Re: Wii U Discussion

We have Lego Movie on PS4, it's awesome.

I ended up canceling Donkey Kong. I have it on 3DS and the reviews point to it's pretty much the same game just much more difficult, even moreso than the Wii version was. Which I hated for it's difficulty spike. It's mainly for my kids, if they can't have fun with it, then meh. Got Rayman Legends instead.

Re: Wii U Discussion

I bought the Wii LAN adapter to fix my connection issues through wireless on the Wii U. I tried all the tips online but never could maintain a constant connection even after installing a second router in my game room so the signal was super strong, now it is solid with the adapter. Question though, every time I press the Home button it says that a download has finished and when I go to my Download Management screen it says it is currently downloading something, but I have no idea what it is downloading. Anyway to tell?

Re: Wii U Discussion

Girlfriend grabbed one of these for me as an early birthday present, all I got is the two games that game with it (Mario and Luigi) and Mario Kart. I plan on picking up the Mario 3D World as well as Pikmin 3 at some point soon and am anxiously awaiting Mario 3 being added to the VC but thats apparently months out still. Anyone heard if and when they will add Gamecube games to the VC? Ive heard the architecture so to speak is there its just the Wii U doesnt support Gamecube controllers but I assume they could re-map the game to support the remotes, girlfriend is dying to play Mario Sunshine again which is why I ask. Lastly, I see guys listing their Nintendo ID, Im sure I set it up but for the life of me cant even remember what it was and have no idea where to find that info, any ideas?

Mine is always doing that. It's annoying, it's Nintendo's lack of online understanding that leads these issues IMO.

Re: Wii U Discussion

With my new network setup using the LAN adapter I decided to download DK Tropical Freeze. The download still took a while, at least an hour, but I'm glad the connection was finally good enough to do that.

DK Tropical Freeze is fun, but it is definitely the typical DK game, pretty tough. I've only made it halfway through the second world, but the levels have been fun. The first world's boss wasn't too hard, but this isn't a game where you hit the baddie three times like other Nintendo games. I must have hit him 8 times before he died.

Congrats. You'll very much enjoy it. I play mine more than the PS4. I got the Mario/Luigi U bundle and traded that game in for $30 and got Mario 3D World. That's been my favorite game for the last five months. Can't wait to get Mario Kart 8 and Super Smash Bros.

I'm sure there will be a Mario Kart bundle, as Nintendo will do anything to move systems.

Re: Wii U Discussion

Still plugging away at DK with the missus, well into World 3. Not sure how the secret levels are found, I'm assuming spelling out K-O-N-G and the puzzle pieces? Haven't got any secret levels yet. The game is super challenging and makes me enjoy it even more than 3D World. It is awesome!

I haven't gotten a secret level either, also haven't completed all KONG letters and puzzles in a level yet either. I usually go after those after beating the main story. I like this better than 3D Mario World too despite its difficulty. I'm not sure what it is about 3D Mario World, but it isn't grabbing me. I much preferred the Super Mario Wii U game, I loved that one as a matter of fact. Maybe it is because I tried to play those too back to back, or maybe it is the exploding fart noises that Mario and friends make in the 3D World.

Get into pole position for Mario Kart 8 on Wii U with the Mario Kart 8 Limited Edition software bundle

Keep your tyres warm in advance of the 30th May launch of Mario Kart 8 with the Super Mario Kart promotion on Nintendo eShop – starting 27th March

This was actually just announced this morning, but it's for Europe only so far. I'd be surprised if North America doesn't get a bundle of some kind though pretty soon. I've held out on getting a Wii U this long, so I might as well wait a bit longer to see if N.A. gets a MK8 bundle. I can't wait to play Tropical Freeze, MK8, 3D World, etc.

That's actually just a software bundle, not a console bundle.

I'd like to have that shell too, but I'm doing all digital on the Wii U from here on. Maybe I can find one on ebay after they release.

+1 on going digital. Was thinking about doing the same as my son is the main player of the wii u and you know how kids are with disks. Not sure what HDD to get though. Suggestions?
