IGN - Wii U continues to evolve, even ahead of its scheduled "second debut" at E3 2012 later this year. At its most recent investor conference, Nintendo's global president, Satoru Iwata, revealed the company has added "NFC" technology to Wii U's tablet controller. The communication standard allows for proximity-based interaction between the controller and a nearby device with similar capabilities. Think of key cards that simply need to be near a card reader, or Activision's Skylanders game, and you are thinking in the right direction.
NE: "Kirby's been on more than a handful of adventures, and we've gathered a list of 10 of the best Kirby games here."
Bloodstained: Ritual of the Night has received a bunch of new DLC, including two new gameplay modes, for free.
From base building to swinging willies, here are the best survival games around, which include a couple of less than obvious picks.
NFC's? I just wanna hear more about the online capabilities.
I've heard various things about this. One thing I like is that you can apparently synch the controller simply by touching the system with it. That would be a great upgrade from their current format for adding controllers.
I don't even know what nfc is! So I'm going to say nope. Give me HD Nintendo games, at a price of $300 and I'll happily give Nintendo my money.
Consoles are worth $300, handheld's...not so much.
I have to say I don't really care about NFC at all, be it in the Wii U or iPhone.
The only NFC i tend to need is my speaking voice.
Just make sure the power of the console is up to date and the online isn't a joke.
I know I'll end up using a classic controller 99.9% of the time and a Gamecube controller via some converter when Smash Bros. Comes out.
