From "Nintendo Gamer Magazine"

  • Wii U tablet controller can act as some form of link to the Assassin's Creed "Animus"
  • Wii U tablet Animus can be used as a persistent on-screen map and navigation tool.
  • Animus Database entries that may pop up from time to time, could be displayed on the touchscreen instead and not interrupt the flow of the game.
  • The Animus can also act as an encyclopedia of information. Character biographies and bits of information that would normally be cast aside could be displayed on the touchscreen (take a break and read up on the side story & character history while eating dinner?).
  • Easy touchscreen weapon selection during combat. Quick change from dual-wield combat to single with a simple touch.
  • Using the touchscreen as an alternate view for Eagle Vision. Using the built-in accelerometer to control the camera view while in Eagle Vision.

Sounds awesome! If I could I'd grab it on Wii U first, but rule 1: NEVER buy a console on launch.

Seems pretty basic, though I'm not expecting much from multiplat ports. Also loving the new avi D4W1L4H :wink:

I wouldn't expect anything other than maps and inventory screens for multiplatform games and ports.

why not buy on launch? I have bought my gamecube, wii, ds phat and xbox 360 on day 1. only the xbox had day 1 issues which were resolved with a DOA swap.

all i see the wii u features being (with ps3/360 games anyways) is a substitution for an inventory/menu system and/or to show the map.

What have we even seen of the setting itself? Wouldn't it make more sense to at least wait to see some gameplay videos before you decide the game has been ruined?

Yeah I'm not crazy about the setting myself and would have by bar have preferred to see Japan during the Edo period. But I'll wait to see the gameplay before completely renouncing the game.

Well, out of the three console maker (MS, Sony, Nintendo) Nintendo would be the one I would be least worried about when buying something on launch. Buying things on launch is a risk though. You're basically buying a console at it's worst and most expensive time. Each console this gen had launch system probs. Sony had a 60GB ps3 prob if I remember and of course we have RROD. The wii problem wasn't nearly as big, but there was problems with launch systems reading dual layered discs. Best to wait atleast a year.
