OK - so I've put about $1000 into my Wii U - I never expected Nintendo to drop support for a system this fast. I am a diehard fan - but this is really too soon. 2 and a half years? Come on now. A system is supposed to go a good 4 years before we start hearing about the next one. SMH. It makes you start to think about the next system. Is this next system just gonna be around for a few years? Seriously.
I would like to see a really big level that barely involves attacking the other team. Like make it so big that you would have to decide "I'm gonna go as fast as I can to get to the other team" - just for variety - so that there can be an almost "free paint" level - ok now that I type it it sounds kind of lame....
@Mauhiho Well that means you play for about 15 minutes. I hit the level cap in a week. I have a job and pay rent - and I have a clean house - I sleep plenty - just saying - I even skipped a day - the game is addictive - did they not think about that? They could give us more equipment - they could up the level cap after more and more people get to 20 - up it to 30 - and wait. Keep doing that - as the EXP for each level goes up, eventually it would be really really difficult to get to say level 50. It took me a good day to get from 19 to 20. Where as I got to level 8 or 9 in the first day playing.
None of this makes any sense to me at all. I've played Mario Kart more than any other game since 2008 - I have no idea about any tournaments or anything.
Maybe I'm weird - but I just want to recreate levels from Mario's past - and play them with the HD graphics. I just want this to replace Super Mario All-Stars - essentially. I'm probably never going to build levels - I just want to play levels that other people make - and hopefully play all of the old Mario levels in super fresh HD.
@Mus1cLov3r I just thought it would be best to go into the game knowing that. You travel through two time eras - so you are going into towns twice to gather the items in each - and if you miss something - good luck finding out what you missed and where it is - I'm just saying the best way to go through it is with a fine tooth comb. The game has a different game play loop than most RPGs.
@Mus1cLov3r If you haven't played any of them before - 7 is gong to be a hard hard game to get into - understand before you play it that it is HEAVY on the item collection - and wash/rinse/repeat game play. That game benefits from a walkthrough as much as any game ever. It took me over 4 hours to get into my first battle - but I hear the 3DS version cuts that time in half or something. But it is a great and fantastic game. It is a slow burn though.
@RainbowGazelle I was able to get it for $20 - in the US - I know it is different here - but I'm gonna be buying it again - maybe Radiant Dawn will get rereleased on the eShop
@SirQuincealot I got it for like $9 a few months ago - I'm playing it for the first time right now - not sure if I want to get it for the Wii U or not - I'll probably get it eventually. I love the Mario and Luigi Series.
@Zach777 Yes - a fellow transmission from NA over here - I don't know why we have to wait - couldn't they give us Kirby's Epic Yarn on the eShop to hold us over??
One day they will make their version of FF12 - and it will be a glorious day indeed! Quests - hunts - character trees - It will be mine. Oh yes. It will be mine. (coffee is working)
I just finished FE Awakening - and they put out Sacred Stones - I'm chewing hard on the Mario and Luigi series - I'm hoping for a rerelease of 1000 Year Door. That would be NUTS!
@Mus1cLov3r I agree 100% - Tool fans are the same way. First they are mad at the amount of time between projects, then they complain about the product. "The food at this restaurant is terrible." "Yeah, and the portions are so small!"
@VanillaLake Um - naw. So far nothing but Grade A games. And awesome DLC. Looks like a bunch of people are just angry kids. Ima be over here enjoying myself with the games I have. And maybe Fire Emblem Sacred Stones will be out later today. Good times if you ask me.
Looking forward to Yoshi's Wooly World, Fire Emblem Fate, Paper Mario and Luigi, Star Fox, Zelda, Super Mario Maker, Triforce Heroes - Wow - that is some good stuff!
@Uberchu The Wii U is only capable of recognizing 2TB of that HDD - and you can't use the left over space for anything - so yeah - I just got a 2TB. I was going to get a larger one - and transfer everything from my old 2TB onto it - but I figured spend less money - and spend less time transferring files - later on I'll get a nice big HDD.
@outburst To put it on Wii U they would have to remake a lot of assets - those gamecube polys are pretty jagged. It would be easier to port it down rather than boost a bunch of graphics. I don't see them putting the work in to make it like HD and stuff.
@DinoFett I like Derek from CGRUndertow, and Projared - the other CGRUndertow guy with the deep voice is great too. I sort of like the Wiiviewr. If the other two like it, and the Wiiviewr, then I'm sold.
@Oragami you never said he made any good games - I didn't say you were wrong - I just suggested he deserves the bad rep for all of his games, not just flappy bird.

Re: Nindies@Home E3 Promotion Offers Wii U eShop Demos With 15 Percent Off The Final Game
