For those pining for an iPad, but in need of more transportability – welcome the iPad Mini. With the same 1024×768 resolution of the iPad 2, the 7.9″ screen of the iPad Mini can be held in one hand. Working universally with existing iPad Apps, the iPad Mini is powered by Apple’s A5 chip and features two cameras (one for FaceTime video chatting and the other for 1080p HD video recording and 5 megapixel stills). Available with wi-fi or a data plan, the iPad Mini is also the cheapest iPad ever – starting at $329 for the 16GB wi-fi model.

So basically, picture a mini iPad built within a stretched out Nintendo 64 controller. While the Wii focused on gameplay rather than graphics, the Wii U will retain the features of the Wii but also output a 1080p resolution. With additional features such as a second screen experience on the high tech controller, along with cameras and microphones – expect a lot of cool game features. It’s also backwards compatible with Wii controllers and software.
