WiiU is "Very easy to develop for."

Speaking in an interview with Nintendo Gamer, Team Ninja's Fumihiko Yasuda and Yosuke Hayashi broke the industry-wide silence on Nintendo's next-gen console, claiming its "very easy to develop for... We're finding it very similar to develop for Wii U as for Xbox 360 and PS3."
"They've asked us what we would want from the hardware, and when we give them feedback we can see that they're definitely listening to it and making changes," said Hayashi. "The hardware is still constantly changing."

Yasuda added: "The Wii U's touch control is like the Nintendo DS's. We released a Ninja Gaiden game, Dragon Sword, on DS, so we want to introduce some elements from that into the Wii U version [of Ninja Gaiden 3]."

Team Ninja's comments of course back up those of Street Fighter producer Yoshinori Ono, who claimed earlier this month that the Wii U hardware has 'advanced since E3'.

He said: "What we saw last E3 is not a reflection of everything this console is able to offer. We have been trying the development kits and some of its new characteristics will improve its possibilities. It isn't something like Kinect or similar accessories, it's something different."

Recent reports claimed the Wii U hardware is twice as powerful as the Xbox 360.

One new feature already revealed for the console is NFC technology, which allows users to read and write data wirelessly, in a similar way to how Activision's Skylanders action figures interact with the 'Portal of Power' reading device.

Unless It's not. You never know what It's really going to be like, but I hope it's good.

Awesome, I'm hoping that this will bring Nintendo back from the brink!

To be honest, They have to make something huge & unique or it's not going to be anything great.
Like what the features are so for as from what Kip said, Xbox & PS3 already have all those features, So what makes the WiiU better for copying other consoles?

They aren't really copying, they're just getting with the times (Internet wise anyways) and as i said, thats a (very small list of features)

In that case, it sounds pretty good. It'll still be extremely hard to compete with Xbox though.

I like everything about that, I just hope the stores don't suck like XBL and PSN. :/ They're both a mess honestly.

I like what they are doing with the controllers.. the touch pad ones, but still keeping wiimotes. I'd find it kind of awkward to play some games with the touch pad thing. Although its a huuuge plus for me, because I can play while someone else watches movies on my TV, which happens a lot. Other than that, the only thing I'm really looking forward to are the games... hoping that another Harvest Moon game makes it to Wii U, as well as a lot of other favorites.
