Will “Project Cafe” (Wii 2) Change Everything, Again?

TSA: "The Wii changed everything, not always for the better, but anyone currently ignoring Nintendo should be keeping them firmly in their sights."

People don't really buy Nintendo products because of the hardware, it's more because the iconic characters and games they have come to expect. Mario, Zelda, DK etc. Nintendo is also about being affordable so something on par with 360/PS3 in terms of hardware will allow it to fall in that category while also making for some great looking Mario, Starfox etc games. That said, it will also allow for the Wii2 or whatever it will be called to play multiplats from 360/PS3.

"wii2" should at least run the U3 engine samaritan demo, any less is disappointing

fluffydelusions5533d ago (Edited 5533d ago )

That demo ran off 3x580's. That alone would cost $1500. BTW, that is the same card DICE is using to showcase BF3.

NewMonday5533d ago

1500$? WTF? Then Nintendo should sit this one out, I can't expect anything less then what's demonstrated by the Samaritan and B3 from a new consol.

fatstarr5533d ago

in due time you will be able to run that off of 1 graphics card.

a 500 series card in a Nintendo console would suffice for years to come.

bobrea5533d ago

I really can't see this system rushing the other companies to put out a new one. The Wii was so far behind in terms of hardware that this doesn't really justify Sony or Microsoft pushing out a new system any time sooner.

DelbertGrady5533d ago

Although for companies like Nintendo, Microsoft and Sony having a large install base is more important than having the most powerful system. Having raw power is one way to attract customers, having attractive features and solid franchises is another.

bobrea5533d ago

Yea, but I still stand by my point, especially if it's still a purely motion controlled based system. I haven't looked into the hardware specs or anything yet (if they're even available,) though.

Wii2 Will Be Outdated When Its Released, The Wii Was On Par With A Console Released In 2000 (PS2) And Wii2 Will Be On Par With A Console Released In 2005 (Xbox 360) Plus It Will Only Have Rehash After Rehash

DrVosknocker5533d ago

Well yeah, it'll be outdated by the time we get PS4 and Xbox next. Still, if it does have someting like an HD4870 and a new powerful IBM, it should play the PC Crysis Very High at 720p, plus more physics...that is if they don't only go with 512MB or ram. I really hope that's wrong. 4GB is so cheap nowaddays and games would benefit greatly. As for rehash...I agree, BUT it's not rehashing for the new generation of kids...which is what nintendos are for

soren5533d ago

rehashes on the wii? there only a few there are loads of great games on that system ur talking to a real gamer here not no bull shit one like ur self grafics and pyisc makes a game good? is that so that just provezs ur not a gamer but a tech junkie its fine to be a tech junkie but if thats all u care about dont call ur self a gamer i dont care if the grafics arent ps3 qal just as long as they aint ugly lets make not alot of ps3 games have good grafics but r shitty looking u know why cus the art sucks the colors or crappy and so on look at gears is like watching the 3 stooges with blood the none colored one lol ill give i to uncharted for both have great color grafics and gameplay but gears? it has noting

Yangus5533d ago

Change Everything,Again?

-I say yes!

eagle215533d ago (Edited 5533d ago )

If Nintendo's legendary franchises are sharing the store shelves with the highest profile multiplatforms....it's a very appealing position. Online is their biggest competition hurdle. Of course doing something unique whether in the look of the console, feel or controls of the console is what will catch attention.

U.S. patent examiner rejects Nintendo’s summoning characters patent as obvious: non-final ruling

The rejection is non-final (and even when such rejections are labeled as “final”, the process is far from over, given that there can be, at minimum, an appeal to the Federal Circuit).

Good, as they should! A game mechanic like that shouldn't be locked behind a patent, and Nintendo didn't invent it either.

PRIMORDUS66d ago (Edited 66d ago )

Nintendo wants to keep wasting money on bullshit lawsuits, real smart in this economy. They should put that money aside for other game projects. On the other hand, I don't care if they waste it all either, and they are screwed in the future maybe that will teach them a lesson.

Well dayum lol. Old agent orange pissing off every industry and nation.

0hMyGandhi92d ago

The fact that you have ANY disagrees will forever baffle me. And to the (apparent) MAGA contingent that exists on this website, enjoy your 8-9 dollar gas.

AuraAbjure91d ago (Edited 91d ago )

Yes, they had better be pissed after Trump told them the way they rip off the USA is over.

EveryPlatformGamer93d ago

LOL I read this on gaff, will they refund the money back to the gamers? highly unlikely. Didn't they just raise prices and pass it onto the gamers? Only Nintendo would send out the Ninjas to the US government.

-Foxtrot92d ago

That’s what I was thinking, imagine them winning hypothetically, getting a s**t load of money back which they would have lost if they hadn’t raised their prices and it’s business as normal.

It would just mean people paid more for no reason since they got the money back anyway.

Outside_ofthe_Box92d ago (Edited 92d ago )

A lot of companies partially passed the cost to consumers instead of all of it. They would still have to at least pay that back to gamers, but we know that won't happen. What's also sad is that prices won't come back down after the initial hike caused by tariffs.

People didn't understand the full repercussions of tariffs. That alone should have cost him the presidency if people knew it was a permanent price hike for consumers

Inverno92d ago

The people should sue these companies for having to over pay cause of these tariffs.

Eonjay92d ago

Naw they should sue the government for forcing the tax to begin with. No one reasonably expects these companies to absorb the taxes. Many smaller companies tried and were shut down or faced to increase prices to try to maintain their business. The tariffs effect everyone.

Inverno91d ago

I meant it mostly as a joke cause we all know the costs of these tariffs were passed onto the consumer. But it's seems no matter how vocal we are here in the states our "representatives" don't seem to care enough to represent us. And things are about to get worse.

Killer2020UK91d ago

The companies were doing what the law required then to do, the tariffs however were illegally implemented. Usually it's criminals we punish, you seem to have different ideas 🤷‍♂️
