@StrawHatChopper Thanks for the tip

I got the first one and although I like it, I didn't/can't really play it. It's all the little issues that add up to a game that is just not that fun to play.
I do wish this game success; I'm afraid it just isn't for me.

Trine 2 is currently on sale for $10 in NA until the end of April. Not sure about other regions.

It's a great looking game, it really shows off the HD on the Wii U.

I have DS/DSiWare games like this, but I got this one so I can use the 3DS's features. If DS/DSiWare games could be suspended and still get playcoins and street/spotpassed I wouldn't have bought this one.

That's a hefty fee for small developers.
Maybe there should be a 'sliding scale' based on the value of the companies (a small indie business pays less than a large corporation).

Sounds good to me
I hope the MP is download play.

I saw the price at 50% off, so I grabbed this up.
I read this review when it released, so I knew it would fall in the 'average' category.
I've only played a tiny bit, but the $4.99 price-tag is good for this download.

I forgot that the combat is turn based so I was trying to move and mashing buttons! XD

edit: I have played a bit more and I like it I really think that this is actually supposed to be played in small chunks. I only play for a few minutes at a time (a mission or two).

Sounds like fun

This is a great game
I liked it so much back in the day that I got Sakura Samurai because they play/control similarly.

The 'follow' feature will be a nice addition.

And I also hope some of the bugs are fixed.

I'd guess they're the charging kind because they have the little 'bump' lever on the bottom that pushes the wire contacts out of the back of the cradle.
Would totally love Club N to offer these in NA (for a reasonable amount of coins, not tooooo many ). I would like to get a red (or green) one for my red XL.

Looking forward to this. Thanks for the interview you guys

It's too bad a few of the Wii U games haven't been releasing throughout the launch window. I guess it's good to get the games, even if all at once (after a dry spell, no less). I'm not as worried about the 3DS, it has already recovered from a tepid launch (I'm still hoping the Wii U blasts-off soon).

a horror themed FPS from RK?... sign me up!

50 Classic Games 3D is in the eShop for $4.99, seems like a decent price for it.

I would rather see a game like FEZ on the Wii U than the 3DS anyhow.

I'd be ready for an Eternal Darkness remake or sequel to play on the 3DS or Wii U in a heartbeat!

Does the 'Master Sword' become the 'Mistress Sword'?

I canceled my preorder because it was delayed and got the eShop download instead. I've played +100hrs already and am only on chapter 20 (there are a lot of extras! ).

I might try out this DLC whenever I'm finally done with the main story.
I finally connected to a MP match (and got a decent score for my first try) and my Wii U froze and sounded the 'Horn of Death'!

I wonder if NFC could be used to have small games/VC on a card/figure?
I can imagine a figure of Mario with SML embedded in NFC. Or a card that has a NFC minigame or demo to promote an upcoming release.
I think if NFC could be used like this, they could make really neat items/rewards for Club Nintendo.
.

ETA: This could also apply to retail or special Club AR Cards.

The Guild titles are perfect for the eShop. I hope that all three games from series2 make it to NA/EU.

I didn't know this was getting a digital release, so when I saw it in the eShop yesterday (and at the right price) I purchased on impulse.

@longtimegamer - I think the download was a little over 4k blocks.

The career/puzzle mode sounds neat. I figured this was just going to be a sandbox game.

Nice review

@UnrealDan : Open system settings, in there is an update button (go right, or select the small icon that's second from the right) and perform update.

I hope this will fix the "horn of death" (freezing issue).
I've had NintendoLand, Assassins Creed 3, ZombiU and Miiverse freeze up randomly since launch.
I was especially mad when it froze while I was playing multiplayer AC3 last night.

I'd wager that the failed resellers didn't buy any games since they aren't opening the boxes. That could be a small reason for low software sales.
I would argue that the purchases that were made to 'real' customers will be people that are actually playing the Wii U, not a schemer with a console box hoping for a supply shortage (and a quick profit).

This game is a lot of fun
One thing I like about PD2 over the DSiWare version is that it's nice to be able to play straight off the SDcard.
(I've run out of system memory long ago and dislike swapping games back and forth between SD/sysmem.)

And to that I say "pfft"... Also, what @GazPlant said.

This game was one of the launch titles that helped me decide to get a Wii U, but all the reviews and delays have made me lose interest in it...

No mention was made, but did they ask about a Wii U version specifically? Off to read the linked articles...

edit: They said the engine is designed for 'this gen, next gen and next next gen' and will have a mobile release. I'd guess it could release on the Wii U without much effort...
The game sounds interesting, but I'm not sure it's ten years (the planned length) interesting.

@Djrr-ific I thought it was too. I might have mixed the Japanese title up with that Dot Runner game though.

5 of the 6 games I have on the Wii U are 3rd party discs or indie DLs, the one game that isn't is the NintendoLand disc that came bundled. The next few games I'm planning on buying (when they get released) are all 3rd party.

Nice interview. Sounds like good use of the gamepad, I definitely will have to get this game.

People worried about the DLC: I bet that the DLC will be released as... well, DLC.

I don't see anything wrong with these changes; child safety, cutting back on spamming and less home button notifications are good things IMO.

I still like getting 'boxed' games, but there are some download only titles I just couldn't pass up.

It'll be interesting to see how this turns out.

I watched a video of the gameplay on another system and judging it on that I am looking forward to the Wii U release.

If they're planning to kill the 3DS and Wii U this early in their respective cycles, I think I'd just stop playing video games altogether.

Sounds like Nintendo has a plan.

The Wii U's CPU might be 'weaker' than the upcoming PSBOXes, but I bet they will not be the powerhouses that everyone thinks they will be. I'm guessing that the systems' architecture will be similar enough to get some decent ports. The small ammount of info leaked about next PS sounds a lot like Wii U (ie. social aspect, posting screenshots, touchpad on controller), so Nintendo is once again doing the trendsetting.

I got stuck in the wall on opening the door to the supermarket; I couldn't move or hit anything, but enemies could hit me.

From the article: "in future hardware"...
I hope they aren't going to cut the 3DS & Wii U cycles short.

In a fictional world (video games) we really only need fictional weaponry. I never even thought about the gun names in GoldenEye 007 not being "real", I was having too much fun playing the game.

edit: the linked article provides food for thought about the advertising in games aimed towards young, potential, firearms buyers.

@Five-seveN Thanks
That's what I was hoping it'd be like, not a CoD run and gun sniper edition.

So this is a sniper simulation? I'll give it a shot if it's not too actiony.

The only glitch/crash I've experienced was at the train engine boss, I had to hard reset the system.

I'm not a pokemon fan but I kinda like it... I think the black XL is really nice looking and it's pretty cool how the picture wraps to the back.

Love these retro articles.
All my G&Ws still work after all these years.
Even to this day I use Octopus as a backup clock, just in case the power goes out.

When I watched the Direct video I understood it as .30 for a month then 1.00 to keep it after the promo period.
Now I know I keep it for .30, thanks for clearing it up.
The way I look at the .30 pricing is: I used to play games at an arcade for .25 and had to 'buy' more plays for .25 at the game over screen, so the .30 price is awesome!

Nice!
Online and Download Play? That's how all 3DS MP games should be!
