I don't have an Xbox but I assume they have similar parental controls to the WiiU, so the parents could have blocked out 18 rated games. Also like it has already been said, seems like the kid is pretty problematic.
Inevitable. If Android gaming really takes off I would consider buying one of those or a home console equivalent, alongside Nintendo products mind you!
@Peach64 Oh yeah, I should really know that! The Tesco I work in wasn't stocking Lego City today and it's a big store but then again it only stocks 5 WiiU games. When does that discount code expire? I get my staff discount back in 3 days so I'll wait til then if possible to use it for Luigis Mansion.
Isn't a Thursday an unusual day for games to come out or are they starting Thursday releases now? Read this article and drove to the shop as quick as I could to get Lego City!
Why charge more for the codes? I was hoping through this system online retailers could give discounts over the price Nintendo is charging on the eshop.
To those of you sick of hearing about the Titanic, consider this, I live in Belfast, everything you hear these days is Titanic related! (Although I'd just like to point out, it was alright when it left Belfast.)
Since I started bringing mine to lectures with me I get two or three hits a day, success! Also without noticing I passed someone I used to go to school with because I collected their mii, was chuffed! lol
Unlikely but I hope they update for instant messaging, or at least provide an instant messaging feature, would greatly improve the online capabilities!
Just remember there are good games on WiiWare, but the interface really is a problem, put me off buying many games. All in all the 3DS's service is much better, but still not up to standard. IMO I think the downloads on the Nintendo store are better than the other two, most people will just never know. (Small games that is, PSN and XBL destroy WiiWare on retail games obviously).

Re: Wii Mini Shifts 35,700 Units in Canada

Re: Nintendo UK Boss David Yarnton to Leave Nintendo
Isn't this the guy who had health problems a few weeks ago? That, of course, would explain him leaving.

Good to something being developed for the 3DS, the lack of games really needs addressed.
