Siliconera explained this much better. It works more like the PS3's Ad hoc party. The LAN adapter is just the standard Ethernet-to-USB adapter that allows you to use a wired connection for all online stuff.
You need it to play because the WIFI is connecting to the 3DS instead of the Internet so the Wii U needs a separate Internet connection. If you already had an adapter you could be playing right away without any extra purchase.
@Bass_X0 Except for the fact that Professional reviewers rarely go back to update reviews for game that are made better by patches and so they are often still seen as bad games by potential purchasers.
Yoshi's epic Yarn Great surprise . I'm looking forward to playing it. I hope the New 3D Mario isn't galaxy. I hope It's Sunshine 2. New Monolith Game Looks incredible!!!
@slidecage The demo probably creates extra data like what games use for streetpass.So it works just like loading the data from a streetpass when the cart isn't in the system.
I don't see why this would be a bad thing,I have a Vita and it sure could a use a new MH game. And I don't think it would hurt 3DS sales anyway,Most people who would buy a 3DS for monster hunter have/will have already bought one for Tri G.
I want one, but I can't afford one yet.I'm planing on being able to buy one once Monster Hunter is released.
I think Nintendo has done a really bad job at educating consumers as to what a Wii U is.
My friends who aren't really gamers but are interested in games have had to ask me what a Wii U is. Some think it's a hand-held,other just don't know what it is. They wonder if it's a hand-held, a console or something you use with a Wii. I think it would be a lot better if they called it a Wii Tuu(two).
I know I want one. It will probably be too expensive for me but I have been waiting for a quality gaming-focused android device so if it's affordable I'd get one.
Monster Hunter all the way, I'm getting the 3DS version but I'm also going to buy a Wii U (if i don't have one yet) and MHTri U once it's out here in NA.
I don't have a Wii U yet but I'm glad Nintendo stuck with Resistive touch screens because between my DS/3DS and my Vita I very much prefer the DS's pixel perfect accurate Resistive touch screens to the Vita's clunky capacitive.
I thought that the game already had a great difficulty level. It wasn't really hard just to beat but beating the par times provided a pleasant but not crushing challenge.
Having played the PC version and gotten every ending(including the Mimiga mask ) before it was ever a retail game I've never been convinced to buy any other version they released. This is the version that makes me want to buy, The original 2D artwork in 3D? Yes please!
Not that I plan on downloading it but I still have over 18000 blocks on my card so it would not bug me much. I think this is about the same as Mighty Switch Force so it seems about on par with a top end E-Shop game.
I can't believe Mighty switch force isn't getting much love,It looks beautiful, plays great and has a fantastic sound track. I can believe that Mario is getting much love but to me there hasn't been a really good Mario game since Sunshine. 3DLand has bright but bland visuals and no challenge,And yes I beat every level with both Bros, got all the star coins and gold flags.
But with that said here's my top games(Not counting VC games) 4: Pushmo 3:Samurai Warriors: Chronicles 2: Pokemon Rumble Blast 1:Mighty Switch Force
Honorable mentions (in no certain order) AR Games Dillon's Rolling Western Face Raiders Sakura Samurai: Art of the sword Mii Plaza PilotWings Resort Super Mario 3D Land

Cloud God is really good so I'm excited to see more of this.
Re: Review: Zen Pinball 2 (Wii U eShop)
I play this on my PS3/Vita and I HIGHLY recommend the Epic Quest,PvZ and about half the marvel tables.

Re: Smash Bros. Melee Needs Your Help To Make It To EVO 2013
I'm not voting, but If I was I would vote for Skullgirls because Smash is just not designed for serious tournament play and Skullgirls is.
Re: Nintendo Download: 31st January 2013 (Europe)
I already have Batman and Zen on PS3 so nothing for me. I little later to the party for me Nintendo..
Re: Review: Ikachan (3DS eShop)
If only this was a two dollar game I might bite but five for a shallow experience sounds steep.
Re: Nintendo Launches Wii U Virtual Console Trial Compaign Today
I already own all the games in some form but for 30 cents I'll rebuy all of them except Metriod.
Re: Talking Point: Wii U Direct - Tell Us What You Thought

I hope the New 3D Mario isn't galaxy. I hope It's Sunshine 2.

