The DS one is the most recent one I got (I got it at Best Buy in Las Vegas for 21 bucks used but looked damn near brand new). I like it a good deal thus far. Good selection of new tracks and classic ones too. My only gripe with it thus far is the fact that I have to use the A button to accelerate. They couldn't use the B button and move the reverse button to Y or X? Y doesn't even do anything in that game, I think. My right hand hurts after a while using the A button in that game. Oh and Mario Kart 7 also uses A for acceleration too. WHY? Give my hand a break and let me use the B button, not the A button.

^ I have the same problem, my thumb and that whole part of my hand cramps up from keeping A pressed. Although, my left hand isn't any better. That thumb cramps up too any time I use the D-Pad (which is most of the time!).

Re: Wii-U thoughts so far
Remember when Nintendo designed their handhelds to be comfortable and not just look good?

Re: Wii-U thoughts so far
They're probably comfortable for kids. I'm an adult, and my hands are larger than a child's. I bet that's all it is. My hand never crimps up from the Gamepad. Compare the Gamepad to the bottom half of a 3DS, it's MUCH larger.
Re: Wii-U thoughts so far
Get a circle pad pro. It expands the grip and makes it way more comfortable.
Maybe now Nintendo will acknowledge Metroid has a fanbase?

Re: Wii-U thoughts so far
For my 3DS XL, I got this thing:Makes holding it far more comfortable for adult sized hands. You can get one here.
PLAY KING'S FIELD.
Re: Wii-U thoughts so far
That looks fairly interesting and slightly protective but I bet that would not be comfy in a pocket.
