I remember this one, the follow up with random track thingy bob and ultra damage which often left me chugging around the track didn't really work for me.

they are talking a load of crap if you ask me, still can`t say i`m a big fan anyway.

i`ve had a wii u since around xmas 2012, it`s been like watching a kid grow up with all these updates, has anybody tried a factory wii u, i bet it looks a little shabby.

yeah frustrating as they can be sometimes i guess they know what they are doing.

a bit of a suprise this one, great racer, the suprise was beetles going fast i never seen one travel more than 30 mph down bradford road.

i can just about remember this game, it had that japanese nintendo look that only nintendo games look like, i can remember jumping over some fence type things while being chased by some huge thing, a bit like re4, might see what price it is on amazon/ebay.

love it!

every time i ask anybody about the last two call of dutys they say they are rubbish, i thought they was pretty good, maybe i have missed a top notch first person shooter that nobody has told me about, ok so they are not metroid prime but hey i had a good ride!

it depends what the screen is used for, as for gaming it is very under used, but as for the likes of youtube you can`t beat it as you can have a video playing on tv screen while you can browse on the gamepad, third party developers won`t put time and money into it because as far as they are concerned it`s economically viable, the next year or so should see weather things will turn round as nintendo bring out their big games that presumably will show what developers should be doing with the dual screen format, but if sales don`t pick up then i`m affraid it won`t matter how good the dual screen is.

project cars is a deffo for me, seen a demo on youtube and looks the buisness and lets face it wii u needs a decent serious racer, then bayonetta and smash.

@orravan85 you hold on mate, if you compare to the GameCube which was Nintendo's last home console that was in trouble the Wii u is very lacking, yes its got a load of games at budget prices and NES snes and gameboy advance games why? Gameboy advance games are designed for on the move anyway, the e shop should have GameCube games in hd (displayed of course) I got a Wii with GameCube ports and a 1080p upscailer which I have modified myself and most GameCube games not only look the part but play, don't get me wrong there are good games on Wii u, I like both call of dutys Mario kart is excellent, most of the games you mention are rehashed, mobile and tablets are taking over the handheld scene, Nintendo need to open their eyes, I would have put the best GameCube games on the Eshop straight away, there is a reason are on the downward slide, I know my stuff and love nintendo.

i got to be honest smash on wii u looks like a long player and has got my interest probably because there is not a lot else coming out on wii u, i`ve never known a console so short of games, i need drivers or it`s an xbox for me i`m afraid.

something to look forward to and maybe we will get a glimpse of what the wii u is capable of, sick of hearing underpowered to be honest.

i will give you my opinion on nintendo, yes we know they like to be innotive and we love them for that but they need to keep up with the times, for example the wii, very well designed and still looks well now and with a catalogue of mostly excellent gamecube games its worth its money, the wii u is of course backwards copatable with wii but to be honest i would not buy a wii as a stand alone console, yes there are good games on wii but not in the same class as gamecube, the wii u does have some good games, both call of dutys are excellent, marios are well you know everybody loves mario, zelda same as cube but hd, one need for speed mario kart excellent pikmin and so on but you can nearly add them up on both hands, people say the gamecube was in trouble then the wii u is burried already, i`m sure nintendo will have something up their sleeve and of course nintendo do like to make the archatecture of their consoles unique as to encourage developers to work indipendantly with the console which does make sence there is no point releasing a game exactly the same over three platforms, only problem is nintendo seems only to have ubisoft and sega on board at the moment, companys publicly say it`s to do with sales, i don`t think this is the case, maybe nintendo themselves are part of the problem who knows but i`m glad i still got all my gamecube games and with an upscale to 1080p with a little trick of my own, they don`t look too bad!
happy gaming folks!

not played any dsi ware at all.

if its free who cares?

will we ever get tvii here in the uk? the more i read about it the less i`m bothered, seems to be useless unless you got cable.

medal of honour not call of duty, activision lol

lets hope nintendo get some more games out there because for whatever reason a lot of american studios are not, me personally not too bothered about ea, i can only recall call of duty franchise and fifa 07 on gamecube being particularly good, thing is it`s not good being a nintendo fan when the big boys are saying "go get yourself a propper console"

it`s not possible that two gamepads can run on the same wii u system, you have to remember that a wii u game pad is a virtual addition to the wii u and is a major part of the wii u, it recieves and sends data to the wii u, the wii u can operate independantly from the gamepad but relys on a signal coming from the gamepad and vice versa, in essence you could say they are two pieces of tech, but they need each other, nintendo will have protected this very heavily, happy gaming, lets see what happens.

the wii u can ony support one gamepad, it`s intended for a second screen for multiplayer and multi functional that usually can not be operated by normal controller.

you can have a n64 modified now so it can display in 1080p, it does have an svideo signal anyway.

how about fighters destiny? command and conquer 64.

games on virtual conole n64, rr64, perfect dark but that is unlikely because microsoft own rare now, world driver championship, rush 2049 for some reason nintendo put crusin usa on wii vc, the lowest rated driving game?? how about quake ii,

back to the virtual console nintendo will not put gamecube games on because it will cost them too much, the same as they did not make the wii hi def, they are scared of going under like sega nearly did and many older companies did, fzero in 1080p anybody? what are they bothered about?

this is why nintendo need to open their eyes, not because i am typing on my laptop and somebody is watching what i write, nintendo make it very hard for anybody to do that, hence flash and other updates only come from nintendo.

it won`t be the gamecube as i and a lot of others wish, f zero gx would be downloaded in 1080p like hot cakes, but nintendo decide to release a bunch of old school games, game boy advance and a flirt with n64 games, nintendo wonder why the system is struggling.

@arkady77 it doesen`t look crap, it moves very fast and if you go to options and put camera on versatile it looks even better, clouds moving past the sun, i don`t think even forza does that! the handling takes some getting used to but once you get it, sweet as a nut!

got to say i`m looking forward to this cars project, not a lot of racers on wii u, what we got need for speed hectic smashing police pusuit racer, turn the contrast up in options to show it off a bit more, mario kart, short in single player infinate online, segas sonic mario kart klone not bad and lasts longer in single player a couple of others not worth mentioning in fact i got to go back to gamecube to play any decent racers (wii farri challenge (gets good if you practice)) other than that racers on nintendo`s home consoles are a joke.

i used to play pac land in arcades that side scrolling platform type game, also that gamecube gameboy advance link up what you get with r racing, good idea but expencive at the time and of course the origional, not a massive pac man fan but i guess there are many out there.

the gamecube sold around 19m in a six year period, ea released loads of games, i guess something deeper lies within, an argument with nintendo maybe, it`s catch 22 no fifa less sales, they are just updates really but they are always no 1 in charts, a big loss for nintendo whatever the reasons.
