@SanderEvers I think the game pad is to gimmicky. It's OK if you can play the full wii u game on it rather than the tv but not many games allow you to do this. And any way why wait all this time for the wii u and pay inflated prices for the games so that we can play them in HD and then don't.

Nintendo should separate the Wii U controller from the Wii U. Use the pro controller for good WII U games and keep the game pad controller for downloadable new and retro games.

Maybe there should have been a non 3d version on the same card, so we could play it on the lower screen, as well.

For £8 this suggests that it was never going to a full price game release. Or maybe it was, and Nintendo also thought that the game play on a 3d screen was not up to a stylus game standard.

Maybe 3d and stylus game play just don't work, unless Nintendo come up with a 3d touch screen.

I have also noticed that because Nintendo have linked with the game, other outlets don't bother getting new Nintendo games out into the shops for release date.

The Game is the most expensive shop or on line store for 3ds games.

@MickeyTheGreat I agree. That would make me buy a wii u.

@Five-seveN yes it's true.

Having to replay missions all over again, three or four or five times just to get back to the end boss is a minus and I would only give it a seven or seven and half score. It is very frustrating, and that is not good in a game, an extra save point would have been good.

Regarding downloads, my original 3ds was stolen but Nintendo would not let me redownload my ambassador games, I would never trust then again as far as game downloads are concerned.

@Zodiak12 The Game store is a nationwide business who just happens to have one store local to me. But they charge about £5.00 ($8) more for a 3ds game. Since I think that 3ds games are over priced anyway I am not going to pay any more than I have to.

I will not buy a download game, they are poor value because there is no trade in value. And I will not shop at the Game store because they over price their games. I bought Fire Emblem for £31.99 from Sainsbury online; the Game online store were charging £39.99.

It is interesting reading the multi format website reviews of Wii u games that have previously been released on playstation or xbox. The comments in general are that the Wii u controlled does not really add anything that would increase the score of add to the games play.

I have had my Wii u money sitting here since release date but I seem to have lost interest. It's not that I don't want a Wii u, but so far none of the games have interested me.
Nintendo seems to be a bit complacent. A new console, the first in six years and no killer game. Where is that killer game that gamers will buy the console, just to play it?

All the Wii u is, is a Wii with HD, which the Wii should have had anyway.
Also the new controller is not the big selling feature it was built up to be. We thought we could play ALL new games on it rather than on the tv screen; here in the UK Nintendo had to withdraw an advertisement because it was misleading, only a few games could be played on the controller.

Nintendo got the WII u launch wrong and this is the result. Super Mario Bros, is not a launch title, it's just another Super Mario bros game. Also the tv advertisements for Super Mario Bros was all about multi player fun. They can't sell enough Wii u's and they want us to buy extra controllers. If I had wanted to play Batman, Assassin's Creed etc. I could have bought a Playstation.

With a few new 3ds games soon to be released that will keep Nintendo fans content for a while longer; no need to consider the Wii u. Even a Wii u Luigi's mansion rather than a 3ds version would have sold more Wii u's.

I can also play plenty of cheap but good games on my Android tablet. Nintendo's new controller can't compete with that.

If Nintendo want my Wii U money they have to convince me to buy it and a remake of Windwaker will not do it.

The Castlevania reviews were enough for me to NOT purchase the game. It sounded like to much button bashing and to many bosses and not enough adventure.
Having said that I think Mario Sticker Star should have got a higher score.

I purchased Hyroventure because of the good reviews, but I feel that it was a waste of money. The idea of the game was good, but turning the 3ds 360 degrees was not good. A gimmick that did not work well. My score 4.

I have created a web site to express my disappointment and concern about how I was treated by Nintendo UK and Nintendo of Europe. Disappointment because as a loyal Nintendo customer I was not allowed to re-download my ambassador games to my new 3ds after my original 3ds was stolen. And concern because Nintendo have refused to delete my personal information from the stolen console.

@Lomprayah you are right. I have the cash already to buy the wii u but was waiting for the Rayman release.

Game reviews have not encouraged me to buy a Wii u. It looks like the controller is gimmicky.

I have just played the new Rayman demo and although the graphics are very good the bits of the game that you play on the controller demonstrates the that it's just distracts from the main screen.

A download has no trade-in value, once you have played the game.

Here in the UK our two biggest game stores, Gamestation and Game are no longer selling new games.

Gamestation and Game have the same owner; because of financial problems Nintendo and others refused to supply new games to them, they went into administration last month. A few hundred of the stores closed and the rest have been bought by a new company. They remain open but are only selling pre-owned games. Once Nintendo and others come to an agreement with the new owners and start suppling new games again, sales may pick up.
