The Wii U (codenamed Project Café) is an upcoming home video game console by Nintendo, and the direct successor to the Nintendo Wii. The system is expected to be released in 2012 and was unveiled during Nintendo's press conference at the Electronic Entertainment Expo 2011 on the morning of June 7, 2011. The console has been described as belonging to a new eighth generation.
The Wii U is the first Nintendo console to produce 1080p high-definition graphics, and features a new controller with an embedded touchscreen. The main feature of the controller allows a player to continue a gaming session by displaying the game even when the television is off. The system will be fully backwards compatible with Wii, and Wii U games can support compatibility with Wii peripherals, such as the Wii Remote and Wii Balance Board. However, it will not be backward compatible with Nintendo GameCube media. Pikmin 3 has also been confirmed to be a game to be released on the Wii U.
