Re: Wii Mini Is Official And Has No Online Connectivity

Lunapplebloom

I love the design. Makes it look really nice and high tech, though it is anything but high tech. No online is a real bummer for anyone maybe wanting it for Netflix as well, and no VC support is really just pointless to do. The redeeming factor in all of this is that Red Wii Remote and Nunchuck combo. I would want it just for that.

Oh well, back to my Wii U.

Re: Wii U Shifts 400K Units in Début Week

Lunapplebloom

I've only seen a couple of Wii U Basic sets around everywhere I've gone. To me that shows that it's pretty good on demand, for the Deluxe sets anyways. We'll just have to wait and see for now, but I was hoping for a larger number for that sale period.

Re: Wii U Can be Used as a Portable Home Console

Lunapplebloom

As soon as I heard that you could operate it entirely from the gamepad, I knew something like this could be possible. I myself have already tried it, and it's not that difficult to set up. Probably took me less than a minute, just plug in the power and done.

Re: Review: Tekken Tag Tournament 2 (Wii U)

Lunapplebloom

I've never been a fan of Tekken, until I played Street Fighter X Tekken. That was the perfect game to get me interested in the series, so I'll be picking this one up eventually. And you gotta love those Nintendo costumes.

Re: Feature: Shigeru Miyamoto - The Father of Modern Video Games

Lunapplebloom

This guy is the best of the best. He was responsible for all the great games I have played in the past and continue to play to this day. All I can say is thank you, Miyamoto. And may you continue to make games for more years to come.

One must say though that I hope he has been training the young developers well there at Nintendo HQ. They are the people who must carry the torch once he's no longer there.

Re: Wii U Kiosks Will Allow Gamers To Try Before They Buy

Lunapplebloom

Good that this news is circulating. I still believe it's still is only Rayman Legends that's available to play at the moment. Though at Target all they had was just the videos and no demos whatsoever. Still already have my system down for pre-order, but it was fun to test it out no less. Just picked up some accessories for it at Best Buy as well yesterday.

Re: Movie Review: Professor Layton and the Eternal Diva

Lunapplebloom

Loved this one. It fit pretty well with the games, while trying to put create it's own feel. Only downside is that I didn't like the UK voice actors as much as the US ones, but that's because I'm used to them.
Good review @KneehighPark.

And Welcome to NL @HuntheUniverse. Enjoy your stay.

Re: GameStop Kids Store Launches, 80 More Planned

Lunapplebloom

Big thumbs up for this move. I love the idea of wandering down an Ilse without all of the gnarly and gruff things going on all over. A decent concept that helps to keep kids from that sort of thing is awesome in my book. And collectibles are a big plus on the side. I want some Pikmin plushies when Pikmin 3 comes out.

Re: Review: Style Savvy: Trendsetters (3DS)

Lunapplebloom

I got my sister the original game on the DS when it came out a couple years ago, and she rather enjoyed that one. I had this one on my radar for quite some time and was going to get it, but it's nice to see that it got a good score.

Re: Talking Point: Affordable Consoles Come at a Cost

Lunapplebloom

Communism is the name of the game, alright. The Government has no concern for the people in the country, only for the leaders. And that trickles down to Foxconns work ethics as well. They don't care how tired and worn out there workforce is, as long as they get the job done.

It's a sad state of affairs alright, but I don't see how I can do anything to stop it. There would have to be a massive boycotting in response to it, and I just can't see that happening. This doesn't change my decision to buy the console, but it does leave a sour taste in my mouth over it. I don't condone what Foxconn has done, and Nintendo should be held accountable to a certain extent, but I just can't change to not purchasing because of that. I just hope that someday it will change.

Re: Under-Age Workers Allegedly Worked on Wii U Manufacturing

Lunapplebloom

Sadly, we hardly ever think about this, but we really should. These kids are being pushed into this slave labor sort of mold, and they end up paying for it with their health. It's a situation that you are damned if you do, and damned if you don't. Now that is certainly appalling. And great job on summing it up @Shworange

I wouldn't mind trying to save up a bit more for any type of electronic device, if it meant that both kids and adults were treated fairly at these factories, or if they were produced somewhere else.

Re: Guess What? Michael Pachter Isn't a Fan of The Wii U

Lunapplebloom

Don't forget it's other features Pachter, such as it's motion control, playing things exclusively on the controller screen with it's built in speakers, and it's panorama type viewing system.

But in all honesty, what he says could happen, but he's been wrong so many times that he can't be trusted.

Re: Review: Cave Story (3DS eShop)

Lunapplebloom

I'm in no rush to get this one. I already got the 3D retail version before this was announced. I'll never say never, but for now I don't need another Cave Story game.

And find something else to do now Nicalis. We've been over saturated in this game. Not that it's a bad thing, but to much of a good thing can be bad.

Re: Review: Hotel Transylvania (3DS)

Lunapplebloom

@Bluewind098 I was that way as well. Now is as good a time as any. See you around the site. (and brohoof)

Also just read the text picture on the front page, Great Hotel California reference Chicken.

Re: Review: Hotel Transylvania (3DS)

Lunapplebloom

Wayforward was making this? I never saw this game coming until now. Since it was them making it, I thought maybe it could have been like Thor was to me, surprisingly fun. Guess I'll have to pass.

@Bluewind098 I notice your new here, so welcome to Nintendolife! Have a nice stay.

Re: Sony: Wii U is Targeting "Niche Early Adopter Market" This Holiday

Lunapplebloom

I didn't even know about a redesigned PS3 until now. The Wii U appears to be on a healthy start with all of those preorders being made. And instead of Sony trying to cater to a particular audience by releasing a new system, they should focus there energy on not letting the PSVita fail. This shall be an interesting year for both Nintendo and Sony.
