"I can't really talk about it much, but I think what we're doing is really cool," Weber said. "Maybe we're not hearing a lot about [Wii U] today or in this week, but I certainly believe it's going to be a product we're going to be proud of. "Here's what I will say, and she," Weber added pointing to a publicist sitting in on the interview, "may not want to hear me say this, but it's the truth: Whatever we release on the Wii U will not be a cartoony, dumbed-down, arcade football experience. It will be the real deal, HD simulation football."

"Conceptually we look at it in the same kind of way," Weber said, of SmartGlass and Wii U's tablet. "I think our designers are trying to solve problems around, 'How do you take advantage of the smart glass, on either device, and what kind of functionality does that unlock? And I think it'll benefit both." "To be more specific, we have Wii U in development now [for Madden], we'll learn from it and it'll take us further in terms of delivering on the SmartGlass," Weber added.

It better be because I used to play the real Madden on Gamecube. What a huge drop off on the Wii. I'll buy it on Wii U when it comes out if it's the real deal. Madden 13 looks decent.

I hope they get it back to being respectable on Wii U! HD Graphics and gameplay that we are accustomed to on the PS3/360.

I actually prefer M12 Wii to M12 360/PS3 because of the gameplay.

Basically, it's PS2 gameplay. And I have to agree with MiNiDiTkA here, in some aspects, Wii Madden is better than PS3/360. Fair play enabled in ranked matches is a huge boon. Personally, I prefer PS3 because I can't deal with the Wii's cartoon graphics and I don't really like the motion controls, but there are definite reasons to pick Wii.

Yeah the game is based on the ps2 engines which I like better. Also for those that don't want to use motion controls 12 has classic controller support.

Well the gameplay was definitely pretty good in that game! I just hated the cartoony graphics. BUT I did like the fact that on the Wii version they took time to create the difference in player size between a Lineman and the QB...a RB and WR looked the way they should as well.
