Nintendo To Introduce New Wii U Prototype
Like UnlikeFiled in: Game ConsolesNintendoWii U
Developers are about to get their hands on a new version of Nintendo's impending Wii U console.
Within the next month, the company plans to have a brand new prototype of the device ready for developers, many of whom seem to be excited about the console even though the rest of us don't have many details.
Gary Dunn of Sega Europe told Eurogamer in an interview that the Wii U specs are far from being concrete, and even Nintendo's closest partners don't know everything the final version will entail.

"A lot of people turn the 3D feature on the 3DS down or off completely. It's fundament....
