Meet Nintendo's Wii successor, the Wii U

Meet Nintendo's Wii successor, the Wii U
Introducing Endless Mode: A New Games & Anime Site from Paste

One of the biggest questions going into this year’s E3 Expo was how Nintendo would revolutionize the way people spend money on Nintendo products, and today it’s been answered: Meet the Wii U, the successor to and usurper of your now-outmoded Wii console, and the machine that promises to provide a “new approach” to video gaming. And as you can see in the below introductory video, it’s all about the touch-screen technology (well, that and the belabored corporate-speak arguing that the "u" stands for "'unique,' 'unifying,' maybe even 'utopian"'), as the Wii U augments the current Wii stick with a pad that allows you to play on both your television and its six-inch screen, in addition to working as a controller with various target-sighting and flinging-ninja-star applications, as a conduit for video conferencing and web browsing, and even as a sketchbook for all your Legend Of Zelda fan art. Suddenly your old Legend Of Zelda fan art sketchbook looks kind of ridiculous.
