      Looks like Galaxy 2 will be $9.99 during the first week when it goes live today.



      The other Wii games coming this month look like they will be priced the same. That's much cheaper than retail and second hand. I payed $50 for Metroid Prime Trilogy. This is something I wanted to see Nintendo do for awhile; simple ISO dumps for a significantly reduced cost. I guess it's time to start looking for an external HDD option.

        What are the sizes gb wise for these wii games? I have mario Galaxy but I would be interested in Galaxy 2 if it's not going to eat up all my space.

          Galaxy 2 doesn't require to much space at 1.6GB. The vast majority of Wii games look like their 4GB or less. Metroid Prime Trilogy being one of the few exceptions, since it requires a dual-layer DVD.

            That's not too bad. I haven't played metroid in so long. Might look into that too.

              The external hard drive is a pretty simple set-up on the Wii U. However, you either need a powered hard drive or it's recommended that you use a Y-cable (which uses both USB ports on the back of the Wii U) to power the hard drive.

                    I'm all over the Metroid when is available.
                    Hopefully they select Kirby, Xenoblade, Okami and Paper Mario

                      I'm finding this to be the exact opposite, as someone who never owned a Wii before and has since been going back and playing recommended Wii games. I'm thinking the amount of waggle shovelware and HD movement elsewhere painted a negative perception.

                        Does Mario Galaxy 2 and Metroid need the wii mote and nunchuck? I never played either (aside from the first Metroid Prime) and would jump all over this but no nunchuck for me.

                          I believe the answer is yes to both. When you are in the E-Shop and select the game it will show you accessories needed...

                          Can't wait to grab Metroid

                            Exactly. While the Wii had a ton of crap shovelware there were plenty of good games for me.

                              Re: Wii U Discussion

                              I got a Target gift card for Christmas and thinking about putting it towards a Wii U. My kids have one, but I want one of my own. I will never play the one the kids have because the room they play in isn't comfortable for me plus I don't want them coming along and jacking up my save files. I already have Pikmin 3 but never play it. If I have my own Wii U I'm sure I will play it a lot. Also, I love the gamepad. I figure I can fire up a game and play on the gamepad while my wife watches chick flicks.

                              I'm looking at getting these games:

                              Bayonetta 2
                              Mario Galaxy 2 download
                              Need for Speed Most Wanted
                              Smash Brothers
                              Xenoblade
                              Fire Emblem - I can't wait to play this on the gamepad

                              Any "must have" games? The kids already have Mario Kart 8 and Lego City Undercover.

                                Donkey Kong Country: Tropical Freeze was my favorite game of 2014...for any system. I definitely recommend it 100x over.
