Just downloaded Retro City Rampage! I went through the trouble of buying it through my Wii and then transferring it to my Wii U. Gotta earn those Club Nintendo coins ^_^
Hm, what? That sounds unnecessary. If you are a Monster Hunter fan and you already own a 3DS and a Wii U, wouldn't it be logical to buy the Wii U version so you can play online? I wonder what the LAN adapter accomplishes that the 3DS hardware cannot.
I'm a big Aliens fan, so I'll probably pick this up when it's cheap. I'm holding out that the Wii U version will be tweaked enough to make it a (more or less) enjoyable experience.
If KR2 was a retail release, I would feel safe renting it or waiting until it hit the bargain bin. The eShop price of $59.99 is completely unjustified. Maybe we'll see a price drop or sale in the future.
I'm used to the stripped down features in the Wii CODs, so it's not really a big deal. The other day I dusted off my copy of 'World at War' and played some online matches, it's still a lot of fun
Just kidding. It's an absolutely forgettable game, you have to be a pretty big Castlevania fan to put up with it. Every single attack is done by shaking the Wii remote; my wrist was in pain for a week after a few sessions of this game.
I'm just happy the technology is finally on par with PS3/360. If 3rd party developers are willing to port games like this, I can definitely see a future for the Wii U.
There are plenty of people that would disagree with you, including myself. However, the problem with MMOs is when you're paying a subscription fee, you feel less inclined to play other games. I've found myself saying "I'm paying for this right now wether I play it or not, so I better be playing it". Then again, some MMOs are so much fun, the price is completely justified.
I don't get it, people have been waiting for a solid online experience for the Wii for as long as I can remember. But when the single player mode is dropped, everybody jumps ship?
No point in arguing I guess, but it's going to be awfully lonely playing online with people who, actually, want to pay for the full experience.
