The way I see it is if they can push the hardware to look and run as good as Smash 3DS does then its worth losing petty features like CPP support and miiverse intergration
@Pigeon Exactly! I only buy downloads from a shop when they have sales on, this system sounds kind of stupid imo A better system would be allowing us to buy games from the eshop on our phones or through an internet browser whilst on the go i.e. at work etc. Perhaps even allow the 3DS/WiiU to start downloading the game straight away (if its on standby) so its ready for when you when you return.
@C-Olimar Not sure if Fantasy Life had the DLC day one in Japan when it was released a while back. If not then that fact might excuse it a bit (also it sounds like quite a hefty package for what you pay)
Might pick up Armillo this week - I've heard good things about it. It goes without saying that I can't wait for Smash Bros next week! Definitely going digital for the 3DS version!
Probably wait until Hyrule Warriors is a bit cheaper (probably go on sale near Christmas) In the meantime DuckTales is finally a reasonable price and I will be able to play the Mercenaries 3D properly for once (First time I picked it up from cex and didn't realise about the perma save file).
@MeWario I feel fine with the current VC offering - there are some games which I wish would come out but if Nintendo released them all at once then I wouldn't have anything to get during the dry spells. I prefer the slow and steady method of release they are using. Just out of interest what VC games do you especially want to see?
@aaronsullivan Having just played it I can confirm that the touch screen on the gamepad is still interactive whilst the pro-controller is being used Image and Form have really got the hang of the WiiU hardware
@HappyMaskedGuy Hey, personally I like the Call Of Duty games because of the violence, it is a safe medium of escapism which doesn't deal physical damage to anyone, I would never be able to do what I do in CoD in real life so it is fun to be able to do it in a game

Re: The Letter Version 1.1 Update Has a New Trailer
shame it's not on the EU eshop, I'd like to play it just to see; a) how bad it is, and b) how much they will eventually improve it
