Wii U - thread 3

[dataDave]

I could actually get rid of my 360 if they did that!

After loving TW101 I keep thinking I should give Bayonetta a second chance so this would be welcome news but after how TW101 sold surely Nintendo will wait to see how Bayonetta 2 sells before even looking into the viability of this?

The 4th post on the NeoGAF is why I'm not getting my hopes up:

"I'm all for it.

I wish I had a Wii U so I can help in Miiverse, I guess I'll help on Twitter."

[VR46]

Sure they've quite a few Twitter posts on the subject and only last week said about hoping to bring it out before/at same time as the follow up.

Link I'm on about

Are the EU Virtual Console SNES releases generally the crippled 50Hz versions? (Apart from stuff like Earthbound and Harvest Moon.) Not my primary reason for getting the console but some SNES gaming in bed with the gamepad would be great.

Nope almost all are NTSC 60hz, due to the amount of complains Nintendo got on the Miiverse.

Off the top of my head only Balloon Fight, Kirby's Adventure, Harvest Moon (It did get a PAL release) and Super Metroid are 50hz the rest are all 60hz thankfully.

In the eshop full description it tells you if they are the USA version or not.

Been playing Mega Man X2 and, Brawl Brothers/Rushing Beat Ran and Final Fight 3 recently all 60hz.

Trying to do a system transfer but cannot get online with the wii to do it. Well, I can get online but not download the system update. Has anyone else had issues? Wondering if its generally down.

I had exactly the same problem; all you need to do is install the latest version of shopping channel through the homebrew channel (if that makes sense).

I don't think I can go into any details on the forum but certainly drop me a pm if you need any help.

Ah ok will look for that later! Thanks

Are NSMBU and Luigi U actual disc copies in the Wii U console bundle? I'm thinking of getting one, but I'd rather have physical copies as the harddrive is so small already.

[wakka]

Both games come on one disc but neither are download copies.

[Guts]

Thanks, wakka.

I am having my own launch day delivery trauma (bit like the PS4 thread). My Wii U has been delivered to a neighbour at home and my copy of Mario 3D World still hasn't turned up to the office. Wargh!! If it doesn't show I'm gonna cop it from Argos on the way home :@

Meanwhile the console itself has probably already been pawned for crack money.

Wii U lifetime sales in the UK already surpassed by the PS4 and XB1.

As great as 3D World looks, and for all the rave reviews, it still can't mask the fact that Nintendo have made big mistakes with how they've handled the marketing and the selling of Wii U. Year headstart advantage well and truly gone.

If/when they do a Monster Hunter 4 HD pack, I'll get another, but otherwise I haven't missed mine at all.

I think this is a major statemnet that all people want is more Fifa , Call of Duty , Battlefield, nintendo games are always high quality Pikmin, Zelda HD and Mario 3d World, but they just dont make enough and maybe its not what people want theses days, which is sad, they need to get F Zero on it, hopefully that could puss sales, but i hate to say it seems doomed to failure.
