Nintendo to announce secret “brand-new types of games” for Wii U soon

4.8
Nintendo didn’t really have much in the way of surprises at E3, and that’s because, as Satoru Iwata says, they wanted to focus on the “video game fans that are eager for information on so-called traditional games” at the show. But they have more in store for this year than just the stuff they discussed at June’s Nintendo Direct, including “new types of games.”

n a meeting with investors recently, Iwata discussed these secret games and explained why they haven’t talked about them yet. “When it comes to brand-new types of games, we have to announce them not too far in advance of the actual release dates in order to have a strong impact in the market and minimize the chance of others introducing similar or competing products. We are working on new types of games, but we would like to announce them much closer to their actual release timings for this reason.

“When it comes to Wii, as ‘Wii Sports’ spread throughout the world at a sensational speed, some misunderstood that all Wii could do is enable them to play games by moving the Wii Remote. With Wii U, therefore, we planned to satisfy existing video game fans first and provide new surprises later.”

Iwata makes it clear that some of these games he’s talking about will be released within the next year or so. But what could they be? Hmmmmmmm.

Meanwhile, in the same talk with investors, Iwata discussed the absence of the vitality sensor.

Yeah, whatever these "Secret Types of games" are I hope they are good, so people might get more encouraged to get a Wii U. But, it all depends on what kind of games they are.

RATF for the people who don't know what games are RPG's, Games like GTA, Skyrim, Defiance, Mass effect 3 etc...


yep cant wait till they make a decent rpg for wiiU


i'm not sure if it will fit in, i hope it does


It will get much more sales if it actually has good games.


Well it all depends on what their 'secret games' are. I agree that Nintendo needs to roll out a very good line up of games for the Wii U or it will continue having low sales.
