Creed Diskenth Posted May 20, 2012 Report Share Posted May 20, 2012 It’s been a slow weekend, that is until GamesRadar found the above picture of a Wii U Controller that seems a little beefier and with two new analog sticks. The picture came from a tweet from a tester at Traveler’s Tales (developers of Lego Harry Potter, Batman etc…) which has since been taken down. No word on whether this is the final version or still a prototype. Considering that we’ll find out in a couple of weeks, my money is on a final version. Compared to the controller we saw at last year’s E3, it is a little bigger and also features two fully functioning analog sticks, whereas the original version had simpler circle pads. Head on over to GamesRadar for a good comparison shot of old vs. new. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Kurtis Posted September 13, 2012 Report Share Posted September 13, 2012 Nintendo has revealed it will launch two versions of its Wii U console in Japan on 8 December. The basic edition will cost 26,250 yen ($337; £210) and a premium version 31,500 yen ($405; £251). Details of the international release will be discussed in New York later. Nintendo's stock has fallen 29% since March on fears casual gamers will instead opt for tablet computers while hardcore players will wait for a new PlayStation or Xbox . The difference between the two versions of the Wii U is that the basic model features 8GB of storage, while the premium version has 32GB and additional stands for the games machine and its touchscreen controller. Touchscreen technology Consumers wishing to buy an additional GamePad controller will have to pay 13,000 yen ($167; £104). The device features a touchscreen offering players to ability to carry out in-game tasks, such as checking their inventory or setting an explosive, while the main action continues on their television. Gamers can also continue to play a title using the device when they do not have access to their main screen. Nintendo has claimed it would help "revolutionise" gaming. However, the gadget has been criticised for lacking multitouch - the ability to recognise different fingers on a hand. It also faces a challenge from both Sony and Microsoft who have introduced similar facilities for their existing consoles: the PlayStation 3 can be controlled by the firm's Vita handheld, while the Xbox 360 can be connected to existing tablet computers via software called SmartGlass. Nintendo's president, Satoru Iwata, highlighted the fact that the Wii U would launch alongside New Super Mario Bros U - the first time a title in the series's release date had coincided with a new console in 16 years. One games journalist said the relatively low price of the equipment could help its chances. "We were all expecting a price point around the £250 mark so it's good that they've gone for this - it will help," Keza MacDonald, UK games editor at IGN, told the BBC. "Most people expect that the new Xbox and PlayStation will be released at the end of next year and will cost more - so some people may prefer to save up. "But many of the consumers that Nintendo is targeting may not be actually be the same audience as for those Microsoft and Sony's machines - so the issue is whether it can convince the casual, family gamers who bought the original Wii, to upgrade." Nintendo will host a press event with more details in New York at 10:00 local time (15:00 BST). http://www.bbc.co.uk/news/technology-19583826 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
