Multi-player video from Gamesradar; at 2:25 in the video it mentions controller options for player 2 (the survivor). Interestingly, it confirms WiiMote and Nunchuk as an option for playing in multiplayer, as mentioned before. Cheers @Mokong X\-C don't know why the embed was ballsed-up.

Damn! Beat me by 5 years!

Kind of, it draws power from 2 ports, but the data only passes through one of them, so it has a spare port for the power when in full data transfer, so not to 'turn off', or just be underpowered for the job at hand.

I've had 3 external HDD drives in my time, and the 2 best I've used come from 'Imation' (500 GB) and 'Buffalo' (1 TB). I'll be using my Imation 500 GB with my Wii U as it was supplied with a Y-USB cable, which basically allows data access and power consumption at the same time without sharing and lessening either one. Nintendo have recommended the use of such a cable and I strongly recommend it, too. Make sure you pick one up if not supplied with one, or without it's own external power supply. That's nearly the exact Buffalo model I have, I have the USB 3.0 update. I've had it for 3 months and have had no problems with it whatsoever. It isn't supplied with a Y shaped USB cable though (at least mine wasn't), and so you'll need to pick one up separately.

Yeah, amazing. It's on the edge of your seat stuff. The vid with the safe house is cool. It looks like you have to make your safe house safer, by cleaning out areas and locking them down, etc. SO, cool.

There is a local one-on-one multiplayer mode, where one player has a pro-controller playing as a survivor, the other on the gamepad placing zombies by using the touch screen. All this is in a kind of capture the flag mode. Sounds a bit weak, but looks a lot of fun, especially with upgrades to your zombies, etc.

The fruit staring is back...(looks at pineapple)

Good question. Anybody? Is it for voice chat? (Not really).

Oh, I'm ready for this, and this is a day-one purchase for me. It'll tide me over until the WiiU arrives.

It does. Even after getting more and more disillusioned at the NSMB series, this now looks to be perfectly taking it through SMWorld (my favourite 2D Mario) and onto even greater heights. I am now, officially, tempted to purchase this. Damn, my aching wallet.

12 different users?

Yeah, it's completely based off of population. The bigger the population the more College points.

Whoops, yes. Major jubilation at Obama's win frazzled my brain.

Any news of an English version?

Thankfully, Obama has won. Another 4-8 years of Republicans would mean the closure of stem cell therapies and research, abortion laws rescinded, women's rights being affected, low earning populace without the right to any form of health-care, etc. Well, if the Democrats win next time at least Scientific research has another 4 years of un-interrupted growth within the USA, unlike under Bush and pals.

Nice job, lol. Shame that Nintendo Network thingy won't be coming true then. Arggghhh, you got my hopes up, haha.

That UK Box Art is complete pants compared to the other Art we've seen. Much prefer the Chase McCain swinging on a Batman-style ascension rope whilst brandishing his 'badge'.

Agreed. Let's wait and see.

I'm sure it's only a 2-player multi-player affair. But, if they do allow you to use the Wii Remote and Nunchuck for the Multi-player, why wouldn't this also be used in the single player? If it's not in the single player it's probably because of the functionality of the Gamepad and Ubisoft thought it strange to have the GamePad sitting on your lap whilst using the remote.

Absolutely sure I've never heard about this before, but take a look at this picture. The reverse side of the ZombiU box-art clearly shows 1 Wii Remote and Nunchuk compatibility (obviously for local multi-player). Has this been confirmed???

Zavvii seem to have a bit of bad reputation on this site, but I've used them and their 'sister' website The Hut for a long time now and have had no problems. Fast delivery, cheap prices, etc.

I just realised what will make my hype levels soar, just release the goddamn thing, so I can play it.

Quite simply, I buy all Nintendo's consoles at some point. I was a little late to the Gamecube (no money, poor student) and Wii (big life changes), but have been very psyched for the 3DS and the WiiU. Not going to turn the launch down. Buying for Nintendo's exclusive 1st and 2nd party games, hopefully with some excellent gems from 3rd parties along the way.

Same here Wooks63. After 10 years of marriage she knows the answer to the question 'Do you love me or Nintendo more?'

No, I think the European one is called 'Animal Crossing: Patience is a Virtue'.
