For the Wii U version they released one amiibo card (shadow mewtwo) that was included with the first run of physical copies. I never really understood the point with it, you could unlock that character from the start and that was all. They should have released and sold cards with new fighters. What a wasted opportunity.
I've waited since the 9th of March 2014 for this when becoming a backer on Kickstarter. Awesome that it will release tomorrow and hopefully on the Switch in the future.
Hardware in 2017 is too powerful to have these performance issues. Think about it, MK8 Deluxe runs at 60 fps. So this is just evidence of lazy programming/a cash grab port.
The future of the Switch is still uncertain at this point. It has no other games that I want. The Wii U version of BOTW is good enough for me. I noticed a few frame rate issues at the first stable and Kakiro Village but still a great game.
I double dipped and got the 3DS version as well. And I don't regret it! It runs absolutely great at 60fps on the new 3DS. The 3D effect, Poochy runner levels and 31 short movies made it worth it. Yarn Poochy amiibo is cute too
I remember when games came with a thick printed manual, everything included (no DLC), free online and didn't cost £60. Next, a monthly fee for the air we breathe?

Re: The Plug Will Finally Be Pulled On Miiverse In November
Such a shame. I wonder when they will pull the plug on Wii U online play
Re: Ubisoft Confirms Rayman Legends: Definitive Edition Date With Demo 'Later This Summer'
Got it on Wii U and that's enough. But it's a great game.
Re: Feature: Re-acquainting Ourselves With an Old Ally in Metroid: Samus Returns
@Pandaman
Do you know if the game has improved performance in any way on the new 3ds?
Re: Reminder: Here Are the Times for the Splatoon 2 Splatfest World Premiere
Ice Cream is cooool!
Re: The Metroid: Samus Returns Legacy Edition is Up for Pre-Order on the Official Nintendo UK Store
The game is enough for me.
Re: Netflix Renews Castlevania Series For A Second, Longer Season
Enjoyed the first three episodes. Will watch the final tomorrow.
Re: Reminder: The Castlevania Netflix Series is Available Now
It is available on Netflix in Sweden. Watched the first episode. Pretty good so far.
Re: Review: Darksiders: Warmastered Edition (Wii U)
Bought it, a good game for the price. I doubt there will be a patch. We will have to live with some glitches like Darksiders II.
Re: Twintelle Joins The ARMS Global Testpunch Roster This Weekend
"many who had written ARMS off as a shallow waggle-fest experience have been won over by the deep gameplay and fun on offer"
According to forum comments, many who had preordered the game found it boring and deceided to cancel it.
Re: Legend of Zelda and Mario Kart Feature in Updated European My Nintendo Rewards
Yawn!
Re: Pikmin is the Theme in This Week's European My Nintendo Updates
The Pikmin movies are good. I have watched them on Wii U many times.
Re: Feature: Ten Wii U Games That Would Find a Loving Home on Nintendo Switch
Smash, Pokken and Mario Maker seem rather likely. Maybe also DKCTF.
Re: Poll: What Do You Think of the Zelda: Breath of the Wild - The Master Trials DLC?
Playing the main game until x-mas. No hurry with the DLC.
Re: Zelda: Breath of the Wild Version 1.2.0 Enables Multi-Language Support, Live Now
Yay! (I signed a petition for this some time ago)
Re: Nintendo Reveals "The Master Trials", the First DLC Pack for The Legend of Zelda: Breath of the Wild
Rather disappointing.
Re: Video: SEGA Releases Handy Puyo Puyo Tetris Tutorials
Game is way too expensive for what it is. Might consider it at half price.

Re: Arzest Emerges as Developer of Hey! Pikmin
It will probably not use much (if any) 3D since the video shows gameplay on the lower screen.
Re: Shovel Knight: Specter of Torment Wii U And 3DS Release Dates Revealed
Nice! Thank you Yacht Club Games.
Re: Darksiders: Warmastered Edition Confirmed For May 23rd Release On Wii U

Re: Video: Digital Foundry Pits Nintendo Switch vs. PS4 in Dragon Quest Heroes II Comparison
Wii U crappy 3rd-party launch repeat itself. And then they wonder why we don't buy their games.
Re: Caveman Warriors is Stretching for Nintendo Switch and Wii U on Kickstarter
So I design a boss and the developers pay me $3000, right?
Re: Video: Digital Foundry Tackles Zelda: Breath of the Wild on Nintendo Switch vs. Wii U
The future of the Switch is still uncertain at this point. It has no other games that I want. The Wii U version of BOTW is good enough for me. I noticed a few frame rate issues at the first stable and Kakiro Village but still a great game.
Re: Feature: First Impressions of The Legend of Zelda: Breath of the Wild on Wii U
Nintendo sure saved the best Wii U game for last!
Re: Poochy & Yoshi Offer Tips For National Love Your Pet Day

Re: Million-Selling Urban Trial Freestyle Is Getting An Exclusive 3DS Sequel This Year
Cool. I like the first game, it has a very good 3D effect.

Sure interested in a physical release.

Good luck with that, Nintendo.

I supported this Kickstarter almost three years ago. Hats off to Snowcastle for keeping their promise of a Wii U-release!
Re: Kerbal Space Program Developer Reevaluating Proposed Wii U Port
I was looking forward to purchase this game on the Wii U. Not getting a Switch.
Re: Tomorrow Corporation is Bringing Its Back Catalogue to Nintendo Switch at Launch
Only got Little Inferno but that is great. I use to play through it every X-mas. Burn stuff!
Re: Video: Here's The Switch Touchscreen That Nintendo Apparently Doesn't Want You To Know About
So a game like Mario Maker could be a possibility on Switch (where you can create courses when in handheld mode and play them on TV when docked).
Re: Poll: A Week On, How Do You Feel About the Nintendo Switch?
Of course a price drop will come later this year. They just want to milk the die-hard fans first.
Re: Talking Point: Considering the Paid Online Service for the Nintendo Switch

Re: Video: Mix It Up With This Puyo Puyo Tetris Switch Trailer
Lets hope the Wii U-version gets localized.
Re: The Legend of Zelda: Breath of the Wild Will Require a 3GB Install on Wii U
Wii U physical
Re: Nintendo Download: 19th January (Europe)
Aqua TV. Any opinions if it is worth it at a discount?
Re: First Impressions: A Switch Surprise - Cutting Snipperclips Down to Size
This game could just as well be released on the Wii U too. Why force us to buy new hardware.
Re: Reggie Fils-Aime Briefly Addresses Topic Of Carrying Over Online Purchases To Switch
Don't worry, you will be able to play your VC games for an extra monthly fee
Re: Breaking Down the Nintendo Switch Online Service Details
Such a joke. I'm not switching.

I like Zelda, Link and Bokoblin. Thinking about getting Wolf Link also.
Re: Soapbox: Why I Still Love the Wii U
Those games and off-tv play

I will get Toki Tori 2+ and possibly one of the games from DrinkBox Studios.
Re: Video: Gorillas, Mechs And Lightning Bolts, Wii U FPS Draw The Line Has It All
Nexis and RCMADIAX should develop a game together.
