In a follow-up, Nintendo Japan has posted on Twitter that there's a price to pay if two Gamepads are active. Frame rates drop to about 30 fps if two are active; any games that really want that extra controller won't be quite as glass-smooth. On the upside, it's possible to switch one off with a smooth transition; there won't be a need for theatrics just to switch to a solo game.

im not as impressed with ZombieU seeing it live now.

I'm not convinced the third party support will be there.

It wouldn't surprise me if this ends up being like the Wii. Third parties are there at the start and dip to the other consoles later on. I'm probably going to buy the Wii U for exclusives later on next gen.

Well, this is almost certain, considering how underpowered the Wii-U is ultimately going to be in comparison to the nextbox/ps4.

Still, I at least expected their to be more support for the first year.

It's possible that some are withholding ports so not to get lost in the launch madness.

Zombie Wii-U was just on spike tv and it looked pretty cool.

I don't understand something about these company's mentality going into E3.

If they know the tech heads and nerds are going to be the ones watching this shyt, and not women and 10 year olds, why do they focus so much of their time on that stuff? This isn't just Nintendo, all the companies have started doing this lately.

I don't think any house moms and grandparents who are the prime consumer for the stuff they show are sitting in front of their laptops streaming E3.

Because tech heads have already bought the consoles they want. Tech heads have already read the leaks about the new games a week or 2 before E3. They want the new customers that may be moving on from the Wii.

Sony could have shown nothing but Wonderbook their entire conference but all of us would have still known about the new God of War, The Last of Us, and Sony Smash Brothers. They show that Wonderbook shyt and it gets put on CNN, in USA Today, and other mainstream outlets and their target audience sees it then.

The "Steambox" is the true hope for gamers, that is if it comes out for under $400.


Valve is literally giving away high quality games on Steam.
