I NEED SCISSORS

How do the buttons being placed below the analog sticks feel?
All the character's helmets have a distorted reflection of the world around them concentrated somewhere (see the elephant's trunk). Could be just a well placed environment map but the way it nailed glossiness so realistically and accurately looked new to me.http://www.youtube.com/watch?v=4ONnwteGf_s this helmets? i dont see anything here more advanced that the current gen,well i havent tried the game just zombie u and rayman

Apparently there's a Demo mini OS, so nocan you access the OS / miiverse?
yeah it should, I think. It's still not that big, it's just surprisingly long.Does the main unit look like it'll fit in a rucksack? Sounds like it won't. I like to cart my consoles around to mates houses.

You can try your luck here:btw, aren't they going to have some tours in Germany?
Wii U controller: Screen is absolutely shit, very low resolution. Think low end Walmart brand LCD tvs that you would buy for a kid.
Damn. Sounds like you had a bad time. :/Software: The only game playable was Rayman. It sucked. Visuals were no different than Origins. I wanted to play the game with the WiiU controller, but I had to use the Wii wands and chuck.
Wii U controller: Screen is absolutely shit, very low resolution. Think low end Walmart brand LCD tvs that you would buy for a kid. Felt comfortable and light though.
Wii U hardware: It's just a long Wii. Still relativley small compared to 360 and PS3.
Not sure why Nintendo is charging so much for this, from what I've seen it's definitely something that could easily be sold at $149.99-$199 price range.
While far from "absolute shit", I did see a noticeable downgrade in quality going from the TV to the gamepad screen. Also, I wasn't sure if it was just the game or brightness setting, but the colors seemed "washed out".That's very surprising, I thought it looked great! Not Vita OLED great, obviously, but the resolution and image quality seemed to be exactly what I'd expect for an LCD screen of that size.
Like I said earlier in my impressions, I felt the relative display quality on the GamePad was about matched with what I was seeing on the ~40" TV they were using, which is about right.

I'm always remain apprehensive in trusting overly negative/positive reviews of a product. The first thing that put me off on the review wasn't even his opinions of the hardware but the visuals of rayman. Sure, it's still a 2D platform and the art style is relatively similar but the two games don't look the same.

You should let the guys in the hardware speculation thread know about this. They've been trying to figure out what the Wii U is for months.Wii U hardware: It's just a long Wii. Still relativley small compared to 360 and PS3.

This is my biggest concern now. I'm afraid that going from the iPad 3 which I use all day to the WiiU controller will be like a stab in the eyeballs.
Oh man, really? Ancel must be smoking crack or something. Ha ha, new lighting engine...that crazy guy.
lol...kidtendo cheaps out again. When will they learn? amirite

I would love to see your reviews for other products, such as cell phones. Do you blog?
Hasn't it got a better DPI than an iPad 2?It's a very cheap low quality screen.

Sucks to hear about the screen it's at least better than the 3ds right?

hm. Thanks for the impressions
One thing I didn't mention was that the WiiU pad felt no different than a traditional controller, hardcore games will play just as fine on it as any other controller. I doubt I'll have any issues playing Ninja Gaiden 3 or Bayonetta 2 on it. The pro controller seems a bit redundant.

I think games that are designed around the gamepad will always look great. I had no problems looking at the throwing stars from Takamaru's Ninja Castle or the "keyboard" in Scribblenauts Unlimited.I guess it might be hard to be totally objective in a crowded demo station environment. Well, even if I was wrong and results are less than spectacular once I try the system at home, it should be good enough.
It's a very cheap low quality screen.
What kind of FUD is this? Sure, you're not getting iPad Retina like resolution, but it's definitely above the DS/3DS screen level.Wii U controller: Screen is absolutely shit, very low resolution. Think low end Walmart brand LCD tvs that you would buy for a kid. Felt comfortable and light though.
I highly doubt it's cheap if they are going to sell it for easily over 100$ separately and especially since next to no other impressions have had anything but high praise for the screen.
You must be either the most picky person on the planet or expecting it to be HD or look like Apple product screens.

Yes, we were expecting Retina Displayed tablets... it is the norm after all for a price of $300 for a dedicated tablet based pc...
