Can't watch the video at work, so the software is free and you just need to buy this stepper thing for $20. Sounds a bit too good to be true. Colour me impressed if it is right though.
EDIT no you will need to buy the "game" via eShop or retail.
Got my hopes up for some surprise Wii U releases this week with your headline bit of clarity re what's on the Wii U and what's on the 3DS would be better.
Wii U gets Mega, intergalactic pinball, AiRacing, gladiators and more
Confused here, will people who have already purchased Toki Tori 2 get the update for free or is the "Plus" version totally separate and a new purchase required? Thanks,
I'm quite liking it so far (I'm in UK it's out here today), online leaderboards are good, but I think they are only for career mode? be great if someone could clear that up. Sinalefa, you can customise loads in this game yes.
See Bit.Trip Runner 2 has 25% off (until 12th Sept) on the European eShop, did that start today? not seen it mentioned on here or anywhere else today. Great game for those that don't already own it.
In sunny Essex the Wii U eShop cards are on the shelves with the games, not on the rack, same with PS3 etc, rack space is saved for iTunes and Facebook stuffs.
I know, they didn't have that in store a little while ago though.
Guess they will be doing p'ex and taking the figures in exchange and selling them used too?
EDIT: p'ex answer is in the article doh.
Real shame about the "blindness" though, do however love the way you just place them on the gamepad rather the portal with Skylanders.
I see, took me an absolute age to try and log in here via IE (don't know if there's a problem) or I would have posted it sooner. Gave up in the end and used Chrome. I'm just impatient for news of the update, like most gamers
Trouble also with Wii U digital is if the machine goes pop so does all your digitial content with no way of getting it on your replacement machine.
And I think digital prices need to be at least a third cheaper than retail, due to no resale value etc. Though I'm probably in a minority of selling on my Wii U games when I'm done with them.
@Sonic_Phantom, know exactly what you mean, I wish Pilotwings, SMW, F-Zero etc were each a couple of quid cheaper, but can't see them being put on sale anytime soon. Think they would sell a lot more of them if they were £3.99 each or something.
Picked this up last week, think it's a great version with the Gamepad tweaks and some DLC already included, just hunting down the last of the security gates etc now. Top notch fun.

Re: Nintendo Download: 7th November (Europe)
So it's cheaper to buy both Toki Tori at £1.79 and Toki Tori 2+ at £5.19 than buy Toki Tori 2+ at the discountred price of £7.79
Re: Nintendo Download: 31st October (Europe)
Any idea when Wii Fit U will be up? wasn't at 7.30 this morning UK time.
Cheers.
Re: Shin'en Multimedia Announces FAST Racing NEO for the Wii U eShop
This should be great, love everything Shin-en put out, factor in online leaderboards and I'll be in heaven.

Re: Review: Escape From Zombie City (3DS eShop)
Thanks WinterWarm, will probably mean £3.99 over here which is right in the "worth a punt" bracket.
Re: Review: Escape From Zombie City (3DS eShop)
How much is this in the USA please.
Any idea of a European release date?
Thanks
Re: Snow Moto Racing 3D Slides Onto the 3DS eShop in North America on 17th October
Any idea of the EU release date please.
Maybe this time around the US will get the ropey version and EU will get the better updated one.
Re: Nintendo Download: 10th October (Europe)
Hot Wheels World's Best Drive (WB Games, €29.99 / £24.99)
Is this getting a physcial 3DS release do you know? shame the Wii U/PS3/360 reviews for the game are pretty awful.

@galetyler
I see thanks, good incentive to get "on board" early. No pun intended.

Typo in there Damo - Decemeber
Re: Weirdness: There's a Game of Thrones 8-Bit Game
Only took five days for you to mention this "game". Suggest you get your news from Eurogamer rather than Destructoid in the future.
Re: The Pokémon Company Brings Back Its "Gotta Catch 'Em All" Sweepstakes
US only
And they must have spent what a total of £1000 on prizes (plus the game codes) overall. Tight arses.

Re: The World's Most Scathing Video Game Critic May Be Warming To Wii U

Any idea when you'll have a TNT Racers review up Gents/Ladies?
Thanks,

Re: Review: Turbo: Super Stunt Squad (Wii U)
@mr570 thanks, so probably £29.99 over here. Sounds like it should have been a $15/£10 eShop release really.
Fingers crossed TNT Racers is a lot better.
Re: Review: Turbo: Super Stunt Squad (Wii U)
How much is this in USA please gents (Brit asking here)
Re: Review: Galaga (Wii U eShop / NES)
Such a shame Nintendo dont add online leaderboards to retro titles like this.

Re: Pokémon Rumble U Figurines and Special Edition Available From GAME in the UK
Is this in GAME stores today? wasn't in with the Wii U games 30 minutes when I called in.
Re: TNT Racers: Nitro Machines Edition Screeching into The Wii U eShop Next Month
Reckon this will have online leaderboards? am assuming the Wii version didn't.
Re: Nintendo Download: 8th August (Europe)
Galaga for me. Didnt realise it was out this week.
Re: Nintendo Download: 1st August (Europe)
Anyone tried Wii U Cloudberry Kingdom yet or seen any impressions anywhere?
Cheers
Re: First Impressions: DuckTales Remastered
@belmont
Just get one of these cards from Game or Tesco etc, works fine on Wii U eShop, assuming you're in the UK of course

Don't knock it, they do put out some quality stuff, heck I even enjoyed their golf game - though realise I may have been the only one....

Re: Nintendo Download: 4th July (Europe)
@Sonic_Phantom, know exactly what you mean, I wish Pilotwings, SMW, F-Zero etc were each a couple of quid cheaper, but can't see them being put on sale anytime soon. Think they would sell a lot more of them if they were £3.99 each or something.
Re: Review: Need for Speed: Most Wanted U (Wii U)
Picked this up last week, think it's a great version with the Gamepad tweaks and some DLC already included, just hunting down the last of the security gates etc now.
Top notch fun.
Re: Nintendo Download: 27th June (Europe)
F1 Racestars has been delayed and won't be out this week after all

Re: Nintendo Download: 27th June (Europe)
No SNES PilotWings like they're getting in the USA this week
Fingers crossed we get it soon.
No Wii U download sale prices either. Sad face.
Re: Nintendo Download: 20th June (North America)
See you guys are getting SNES Pilot Wings this week, not sure what else, hope PW makes it to the Europe store too.
Re: Nintendo Download: 20th June (Europe)
Is there any news on what's due to hit the Wii U eShop this Thursday yet?
Thanks.
Re: Nintendo Download: 13th June (Europe)
Newbie question, what time does the eShop normally update on a Thursday?
I'm in the UK.
Thanks,
Re: Feature: What We Expect From Nintendo's E3 Direct
Would love a new Pilot Wings title but I guess that's not on the radar at present.
