Remember waaaaaay back in the day when Penny Arcade did that comic about how the Wii U could be used to play Dungeons and Dragons, with the gamepad being the dungeon master and the party being the wii remotes? Looking at the popularity and craze of the amiibos, this concept would be even more tantalizing.

Your character could be stored in NFC figures and have your character sheet and inventory stored in it and could carry over to different games and campaigns run by other people. There could be special boss enemies or traps you could buy and drop into the game that way as a physical DLC (because who wouldn't want an Amiibo Beholder am I right!?). Again, I wish people did more with the Wii U because it could be so awesome!!!!

I think I'd actually buy that regardless if it was an online game or played with just AI locally if it happened and I still had the WiiU. I think a lot of hours could be pulled from that, and easily still done with off tv play as well. It's a sad thing so few of the key game developers will even give it a look anymore because it keeps good ideas away.

For a lot of us, that's a bigger deal than saying "would buy."

So, wait, the game isn't finished yet? Is it fair to critique gameplay for a game that isn't finished yet?

It is finished. Review copies were sent out about a week ago.

That suuuucks. So many people were riding on that being some fantastic game that would be a must buy third party release unique to the system. It's a shame they found those issues were making public already to put it out there before you get a bunch of full reviews.

Splatoon sold about 1m units. It did a lot better than I thought.
