Nintendo explains some of its Wii U demos on E3's showfloor...
For those of you not lucky enough to be at E3 with a shiny press pass, Nintendo has released a video with footage of the demos that its running at the convention for its new Wii U console. There's also some handy explanations of how the nifty Wii U controller fits into the likes of Chase Mii, Battle Mii, and Shield Pose. Think of these as game concepts for the console rather than confirmed titles at this stage though...

why does everyone who thinks they know what their talking about go on about the ps3 and the 360 using a microsoft graphics subroutine only found in PC's "Direct-X" and why DX-9 when the 360 launched at the same time as vista (DX-10), why dont all you morons just get a DX-9 graphics card and try to run the latest games like dirt 3 @ 1080p, im almost certain you cant or it'll run but at a much jerkier frame rate and certainly no where near 30 fps let alone 60 fps.
now for all you moronic PC fanboys out there did you forget some PC games still use open GL 3.0 i mean come on how old is that, or what about D3D (Direct 3D), grapics routines and proccess is done completly differently on PC's compared to consoles they are deicated games machines and with age the graphic on them gradually gets pushed right to their limits where as most PC gamers barely puch their graphcs cards to the limit as there upgrading every 12 months to the latest hardware ( a bit pointless unless youve got money to waste ).

sorry tom but if you think sony or microsoft demonstrated that everyone wanted HD this past gen then by that your theory is flawed, nintendo bought somthing new rather than a graphics update and the Wii quite literally dominated and still is dominating this gen using last gen graphics, what kinds of leaps forward do you expect there to be when 1080p will be the standard for at least another 10 years.
so far this gen even owning both a ps3 and 360 id still say the wii is the most inovative console this gen and nintendo obviously understand what people rather than just gamers want, also there is at least a further 9 months before the Wii U is even out so further improvements can be made.

This is a real big deal for Nintendo,you see the market is a fast place for change and innovation to take place. Most people want something modern and unique not yesterday. The PS3 and 360 were great when they came out but today they are ancient in the CPU and GPU area not to mention they are direct x 9 capable which hasn't been used in game development for years. If recent rumors are true and If Nintendo comes out with a next generation system next year with significant processing power, cutting edge graphics, HD compatibility and other unthinkable innovations then this can be a real game changer for Nintendo.

Perhaps the Wii 2 will have the aborted Vitality Sensor built in from the get-go?!?

All your favourites: Zelda, Mario, and Donkey Kong in glorious HD with top-of-the-line visuals. It's an exciting prospect...
