Nintendo's Next:Yes Nintendo did have more to excite us at its press conference than the already sneak-peaked news its' Wii U GamePad controller will also function as a "fully independent infrared TV remote." Wow. Also in the practical vein, did you know game discs for Wii are compatible with the Wii U? Wise move. And there's a soon-coming (probably 2013) network communication system called "Miiverse" that will encourage users to brag about Nintendo gaming accomplishments across multiple platforms including PCs and Web-enabled mobile devices.
