Nintendo: Project Cafe - Wii U

[BlackDS]

They need to have a conference with SEGA about console name idea's.

I predict that Project Cafe will be called the Nintendo Pluto then.

Maybe the secret reveal at E3 is that the console was actually a partnership between Sega and Nintendo. And the launch title will be a Camelot-developed Shining Force IV.

And then we get a REAL crossover game with Mario and Sonic. Ah, we can dream.

And then working designs comes back and starts porting RPGs exclusively for the new system?

Guys, please, be careful.

Talk like this leads to premature ejaculation. As Sonic Sez: "That's no good!".

I just hope this new console has a classic controller (as default) and is backwards compatible with GameCube and Wii games.

Cafe will play Wii games but we don't know if it will also play Gamecube games. I know the Wii basically is a Gamecube in a different shell, so it's certainly very possible. However, Nintendo would save money by not having 4 Gamecube controller ports and 2 Gamecube memory card slots on the Cafe.

good point. I hadn't thought about the hardware cost of the GCN support.

Anything out there right now is still rumor. Nintendo could come out at E3 and say it is not backwards compatible. I mean it is not unheard of in the industry. Why make it backwards compatible, when you can sell the same games a second time with new controls?

Or they could come out and say that it has a breakout box with 4 cube controller ports on it, or 4 snes. It is highly unlikely, but like I said, everything is a rumor.
