I'm pretty excited for this game and the Wii U.
I'm surprised people online are already bashing it when they haven't even played it. I saw several articles that detailed the experience playing the Wii U, and most of the authors said it was very enjoyable.
The funny thing is Nintendo is the only one doing any innovation nowadays. They're not afraid to take risks like other companies, and when they succeed all the other companies steal their ideas, claim them as their own, and say it's innovation. Look at the Move and Kinect...
