Posted March 18, 2013 I still think GamePad features are a really hard sell through adverts. They made it look a lot more exiting than "it's the D-pad menu...on a screen". Anyway, there are currently no plans for supporting the Wii U version in terms of DLC. Share this post Link to post Share on other sites

Posted March 20, 2013 ONM Review: "A massively entertaining racer that grabs and runs with the power of the Wii U. It's tough, but we're Nintendo gamers.

Posted March 21, 2013 (edited) Right "someone on MV reckons" the analogue triggers on the 'first version of the classic' controller works with this!! Anyone have one to test this out? He said you just map the accelerator and brake to the triggers... Edited March 21, 2013 by madeinbeats Share this post Link to post Share on other sites
Posted March 21, 2013 Right "someone on MV reckons" the analogue triggers on the 'first version of the classic' controller works with this!! Anyone have one to test this out? He said you just map the accelerator and brake to the triggers... Haven't tried that. Mapped it to the right stick of the GamePad though and that works Let us know how it plays. My one isn't due to be delivered 'til next week It plays very well. It's a gorgeous game, very well made. It's also infuriating. The rubber-banding is worse than Mario Kart's in my experience (I still win despite the rubber-banding in Mario Kart), and even with a decently off-roadable car, the moment I hit a bit off-road, I suddenly become unable to steer :/ But yeah, it's a great game Share this post Link to post Share on other sites
Posted March 21, 2013 Managed to get an hour or so on this tonight, really enjoying it so far! I don't normally go for racers but this is probably the most fun I've had with one since Burnout 2 (my God, if this had crash junctions I'd be in heaven!). Had to stop playing after the game locked on me when I hit the home button to post an iminent dive off a cliff. Shame. Share this post Link to post Share on other sites
