Posted January 21, 2014 Wow! That sucks. Indeed Bound to be an amazing game, though. I was on the fence thinking "I know it'll be good but I'm not excited", but then I saw the videos yesterday. Bring it on. Share this post Link to post Share on other sites
Posted January 21, 2014 WHAT!? Really!? WHY!? Why would they doooooo that!? What a missed opportunity I was really hoping we'd see more animal buddies this time... The rest of the game had better be fucking amazing to make up for it! (Though I'm sure it will be regardless...) Share this post Link to post Share on other sites
Posted January 21, 2014 GAME are offering this as pre-order bonus Share this post Link to post Share on other sites
Posted January 21, 2014 i suppose as something free its great....only considering the premium at GAME you're paying for it. Share this post Link to post Share on other sites
Posted January 22, 2014 That's one crappy pre-order bonus. Share this post Link to post Share on other sites
Posted January 22, 2014 Would've loved to see Cranky's walking stick as a pre-order bonus. Share this post Link to post Share on other sites
Posted January 22, 2014 So just Rambi as the animal buddies? /sigh/ Though at this point I don't know why I expected anything more. At least it has David Wise I guess, and the video replays could be good it they're implemented right but we'll see. Share this post Link to post Share on other sites
Posted January 22, 2014 GameXplain shares some juicy new info & video: Strange thing, when you pause this video at 3:02 it seems to hint at 5 playable Kong members and 5 animal buddies... But ofcourse, the empty spots might also just be Candy, Funky, Squawks and other NPC/A's... Share this post Link to post Share on other sites

But ofcourse, the empty spots might also just be Candy, Funky, Squawks and other NPC/A's... Maybe DLC could add levels and characters? Or they originally planned more characters and they cut back for what ever reason? Although NPCs does sound most likely. Share this post Link to post Share on other sites
Posted January 22, 2014 That's one crappy pre-order bonus.Indeed. Even more so considering you'd be paying more for the game, probably not getting in on the release date, and possibly not even getting the pre-order bonus, a la SM3DW cat sleeve. Share this post Link to post Share on other sites
Posted January 22, 2014 GAME are offering this as pre-order bonus *sigh* Yet another pre-order bonus that I'll track down on eBay and then buy when I spy one that's dirt cheap - around £3 inc postage - as there's no way I'll pre-order it there (Game) and pay probably £7 more than I would if I went with ShopTo...

Posted January 22, 2014 That's one crappy pre-order bonus. Yep. You'd think they would have great pre-orders to attract some buzz. Great music on that last video though... Share this post Link to post Share on other sites
Posted January 23, 2014 (edited) Official site is open with some great sample tunes. http://www.nintendo.co.jp/wiiu/arkj/ Here's the Gaf link with the music so you don't have to faff about. http://m.neogaf.com/showthread.php?t=756626 Dat 4th song!!!! @tapedeck get in here!!!

Posted January 23, 2014 11.4GB to download. Crikey, that's almost as big as a Dead Rising 3 patch :p Can use all controllers except Classic Controller. Weird. Share this post Link to post Share on other sites
Posted January 23, 2014 Dude on Gaf made a video of all the tunes. Timestamp 6:52 @tapedeck. 6:52!!!!!! Share this post Link to post Share on other sites
Posted January 23, 2014 11.4GB to download. Crikey, that's almost as big as a Dead Rising 3 patch :p Can use all controllers except Classic Controller. Weird. 11.4... that's over a third of the on board memory. I know it can be deleted then redownloaded for free... but still, Nintendo really should have added more capacity. Having siad that, if I get an SD card it has potential other uses as well. Is it possible to save Wii U data from a SD card onto a regular PC? Or would it need a less than official program to get past formatting issues or something like that? Share this post Link to post Share on other sites

You need an external HDD or USB drive (but it's not recommended) Share this post Link to post Share on other sites
Posted January 23, 2014 (but it's not recommended) why's it not recommended? sucks that sd's can't be used - why not? are they too slow? Share this post Link to post Share on other sites
Posted January 23, 2014 why's it not recommended? sucks that sd's can't be used - why not? are they too slow? USB drives are very volatile, they aren't designed to read/written to in high volumes and it's very likely you'll kill the drive fairly quick. You can do it and it'll probably be fine but your running the risk of losing your data. Share this post Link to post Share on other sites
Posted January 23, 2014 The new David Wise tracks has put me into massive hype mode for this game! BRING IT ON! Share this post Link to post Share on other sites

You'd think they'd support it, given that DKCTF doesn't use the clickable sticks... Oh well I don't care anyway. I shall be playing it like God intended; Wiimote and Nunchuck in hand!
