Nintendo WiiU : Thread 05

[Nu-Eclipse]

Taiko no Tatsujin Wii U aside, I'm truly struggling to think of anything worth importing for region-free gaming on my Wii U.

Crazy thing about it? There was PLENTY to import for the original Wii when region-free became a possibility with HBC/GeckoOS.

How about being able to play Wii games on the off screen controller, and run a few emu's.

An excellent question! My copy of Ryu ga Gotoku 1&2 is shouting at me to play it.

Would like to pick this up too.

Sadly I am on a WiiU version that doesn't support it but will on board for this reason when I can be. My WiiU is like new, time it got some use.

Project Zero 5 gets a shredding in EGs review

I'm still not over reeling from the fact that Project Zero/Fatal Frame has had four sequels.

The original was fun and quirky - but I didn't feel there was anywhere for it to go. I can only assume the sequels are simply "more".

One would assume that the Wii U's extra grunt (in comparison to the Wii, obviously) would allow it to run emus better if homebrew can be enabled on it.

The Wii struggled badly with things like MAME and Neo-Geo.

Like most sequels.

First was brilliant. The second is regarded the best but I couldn't get into it. I enjoyed what I played of the third but again didn't hook me like the first.

I am looking forwards to this one even if a part of me is just excited to dust off the Wii U. I haven't read the reviews but if it's more of the same I'd be happy with it. It is a shame about the censorship...

Massively mixed reviews on this one.

To be fair, there were mixed reviews of the first one on Xbox - but I loved it.

That's encouraging. Mine is processing at GAME so I hope it's good...if it's not, they seem to be going for 80 odd quid on Ebay at least, so I should be able to get my money back.

It's actually my first Project Zero.

[nakamura]

Project Zero games are all good. Slow, a little sluggish by design and scary as hell.

The WiU has now outsold the Dreamcast.

Is there any stopping Nintendo now?

It's only taken three years to beat the Dreamcast's sales figures of 18 months!
