What I don't get is - where is the market for a lot of the announced games on the Wii-U? This is a re-imagining of Tekken 6 - a 4 year old (in arcades) game? Arkham City will also be at least half a year old by the time it hits the Wii-U, among a few other announced titles.
The big question is, does the "U Controller" gimmickry warrant another purchase? Drawing on people's faces isn't worth it for me if we have to deal with frustrating friend codes, and bad online play.

They already announced a few days ago that the Friend Codes are no more and are moving on to an gamertag like system.

So what if I have friend's over who want to play. Are they supposed to use a Wii-mote for Tekken? lol
Wii U is unappealing to me for this very reason.

I'm actually optimistic that Nintendo will get good 3rd party support this time around. I hope they don't let me down. Either way, buying a Wii U may be worth it just to play a Tekken game where everyone has penises on their faces.

Not if I theoretically have 4 Children. New console, 4 Wii-motes to plug in those 4 classic controllers so they can play ports of games I could of had for months / years already?
Sounds like a lot of money for a new adopter when I already could own 1 of 2 consoles that play the exact same games for a lot cheaper.

Is that a joke that the drawings can stay on a character for up to a year? hehe I hope it is...and I think it is...but is it? Also, drawing could be done with motion controls or a standard controller, no need to own a WiiU to have the ability to draw :P
Also, I don't see why stage creation hasn't been on any other system before, I assume it will be on future titles in the Tekken series for PS3 and 360. Glad to see a stage creator though!

@Nyktharas: So you'll let your children watch The Penguin kill an inoccent man? I know it's Batman but come on... Not even The Dark Knight was 100% for kids, was it?
I'd be cautiously optimistic about 3rd parties if I were you Holmes. Like you, I'm very happy to see 3rd parties starting embrace the Wii U. That unbridled joy quickly evaporates when I'm reminded that 3rd parties were doing the same thing when the Wii was announced. The Wii wasn't the first time that 3rd parties struggled to make a name for themselves on a Nintendo console, but it is the first time they made an effort to support a Nintendo console and falling flat on their face. Hopefully things change this time around, but I'm not holding my breath.
Only new features I might be interested in are the stage creation and extra practice mode stuff. The rest is meh.
Good to see that Tekken is now on a Nintendo console. Can maybe expect newer entries like Tekken 7 releasing on all three home consoles and both handhelds? :)

@nyktharas There are several options regarding that, such as the classic controller, classic controller pro, and the Hori Fight stick that I have, and the fight stick that was released along with Tatsunoko Vs Capcom. There should be no problems playing Tekken on the WiiU
@Magnalon this is going to be a brand new Tekken developed just for the WiiU. It just looks like Tekken 6 right now. Wait until it actually comes out. Also, if the online for the WiiU is anything like the online for the 3ds, then there will be no problems.

Big Tekken and Nintendo fan, getting this on day one even if own (and love) Tekken 6 for PS3. Same with the 3DS version.
Yeah Tekken Advance was great! It was basically a 2d fighter tho and didn't really feel like Tekken.
@Magnalon
there were plenty of games already available for the PS2 on the 360's launch line-up, and more got simultaneous releases with sixth generation consoles early on the 360's life cycle too.

Looks pretty cool. Still with the options of drawing things with the tablet, I'd love for Capcom to release a new Okami game in HD. Imagine how cool drawing things on the touchscreen would be! I've never played Okamiden btw, as I've never had a DS.
