@Jampie Thanks so much! Got a 2000-points card on eBay for $14...going to use it for Majora's Mask and this

@Jampie Sure if you don't mind. I don't have access to my console atm

@Jampie Do you remember off hand how many Wii points it costs?

@Peach64 Amazon.uk has it for £220

"Nintendo of America is yet to announced"

should be "...has yet to announce" (I'm sure about removing the 'd.' Using 'has' as the helping verb also seems correct to me but maybe that is different in UK English.)

@MAN1AC

Looking at the bigger picture, they'll make much more money long-term if they can sell a bunch of consoles with a bundle like this.

Wii U - Super Metroid, Darksiders 2

Xbox 360 - Bayonetta

totally in for Rayman Legends!

This game is obviously interesting and novel as an iPhone (touch screen) offering, but what would it be without that novelty? What is the point of having it on Wii U??

would love cross-buy with Pure Chess :-/

"Ok guys, we need some 'new' ideas for Yoshi."

"Well, we had Mario get really big and plow through the level destroying everything in his path. Why don't we just do the exact same thing with Yoshi's egg?"

Definitely in for Darksiders II and probably Pure Chess

Just finished downloading Super Metroid on Wii U VC for my first ever playthrough!

As for the Prime trilogy, any hope in that appearing in an HD remake? Should I just get the Wii version that sells for so much on eBay?

Looking forward to this game!

Newegg has this for $2.99 shipped today

No point in getting into arguments with people whose minds are made up. Just wanted to say that as a man with an infant daughter hoping against hope that something about our culture's hunger to objectify people and hyper-sexualize everything changes before she becomes a teenager, I appreciate this Soapbox, Damien.

Hoping for Dr. Luigi discount in NA

It's a pretty good week for me w/Runner 2 and Blok Drop U

@nesvc not necessarily. The special edition Pokemon X/Y consoles didn't come with the game.

@irken004 Agreed. I really hope they fix that soon!

I really wish they would release this in NA...

@irken004 I am just looking at it from a different angle. You're billing the small internal storage as a failure of Nintendo to be with "the times" (as defined by you) rather than realizing that it's a conscious choice that allows people the choice to add more storage if they WANT (and still keeping the total price point below the other consoles) while keeping the price down to allow entry for more people/families who don't need more than 32 GB of space, which is the case for many people who don't want/can't afford to pay the extra money for 500 GB up front.

@Cyrso
"to fuel the ignorancy of your fanbase...Then you're inconsciously being biased."

Oh the irony.

@irken004 You can get a Wii U and a 1 TB external HDD for less than a PS4, which doesn't even support external storage.

Do you have to finish the main game in order to play these extra stages like the Christmas-themed stage?

What if Zelda U is a sequel to MM and includes a free downloadable copy of MM: HD?

I was briefly in Best Buy and saw stacks and stacks of Wii U's. The games section had a big stack of Mario 3D World.

@Bliquid So I'm against the sexual objectification of women in video games, especially characters that look awfully young, and I'M the bigot? Can't say I follow you.

@Kmno Why would I be disappointed that she's not a fairy? I haven't played the game so I don't know who she is.

@CanisWolfred

Thanks. And you're right about teens, unfortunately. As for the game, it does look quite good. Can you comment as to whether the sexualization is just in the cover art/advertisement or is that how the art is done throughout the game?

@GamerJunkie
"Nintendo? Nothing. Then they wonder why they get their yearly Wii U consoles outsold in 1 day by PS4 and XBOX1."

In other news, that didn't actually happen.

And Nintendo doesn't hawk their games like cheap knick-knacks because their games aren't cheap knick-knacks.

Newegg has Pikmin 3 for $39.99

Why does everything have to be sexualized? Can we just have a fairy that looks like a fairy and isn't sitting in an alluring position with a dress so short it barely covers her junk?

@PinkSpider The Japanese are going DUDEBRO?????
NOOOOOOOOOOOOOO!

(Darth Vader "Where's Padme?" Meme)

Is this a trend now? Girls playing violin renditions of video game themes and making dramatic 'music videos'? Lindsey Stirling? Taylor Davis? Are there more?

@Maneauleau thanks! It's only $1.99 USD for me which is technically a bit less than 2 euros! I normally try not to buy multiple games at once but since this is only 2 bucks I think I can manage to get it along with Mario 3D World tomorrow

Anyone know if the $1.99 is just a temporary introductory price?

looks cool. I just got Nano Assault Neo and am enjoying it a lot. It was my first Shin'en game but now I'm looking forward to this and Jett Rocket 2.

...because Nintendo won't properly support their new home console.

@Robottiimu2000

There's no way you burned 250 calories playing Wii tennis for half an hour.

How about Metroid? I'd like to get into it but tried playing the original on my 3ds and got lost pretty early on

Sounds like it might be worth renting first. Never played the others and my wife and I are looking for fun co-op games. I wonder if this game would score higher for people who have never played the others?

Oh well, at least 3DWorld isn't far off!

"even Smash Bros. is easy for anyone to play."

I wish...I'm so bad at Smash Bros For some reason I just don't "get" fighting games

Does this mean no clans AT ALL for Wii U, or just that Wii U players can't create cross-platform clans??

probably not included in the Wii U version anyway

Hmmmm which one of these best matches the ALBW 3DS XL??

The gaming world wants grotesque violence and softcore (for now...?) porn. I was hoping this industry could hold out a bit longer than every other form of entertainment in our culture so that my children could have an experience similar to the one I had growing up, but alas. Stand strong, Nintendo.

currently on sale on the eShop for $19.99!

downloading Revelations on my Wii U now!!

Support Activision this holiday. By CoD: Ghosts and Swap Force on Wii U!!

Not sure about why people are complaining about already having stuff downloaded on a previous system. You can do a system transfer onto the new special edition and then either keep or sell the old one
