TBH, I thought that Princes Peach would be playable in 3D Land after seeing a few of the postcards. No surprises, though. @Dogpigfish - You just had to take a stab at Sonic, huh. Well, no matter. That's just your opinion.
@Malic - Ignore JumpMad. He's just trollin'. I chock the frame rate difference up to lack of Wii U optimization. Can't wait to see wait Wii U's really capable of.
@joker94 - You are right. Once he's paid for it, it is his alone and no one can tell him how to use it. Is what he did stupid? Yes. Is it wasteful? Yes. Can he do it? Yes. Also, can we stop the name-calling and mild insults guys? They do nothing to prove points. If you have to resort to these tactics to defend your point of view, then perhaps you need to reexamine just how solid it was to begin with.
@joker94 - I don't know about you, but I would be pretty depressed to see someone destroy something I had just built right in front of me. And what about Nintendo staff? Would they be mental if they had a problem with seeing one of their devices senselessly destroyed and sold for an outrageous price?
I think that this was a waste. He bought it fair and square, but surely he could find something better to do with it. If you don't think this was a waste because it was still paid for, then think about it this way: that is one less console that games can be bought for.
I think Mario Kart could take some notes here. This game, from what I've researched, is no Mario Kart clone. I, for one, can't wait to play it and to read the NL review.
I'd like to see some classic SEGA titles hit the eShop. I haven't been able to play many of SEGA's well known oldies (except Sonic ), so this would be the perfect way to experience them.
NNNOOOOOO! Will all the coverage this game had received, I thought it was going to be pretty good. I am glad though that you were honest with your review. Kudos!
@Molotov
You wouldn't necessarily be buying games that you wouldn't have before. You could use the extra cash you get back to get a game you already planned to get for cheaper/free. Essentially, it's rewarding your patronage with extra games.
@Ideal_Hero - There will be no hat-eating today! <insert hearty laugh> I rather liked these comics. I wish my local library would keep up with the new releases better. Both volumes sound like they would be nice to have.
I can't wait to immerse myself in the 8th generation. Graphics are nice, but I don't think that is what defines a generation or makes a game great. And as for those launch surprises, I'm all ears, Reggie.
@DrSlump - I totally understand. Good luck with that!
I'm noticing a disturbing lack of Sonic and All-Stars Racing Transformed. Did anybody get that? What are your thoughts? I've yet to find a decent review. Feel free to post in my forum on the subject.

Re: Wii U Can be Used as a Portable Home Console
You gotta admit, that is pretty neat. If I had a phone, I wonder if I could play it in my car...
Re: Review: Little Inferno (Wii U eShop)
Well, this certainly sounds like a unique title. Just might try this some day.
Re: The Godfather of Video Games Is Baffled By The Wii U
I understand exactly what his problem is. He's baffled because, with the Game Pad, people can now play Pong against themselves. It's crazy!
Re: UK Retailers: Wii U Is Sold Out
I like the sound of Wii U selling out. Hopefully this is a sign of things to come.
Re: Call of Duty Black Ops II Suffers From Reduced Frame Rate On Wii U
@Malic - Ignore JumpMad. He's just trollin'.
I chock the frame rate difference up to lack of Wii U optimization. Can't wait to see wait Wii U's really capable of.

Wow. This sounds pretty good. I might consider getting it now.

That sounded like a lot of fun. I hope I get Sticker Star for Christmas.
Re: Wii U System Update Can Be Downloaded in the Background
Oh well. I already did the download the regular way. It's fine though, since I had some other things to do.

I think Mario Kart could take some notes here. This game, from what I've researched, is no Mario Kart clone. I, for one, can't wait to play it and to read the NL review.
Re: Don't Worry, Our Wii U Reviews Are Incoming
That makes sense. Thanks for letting us know.
I eagerly await the reviews.
Re: Microwave 'Artist' Returns to Melt a Wii U
I'm gonna fry a Wii U and sell it for lotsa monies! Derp!

