Nintendo WiiU : Thread 04

Those are third party titles though. They don't count in my world.

No. That offer is wank. They should force people to download and play The Wonderful 101 instead, and if they don't clock 120hrs on it before July 31st the pad blows up in their faces.

That's me convinced!

On Nintendo's site it doesn't say anything about MK8 having to be the limited edition - just says to register the game - https://www.nintendo.co.uk/Campaigns...on-879238.html

Any version! Sweet! I'm in.

Anywhere cheaper than thegamecollection.net's ?36.95 delivered?

I bet people in US territories don't get this offer. It's rite, I've already got everything worth owning on that list anyway. **** 'em.

People are quick to dismiss NSMBU because it's not better than SMB3 or SMW, I reckon some of you MK8'ers should give it a chance.

Given that the Limited Edition is ?60 (for a blue plastic shell) I'd argue that these aren't really free games. They're games for ?20 /humbug.
Can you play Wind Waker on the gamepad screen?

looking on the Nintendo website registering any copy of the game gets you the free download they even talk about download versions in the pdf below, nowhere dose it say only the overpriced special edition gets you the free game.

Of course ... I have should have known that!

The new direct was outstanding, looks like the true next gen arrives in 30 days,

pre order cancelled for watch dogs ps4, there is no way any game can compete with Mario kart 8 for quite some time .

Think I'm going to be purchasing myself a Wii U again this weekend if my finances can manage it. Been looking online and some cracking prices on some of the launch Wii U games. Just out of interest how are people managing with the 32GB has anyone needed to expand yet?

It does wind me up how they completely disregard and avoid all mention of the 3D F-Zero games ever happening.

I've not bought much digitally, if you do need to expand a USB memory stick will suffice. And those are cheap as chips for 16/32GB etc.

Only digital games I'll ever have are ones given away for free (like this MK8 offer) so 32GB should be alright for a while. Digital is too restrictive on Ninty platforms. Hope they fix this at some point.

Ok thx for the advice guys. I'm looking at the Zelda WW or Lego Undercover pack and best price I have seen is ?220, is this the best price around? Or should I perhaps look at second hand market?

[VR46]

Do a search on www.hotukdeals.com and see what comes up.

The MK8 bundle is ?219 at Tesco, but there's a ?20 off voucher - TDX-JGCV - so ?199 all in. Presumably it's a digital copy of MK8, but still valid for the offer.
