Wii-U thoughts so far

Isnt that Mario Golf a 3ds game?

So Mario Kart 8 has a new item that is a horn that stops enemies and destroys things, including blue shells.

And it looks like Battlemode might be fixed, over the Wii version:

Free game with MK8? Nice

Choice of 4 games in the US: New Super Mario Bros U, Pikmin 3, The Legend of Zelda: Wind Waker HD or Wii Party U

Choice of 10 in Europe: New Super Mario Bros U, Pikmin 3, The Legend of Zelda: Wind Waker HD, Wii Party U, Nintendo Land, Game & Wario, Sonic Lost World, Mario & Sonic at the Sochi Winter Olympic Games, The Wonderful 101 or Monster Hunter Tri Ultimate


Unlucky Americans. I already own 5 of these games, and I'm not interested in the Olympics game, so I'll be choosing from Sonic, Monster Hunter, Wonderful 101 or Game & Wario.

Battlemode on race tracks is an interesting concept. I hope they have some dedicated battle arenas though, or a DLC pack that has them. Id gladly pay $10 just to have Double Decker from the N64 in it. Countless days of battles on that map. If they add those arena maps and have lan multiplayer, Ill buy a second Wiiu. For now I am waiting for the Nintendo store to come back so I can buy some Refurb Wiimote+s.

Yeah, posted in wrong thread..... Mod can move if they were so inclined or just delete.

Hmmm, the big question is which game do I not mind owning a digital copy of (I think I will skip over Ninty titles as I like Phyiscal copies).

I'm trying to predict which will drop in price sooner. I'll probably go with whichever is most expensive in physical when I pick up MK8.

Sonic Lost World is tempting me for the additionl free DLC right now, but I'm up for Monster Hunter or Wonderful 101 too.

I reckon Game & Wario will drop fairly quickly just like Warioware games tend to, and I don't think it's as worth it as some of the more 'complete' games.

It's a shame I already own all of those games, apart from Game & Wario, Wii Party U and the Mario & Sonic Winter Olympics game.

Out of Game & Wario and Wii Party U, I wonder which is the better title. Both had mixed responses. It's a shame Game & Wario isn't a Warioware game.

I own Wii Party U, but I've never played it. I could give you my thoughts soon if you like.

Worth considering though - the reason I own it is because Wii Party U (with a bundled Wii Remote +) cost £5 less on Amazon than a Wii Remote + did on it's own. If you're in the market for physical copies of either, Wii Party U could net you an extra controller too.

hrmm too bad I already have the limited edition zelda wii mote, and the remote with the attachment for plus(though we did have to replace our nunchuck thanks to a weird walking error where now looking back I probably need to clean it out just like my ps2 controllers that I got with that ps2 XD) but sadly the only mario party I've truly played is the one on the gba which I will admit is very fun...

If you have not seen the GameCenter CX with NES Remix. Arino takes on 3 kids, it is really sweet to see the kids getting so excited and worked up playing.
