minecraft wii u is a fantastic idea, in 2012
>>319332098
You aren't joking, aren't you?
>>319332065
>Nintendo knows their audience
Mincecraft is in every single system you autist. I get that you want to talk shit about Nintendo but at least put some effort into it.
>>319332065
>>319332098
BASED NINTENDO
>>319332220
Pic related, it is you
>late port
This might have mattered a few years ago when Minecraft was bigger
>>319331926
No
The guy who said there'd be an announcement is the dude in charge of the indie eshop stuff
So anyone who expected something actually important is an idiot
>>319332065

>Smash Direct coming in December
>One week into December, no news or updates
>Big announcement from Nintendo coming Monday the 7th
>It's Minecraft on the Wii U
>Mfw if Nintendo decides to release the direct on New Year's Eve
Minecraft could be cool using that second screen
Trade in that Wiiu while you can boys
>>319335010
what is going on?
>>319335134
Some guy named ken found out his girlfriend got him a wiiu, he found the receipt, returned it, took the money from that and bought a ps4. When he got home he wrapped it up so his girlfriend wouldn't know what she got him.
>>319332065
For the Wii U? Kinda missed the boat on that one. The Wii U was the perfect fit for it, with the second screen and all, but now Wii U is dead in the water and the Minecraft fad has pretty much died down.
>>319335134
GF bought a wii u.
He hates nintendo and when he saw it he took it back to the shop to trade it in for a PS4. Then wrapped so this gf wouldnt notice.
>>319335491
>>319335295
it would be funny if he found out it was supposed to go to some one else
>>319335010
This is legit autism. How much lack of self-awareness does it really take to bring a gift back before you even received it just because you don't like it?
>>319335010
Not boyfriend material at all. What an immense faggot.
>>319336203
>>319335938
Take your tears to r9k crybabies that shit was the funniest in months
>>319335938
No anon, YOU are the autist here. You have to have megaautisim to actually get rustled over somebody taking something expensive, well intentioned, and wrong and doing their bet to turn it into something great while also being sensitive to the other person. We're not talking some $10 knicknack, this shit costs real money. Nobody normal expects to be a perfect omniscient at getting the perfect gift for somebody else, PARTICULARLY if it's in a field they aren't familiar with (as is obviously the case here). That's why gift certificates and such are popular gifts: you might know somebody is "interested in INSERT_HOBBY_HERE" but not know the first thing about said hobby, so you don't know what would actually be good. So you find a good store that's related, it shows more thought then flat out cash but nobody normal would ever want somebody to take something pricey and then toss it in the closet. We want people we give genuine gifts to to be happy about it, duh.
A gift with a return is just one step back from that and also quite common when there is uncertainty. It can be more fun then a certificate since it's something physical and a nice big box and so on, but it's very normal to have a quiet little "here's the receipt too, if you need to do a swap because I got the wrong variety/color/size" alongside.
This dude didn't call his GF shit, he appreciated the thought, so much that he worked hard to make sure it was still a full fancy gift and everything. Now everybody is happy. Obviously his GF knows nothing about vidya but just picked out whatever, possibly influenced by someone biased, and she just wanted to get a nice gift. She doesn't care exactly what it is, it's enough that it's a quality console under the tree.
>>319336962
tl;dr
Can't wait
>>319336962
Or she wanted to play mario kart with him, and now they don't get to play anything since it's a ps4
>>319336962
>YOU are the autist here.

I ain't reading that shit

This guy gets it!
THANK YOU BASED KEN

>>319337486
Hnng. That is pretty cute.
>>319335134
some autismo lied and said he returned a wii u his "gf" bought as a gift to buy a PS4.
Except his autistic ass was called out immediately, the bag was trashed, aka too old, and the wii U model was one that wasnt being sold anymore.
After that he autistically tried to keep forcing his dank meme thread, and >>319335010
is most likely that very same mongoloid cockslap.
some say his real name is Kenny Toyos
>>319336962
>YOU are the autist

>defending someone who supposedly returned a gift they didn't even receive yet.
Oh man the irony
>>319337632
I make high 5 figures (which is decent in my part of the country, I don't live in a city) and my personal investment account is now over $870k at age 32, so relatively speaking I'm doing decently. But I'd still consider anything $200+ to be significant for an entertainment-oriented Xmas present, definitely not something I'd want someone to take out and turn on once and then toss in the attic. I'm the vidya person so if I was buying this wouldn't come up, but my close family and GF are all super into biking which I'm not. It's trivial to spend hundreds on fancy wheels or seats or even pedals (frames themselves easily go into the thousands, they've got ones already) or other accessories like lights/GPS, all of which I know jack shit about and are intensely personal. I literally have spent hundreds on some of that gear as gifts, and I did research and tried to get something good, but I always, always included the receipt if it was a surprise (usual for family, sometimes with a significant other you'd just go and pick it out together and that'd be the present).
How could any of you be insulted by something like that? Nobody says "hurr you dumb fag you got the wheel made with the wrong titanium" or some shit, everyone appreciates it and if it's right uses it but if not they just exchange, I wouldn't want them spending hundreds of hours using the wrong tool just to assuage my fragile ego, if I had such a faggot thing.

This is what children who grow up on all thoughts being 140 characters are actually like. This is the future of our nation. Bravo America.
>>319338486
I'm sorry you and your family are subhuman terrible creatures.
>>319338486
Anon, there's no such thing as the wrong titanium. Atomic theory anon, atomic theory.
Will the Wii U version of minecraft make use of the gamepad?
Fuck 'em if not.
>>319339001
>Anon, there's no such thing as the wrong titanium
When normal people refer to something being made with "titanium" or "steel" they are talking about a broad class of possible alloys and construction methods anon. Commercially pure titanium has been used for stuff like implants but normally for actual mechanical applications it's alloyed with varying amounts of alpha or beta stabilizers (like aluminum/gallium/carbon or molybdenum/vanadium/iron respectively). Additionally thickness, process, and so on all change the final macro structural properties.
When it comes to sports it's fairly common to have fine variations and different options there. I do not care. I do not question it. Since I'm not an autist, I can recognize that it's the same to me as talking about CAS timings in DRAM would be to them. They do not understand or care about overclocking headroom or the quality of VRMs or whatever on a GPU, hell I'd be surprised if they'd even research raw decibel count. In both cases it's enough that somebody tried, it's expected that the expert will then replace it if necessary. It's either that or never buy a high end gift for an expert except for something outside of their own interest. Which sometimes is good but not as a universal.

>Will the Wii U version of minecraft make use of the gamepad?
I'd be extremely surprised if it didn't as otherwise why even bother with the Wii U version at all? It'd just be an inferior port of the already inferior console versions
MINEY CRAFTA
>>319341401
What I'm asking is, can you use it to manage your inventory/craft or allow for multiplayer without need of sharing the split screen?
Or will it just mirror the TV and be only slightly convenient.
>>319342804
Yeah I get what you meant, it's not known yet though but it'd surprise me if they don't use it properly for inventory management as that's a really obvious feature they should bother with
Cmon guys, there has to be more than just Minecraft for the announcement, right?Right?
>>319343868
Steve confirmed for Smash :^)

Imagine how fast the Amiibo would sell.
