They better hurry up adding stuff interesting to the wiiu eshop. I got nothing to do on this new machine. Feeling like I should of waited a year before I bought it.
Its ok looks a lot like the PS3 version which is super bad. The PS3 one crashes on just about every video I tried. The WiiU at least played all the ones I tried so far.
Wii games and wii virtual console games on my wii U. Plus downloading all the games the transfer missed from my sd card. Good to go now finally! Donkey Kong country returns looks awesome in 1080p up conversion. Seemed like all the games I tried so far look better they fit the screen better. Wii games that is virtual console is about the same I haven't tried any wiiwares yet. Earlier got some Mario Kart going on, and excite bike. I am loving Donkey Kong though can't believe I didn't spend more time with that before.
@Kirk I agree I been figuring out this puzzle/ maze of wires and stuff where it's all gonna go and look neat at the same time. Very cool system though I would not pass it up because of this, but it is a pain.
I got the demo on the PS3 sort of always wanted to buy it. Its a descent game I like to watch people play this one as well because of the colors. So I will get it for the wii U I am actually downloading it right now waiting.
Nintendo should have one account. Your nintendo club account linked to any nintendo gaming device you have, and any game you ever bought should be redownloadable on any nintendo device you purchase in the future in case you want to upgrade.
For a 100 more they should offer a system with 1 terra byte of memory "mechanical", plus a 32gig SSD for optimal operating system speed. The reason being is any add on is adding clutter.
I'm starting to think I should of went with the basic model. I like the white look and would of saved some money towards something better than nintendo land.
@cyphid I did to and seen that but when I went to go to check out it was the right price. I tried like you know what to get it for 299. I didn't see the basic set for sale there though.
It took me about a year to find a Wii at retail price after it was released. Thats why I preordered. Just incase. I would of preordered anyways I am pretty excited to check out the new system just gave me more a kick in the butt to get it over with, and not wait on Amazon.com to come through.
One thing I noticed about PS3 games is they will go WAY down in price even the exclusives. Even the new games don't take long to go down. Nintendo hold their value pretty well the first party ones. Until I go to sell one then all of a sudden the bottom drops out. I won't even buy a PS3 game if its more than 20 dollars its like burning money.
I pre ordered from Kmart U.S.A. No money down and I won't be charged till it's shipped can cancel anytime. So they say. I never bought anything like this from Kmart hope they come through.
I ordered the black deluxe. I think deep down I really wanted the white system but the black was just a better value when I wanted to have nintendo land. Newegg is charging 20 bucks just for that charging cradle. Plus it doesn't' hurt to have that premium account and a little extra storage.
Amazon is even listed as a retailer on the official Wii U site. They better get on board quickly or I will ban them for a year. Well for a little while anyhow.
I'm not concerned about storage space. No one should be that stuff will be dirt cheap in the future it is now. It would just add to the cost of the wii u. I am more concerned about what darn color I want. I'm tempted to go basic and buy the new Super Mario Bros.. I definitely want to check out nintendo land though but I have a feeling it will be a lot cheaper on the used market than Super Mario Bros. Hmmm... got a lot of time to figure it out unless they all sell out.
