FFXIV on Nintendo WII U

[Asmeret]

To be honest, I could care less if this game comes to the new Wii. I just want to be able to hook that controller up to my PC and stream FFXIV to it while I lounge around the house.

Console market is XIV's only chance at this point so YES.

no hard drive?

[Warlyx]

i do lol ......but i work with a PC so that doesnt help >.>

Yes.. It only makes sense to port to as many systems as possible.. the new Wii system has the specs to run this game at full specs.. and could bring in a large population.. I would also like to see a new Mario RPG ;p

USB 2.0 will give transfer speeds of about 35MB/s. So I doubt the games will be slowed down to a lot let alone a visible level, same for SD cards.. they're about the speed of a laptop drive.

35MB/s is nothing, especially when you compare it to the 192MB/s that a SATA 1.0 drive (which the other two systems are using, if I'm not mistaken) is capable of--that's, what, 5.5 times as fast? What makes the speed issue such a huge concern for me is that, assuming Nintendo offers serious online and DLC support, the Wii U is likely to be the worst console for both because the low read/write speeds of the supported storage formats are going to translate into longer loading times, and it'll get even worse if large amounts of patch data are involved.

Skyrim is ok, but i think you'll find a lot of people have lost interest in halo franchise. And everyone is redoing their old games right now, seems gimmicky. The ability to play through some of the old games are nostalgia, but I don't like shooters, the halo storyline was still interesting but after 2, (2's always suck) they needed to recapture people and 3 did not do enough. Just sayin' I've literally only heard you and two other people speak halo's praises, and those two other people just play halo threes online all the time and are pretty lame.

Supposed hardcore games? Really? Ninja Gaiden 3 is SUPPOSED to be hardcore? Assassin's creed too i guess is suppsoed and so is darksiders II.... i wonder what is so much more hardcore on PS3... oh wait....let me guess.. is is...Ninja Gaiden 3? Dude if you have nothing smart to say just shut up.

I said it was a matter of opinion. You come off so nintendo fanboy. Calm down if someone doesn't think that game is hardcore, if I can beat a game in a day because its easy mode, I really don't consider that game hardcore. I don't consider a game hardcore if there's no incentive to replay it. These two things are based on OPINION. which differ's from person to person, there isn't even a set definition for hardcore gaming. You shouldn't call people dumb when they don't give a crap about your nintendo fandom and their just hear to talk about their opinion about nintendo wii u on e3.

Well, if this ever did possibly happen, which sadly I don't think that it will, the Wii U controller screen could serve as a virtual keyboard with macros, hotkeys, and more available to the player saving them the time and hassle of using a real, wired/wireless clunky keyboard. Action bar set to the controller screen would be pretty cool too along with maps and beastiary of some sorts. Only problem is getting the game to run smooth on the system and the online service that hasn't been officially revealed and explained yet.
