Posted December 28, 2014 I'm a christmas wreck, I barely remember even posting it! As for charging the pro pad - why not just use something else with USB? If I've got my laptop close to my wii u and the pad's dying I usually just use that or if it's off. USB chargers are the fuuuuturrrreeeeeeee! I didn't even think of that!

Posted January 2, 2015 (edited) Don't bother with Captain Toad or any of the Mario games. Definitely get Monster Hunter, Pikmin 3, Donkey Kong, Wonderful 101, Smash Bros. and Bayonetta 2. Edited January 2, 2015 by Wii Share this post Link to post Share on other sites

How can you say that when you've not played toad? Yet everyone who actually has loves it? You played through 3D world? Share this post Link to post Share on other sites
Posted January 2, 2015 3D World is a solid 8. Too soon? Share this post Link to post Share on other sites
Posted January 2, 2015 Haha I'd forgotten about that 8. Quality moment. This on the other hand.... Don't bother with Captain Toad or any of the Mario games. Share this post Link to post Share on other sites
Posted January 2, 2015 In fairness a lot of people that got irate hadn't played it so... Share this post Link to post Share on other sites
Posted January 2, 2015 (edited) Whilst unlike Wii I wouldn't categorically tell someone not to bother with the Mario games on Wii U, I do think they all look like acquired tastes. The visual style of NSMB is enough to put me off tbh, but then I've never been a fan of 2D Mario anyway. And with 3D World it depends if you want such level design from your console Mario, or if the larger worlds of 64 - Galaxy 2 are more you thing. I think I'd buy it though, and 2-4 player does appeal to me. Captain Toad I think looks great. Edited January 2, 2015 by Retro_Link Share this post Link to post Share on other sites
Posted January 2, 2015 I've ordered NintendoLand off shopto purely because it was under a fiver. No interest in the Mario or Toad games, I'll pick up Smash and then wait for Zelda/Starfox I think. Share this post Link to post Share on other sites

Posted January 2, 2015 Have you played the original Xenoblade for Wii? Yeah, didn't really get too far into it if I'm honest. But by then I'd really gone off the Wii. New one looks alright. Share this post Link to post Share on other sites
Posted January 2, 2015 Let's please stop this here. New year and all that. Share this post Link to post Share on other sites
Posted January 2, 2015 You should pop your Xenoblade disc in your Wii U and give it another chance. Great game you've got there without having to spend another penny. Share this post Link to post Share on other sites
Posted January 2, 2015 Yeah, didn't really get too far into it if I'm honest. But by then I'd really gone off the Wii. New one looks alright. You need to play this game and finish it. It's arguably the best game on the Wii. Not just that but one of the greatest games ever. You know what? I need to finish this game. I got right to the end then stopped because I didn't want the masterpiece to end. Share this post Link to post Share on other sites
Posted January 2, 2015 Can not believe my luck. Tesco just reduced it down to £209. That's £26 cheaper than I paid on Amazon only a few hours ago. I might cry. Share this post Link to post Share on other sites
Posted January 2, 2015 Cancel your Amazon order? Nope. Already dispatched. In my excitement I opted for the Prime trial to get it tomorrow. Played by the internet. Share this post Link to post Share on other sites

Posted January 2, 2015 Order from Tesco and return the Amazon one? Call Amazon first, explain the price differemce, ask them to reimburse or you'll return it. They'll probably do a partial refind. Share this post Link to post Share on other sites
