Nintendo’s Conference is the big one this year. They are the only ones announcing a new console and Nintendo has already said they are aiming at bringing back the core gamer to their brand. We’re hoping to foam at the mouth over what they have to say.

After the conference ends we’ll get our final thoughts on Nintendo written up for the blog and end our conference coverage with a final summary of who wins, loses, and why.

  • They announced project Cafe, which is Wii U, which is to say that Wii U is the new console, which is backwards compatible with wii stuff like the wii-motes, but has the Wii-U controller with the screen and such as well. It’s the new console that they just announced, just that all the focus is on the controller because that’s the big feature/gimmick. Could go either way at this point on how it all turns out.

  • So we are sure the Wii U is the new console ?? If that is so, I’m dissapointed .

    Will the U be a viable replacement to the other hand held devices that go with the Wii ?
