Tails 6,690 Posted October 18, 2012 Some new information regarding the Wii U. A Nintendo representative has confirmed to Kotaku that you’ll only be able to voice chat with select games. Games that will be supported include Assassin’s Creed 3 and Call of Duty: Black Ops 2. The Wii U GamePad includes a mic but you won’t be able to use it with in-game voice chat. Instead, you will need to purchase a headset from Turtle Beach or Mad Catz which will plug into the headphone jack. As you may already know, the Wii U Pro Controller doesn’t include a headphone port. You will have to use the headset on the Wii U GamePad, even if you want to play Black Ops 2 online with the Wii U Pro Controller. Also, third party Wii U games will be more expensive. Online gaming publication CVG has noticed that third-party Wii U games all show a significant mark-up when compared to the Xbox 360 and PlayStation 3 versions. The publication spoke to an analyst who concluded that the premium price tags are commonplace for new consoles. Popular titles such as Assassin’s Creed 3 and Call of Duty: Black Ops 2 are around ten pounds more expensive than their Xbox 360 and PlayStation 3 counterparts.

Rob 5,571 Posted October 18, 2012 And my Wii U will still be in the store. I wonder how much these 3rd party Wii U games will cost. Quote Share this post Link to post Share on other sites
LordOfTheCastle 92 Posted October 18, 2012 It's ridiculous hardware decisions like this that make me turn away from a company I used to love in horror. C'mon Nintendo Quote Share this post Link to post Share on other sites
Weiss 8,279 Posted October 18, 2012 o_O Seriously? This is really bad news to hear. This was not a good move on Nintendo's part. Quote Share this post Link to post Share on other sites
KHSonic 41 Posted October 18, 2012 Ehh i could care less. Never used the feature. I'm sure it will all work out in the future. Quote Share this post Link to post Share on other sites
OmegaForte 1,674 Posted October 19, 2012 Wow, already bad news for Nintendo. Oh well I'm not getting it anyways till SSB4 or a Pokemon (stadium/col type) comes out. Quote Share this post Link to post Share on other sites
Sora96 17,256 Posted October 19, 2012 Makes complete sense. Blu-rays are superior to HD DVDs which is why Wii U games will cost more than 360 games. I would like to know why Wii U games will cost more than PlayStation 3 games though. Quote Share this post Link to post Share on other sites

Best reply I heard all week. cute its like having/buying a ds(if they didn't make poke/kh for it)for fun when u got plenty of cash to spend. So you're not going to buy a Wii U because no KH games won't be on it? Shame, you'll be missing out on a lot of good games coming out for it.

CjmonXIII 110 Posted November 2, 2012 http://youtu.be/i3VSM9iQeDA The only problem i have with this ad is the fact that they put so much emphasis on the controller, as if it were a new accessory for the Wii. Unlike the UK ad,which got straight to the point by saying it's a brand new console, not just a controller. But anyways i digress, what are your thoughts about this guys? 2 Tails and burnsideking24 reacted to this Quote Share this post Link to post Share on other sites
Mirr0rVS13 169 Posted November 2, 2012 (edited) I see this commercial more as marketed towards the uninformed casual crowd than your typical gamer who would have by now looked up any WiiU info on the internet or made up their mind on weather to buy one.
