Huh, never noticed that in any other game. I'll look into it. Thanks.

I'm playing this on the Wii U, mainly on the GamePad. However, when I turned on the TV I noticed that there was a bit lag between TV and GamePad. When I pressed Jump, Shovel Knight jumped on the GamePad slightly before he did so on the TV screen - and the sound came out a bit later too. Has any of you noticed this?

So, I guess we got our answers in Ep 9

Two can play that game: http://www.theguardian.com/science/2011/mar/07/safe-level-alcohol-consumption As Sheikah said, studies do not agree. But more recent studies have shown that it is a myth, which he also pointed out. In the 60s, smoking wasn't bad for you either.

I would say that it's similar to having some candy or a coke every day. You get addicted to it but not to a degree where you can't control it and such. If you're trying to lose weight, though, stop drinking and replace it with diet coke or whatever. However, it's a common misunderstanding that a a little alcohol every day is good for you. It does nothing good to your body - it might not do anything bad par se, but saying that it's good for your body is wrong.

Is it worth getting back to this show? Stopped watching about the time where it handled the aftermath of Thor 2 (because I hadn't seen the movie) and haven't got back into it since then.

I play regularly but only offline - I find the input lag rather horrible at times and as I still have trouble beating 3 level 8 CPUs (free for all) I believe that I'm not ready for online just yet. Mind - I do win when I pick my own fighters, though, so I've got better. Other than that I'm working on Events - getting rewards without using costumisation is hard and challenging, taking up a lot of time.

Just got home from London yesterday night after three very good days there, first time ever in England as well. I felt cold, it was windy and chilly in general. However, I saw LOTS of people running around in shorts and t-shirts (with short sleeves)! Is the English less cold than others in general?

Local multiplayer is tough without enough Pro Controllers - and it is a cheaper option to just buy one adapter if you already have 4 GC controllers. I completely agree with you, it's so bad that the adapters aren't in stock but I also firmly believe that they will restock come January so it should be possible to survive until then with any of the other control schemes.

You'd need a shitload of Pro Controllers, Wiimotes, 3DS's and GamePads? :P Or hope that one of the mates has an adapter.

I think it would work for most people. They just need to give it a chance. I fully believe the adapter will come in stock again (as I said, Nintendo has foolishly underestimated the demand) so it's just a temporary solution to the problem. I also think that many people actually have the Pro Controller - at least most who was going to buy Smash in the first part. You didn't do anything. You were of course unlucky which happens to some people - most people throughout life. Of course it's not the best solution, we agree, but at least you'd be playing the game here and now - isn't that better than not playing it?

I'm thinking about going to the Stockholm-concert with either my girl friend (she's very understanding!) or some fellow Zelda-fans. Just need to see the prices before considering it fully.

Seriously, guys, just play with the Pro Controller - it works absolutely fine and requires only a little in terms of getting used to. Then you can buy the GC Adapter later when it comes in stock again if you still want it. Nintendo apparently underrated the demand for the adapter and will most likely be producing more as we speak - it's a money machine for them, no way they won't try to meet the demands.

Yah, I know - I just want to see more of them!

That's a damn solid line-up! Leto as Joker? Why not! Shame that this isn't tied in with the one from Arrow / The Flash.

@The_Peeps: Wireless or wired connection to Wii U? The speed doesn't really matter to lag, unfortunately it's way more complicated. I've experienced lag - both graphics-wise and input-lag. It isn't bad for the most part but noticeable.

Got to Chapter 8 in Bayonetta 2 yesterday. I'm enjoying this a lot more than 1, for the most part because they have updated Witch Time so it's now a bit easier to hit. The story is more interesting as well.

Yeah, I'm also equially losing and getting no 1 or 2 in free for all vs three lvl 8 CPU. At first I thought that I just sucked but glad to see that it's not only that. The game is harder than previously, but that is good.

I don't like that there are so many character-specific challenges in this. I don't want to clear All Star on Hard with Duck Hunt Duo!

I just bought a ticket to London for next week and I plan on buying an amiibo as the prices in England are about 2/3 of the price in Denmark I think - but which store in London should I head into to find games and amiibo the cheapest (in general)? And what is the retail price of amiibo?

You bought directly from eShop? Because buying the game digitally from elsewhere wouldn't let me pre-download it, despite what I was told earlier. Downloading now but it takes a hell of a time, even with a 40 mbit connection it is really slow. Is there any way to see how fast something is downloading? (It says 2:02 on the downloads screen! )
