Wii U Hardware 7

Yesterday, we saw high-resolution photos of the Wii U’s final hardware, and now there’s a video you can check out after the break.

    that video was boring. i have nothing against the wii u though.

    Why can’t we see the back of the machine, or behind the front door?

      Nintendo didn’t allow people to take pictures from the back, the reason why I don’t know. Probably because these aren’t retail units and will not resemble the final product.

    I wonder why they weren’t allowed to take pictures of the basic units? Could there be a visible difference..? Other than color.

    I think the gamepad was created to stop controller throwing by gamers

      And if some people can’t control rheir anger then their anger will control their wallets.

      Nah 3DS is second to Wii U. The Wii U is beautiful.

    this guy was clearly having an orgasm while recording this because its so shaky

    • Game Master

      lol

    Who else thinks they should’ve turned the TV button into the TVii button?

    • http://www.facebook.com/AJ.Fowl Andrew Chambers

      Nah, it’s better as a tv button. That way you can tap it (to pull up the remote) and change channels and adjust volume without affecting the game. As a tvii button it would activate another app, causing some annoyance when all I want is to control my tv with my controller.

    Ninbuzz old intro theme?

    USA is getting it first hahahaha Japan

    wait.. it looks like the wii u pad used a 3ds charger OOO:

    • Hybrilynx

      probably. after all they are using wii remotes and just reselling them again when the wii u comes out. doing the same for the charger would just make things easier on their side.

  • Sonic20012

    Nice, but I’ll be getting the white one.

  • anthony
