Totally disagree with this overly negative review. I discovered this game a couple of years ago and it is loads of fun. Looking forward to getting the arcade version!
My first FIFA was on Vita and ended up getting an XBOX One in order to play the latest version online. Having a portable version is very tempting and it looks like EA did a good job of bringing FIFA to the Switch. Looks like I'll be getting two versions of FIFA 18.
I still have Twilight Princess, Skyward Sword, Metroid Prime Trilogy and Xenoblade in my backlog. But I'm much more a platformer fan so I am excited to try Rayman Legends, NSMBU/NSLU, Mario 3D World and DK Tropical Freeze. Plus, I can now play Wii games on the gamepad (plus a controller - I know), so I think it will be easier for me to get through my backlog since my family doesn't like me hogging the t.v.
I had been on the fence until the announcement of the Mario bundle. I just ordered mine from Best Buy. I was going to wait until Black Friday but I fear that the Mario bundle will be the first to sell out. Plus the BF deals on Wii U look like they are only for the Skylanders bundle. Can't wait for my Mario bundle to arrive!!!
@Shadowkiller97 I also found the ad. If you look carefully, it is only Scribblenauts for $24.99. I had to take a second look before I realized that. Tricky buggers!
Do the graphics look like pixelated vomit? Yes. Did I immediately pass over this game on the Genesis gold collection disc I have for my PC? Yep (along with some of the other garbage - here's looking at you Virtua Fighter 2). However, I watched a couple of YouTube reviews where Sega junkies and fanatics lauded its ingenuity. I gave it another shot and, to my utter delight, I can proudly declare that it is indeed an overlooked gem. It took me a little bit to discover its creative genius, but now I am hooked. It's one of those games that, once you give it a chance and look beyond its grotesque graphics, reveals itself and its magical glory. Definitely a solid 8/10.
Already have Super Metroid. Super Mario for me (even though I have the cart somewhere). I figure I need to spend my coins on something before they expire. I've been waiting forever for Ocarina or ALTTP! Waiting in vain, I guess.

Re: Nintendo Download: 7th November (North America)
why does Wikipedia list Super Mario 3 as a VC download for today on the WiiU?

Re: The Big Wii U Survey
In addition to playing Wii and VC games on the gamepad, it would also be cool to play 3ds games on the gamepad!!!
