GN Version 4.0
- Almost every Wii U user already has a Wiimote, Nunchuk and even WM+
- this gives controller freedom to devs
- alternating IR pointing at both screens is possible
- Miyamoto doesn't think Nintendo fell behind with online, but now is the right moment to really push online
- Miyamoto says you 'have' to be online with Wii U, meaning you really can't miss out
- Retro qualified for Zelda game, but having them located in America would cause some issues
- Nintendo will encourage handwritten messages on Miiverse
- 2 current goals for Miyamoto are: working on his own creations and creating teams which don't need him.
- iPad Mini screen size is another indication they took the right path with GamePad design
