I own a WiiU and 6 games. Not one is a Mario game. Does your butt hurt Sony? At least you still have the Vita... Erm... Or something. Enjoy stale lifeless gaming from tge people who vrought you account hacks abd overhiked prices.
if they want to sell more they NEED to reduce the price of games. None of them are worth £50-£55. at this rate a ps4 game should be around £80. bu i cant see that. sony will sell games at £30-£40 and nintendo will be blaming something else for low sales.
My 3DS needs some new game love. Currently playing SM3DL but nearly 100% complete. Just a few more coins to find. I hope we are getting some games really soon other than the ones already announced. Hopefully a release date for Wonderfull 101 too.
I'm from England. Most gamers are PS360 gamers here and are not entirely stupid. for example; They wont buy COD on/or/and a WiiU if they can get the same game on a console they already own for MUCH cheaper. WiiU needs Nintendo exclusives, not 3rd party games. We have a lot of 3rd party games already. also... WiiU games are a ripoff in price. averaging £50 per game! It's only a small amount of time untill some great fun games will be out.,. Literally just one month.
anyway, I have contributed= English gamer: games I own= I bought ZombieU for £54(brilliant game), then Trine2 for £10.99(most fun game on WiiU) and Little Inferno for less than £7(genius game/fireplace/physics), and ZenPinball2 for free(thinking about buying the classic pack).
all talk of doom for wiiu yet the vita has totally flopped and is still not pounced upon in the same way. wtf? who are the developers in question anyway? Coz seriously, are these 3rd party titles really so great? not in my experience, they are normally just filler... super buggy, badly made, unfinished turds. I am happier without turds.
It's fine with me. We will get enough foreign languages as is in europe. I want to team with English people, noone else, no offense intended, I feel I relate more to my own territory and thus will enjoy online more.
I sure hope GTAV comes out on WiiU. 360 & ps3 are pretty much at the end of shelf life... WiiU is still a baby! It has so much more to offer. My money is waiting.
Platinum games are a great developer. Darksiders has never really appealed to me, even though I love Zelda games, don't know why... Maybe they can work some magic.
Wow, totally the best Nintendo Direct in a LONG TIME. Very pleased F-Zero will be 30p 'X' looks awesome! New Zelda! + old zelda remade! *crying tears of joy Bayonetta2 looks ambitious and cool. New 3D mario woohhoo! New yoshi game... Meh... MARIOKART U! =thank you (defo not buying sonic racing now)
Whatever hey decide to do, I hope they bring it to WiiU & 3DS and really make the consoles shine. They have earned a LOT of respect for this launch game. It would be wise of them to keep it.
As for the DLC for Trine2... I would buy it. Nearly finished goblin menace extras now.
As for Trine3... I can wait... this game will last a while, many routes and puzzles I skipped this time that I'd like to go back to. plus it's online and its really quite good!
This pretty much ensures EVERY wiiU owner plays this game. Very clever, and I am looking forward to the free tables, and if they are good I will buy more
Thankyou Ubisoft for making a great game, Everyone on Miiverse seems to love it too. Thank you for putting some real effort into this game... Sequel please!?
I got tnis game, its brilliant, very happy to be getting even better graphics, it looks stunning already. In game chat will rock, online works perfectly.
I dont see a problem. If you want it, you'll wait and download it. It's not like you can only play the game after 11pm. Only problem I see is that after that time, I am still unable to download r18 games. Its like it has totally locked me,out, cant even,view details. Stupid law but it keeps the kids away from the download. I used to live in Germany, nice place.

Re: Annoyed About Age Restrictions On The Euro Wii U eShop? Blame Germany
I dont see a problem. If you want it, you'll wait and download it. It's not like you can only play the game after 11pm. Only problem I see is that after that time, I am still unable to download r18 games. Its like it has totally locked me,out, cant even,view details.
Stupid law but it keeps the kids away from the download. I used to live in Germany, nice place.
