Re: Crunchyroll Arrives on Wii U as a Free App in North America

It's only a $11.95 subscription fee if you want both anime and drama streamed. It's $6.95 if you want anime or drama separately. Anyway, if you're a fan of animation in general, I highly recommend giving this app a try. There are a wide array of genres, both all ages and more mature content. I think it's pretty awesome. Happy holidays.

(Edit: Got the price wrong for the two for one. Sorry.)

Not only that, but disc based versions of digital only games has a lot of appeal for fans who want to have a physical version of a game that is only digital, from Terrarria on PS3 to Minecraft on 360 to New Super Luigi U on Wii U. I do find it encouraging that they chose the Wii U as the first disc-based release. For many, it just adds a new option for consumers who want the game, and that's not a bad thing.

Re: Soapbox: Why Grand Theft Auto V Isn't For Me

I'm not the biggest fan of GTA, but I will admit V looks fun on a visceral, omg level (sorry for that.) I can understand, though that it's not for everyone, and I'm glad there are games like Legend of Zelda: Wind Waker (my not first but most cherished game in the series) that can give gamers of all ages and skill levels a chance to go on a grand adventure in a world that never ceases to amaze. Variety in the game industry is never a bad thing.

Re: Animal Crossing: New Leaf Secures Second in the UK Charts, Again

While I'm glad it happens, I don't believe a game with great reviews are always guaranteed great retail sales. Great games like Beyond Good and Evil, Okami, Psychonauts and others were blessed with really high reviews but plagued with poor sales when they first came out. (Ironically, all three of these games received HD re-releases this generation.) I'm glad Animal Crossing is doing so well, but great review scores do not always equal superior sales.
