

Ah, sorry man.

by **gamblor** » 23 Jan 2013 10:23

The greatly reduced prices of $1-1.50 was the best I expected and is reasonable. Obviously there's some development cost of updating the games to work on Wii U that they have to pay for.

by **DonnyDarko420** » 23 Jan 2013 10:23

@StudMuffin
No problem at all. Thanks for the help either way!
