RedShell

Why is time moving sooooooo slooooooowly? Nintendo kind of went against their new "late reveal/imminent launch" technique with MK8... I really wish they hadn't.

Out of stock now.That deal was never gonna last long.

Wow. Insane price! :awesome: I'm actually tempted by that.

MKTV YouTube highlight vids are starting to get posted on the games Miiverse community with a new YouTube tag: Such an awesome feature. :awesome:

I'll let Iwata do the honors

2 WEEKS... 2 WEEKS... 2 WEEKS... 2 WEEKS... 2 WEEKS... It's gonna feel like 2 fucking years. Yep, you can download friends and the worldwide top 10 ghost data.

Nah, it's not actually my system. Just trying to sort out this laptop for someone (it's full of crap/running really badly) so I reckon reformatting is the way to go. Cool, but can you go through the entire process without the need to insert a disc?

Anyone know if it's possible to reformat a system running Windows 8.1 without the need for a Windows 8 disc? According to Google it is, but still not 100% sure.

They are indeed, I think Nintendo must have heard @lostmario's all the cries about the "Blue Shell" so decided to include and focus on a new item for this purpose. But in reality it just increases the number of items that can defend against the Spiny Shell to 6: Super Horn Bullet Bill Star Golden Mushroom Triple Mushrooms Mushroom It's going to be interesting to see if there will be less complaints about the Spiny Shell as a result. But judging by your first experience with the item and the fact that it's a rare pickup, It seems like it won't make that much difference.

When you copy the link there's a "Start at: 0:00" button to the right of it, just set the correct time on that and then copy the link.

I can definitely agree on the audio output, was gutted to discover that I wouldn't be able to use my existing AV Receiver with the Wii U because it lacked a HDMI input. Other than that, the only thing I'd say is the standard battery life on the GamePad, which is pretty damn atrocious. Everything else, lack of decent online features, voice chat, account system, etc... can be amended via software.

... Or not. Which 2 games are you gonna get, H-o-T? I'd have thought you'd have most of the ones in the offer already. For me it's out of Mario Bros. U, Wind Waker HD, Mario & Sonic or Wii Party U. I'm leaning towards Zelda at the mo. Not like I'll be playing this free game anytime soon though.

Oh yeah, I forgot about that. I'll probably get rid of the game from the special edition too then. I believe he means selling the 2nd code, as technically it's another game.

Yeah, but I'm still getting the standard edition from ShopTo, which I'll then sell on once the special edition arrives.

I knew even before clicking play that there would be some cheesy live action malarkey in that ad, they just can't help themselves. To be fair though, the balance of cheese to gameplay footage is much better than it has been in the past. All gameplay approach for the UK ad please, Nintendo. Like this: *waits for it to be exactly the same as the US one, just with a British voice-over*

Indeed.It's just that I don't consider the Wii U to be underpowered hardware, far from it.

I still reckon that the biggest issue with the Wii U hardware is that 99.9% of 3rd party developers are lazy bastards. Or to quote Chris Seavor from the Conker's Bad Fur Day commentary..."fucking redundant cunts" And here's why:

I'm not so sure it does, dazzy. I always seem to find matches on Nintendo's other online games way quicker, and they blatantly have less players online than MK. Don't get me wrong, it's a cool feature at first (in fact I don't think they should remove it completely, it makes sense when joining friends for example) but getting stuck watching a random race, often from the very beginning gets so annoying after a while. I used to love it on MK7 (although this didn't happen very often at all) when I'd join and it would be right at the end of a race, with the screen fading out already.

This appears to be a much better application than Art Academy SketchPad. Is it also developed by Headstrong Games? Are they still planning to update the Wii U software?

Hehehe! You gonna be playing it though, or are you still on your wait until everything is out thingy?

Wow! Have you beaten the game, does it even have an end/credits? Nice. Who do you review for?

If it means I get into a game quicker, then yeah, I would.
