I didn't like what I saw overall. Although there is some gameplay where I did like, it didn't feel like a Sonic game on that particular gameplay.

I hope that's physical copies alone.

The digital event can't come soon enough. Sigh...

What? MK8 just launched and we have MKX now?
Yeah I'm beginning to hate WB.

Thanks. I might get Advance Warfare then since it's different from a typical COD or shooter.

To those who played previous CODs on Wii U, can you play with remote+ nunchuk? I've only played FPSs on mouse+keyboard and I can't stand playing with a gamepad/controller. I liked metroid prime trilogy with remote+nunchuk.

@Subie98
True I've missed a lot. I've only played Famicom back in the late 80s, a bit of SNES, more mega drive and a lot of PlayStation 1. I just came back to console gaming late last year and I chose the Wii U over the PS4. Reasons are: I can play Wii games, old Nintendo games through virtual console, and I have a kid so local multiplayer is what sealed my decision to get the Wii U.

I'm playing catch up and there are so many Wii games on my must-buy list. the others I'm still waiting to be released on Wii U VC since I'm in no hurry to get them on Wii VC.

I didn't know there was a console war back then. My friends and I played both systems then moved on to PlayStation 1. After that we went all PC gaming. We haven't touched PS2, PS3, N64, GC and the Sega consoles after the megadrive (aka Genesis).

I still prefer the last episode over this one. It's hard to topple Tom's performance.

@ThomasBW84
Ah nice. Thanks! I joined while ago and there's no one I think. I might join another time so knowing I won't need to input the code again is a plus.

I was thinking of getting a wii controller pro for VC games on Wii mode. Maybe I'll hold on a bit. I hope N64 and GC games will come to Wii U.

Is there an option to save or add codes to a list or in favorites in game? Or we need to input the code every time?

@Damo
Why didn't you throw the blue shell on Tom? I thought you came back to get and throw it.

Well I'm not picking up the LE I pre-ordered at GameStop day 1. After thoroughly thinking, I don't really like the blue shell figurine. Plus with DLCs likely to come, I'd rather have it all in one place digitally.

Personally I dislike the dashing animation. I'd still like to see the character with a bit of energy and blurry animation. Not to be engulf completely with energy. Plus don't you think it's too over powered? Just shoot and dash. I have a feeling it will get boring quickly.

But this one is way better looking than any Rockman I've played. The enemies are pretty detailed too. I love that one on the ceiling that shot Beck with a rocket.

I'll eventually get the smash 3ds version. I'm just waiting for the 2d metroid and the 3ds xl metroid edition.

@jjmesa16
Yes. I've asked the same thing before. It shows what you can see on the TV according to Damo. I haven't tried yet but I've played a few race this morning. (I was too sleepy to wait for the download last night.)

@ThomasBW84
Is there anyway to play on wiimote using the DPad ONLY for steering? I personally prefer the DPad on the gamepad and pro controller. I rarely use the sticks except for scrolling down menus on eshop/webpage.

Yep this will be my free game with MK8. I'd be playing off-tv at night so this would be great using the gamepad.

LOL

@Collinhall
Long story but I will explain it briefly.

With Nintendo Network ID already in place, I have reason to believe that digital purchases will carry on to the next Nintendo console after the Wii U if you register the same NNID. I don't want to have paid DLCs by then and won't have the base game on next gen (or the gen after). I will be forced to pay for the base game again to enjoy the DLCs. Assuming it won't be backwards disc compatible or if I ever lose my physical copy.

It doesn't mean I will completely abandon physical discs. For games that are "complete" (DLCs included), I will still buy them physically like SMBU+SMLU, SM3DW, DKTF, LoZ:Windwaker HD, and others as I can still play them on other Wii Us without needing to buy the DLCs again for a complete experience.

This is why I'm getting Pikmin 3 as the bonus digital download for MK8 because it has paid DLCs. It might carry on the next gen console.

I am looking forward to this game. I've never touched a sonic game since playing them on the Sega megadrive until the demo on the Wii U. I didn't like it so I hope this one will be good.

I live/work in Italy. Can I have a Ferrari DLC?

