Nintendo Wii U Capture Card?

Post by Gam3rsmedia » Sun May 12, 2013 6:05 pm

I saw a few videos and wondered is it possible to record game play from a Wii U Gamepad? I just wondered if you have considered it.

Yes, it is.

Wii U Gameplay can be captured with and HDMI Capture Card....
I don't see the point of this.

How about Nintendo Land and Rayman Legends?
The main focus there is the Wii U GamePad.

Maybe the point is so people can record things that are only shown on the Wii U Gamepad and have it shown with the normal Wii U screen?

I think a Wii U capture card will be unnecessary soon.

I think it's grabbing the Wii U video stream with an off-the-shelf 802.11n wireless card.

the problem i see with the video is that it looks as though its either the WiiU gamepad or the PC screen.
I would like to use the gamepad but have the image that is displayed on it also displayed on the PC so i can stream it, much like your DS/3DS mods.

as for clue 2 i havent really any idea whats its talking about enough to understand how this will help me stream the image from the WiiU gamepad

Wonder what they'll do about the gyroscope since games like Nintendoland uses it.
