Nintendo WiiU : Thread 04

[Neon Ignition]

I've still never had trouble with the battery, there's rarely been enough to play on the system to cause a 4hr life not to be enough

Why the **** when I said this before did nobody agree?

[originalbadboy]

For the sake of ?20 its worth the upgrade .. Depends on the time of your gaming sessions I guess.

[dataDave]

I'm always close to a power source, so it's a non-issue for me.

I might buy one of them pro controllers for The Wonderful 101. An 80 hour battery life sounds funny.

[hudson]

Does the system come packed with a USB cable to charge the motherpad? If so, how long is it? Please say longer than the Sonys.

Nothing to set things in stone but the Australian Ratings Board has given a rating for Bayonetta 2 so it might not be far off now

Any games my 3.5 year old will enjoy? He hasn't managed to grasp traditional controller logics yet as he never get a chance :P I reckon he will like motion, tap, ipad interactions though.

[dataDave]

Not sure. My 3yr old niece is hopeless.

The charge lead is stupidly short. A male-female USB cable will sort it.

Pushmo World/Pullblox World is seeing a worldwide release on June 19th.

Never played anything in the series myself but it looks adorable on the Japanese website: http://www.nintendo.co.jp/wiiu/wkej/index.html

With Minish Cap on VC, Mario Kart 8 and now this Nintendo obviously don't want me to go outdoors or have the respect of fellow adults this June.

I have Pullblox on 3DS, and it's a pretty fun puzzler. Not very fast paced but still good for short and frequent sessions. I'm glad they're expanding it for the U.

As a side note, anyone know where to get Pro controllers cheap(er) here in the UK? If they're in stock at all (they're mostly not) they seem to be ?40 or over. Plus they only come in black, whereas my console is white. I would import from Play-Asia but after customs it works out (admittedly only slightly) more expensive...

[VR46]

I love Pushmo and Pullblox on the 3DS, some puzzles are really tough though.

Hoolak, the "motherpad" comes with a mains charger only in the box, though that lead must be about six seven foot long I would say from memory. Don't know if you can even get USB charging leads for it.

Zelda Williams will be involved with an E3 Ninty secret and says 'it's not what you think'

[Brad]

She said nothing about Nintendo and seeing as they aren't having a press conference I'd say it's probably not Nintendo but we'll see!

[EDDIE M0NS00N]

Decided to cancel my Wii U MK8 bundle preorder as i cant justify spending ?200 on a console & the last 2 gens of MK weren't that memorable anyway.

Will wait & see if the 8Gb Console becomes available again on the cheap, or maybe another store will knock down the older bundles cheaper again

Ah, thanks. That doesn't sound too bad. I've purchased the high capacity battery.