Re: 3D Super Mario Title In Development For Wii U
Sunshine 2 PLEASE!!! I want open levels to explore and the freedom of movement only a water powered jetpack can give.
Re: Nintendo Direct: Watch The Wii U Direct Presentation Live
New Monlithsoft game is so beautiful it brought a tear to my eye..

Re: Satoru Iwata Tweets That Wii U Direct Will Be "A Bit Different"
I think different would be no major releases but instead a shotgun blast of smaller games.
Re: Etrian Odyssey IV: Legends of the Titan Demo On The Way
I think this demo might be the thing that finally gets me into this series.
Also the font in this game is fantastic.
Re: Wii U Direct Scheduled For Tomorrow
I bet Miyamoto made a new small-ish game for the Wii U e-Shop.
Also a new Dillions Rolling Western game for Wii U would be a dream.Especially if it was a Zelda like adventure game or a turn based RPG.

Re: Capcom Comments On Monster Hunter 4 Vita Rumours
I'd rather the Vita get a new Exclusive Monster Hunter anyway.
Re: Rumour: Monster Hunter 4 Delay Is Due To PS Vita Port
I don't see why this would be a bad thing,I have a Vita and it sure could a use a new MH game. And I don't think it would hurt 3DS sales anyway,Most people who would buy a 3DS for monster hunter have/will have already bought one for Tri G.
Re: Developer Interview: Fuzzy Wuzzy Games Talks Armillo And Developing For The Wii U eShop

I'll be downloading them both!
Re: Retro City Rampage Still On Course For Release This Month
@Zach I agree about being disappointed, I got it for free from PS+ and was kind of glad I didn't pay for it.
It's not really a bad game, it's just too easy and has shallow gameplay.
I'm not saying don't get it,but just make sure you temper your exceptions.

Re: Feature: The Biggest Wii U Games of 2013
Monster Hunter all the way, I'm getting the 3DS version but I'm also going to buy a Wii U (if i don't have one yet) and MHTri U once it's out here in NA.

Re: Wii U Update Will Be Available Out Of The Box Next Year
I won't be able to afford a Wii U until next year so hopefully by the time I can get one I won't need to do the big update.
Re: Hardware Review: Wii U
I don't have a Wii U yet but I'm glad Nintendo stuck with Resistive touch screens because between my DS/3DS and my Vita I very much prefer the DS's pixel perfect accurate Resistive touch screens to the Vita's clunky capacitive.
Re: Wii Mini Is Official And Has No Online Connectivity
No Internet make this the worst thing ever. It's not even that much cheaper then normal Wii. I don't see why any one would buy this.
Re: Wii U Version Of Mighty Switch Force Much Harder Than The Original
I thought that the game already had a great difficulty level. It wasn't really hard just to beat but beating the par times provided a pleasant but not crushing challenge.
Re: Nintendo of Europe Offers Up Free Layton Swag
Just the thing you need to let thieves know that your bag likely contains a DS.
Re: Review: Cave Story (3DS eShop)
Having played the PC version and gotten every ending(including the Mimiga mask ) before it was ever a retail game I've never been convinced to buy any other version they released.
This is the version that makes me want to buy, The original 2D artwork in 3D? Yes please!
Re: Namco's Harada: Smash Bros. Design is Sakurai's Job
I'd like to see Klonoa and Gon as playable characters and some old arcade characters used in some way.
Re: New Super Mario Bros. 2 Download Size Breaks Some Blocks
Not that I plan on downloading it but I still have over 18000 blocks on my card so it would not bug me much.
I think this is about the same as Mighty Switch Force so it seems about on par with a top end E-Shop game.
Re: Grandpa Danger Jya Coming to 3DS
I think the trailer shed much light about the game. It showed that this will never make it outside Japan.
