Nope.

It's in the makings but no info or teasers shown yet.

So far nothing on the Wii U has hyped me to get it thus far.

Everything just feels too late. The Nintendo Tvii thing looks cool but quite frankly people are already comfortable with their Xbox's/PS3's/Phones right now for those features.

The games themselves looked mixed up. Some of those Activision games look like straight up Gamecube games while for example BLOPS 2 looks like BLOPS 2 on PS3/360. No need to go out and buy a WiiU for that.

I'm disappointed and will not be buying a WiiU at launch.

Plus Halo 4 will be out and PASBR comes out two days later. :russ: They really think I'm gonna spend $400 to play New Old New Super Mario World/Bros in HD??

PFFT.

shyt im trying to flip this shyt :birdman:

It's some feature that's free of charge unlike XBL :mjpls: that gives you access to TV, movies and sports all through the gamepad. You can watch sports, comment on them, see plays and keep track of scores on the screen while you watch the game on the TV.

Other apps included Hulu, Amazon, Tivo for DVR, HBO, ESPN etc.

All this is for free. Now if all this is for free I really want to hear these pro XBL gold members spin this. If ESPN, HBO is free to access to on this(barring subscription of course) then XBL GOLD gonna have to change their tune. I know people will say why would they buy a new system anyway?? I'm just speaking from a value standpoint.

Wait, so the Wii works with your cable tv provider or something to deliver this programming?

is the zomibie game dropping with this on launch date ?

I don't think an official date has been announced yet, Nintendo just has a list of games coming during the launch window but it wouldn't surprise me if it dropped on release date.
The Full Wii U Launch Window Release List - IGN

Price seems okay to me, obviously the pro that comes with Nintendoland would be the one to get. I don't see any reason for me to pick it up right out of the gate as I am still feasting on a backlog of PS3 games right now, that will flow over to next year.

I think the problem some people have is this is releasing years later but not exceeding at least what's out now graphically.

The price is fair since a PS3/360 costs about the same and the WiiU looks to be on par with those systems so it's like an updated Wii package. I wouldn't quite call it next gen.

I'm sure a New Super Mario 3d game and Zelda is going to look :ooh: since SMG looked amazing for just a Wii title.

Yea the price is very fair...especially wit the mini-tablet controller that comes with it. That thing alone is probably $100+.

The Nintendo Wii U may only have 8 to 32GB of internal memory, but the company's taking a decidedly open approach to expanding that memory: add your own. "You can plug in a full-on three terabyte hard drive if you want. I'll love you as a digital consumer," Nintendo America CEO and president Reggie Fils-Aime told us during a post-press conference investor Q&A.

I'll cop once the inevitable price drop comes. I paid $250+ for my Wii when it first came out and in hindsight, I really should have waited or just not have bought it period. My PSP and DS got more love than my Wii.
