@TysonQ7 Well, recently, yes. I've managed to be excited for the Wii and every handheld (even somewhat excited for the XL DS's), but not the Wii U. I mean, it's certainly really innovative, and I've demoed one at a Best Buy, but I'm just not excited...
It's not that I don't think the Wii U looks amazing, but Nintendo ultimately failed to entice me as a consumer. There's no killer app that could possibly justify my buying the Wii U on launch day. There are better games than the 3DS launch, but everything just seems kind of... lacklustre to me with the exception of ZombiU. Nintendo couldn't even get me excited with their own first party titles. That being said, I'm sure the Wii U will be great, but Nintendo's failure to get me to want to buy it as soon as possible has ensured it will be at least a year until I buy one. I wanted to be excited for this, but I'm not.
I thankfully heard about this when I got stuck in the PEC room and looked up what to do online. All of the results were about this save bug, and they saved me from having my game corrupted. I think this is the one time where cheating and looking up what to do online would have paid off, as I would have probably saved in that room.
I preordered it on the one day it was previously available! But I wish they would have let you choose the color. Still, awesome preorder bonus, I wish other companies would take note of this.
Thanks Nintendo for not pulling a PS Vita on o=us and making us pay 100 dollars for some 32 gigabytes of proprietary memory that's useless outside of the system!
@TheDreamingHawk I don't think it's a typo, I just think that it used European dates. They put the day before the month. For example, today, August 25 would be written 25/8. Nano Assault did the same thing.
If I live close to a Gamestop that has it, I'll get it. I caught em all and stopped caring about Pokemon about a year ago, but I still need the event legendaries for Black/White...
I scrapped up 900 coins for this and now I am fresh out! The lowered values on some of the games took a toll on the amount of coins I'd have otherwise. Here's to a bountiful harvest of more games soon and thus more coins!
I'm not buying Giants so I can avoid that hit to the wallet. Collecting every original Skylander was a fun experience, but it's a one time thing. It doesn't really look like there's really much different here from the original gameplay wise. I still might buy a few figures that look nice just to put on my shelf though.
I don't have any more room for posters... so the cards, I guess. But I'm disappointed, the past three rewards looked nice on display on my dresser... the posters look nice, but I already have all 4 of the other poster sets...
It's nice to see they can put price drops on third party software. I bought VVVVVV the day it hit America, but hopefully more people will download it now and experience its greatness. For me, I'll get Bomb Monkey and possibly Marvel Pinball. A very good week, well done NoA.
I loved it when they shewed off the 3DS games. It was the first timenI found out all the E3 news by watching the whole thing. 09, 10, and 11 were all very good E3s.
I've actually never played a Castlevania, I just don't like Metroidvania mazes. But if this game is a good mix of linear and mazelike gameplay, I'll be sure to try it out! If it's real, of course...
I'll be playing Skylanders. But I have a question for you guys. Should I buy Mario Tennis Open or a Classic Controller Pro so I can properly play Xenoblade? Because I can get one or the other, and I just can't play Xenoblade with the Wii Remote. But Mario Tennis Open looks decent...
