A little eeh, but it's better than Cafe at least. 
How to tailor a game for U? Hmm...

Change board name. It's all right. It's sounds a bit awkward, but I think we'll get used to it.
Did you really think it was gonna be called Cafe?Ken Masters said:A little eeh, but it's better than Cafe at least.

Wii U sounds ghey but the console itself is wicked, I love the idea of having a "Pseudo-HandHeld" for a controller, new and creative.
Haven't had a chance to read much on it (I'm working & only home on break) but the concept doesn't really impress me much. Its essentially a handheld, but you have to be within range of a console to use it if I've read correctly. It might be as powerful as a PS3 as they're saying, but its still a tiny screen (not to mention, the PS3 has been out for several years so matching its graphics isn't that impressive since this isn't a legit handheld).
I think it will be the Wii all over again. People will be really excited for it, sales will crazy the first 2 years. Then it'll lose steam to other consoles.

I guess it's alright

I believe the controller/handheld screen supplements the gameplay on the TV which you're meant to play at.
I'm really really excited.
The name itself is really ghey and I don't like it.
WHY NOT THE NINTENDO REVOLUTION?!?!???!?!?!?
Anyway, not too excited for this system...I wish Nintendo would wait just a few more years or something...

See that's what I thought at first but then I skimmed an article that made it sound differently.
I don't really see how a supplementary screen would work though or the point. Like obviously you can't look at 2 screens at once (it's not like the DS where you can glance) so action on one screen would have to stop/slow so you could be on the other screen. I guess then they could use the handheld thing for aspects of a game that would be enhanced by a touchscreen but still seems kinda unnecessary.
It would be better if they were separate entirely but could be used together. Like how you could connect GBAs to the GCN, but way better. I guess then that would bring in a price issue though.
Don't like the name much. Not too impressed so far since all I mostly care about my consoles are the games.
Nintendo Round Table said, "Do not expect Wii U pricing, release date etc. Way too early for that kind of information."
If anyone owned a WiiU I bet they'd be embarrassed just telling people they own a "WiiU". Well at least it's not that bad of a name. It seems overall like an amazing system and I hope we hear more about it later on.

I figure it was "Wii U" cause they couldn't pronounce "2" correctly.

Lolwut? That can't be possible.
Imagine a Japanese person trying to say "2"... "Wii U"
I think I remember TT posting a long time ago that 2 in Japanese was "Ni" and that if it were Wii 2 it'd be Wii Ni.HuntMac said:Imagine a Japanese person trying to say "2"... "Wii U"
I'm sure they'd say Wii Tsu, not Wii Ni or Wii Futa
Why not call it Wii 2U?
"Wii Tsu Yuu"
