Nintendo News №7.
1. Пачтер заявил, что "Wii оказался большим мыльным пузырём" и чтобы Wii U продалась, Нинтендо нужно установить ценник в 249 долларов. И вполне всерьёз заявил, что кинект для ящика лучше (несмотря на отсутствие игр, разве что). Диванная аналитика во всей красе. Впрочем, он всегда был ненавистником Нинтендо:
“I think Nintendo is in disarray. I think they’ve completely blown the Wii U by not telling people what the price is going to be. It’s going to launch at $249 because it has to. I think they’re dead anyway because Xbox with Kinect will be priced below that by the time they launch. Wii was a bubble and that the Wii bubble has burst. Nintendo Wii fans are now playing Farmville. The Wii was a bubble. The Wii bubble has burst.” - Wedbush analyst Michael Pachter

2. Сверхсекретные анонимные источники из какого-то малоизвестного портала клятвенно бьют себя в грудь и говорят, что Wii U по мощности "приблизится к PS360, но не превзойдёт их". И это при том, что уже известные компоненты консоли совершеннее железа нынешних HD-консолей и ЕА собралась сделать лучшую версию BF3 именно там.
Some people have been holding out hope that Nintendo is going to unveil the final version of the Wii U and it's going to blow everyone away with its graphics capabilities. That scenario, however, is looking more and more unlikely all the time. While multiple developers are on record saying that the Wii U's hardware is in a state of flux, unofficial sources continue to place its power comparable to the Xbox 360/PS3, not above them.

3. Gearbox рассуждает о Wii U. Студия надеется на ещё более мощное железо, чем девкиты имеют сейчас, и уверены, что Нинтендо удовлетворит их желания. А также немного восторга от контроллера.
“The controller of the Wii U is obviously where there is new opportunity for innovation in interactivity. Meanwhile, our hope at Gearbox is that the final specification for the hardware is much more powerful than the current competitive consoles so that studios like ours can bring a better standard of high definition image not only to television, but to the controller’s screen at the same time. We’ve been developing a number of interesting features using the unique capabilities of the controller and the hardware. We’ll talk about these details in due time as the work is still very much an R&D project and things may change. Clever people that are familiar with the brand can imagine some of the more obvious, interesting things we can do.” - Gearbox Software President Randy Pitchford
“Out of respect for our friends and partners at Nintendo, I think specific technical details regarding the hardware should come from them. We’ve been intrigued by what we’ve seen so far and are encouraging Nintendo to go as aggressively as they can afford with the performance specifications. We imagine that performance s pecifications are within affordable reach that would provide undeniable performance advantages over competitive platforms. Nintendo have a lot more experience than we do in managing the balance between performance and cost with their hardware, of course, so I do not want to be presumptuous.
I think Nintendo’s biggest opportunity with this console, though, lies in having third-party game makers that can turn out to reliably be as successful or more successful making games for their system as they can be through making games for Sony or Microsoft’s hardware. I think Nintendo can do something to encourage that, but it requires them using their resources to promote the third-party games as strongly as they promote their own. I imagine that would be a cultural challenge, but if they can achieve that they can have the power of the entire creative industry on their team.”
4. Две новости поступило и от Team Meat, создателей Super Meat Boy.
- Они очень хотят сделать новую игру для Wii U.
- Лимит веса каждой загружаемой единицы контента, загружаемого в 3DS Store, составляет 2 гигабайта. Это позволит сделать для портативной консоли вообще что угодно. Хоть нового Алана Вейка.
“[WiiWare's] 40MB is horrible, but [3DS's] 2GB is reasonable. Super Meat Boy would have been on WiiWare if we could have had just a few more megabytes of space – you can only compress stuff so much before you have to start cutting out huge parts of your game. Unfortunately, at that point, it just isn’t worth the time.”
“If we can in the future, we’d like our next game to be on Wii U as well as everything else.”
