prfsnl_gmr: I have the two COD games. They have split screen multiplayer, system link capabilities, and off-TV play. Single player campaign is good ol' mindless shooting fun. If they are cheap I'd get 'em.

Re: Wii-U thoughts so far
Cool. Thanks!
Re: Wii-U thoughts so far
Watchdogs is clearanced to $7 at most walmarts if you can find it. I picked it up in the hopes that they did some interesting stuff with the gamepad, but all it has is an interactive map

Re: Wii-U thoughts so far
The only thing I've been able to find at Walmart is the 45th Anniversary LOZ Amiibo for $6 and $12. I'd love to find Giana Sisters and Watch Dogs for cheap.

Re: Wii-U thoughts so far
Yeah, I was pretty stoked to grab an 8-Bit Link and an OoT Link for $6 a pop when I got my Breath of the Wild... isn't Giana Sisters in the sub $15 range these days?
And I'm still slogging through a slow attempt at a Dreamcast set, but that list makes me want to go through the punishment of trying another one.
I do have a wonderful start at the Wii U set if the bug hits me.

Re: Wii-U thoughts so far
Giana goes for a little under $15 on Ebay right now. I should probably grab one while it's still that price. Watch Dogs isn't terribly expensive either. I'd just rather spend $14 for both then $30 for both.

Giana Sisters is $13.89 at Amazon right now and it's constantly fluctuating there. Could see it easily hitting $10.

I loved Giana Sisters DS...Twisted Dreams, however, was a bit too frustrating for my tastes. I am glad to have it in my collection, however, and I will get back to it someday...
Re: Wii-U thoughts so far
The best thing about Twisted Dreams is the metal version of the soundtrack by Machinae Supremacy. 
Speaking of Machinae Supremacy, this track has been one of my favorites for years.

Re: Wii-U thoughts so far
I finally got around to formatting a USB 3.0 flash drive for expanded WiiU space. 128 gigs was probably too big to combo with the regular 32 gig but here we are. I'll probably end up spending MORE money to validate having that much space 
My question is - some stuff moved over no problem, other games got errors saying they couldn't be moved. I can't figure out why - it's all digital titles. Has anyone else ran into this?
Also, is there a way to just move/copy Save files and not the entire folder of game files? I'd like to backup my Mario Kart save file since there is still some memory issue with my machine (and I can't play the game).
