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.

Woobie I'm thinking more shooter games.. or something less strenuous on the body.


Some shooter games would be pretty cool for the WiiU in my opinion, I'm personally hoping that they are releasing some Role Playing Games.


Role Playing Games? I've heard of a few flash RPG's and I guess Pokemon could count as an RPG to some sort of aspect but that's about all I have heard. Has Nintendo done any other RPG's in the past?


well i just hope the fit in well


I would have to play some before making a judgement on how they play out. I've never played any RPG's unless Pokemon does count as an RPG. Other than that I never have, but if it has a huge fanbase it can't be all bad.


trust me RPG's are awesome
