Any particular reason why?
I'm guessing that being able to access it quickly with one's dominant hand might come in handy in certain situations..
He definitely does counteract the whole "wimpy immature Nintendo fan" stereotype. Dude's a badass, and from looks alone, I wouldn't want to run into him in a dark alley, hehe..
no no no! Playing the windwaker is great! The only thing that needs to be changed is, as you said, having to stop every time you want to change the winds. So just allow the player to use the windwaker without withdrawing the sale, that would perfect IMO.
And if handedness is a concern, just have an empty slot on the other side as well.
I always have a habit of taking my stylus out and putting it near me so I have quick access.
I wonder how different the Wii U stylus is gonna be compared to the DS and 3DS.

I just noticed it says 'Primary input method is tilting the controller to steer.' Maybe I'm worrying too much but I really hope that doesn't mean traditional controls aren't going to be available.
Good point.

Even if it's not a Nintendo feature, here's a possible side-benefit I've given mullage to before: Working with mostly standard Wireless LAN protocols means that it could be possible to set up routers to invisibly make a Wii U at one place think that it's sending to a local DRC that's in another place. This is useless to most people, but I personally find it a fun idea.
I still have no idea why the headphone jack is on the top part of the controller.
It makes more sense for it to be on the bottom. I don't want the wire to get in the way, especially if I have to move the controller around. (I am not talking about the wires blocking the screen) I know it might seem a little silly to complain about this, but the DS and the 3DS all had headphone jacks on the bottom too.

Respekt to RMC! You guys are a daily stop for all things Ninty. No one aggregates the N-News better!(say hi to MomBrain for me!)
Sweetness!
I have an idea for my Nintendo Room: mount two NES Zappers on green felt plaques, like dueling pistols. Place on wall. Very classy, eh?
A year or two from now when it's all built and done, I'll have to post pics.
Yesssss.

Tilt-based racer controls are only one year less traditional than stick-based racer controls.
…as in, one is thirty-nine years old, while the other is thirty-eight years old.
I have been known to submit news items once or twice a year to his site. But I know he has his normal RawMeatCowboy i.d. here. I suspect he doesn't have time to hang out here very long; keeping the site maintained and up-to-date, from what I gather, is pretty time-consuming.
And while I'm on the topic, doing a Nintendo podcast EVERY SINGLE WEEK for seven years running is a very incredible feat. That's a "How to Eat Fried Worms"-level accomplishment.
not final hardware.
The old analog stick version had it on the right side. I think they changed it because you're going to be holding the controller with your left hand when using the stylus. It'll be easier to put the stylus away on the side closer to your hand.
I know it is not final, but I am working with what I have seen so far. I would actually be pleasantly surprised if Nintendo moved the jack to the bottom.
He's posted on neogaf before, uses the same name.
Account system was confirmed back in january at one of their investor meetings.
Nah. I don't post NeoGAF stuff to 'em for that exact reason. I don't like to mix my two worlds. Seems like an unwise thing to do.
I don't think this will be very popular here, but I used to play YuGiOh and I'd be willing to buy a deck that can be scanned using NFC to activate a card or summon a monster. A YuGiOh game using NFC would be friggin awesome.
I'd love to mess with something like this. I can't wait to poke around and mess with the DRC.

It has been quite a change in tone over the past 24 hours. Seeing people who never come in this thread getting excited has me a bit enthusiastic about the system's prospects.
Maybe it won't do Wii-level sales, but I think it'll end-up doing pretty well for itself. Especially if they come-up with a great marketing campaign that shows-off the system's unique features.

Ryan82 is outcast from GAF and would like to say hi.
He also has now signed a binding legal contract which obligates him to buy me two copies of Time Splitters 4 for the Wii U.

Well if the range is as big as wsippel "hinted" at it might really not be too useful for many hehe.
I did read though that people tried to tunnel Monster Hunter 3G to fake online co-op, but they couldn't get the 3DS to accept the signal. Isn't that remotely related, would that point towards difficulties? (works on PSP apparently, and people seem to be able to play around with ni-fi on ds/wii at will too)
Nintendo why did you learn security, why not allow me to have region free hacks ;P
Does anyone have a link so I can read? I want to reaDDD
It will be our little secret.

Ah. Yes, I forgot that. Thanks.
I still wouldn't be surprised if there was some catch in it that messed it all up. But Nintendo has really taken a big step in the online department lately. Imo.

Probably go nintendo linking to a discussion in this thread.
Any idea on the bandwidtch of nifi? Is it just G or would we expect N this time?
I guess those two channels could be shared among all the pads. Do the work in hardware, copy buffer to memory with CPU, encode and send.
the accounts contain potassium benzoate.

I'm wondering when the account system will be launching.
Gotta give it to Nintendo, they're making big strides.

I thought it was going to be called the "Nintasty" from now on. Whose minutes are you reading, anyway?
You got it confused with the renaming of the NiN. It will be called the NinTasty.
Not sure what you mean by the second part D:

The beginning of a generation is really when you have to do it. The majority of the groundwork is generally set with the start of the machine, and it's not as easy to plan big changes in the middle of a system's lifetime (though it's possible).
