After this and the podcast seems like you can only do 40% of the Wii U promised stuff at actual launch. Not a great way to treat the early adopters

Considering this isn't the reason that I am buying one I don't care if it tkes six months to become available. I'd rather get Pikmin 3 first anyways.

The Wii U doesn't seem that bad... It's cool with the HD and the good games that's coming to the console but the name "Wii u" just sounds too weird.

This looks so awesome! Kiddie system my ass.

I actually like this. I would rather get this late and have it be working 100% of the time than having it early and there being problems with it

For all of you who don't think the Wii U is awesome... you guys need awesome lessons.

Hmmm, this is one of the features that might've swayed me. Guess I'll be waiting for a bit more, I don't really want to fight with shortages and launch problems anyway.

TVii? Dear god...

Atleast it's getting released within a month after the Wii U releases. I'd rather wait and have it work than have it be broken at launch. Unfortinately though, there wont be much football remaining to really use that stat tracking for anyone who plays fantasy football... Fantasy Basketball maybe...

Just so you know, "Wii" is japanese for fun. Which makes sense. WHEEEEEEEEEEEEEEEEEEEEEEEEE! but seriously, don't make fun of Wii U because the "Orbis" sounds like a testicle wart. And "Durango" is an overused title. There's the town, the Dodge Durango, the brand Durango. Sheesh Never heard anything like Wii U

Not a big deal at all

Remember the 3ds and no estore? its number 1 in the world

doesnt matter

How intriguing. I suppose it is a good thing so the people who buy this new system can take the time to play around and get a feel with it and the games before jumping onto this new feature.

Nice brownie points Nintendo is earning with its additional feats..

does that have hdd recording capabilities like the ps3's playtv?

Can this play GameCube titles? I have not been paying much attention on the system specs.

I'm fine waiting for this feature.  On one hand, I'm not sure how likely it is for me to use this feature since I have a rather complicated home entertainment set-up, on the other hand, I'd prefer not to be overwhelmed by new Wii U features day one.

There's only so much you can play with in one day.  I'd like to get to know the other features first.  Hell, it was a couple MONTHS before I realized Nintendo hid a damn social RPG in the 3DS with Find Mii.

Too bad for them, for the casual gamers buying this system this would have been a buzz generating set of features (Wii is currently the console used most for things like NetFlix for example, those same users would likely be the ones who would love this new functionality as a guess). I hope it doesn't hurt their sales numbers, seems like an important feature to miss on the launch. Me, I just want it to play games, and being one who knows it exists and that it's coming in Dec (due to reading game sites) I'm fine with that as I'll likely just tinker with it anyways. Games, I'm narrow minded, I only care about the games. Like xbox being a media hub, don't care, I want games. But, understand the importance of the features in regards to such a broad user base.

granny also uses the wii u! haha! awesome granny. anyways, i cant wait for this console!

Did anyone actually stop to think that the reason behind this was so that they could incorporate more functionality into this besides just Tivo? I could be wrong, of course, but they said that at launch Tivo was the only DVR supported with more to come, perhaps that's the delay.
