Too early to start talking about rare/valuable Wii games?

Has anyone looked at the prices recently for Dokapon Kingdom?

WTF, that is some crazy shit.

Yeah, that's Amazon though. As insane as Ebay prices are nowadays, completed listings are a much better indication. I'm not buying games on either site anymore though, just locally and from Gamestop. I can't afford to be paying $10-15 shipping on every item.

That sucks, being in Canada definitely hurts the shipping costs. Of course, shipping from the US to Canada is such a pain thanks to the crappy US Postal Service.

eBay prices have shot up too. Look at this auction that ended just 3 days ago:
Madness!

Won't lie to you about the usps, it does suck most of the time but I'm not a big fan of FedEx either...ha ha

[Fragems]

That was probably one of the first five games I bought for the system back four or five years ago paid $20 for it. It's a decent game but I probably only spent 3-5 hours in it just wasn't that much fun playing solo with bots.

That is crazy that it is going for so much.

[darsparx]

Yeah but I think since it's on ps2 I'll get it on that, much cheaper that way ha ha

Amazon still carries it for $19.99 NEW.

I just had to go buy a copy of this right now. LOL. I've had it in my cart for months now, ever since someone picked it up in the "Look what I found thread." I figured that today seemed like a good day.


It's funny, I've had a modded Wii since it was pretty much able to be modded, so until about a year ago, I didn't own any physical games. But man, leave it to Nintendo to make me want to collect physical copies now. I wish they'd release an update to the WiiU to allow you to not have to use Wii controls on the gamepad. I look silly laying in bed with the gamepad propped up and the wii controls in my hands. LOL.

Good move buying it, next year you'll be glad when the price is nuts on this game.

Couldn't you play Fragile Dreams with just the Wiimote and Nunchuck on your WiiU? Or are you just using the pad as a view screen, but then where is the sensor bar?

[pvt_awol]

Basically when you play Wii games on the WiiU with the gamepad screen, you can only use it as a screen. You still control the action with the Wii Controls. And as for my sensor bar, it is above my TV, but that just happens to be at the foot of my bed anyway, so it works out for me.

Now, if this were in another room, it wouldn't work for games that require aiming. However, I've had absolutely ZERO luck getting my off screen WiiU gaming to work for anything more than about 10 to 15 feet away. LOL.

The first night I had my WiiU, I hooked it up in the living room and headed off to my bedroom for some in bed gaming. I got about 15 feet away from the WiiU, when the game pad displayed "Lost Connection."

- Very sad

Hmmm, I seem to still get a good connect at 15-20'. The only time i've lost connection is when I had a low battery.

I do have a question and hopefully there is a really easy solution i've overlooked.

When watching netflix...how do you turn the wii u gamepad off?

The WiiU gamepad has a sensor bar built in. They are in the black bar at the top where the camera is.

Really? I had no idea! Not that I'll be moving the WiiU anytime soon, but at least if that's true, I won't have to face the TV in bed. I could lay on my side or something. I'm going to try this!
