Novo nome do Wii U pode (e deve) ser anunciado no dia 26 de Abril (não é nenhuma piada de primeiro de Abril, É SÉRIO!)

Usuários da Neogaf fizeram um post falando dos eventos que a Nintendo marcará presença em Abril, e em quais há alguma chance do Wii U aparecer ou surgir uma nova informação sobre o mesmo. A grande expectativa recai sobre o dia 26, dia em que a Nintendo fará um release mostrando os resultados do seu ano fiscal(fim de Março 2011/fim de Março 2012). Muitas pessoas acreditam que novas informações do Wii U surgirão lá porque nesse mesmo evento em 2006 que a Nintendo anunciou o nome "Wii" para o nosso querido console. E no mesmo avento no ano passado que a Nintendo "anunciou" o Project Café, dizendo que mostraria ele na E3 2011. Então, parece uma boa hora para mostrarem o novo nome do Wii U, para que as pessoas possam se familiarizar com ele, e talvez mais detalhes de algumas informações que ficaram vagas. Confira o post:


Conferences/events Nintendo will attend/exhibit at in April:

In chronological order.

CMMA Professional Development Conference

Date(s): March 31 - April 3
Venue(s): Microsoft Conference Center, Redmond Marriott Town Center, Redmond, WA
Topic: Media management
Probabilidade de novidades: Muito improvável

Nintendo of America"s Charles Nishida (AV production manager) attends as co-chair together with Microsoft Studios" Brian Honey (director/group manager). The CMMA Conference concerns mainly the creation, distribution and utilization of communications media for corporations and probably won"t feature any news about Wii U (or Durango) released publicly anyway. On Monday there is an opening presentation at 9:00AM followed by a Tour Nintendo/Microsoft Studios at 5:15PM. I"m not expecting any news from this, but I"m expecting people to talk much about Wii U at least, perhaps there will be some buzz about Durango as well. It"s not every day Microsoft and Nintendo walk so closely.

PAX East

Date(s): April 6 - 8
Venue(s): The Boston Convention and Exhibition Center, Boston, MA
Topic: Public video game expo
Probabilidade de novidades: moderada

Nintendo will be exhibiting at this show. If they will demonstrate the Wii U or only offer demos of upcoming and current Nintendo 3DS games is unknown though. I"ve suggested previously that due to the show being open to the public Nintendo may provide something about Wii U to prevent an angry mob from being established, and also to not have to answer questions about Wii U all day with "I"m sorry, I can"t comment on that at this time".

2012 NAB Show

Date(s): April 14 - 19
Venue(s):Las Vegas Convention Center, Las Vegas Hotel and Casino
Topic: Audio and video content creation
Probability of news: Improvável

Nintendo of America is not exhibiting at this show, but attending. What they will do there I don"t know, but perhaps they are attending to find some interesting technologies to license for Wii U, or they are attending to talk with a company whose technologies or services they have already licensed but not announced yet. Major companies exhibiting at this show include Adobe Systems, Advantech, Akamai, Autodesk, Dolby, NVIDIA, Panasonic, Red Digital Cinema, Sony and THX to name a few. At it"s height we"ll get an announcement of some licensing deal, similar to that of Autodesk and Havok.

IBM 1Q 2012 Earnings Announcement

Date(s): April 17, 04:30 p.m. ET
Venue(s): IBM HQ, Armonk, NY
Topic: IR event
Probability of news: Improvável

I"m not expecting any comments or remarks on Wii U during the presentation, though anything could happen, if anything will come from this it will be via the Q&A session after the presentation. This usually takes an hour (Q&A session included) and is rather boring if you don"t happen to own shares in IBM; though sometimes they provide some details about upcoming tech, in vague language. Why this presentation could be of importance is that it reflects the first quarter of IBM"s business and I would think it is in their interest to brief investors about new initiatives within the fiscal year, and Wii U is included in that. I do not know what companies will participate, but hopefully someone us eager to know more about Nintendo"s new console and will ask about it.

Q1 2012 Advanced Micro Devices Earnings Conference Call

Date(s): April 19, 02:00 p.m. PT
Venue(s): AMD HQ, Sunnyvale, CA
Topic: IR event
Probability of news: Moderada

Much like IBM"s presentation will this focus on financials, but AMD always provides quite much information about upcoming and current systems and technologies. And like with IBM, this presentation reflects AMD"s business in the first quarter of 2012 and more than likely is briefing investors on new initiatives in the fiscal year something on the agenda. On the 2012 Analyst Day, AMD spoke about their increased involvement with the video game industry, maybe they are going to elaborate on this further. Most likely there will be a Q&A session to this. As I see it, interest in Wii U"s GPU appears heavier than interest in the CPU, so with little effort could AMD create some hype here even without actually telling something specific about the chip.

COLLABORATE 12 - OAUG Forum

Date(s): April 22 - 26
Venue(s): Mandalay Bay Convention Center, Las Vegas, NV
Topic: Technology and applications for the Oracle community
Probability of news: Muito improvável

Like the NAB Show, Nintendo is just attending and is probably seeking technologies to license or business partners. Notable exhibitors include AT&T, Cisco, Comdata, Fujitsu, HP, IBM and Thomson Reuters to name a few. Not expecting any news from here.

Nintendo Fiscal Year Earnings Release

Date(s): April 26
Venue(s): Nintendo HQ, Minami-ku, Kyoto
Topic: IR event
Probability of news: Muito provável, quase garantido

This is what we are all waiting for. Wii U news will most likely come here; if it will be more info about NFC and similar I don"t know though.

http://www.nintendo.co.jp/ir/en/

To summarize, in April we"ve got three events that may provide some new information about Wii U, the most likely being Nintendo"s IR event on the 26th of April.

Logo agora que me acostumei com o nome Wii U eles vão mudar. Mas bah, um novo nome fica melhor, pois "Wii U" é chato de pronunciar e os noobs ficam fazendo piada com o nome.

eu acho que tem de mudar pois eu tinha um WII e quando eu falava pros meus amigos eles falavam que wii eh um lixo e tal, e eh legal wii, mas se voce compra agora o WiiU e fala pros amigos ele vao pensar que eh um Wii diferente, mais potente... mas mesmo assim um lixo e tal. eu espero que mude

eu não via nenhum problema com wiiU, mas se mudar tudo bem

acho melhor que continue o nome wii u.
o nome do wii é por casusa que wii se parece com we(nós em inglês)
wii u é we and you(algo com todos nós, nós e voces), isso por que o wii e o wii u são os consoles da nova geração que mais tem jogos para multiplayer(local).

Eu acredito que ainda mude o nome sim, a Nintendo sempre faz isso. To ansioso por ele, esses dias bem atrasado comprar meu wii, espero quando lançarem comprar o U tbm.

prefiro WII U

Poderia por o Nome de Nintencore..

Nintendo + Hardcore.... LOL

Como o Guri disse, os Babacas vão pensar q o Wii U seria uma versão melhorada do Wii... Como fosse Game Boy > Game Boy Color , ou Nintendo DS > Nintendo DS lite > Nintendo DSi > Nintendo DSi XL

Não como Nintendo DS > Nintendo 3DS
ou mais GameCube > Nintendo Wii...

Nintendo Wii > Nintendo Wii U... eu tbm pensaria se n soubesse nada da nintendo.

Lembram-se do Dolphin que no fim virou Game Cube

Esses "babacas" são o publio da nintendo, os Casuais

To nem aii para o nome,oq me importa é os graficos,potência,diversão,controles,placas que vai usar,e etc não o nome.O nome é o de menos

O nome poderia ser WiiXtreme ...

...This is a secret ''for'' everybody...:
