Nintendo Wii U
 
What are your inputs on Nintendo's next gen console?
Do you feel it will succeed, and what do you speculate the launch date and price will be set to?

Pikmin 3, SSB, and some other games coming out for it, I bet it'll succeed because of the famous old titles coming back~ :3

I bet it'll be like... $400 USD though... And probably coming out late 2013-late 2014

Ah, actually a few of the launch titles are due for release on Holiday 2012.
So the Wii U will be set for release late 2012. Possibly sometime in November or December.
$400 is a tad bit too high for my liking considering there are/is still some missing components/functionality, such as no Hard Drive and lack of Gamecube support. But $300-$350 sounds more reasonable. :)

In other news, Nintendo has officially announced that the launch colors will be both the Black and White ones.

I think the company was too late with this idea.

Will it play DVD's?

I'm really not a fan of it, plus it looks like they're trying too hard to break back into the big boys league. They lowered they're status with the Wii and I'm not sure they'll be able to come back with the Wii U. Just look at the controller that LD posted, it looks remarkably like an xbox 360 controller, bar the placing of the second thumb stick.

I'm just thinking it might be a little too late for them to be changing they're mind on the whole casual gaming front. Might as well stay the dominant force in handheld's. Not that they have much competition.

That's just my opinion yo!

OMG.

I didn't even notice that.

But they seriously should have done this in place of the Wii.

But it's just too late.

It does indeed look like a carbon copy of the 360 controller.
The only notable difference is the right half. Which is an inverted version of the 360 controller itself. A few 360 fans have made major complaints regarding this.
It is very likely that Nintendo developed it for the hardcore players.

There aren't many games I've seen for it that I want to get, so I'll probably wait until it gets a lot cheaper to buy it if at all ><
