Wii U Discussion

AVOID SCRIBBLENAUTS

Doesnt even feel like a console game. Its more of a handheld game. It forces you to play on the gamepad.

Not my idea of a 60 dollar game

Because that's what it is. I have the same game on my iPad and paid 99 cents for it. Great game though. One of my favs.

Enjoying it so far. Am having trouble with the Wii mode though, upon loading it up the screen when all red and then everything just looked awful.

WiiU : hollams

Same here. Having a blast with it. Had it for DS and was a no brainer for the WiiU's larger screen.
Should have been 29.99 or 39.99 though probably

Re: Wii U Discussion

Daughter and I just finished playing Nintendoland for the first time together. We both had a blast and were laughing and cracking on each other.
Those are the moments that are priceless and worth thier weight in gold.

Re: Wii U Discussion

Didn't get much time in with either of the games I purchased (Mario/ZombiU)...spent most of my time messing around with the system and getting used to everything.

I got to say the miiverse is pretty awesome. Being able to seamlessly move to a social community without ever leaving the game is so cool. It adds a whole dimension that I never really anticipated being drawn to.

Well played Nintendo.

Agreed, they may have figured something out regarding online. I was playing some Black Ops, saw a new user posting and quick added to my friends list. Out and back in the game in 30 seconds.

I really wasn't starting to feel the value I was paying for with XBL. This has all the functionality I need, and some I didn't know I wanted...but I like.

Will any external hard drive work or is there a certain type ill need? Sorry I have no clue about external hard drives.

Also, if you guys had to choose three games what would they be (getting my wii and three games this weekend)?

Re: Wii U Discussion

The three that look most interesting to me are Mario, ZombiU, and Sonic All-Stars racing

Re: Wii U Discussion

Any one will work but i made sure i got a 2.5" drive so i wouldnt need another power source to run to the HD.

nintendoland, super mario, zombiu are my must haves. Going to get CoD soon too.

Re: Wii U Discussion

Nintendo becomes profitable when you buy just one game with your new WiiU:

"As soon as we get the consumer to buy one piece of software, then that entire transaction becomes profit positive," he explained.

"In the end, the business model is still to drive the install base of hardware, and then to drive a strong tie ratio with all of the other software and experiences for the consumer. And if we're able to do that, then we will create significant profit for the company."

Okay, I def want to make sure my HD wont need another power source to run. How big was the one you got??

[VTPack919]

^memory wise I mean. Is there any reason to get one as big as a couple terabytes if I'm just using it for the Wii? I'd imagine not.

Dont think that's the case. I believe they have a list out that is guaranteed to work. Any external that has an outside power source will work. Some that are powered through USB are iffy. Some (not Nintendo) recommend using a Y adaptor the use to plug into 2 of the USB ports on the Nintendo on models without an external power source.

Unless I am off my rocker.. but sure I seen that.

EDIT:
What external USB storage devices can be used with Wii U?
•What external USB storage devices can be used with Wii U? To ensure maximum performance between your Wii U and an external storage device, we recommend using a hard-disc drive (HDD) with a dedicated power source (i.e., using an A/C adapter). Due to the wide range of external hard drives, usability and performance will vary. For more information on external USB storage devices that can be used with Wii U, click here.
