    Faced with intense scrutiny, investor pressure and the first fiscal year losses for his company in over 25 years, Nintendo president Satoru Iwata once again reiterated plans for the future. Notably that includes making sure Wii U is available globally by the 2012 holiday season.

    Though we've heard many times Nintendo plans to release the new home console sometime this year, this is the first we've heard Nintendo outright state it plans to bring the system to all major territories (North America, Japan, Europe and Australia) by the holidays.

    In remarks to reporters, Iwata also emphasized he plans to restore Nintendo to profitability next fiscal year.

    I think it's a tad too soon, they should wait to early 2013.

    DS, you got into this generation way too late. These consoles are old. Like, really old, for today's technology, and the fact that it took them shorter time to make the GameCube to Wii transition, PS2 to PS3, and Xbox to 360.

    I don't say that due to the age of previous consoles, I say it because there is hardly any info on the U. Hell I'm still confused on how the controller is used and all that stuff.

    I can see why they want to release early but I am also the same I do think it is a little too early. Leaves them much less time to really explain so much more aswell unless they cram a whole lot of explaining into the E3.

    still takes time for info to get out and generate hype for people to buy it. Only reason they even showed their next machine (in a sense of having one) was due to the fact they only had some DS game trailers to show.

    did we watch the same press conference? they showed off some tech demos and the controller a little bit and didn't show the console at all. Now take that out and what did they have left for their press conference? Just a few 3DS trailers and thats it. I'm pretty sure Nintendo showed off the Wii U earlier then what they wanted to.

    The console looks like the Wii, that's not the important part anyway. They wanted to show off the controller, and what the system is actually capable of.

    without the console, Nintendo just showed off a handheld and or tablet.

    then they should have showed more of the console. Because it did look like a handheld console or their tablet.

    I don't see why you are obsessing over a slightly modified Wii...