That's all I need to know. I'm going digital with MK8. Sorry GameStop, I won't be picking my LE pre-order tomorrow.
Thanks to NL and @babyguess.

Nah. I'd rather see another mashup game which is not Kart racing or fighting. Anyone played Konami's World on Famicom or NES? I'd like to see one for Nintendo. MAYBE a MMO RPG.

@ThomasBW84
So only for those who gets the game before release day? I'd be picking up my LE copy Friday afternoon.

And it's not enough reason for me to go digital. Tell me something like DLCs will come (free or not) or we get mario kart for N64 VC and GBA VC for free upon release then I'd go digital.

I should have bought that 42 euro sale in Amazon France. I heard some French players got their copies since Monday.

They could have just notified security or the head of the press office prior or upon delivery about their plan.

@Dezzy
I know. It's jus a wishful thinking. I'm still holding on from buying it on Wii Shop VC and waiting for the Wii U VC.

I just hope majora's mask will get an HD remake instead of 3D

I would love to see ocarina of time and majora's mask on Wii U. HD remake or VC.

Cool game. I might get this. It feels like a super Mario 3d tetris world mini game.

@SanderEvers
You forgot the Amazon Germany's Steelbook edition. xD

I don't like the color, if its a bit darker then maybe I'd get one.. If it's green, then I'll gladly get one for my son.

People who are complaining on this issue doesn't know what they're complaining about. Or at least doesn't have any idea what copyright is.

I agree with a mad Australian. I'm still waiting for the WiiU Sega VC to take advantage of the NNP promo instead of getting it on Wii mode

BTW, is this the version where you can spam the flying knee attack or was it DD3?.

@Dazza
I need to know if there will be DLCs before friday afternoon.

Did you guys left something out on the interview? Like maybe, will there be DLC? Or that's everything in it?

(I'd go digital if there will be.)

@Lunapplebloom
Haha fail.

I guess this game is where Miyamoto got the idea of Pikmin from.

Edit:
Fail, it's the other way around

Wow these MM GB games have good reviews. Too bad I only have Wii U. I'm not tempted to get a3DS yet.

I voted Olimar for the humor.

@Beta
Go for City if you ask me. It's made by rocksteady who also made arkham asylum and the upcoming arkham knight. Plus it's a complete game with all DLCs included. Origins is a prequel made by WB Montreal if I'm not mistaken and you are missing some DLCs which isn't released on the Wii U. Plus they said it was buggy.

( I've only played Arkham Asylum)

Watch the credits? I bought it but played a few minutes.
I'll quit PC gaming at the end of this month so I can finally play with my kid more on our Wii U. Backlog is too damn high.

@AyeHaley
Arkham city is just 8 pounds on amazon UK.

@bouncer0304
MK8 was 42 euros the other week on amazon France. I was tempted for a minute. It's now back to 50.

Arkham City is tempting. But I want Arkham Asylum and Knight also on Wii U if I have to buy it. So maybe.

I'm on the brink of getting MK8 on eshop instead of that limited edition I pre-ordered.. Just one more reason before Friday. Convince me on going digital NLifers. Decisions decisions...

Edit:
Arkham City is just 8 pounds on amazon UK so I'll pass.

@madman1983
This article.

Why not free DLCs? at least for those who register before February 1 2015.

I'm really thinking of getting MK8 on eshop now instead of physical. Especially if there will be DLCs.

Don't hate Digital Foundry. They're just doing the FPS/res test just like they do on other games if I'm not mistaken. But this would be something to joke or laugh about on ps4one articles and would be sensationalized by some gaming sites.

I guess that's why we didn't get a second screen multiplayer on the gamepad. The hardware were pushed to it's limits. Maybe it's still possible but in lower resolution or frame rate. And Nintendo decided not to do it to give us the best experience possible.

Still waiting for MMV and MMX3 on EUWiiUVC...

@PS4
Yeah I forgot to mention that. Even amazon Canada sells it but I'm in Europe.

I want that Mario wii wheel so bad along with the Luigi one. Too bad it's only available on bundle and in Nintendo UK store.

Anyway, anyone knows if the Luigi remote matches that of the Madagaskartz Wii wheel?
