The Official Wii U thread V.1.1 - Sun Sets on Wii U, Switch Over In March

I wouldn’t take the opinion of a guy whose job is to be an over critical douche very seriously. ZP’s whole schtick is to find the faults in a game, any game, and then harp on them endlessly. His job is to complain. It’s very funny and a good show, but hardly a building block to stand on when talking about weather a game is good or not. You need more then the rantings of a raving mad man. I sure as shit wouldn’t use him as proof there is lag in the Wii Motion Plus especially after I made the delcaration that it is in fact there. No one else seems to experience this problem. If all you have is anecdotal evidence then don’t declare it as a fact. Need more then “ZP said so!” “I’m sensitive to lag” doesn’t count either because lots of people are, yet no one else has said as much. It’s probably your TV and not the remote.

I also just finished this last night and I think it’s great. One of the few games that makes me glad we purchased a Wii (it, Madworld and Skyward Sword). I plan on starting my NG+ in the next few days. Remixed NG+ is the correct way to do this kind of mode.

I doubt people realise how important zelda wii u is going to be

I’ve never gotten around to beating a Zelda game before. This WiiU one might be the first. Maybe.

You didn’t get around to streaming saturday either. :lol:

I streamed for an hour and a half! :mad:

I was on twitch instead of own3d last time. If you check my twitch, you’ll probably see it in the archive list.

Rayman Legends - Castle Rock Gameplay Trailer

Whoa Black Betty! Exclusive to IGN right now but I’m sure someone will put it on youtube at some point.

Trine 2 Director’s cut - skills walkthrough

Looks like Japan will be holding their conference at 3 AM EDT ahead of everyone else

NOA will be doing theirs at 10AM EDT in New York and NOE will be having their conference at the same time around 4 PM CET

I won’t be able to watch it myself since I’ll be at work but I imagine I should be able to at least hear about everything.

Looks like Razor’s Edge is going to have Ayane along with her own set of missions

No telling yet if all of Team Ninja’s changes have ‘fixed’ their game.

Not a fan of NG3 and I don’t see the game getting that much better but if they add more content I’ll definitely consider buying it again especially if the Wii U’s launch games are lacking.

Japan is going to have a second Direct conference tomorrow at 11pm over there…10 AM EDT soooo pretty much the some time that NOA and NOE will be having their first conference.

This one is going to be more focused on 1st and 3rd party software. I’m going to keep expectations low on any surprises but I certainly wouldn’t mind at least one. I’m hoping more P-100 gets shown too.

Edit: Kind starting to get jelly over the fact that I’m working tomorrow morning…

This is basically Nintendo’s worldwide TGS a week before TGS. Get hyped!

Just a reminder that Kirby’s Dream Collection will be out this Sunday.

I’m a bit Kirby’d out at the moment. I just knocked Epic Yarn out of the backlog, and still need to do the same of RTDL.

On another note, Canvas Curse 2 for U would be shhweet!

I can’t get over the depth of Wii U’s launch season lineup. Games just keep rising and falling on my wanted list but always well on the radar regardless of rank.

I was about ready to just skip another AC but this might be the one I finally get.

P100 is the one that remains at the top though.

Reggie put up a little video in anticipation for this morning

I’m still trying to decide if I want to stay up to watch Japan’s Direct or not…decisions decisions…I probably won’t since most of the games will be at 10 in the morning.

I like Reggie. I got no problem with him at all.

But I wish Conan O’Brien was Nintendo’s spokesman.

Decided to stay awake for the Wii U news. Here is some notable stuff

2GBs ram
25GB discs
Two separate Wii U bundles in Japan. One having 8GB hard drive, the other a 32 gig
8 gig basic model will cost 26250 yen, the 32 gig model 31,500. More expensive one comes with HDMI cable and cradles to charge Wii U Pad
Wii U Pro pad (360 looking things) costs 5040 yen
Wii U Pads cost 13440 yen (YO WTF NINTENDO THIS ISH EXPENSIVE)
Launching December 8th in Japan

Yeah…I’d say I’m surprised at that Wii U Pad price but Nintendo said they were expensive to make even with them trying to make them as affordable as possible. These are replacement pads though so long as your kids, pets, drunken friends, or natural disasters don’t fuck up the one you get in the box then all is good. Granted if this does happen though, at least 3 of the 4 can be stuffed in a trunk and driven off a cliff. It also looks like Nintendo is going Sony’s route with online which I can dig. They’re giving people an option to pay a premium online and get money off of purchases.

The conversion of the yen prices for the bundles into dollars $337 and $405…so I’m starting to more believe that amazon rumor now. Come on NOA…give us some nice bundles.

The Wii U conference is starting soon: http://www.nintendo.com/wiiu?om_rid=AAAod7&om_mid=_BQUJHeB8t6NEIR
