Most of the time I use the gamepad for SNES games, unless it's multiplayer. I'd love to play some Sega VC games, but since they're only available in the Wii mode, without gamepad input, they're a no deal for me
Gonna go for F1 Race Stars, I've been waiting for this offer since US got it before =) Also, I'm getting Mario Kart but just because I'm going to download MK8 ASAP, so it's going to be for free...
I hope they also "remake" the new games from wii sports resort - in particular, basketball and swordfight! However, paying 10$ for each off these games would sum up to a-hell-of-a-lot
I never had a Wii, so only now with a Wii U I got to play this...
The gameplay was good, very different from other games around, with nice motion controls, plus the use of the environment. While the gameplay was good, everything else was... great! The black&white, comics-like art style, soundtrack, story, voice acting, characters, diversity of the stages (from chinatown to horror castle, not to mention the deathmatches....), humour... just perfect!
Specially considering that it's being sold NEW for less than 10$, this is certainly a must have
I don't like this... all the other SNES games are 7.99, why is this 9.99? They don't give discount for smaller/worse games, why can they charge more for a (perhaps) higher-quality one? I mean, if Super Metroid can be the same price as Vegas Stakes, why couldn't Earthbound? And what if the other companies go on the same line and make their bigger games more expensive as well?
Yeah, it would definitely be nice if it was launched earlier, especially because now it will be more or less competing with the other Ubi launches, but if the appeals to you, why not buy it? We don't want EA to be petty with Nintendo over the (supposed) Origin issue, let's not have petty feelings with Ubisoft either
that's nice, I didn't expect that Pikmin could make people buy a console! But, yeah, I guess it's not only the game itself, but the new games that are announced to come next, with pikmin being only the trigger that says "buy now" instead of "buy it next month"
totally agree with what he says about the wii u sales - most of the frustration we see coming on the news (including this site and its comments) seems to be due to over-expectation, not only wrt sales but also to game line-up, specs, etc.
btw, Gunstar Heroes was great fun, would love to see a sequel!

Re: New Wii U System Update Goes Live Across Europe, North America and Japan
All of a sudden the Wii U games became 10% better for me, since now the sound is coming from a proper sound system rather than from the TV speakers =)

@rjejr you know about the "press B while starting up" trick, right?
Re: You'll Be Able To Use Wii Fit U For One Month Free Of Charge
Did anyone notice that they are going to make us advertise the wii u, as we will be walking around with that gadget? Quite smart of them.

Re: Video: Dakko Dakko Shows Off Scram Kitty and His Buddy on Rails
At first I didn't care about this game, but this video got me interested! It'd be nice to see the multiplayer mode as well

Re: Nintendo Download: 18th July (Europe)
So, is there any gameplay footage or review of Smurfs 2? It could be interesting...
