Tough to say at this time, but the Wii U can be a solid accessory that can bring a brand new element to Nintendo gaming.

I got my hands on the redesigned device -- which was first previewed last year -- after Nintendo's Electronic Entertainment Expo event in Chicago on Tuesday.

Listed here are my first impressions:

First, it. It is smaller than a tablet, but bigger than your cell phone. Doesn't necessarily feel heavy the responsibility of, and you should need to try challenging to snap it by 50 % (not recommended). It is a component controller and part handheld console, and new games are anticipated to look at advantage of both abilities.

Xbox SmartGlass will not pipe full 360 titles to second screen

Microsoft's impressive SmartGlass continues to be billed by many to be a shot across Nintendo's bow. After all, get the job done Wii U is run on wholly different technology and software, the result is remarkably similar. However, at E3, we had been capable of learn that the Wii U will retain a minumum of one potent edge on SmartGlass. That may be, a chance to play full-scale titles about the second screen.


All the potential as SmartGlass has, the technology won't support streaming full Xbox 360 titles to some SmartGlass enabled-second screen. I was told through the Microsoft representative that this technology necessary for wirelessly transmitting HD video streams just isn't in the current Xbox 360. This is the rare case of software the inability to help Microsoft hide the Xbox 360's age. Run up one for Nintendo.

Course, which is the Xbox that can't stream full games or HD video to SmartGlass screens. Microsoft could well be silly to never offer it in a future console, and also by time the Wii U lands this winter holiday new Xbox hardware can be quite a scant year away.

Microsoft has a interesting foundation in SmartGlass. Now we'll see the company does by using it. www.vdealbox.com