Re: Rumour: SEGA Looking To Bring Classic Titles To 3DS eShop
I'd like to see some classic SEGA titles hit the eShop. I haven't been able to play many of SEGA's well known oldies (except Sonic ), so this would be the perfect way to experience them.
Re: Wii U Becomes Profitable With One Game Sale
I'll be able to make Nintendo happy this Christmas. REALLY happy.

I had never even heard of this series until now, so I'm good.
@19Robb92 - That sounds about right.
Re: Review: Spirit Hunters Inc. Shadow/Light (DSiWare)
NNNOOOOOO! Will all the coverage this game had received, I thought it was going to be pretty good. I am glad though that you were honest with your review. Kudos!
Re: Wii U on Plenty of U.S. Christmas Lists
Nice to see Wii U is a hot item. Too bad the 3DS isn't faring quite as well.

Re: Wii U Software Discounts Hit Ahead of Black Friday, Analysts Weigh In
I plan to take advantage of the Toys 'R' Us deal. It sounds like Wii U is off to a pretty good start.

No surprises here. It is nice that Nintendo will now be putting all its console effort into Wii U.

@Ideal_Hero - There will be no hat-eating today! <insert hearty laugh>
I rather liked these comics. I wish my local library would keep up with the new releases better. Both volumes sound like they would be nice to have.
Re: Premium Wii U Owners In The UK Need To Spend £62.50 To Receive £5 eShop Voucher
Does this apply to NA, or just EU?
Re: Reggie - Wii U Is "Absolutely The Beginning Of A New Generation"
I can't wait to immerse myself in the 8th generation. Graphics are nice, but I don't think that is what defines a generation or makes a game great. And as for those launch surprises, I'm all ears, Reggie.
Re: Simple Workaround Allows You To Play Wii U Games Off An SD Card
This sounds useful. However, I doubt that I will be downloading many retail games, at least in the beginning.
Re: Link And Mario Have Gate-Crashed These Scribblenauts Unlimited Trailers
This is one for the Christmas list.
Re: Take An In-Depth Look At What's Under The Wii U's Shiny Exterior
@Ideal_Hero - Hey, you stole my line! >:{
I, for one, will not open up my Wii U. I'd rather play it and not take my chances with messing it up.
Re: Hyrule Historia Picks Up New Cover and Trailer
This looks great. I'm also looking forward to the History of Sonic the Hedgehog.
Re: Halting Wii U System Update May Brick the System
I' glad I know this now. I would hate to have my Wii U bricked. Also, is Nintendo planning on fixing bricked systems?
Re: Miiverse Hacked By Mistake, Possible Metal Gear And Yoshi Wii U Games Unearthed
Well, it turns out it was a mock up, but I don't quite get what that's supposed to mean. Also, are the Yoshi/Metal Gear games real or not?
Re: Nintendo Network IDs Are Tied To A Single Wii U Console, For Now
I'm ok with this for now. It would be nice to see Nintendo expand this in the future, though.
Re: Isaiah Triforce Johnson Grabs First Wii U at Launch Event
Rats! I just learned that my Wii U may not be delivered until Wednesday. I hope it comes sooner than that.
Re: Feature: Wii U Launch Day, Live!
@DrSlump - I totally understand. Good luck with that!

Re: Feature: Wii U Launch Day, Live!
@Dr Slump
Maybe you could just try to replicate the Mii on Wii U. Do you think you could do it?
Re: Ubisoft Uplay App On The Way To Wii U
Ubisoft really seems to like Wii U. This makes them extra awesome.
Re: Colors! 3D Receiving Update Before The New Year
This update was sorely needed. I agree with @Prof_Clayton. A filter will be much appreciated.
Re: Feature: Wii U Launch Day, Live!
This shall be most awesome!

Re: Feature: What Excites Us About Wii U - NA Edition
