I use the Internet browser on my Wii daily, so this is a welcomed feature(hope it supports adobe updates!).

Trunkz5436d ago

I REALLY don't wanna call it a Wii U, hopefully they change the name XD

SilentNegotiator5437d ago

Too bad it doesn't have multitouch. I've always enjoyed zooming in and out with the two-finger technique thing.

baxy-z5437d ago

hmm yeah that will sucks now I've got used to the iphones browser :(

matey5436d ago (Edited 5436d ago )

i use 3DS Browser it doesnt do video but does picture sharing on Facebook/myspace/forums ect faster than my PC and it also isnt much slower than Wii which is lightning quick if they added Flash to 3DS it would be amazing but there giving us proper YouTube 3D Video service that will eclipse ur standard YouTube and will run smoother iphone videos always stop and start at least 3DS Browser does everything smooth without flash.

matey5436d ago

I love the name and logo

WiiUnique it stands 4 Unique as every developer has said WiiU will make games unique ie WiiUnique HD

scottd5436d ago

did anyone actually read this? no where is this stating that the controller has a built in web browser its still streaming from the console.read the source.

optimus5433d ago

FROM THE SOURCE: ....

This is a device that Miyamoto seemed more interested in discussing in terms of how it will be used outside of gaming.

You could, he told me, use the controller to browse the web in your living room. You could use it, he suggested, to find something of interest on the Internet and "set it up" so that when the television was turned on to the console people could enjoy your discovery without needing to wait for any loading screens or on television web surfing.

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.

PRIMORDUS38d ago (Edited 38d 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.

0hMyGandhi63d 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.

AuraAbjure63d ago (Edited 63d ago )

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

EveryPlatformGamer64d 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.

-Foxtrot64d 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_Box63d ago (Edited 63d 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

Inverno64d ago

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

Eonjay64d 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.

Inverno62d 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.

Killer2020UK63d 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 🤷‍♂️
