Brad looks like Solid Snake kinda...........maybe.........ok it's a stretch.

I wonder when the advertising is going to hit the media in the UK i have not heard anything

I keep forgetting this thing is coming out real soon. I guess that's a sign of my interest level in the Wii U.

30 second chunks...sounds like something you can do during TNT. :D

It makes me wish the Wii U had something to get me interested, I miss new console day!

@Reisz: it is only less than 2 weeks away

People will literally complain about anything on here.

Video needs to be re-filmed and uploaded.

Unboxing rule #1: someone must refer to the box as "bad boy"

LOL !

I just want one so I can try to balance on my head.

Big who cares.

the timeless test of putting the new thing on your head to see if its worthy.

BONER

It's too small to contain anything that will blow my socks from my feet. Socks on = no buy.

Show some gameplay for Zombiu, thats the only game I am interested.

Surprised that the handheld controller when seeing it on Brad's desk is bigger than the console on some dimensions from the looks of it. Looks interesting but fell in the Nintendo trap before (buying it then losing interest in it before 12 months) & that's not going to happen again.

Oh, welcome to this generation, Nintendo.

red blinking light driving OCD crazy! Check messages!

The embargo kind of made the whole thing boring. Going back to Steam now.

But enough about your junk, lets talk Wii U?

My junk is admittedly pathetic. Sometimes I just look at it and laugh.

@DarkbeatDK: Damn you're fast

Beard Look: Nintendo Wii U

Really interested to see how the reaction to the WiiU turns out and, more importantly, where Nintendo will be one year from now.

Also, 30 second quick looks have some great comedic potential.

Should have just shoved some sega roms on the game gear thing.

"Don't call it unboxing"

>calls it unboxing on youtube

Aw nooooo.. duddeee, don't say that. You're good! It's fineeee..

What? Patrick's head looks like it's not evenly weighted?

I love how Vinny's interest in this thing is just video guy related. PORTSPORTSPORST. 
 
Also love Drew shouting "HDMI OUT!" in the background (at least I think it was Drew).

This is Unbelivable!

Ooo, the Pro controller looks nice.

Those fake beards. Hint at GOTY stuff?

Goddammit Brad.. You need a better head.

Giantbomb is so dumb. I love it.

Fuckin Dave!!! please be in more videos. i love that guy

This is why I think every device/thing should be matte, except on cars.

FUCK GLOSS

But its so pretty right out of the box, those 10 seconds of clean glossiness is totally worth a lifetime of greasy fingerprints.

Best Quicklook this week!

You guys need white cotton gloves like Iwata had to prevent your dirty hands from marring the beautiful black finish. In fact, why doesn't Nintendo just package a set of gloves with every console?

Meh I don't see the point when the pc/xbox/ps3 already have most if not all the games that the WiiU may be getting.

With the PS4 and Xbox Next coming within a year or so, I don't see the point.

The Snider doesn't understand what this "console thing" is....

that thing on the bottom is obviously for your Rumble-Pak.

@blastershift: For the WiiU exclusives and the unique(for better or worse) experiences the gamepad will provide?

I think Vinny was the most excited, he kept wanting to touch the tablet controller thing until he got occupied with the manual.

So, will Brad be reviewing Wii games on the Wiiu finally? *Wink*

Jeff, please retire your current camera and get some HD business going.

the first thing they all try to do is balance it on their heads........... i fucking love giant bomb

I have a Wii U

I remember when the Wii arrived at Gamespot 6 years ago, Nintendo sent it in an Ice Cream truck outside and Brad collected it

This is the most unhyped console launch I can remember. I really haven't seen much of this thing outside VG websites.
