Ashley Posted August 16, 2013 Share Posted August 16, 2013 Flink, did you not hear that Flubit had an offer on that if you buy one controller you get two free? It's all fine. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Agent Gibbs Posted August 16, 2013 Share Posted August 16, 2013 Well my WiiU pro controller arrived from Amazon and i love it.....but after reading they are giving them away i'm tempted to say the 2 player indicator light is broken :p send back the faulty one, keep the others and if Mokong's prediction proves true, sell them on ebay, the money will help with the guilt Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Rummy Posted August 16, 2013 Share Posted August 16, 2013 Awww. Anyhow I agree, send the faulty back and then just keep the second one. Maybe sealed for a while(tbh you could use it and claim you thought it was a compensatory one or something) until they ask for it back. Who's paying postage on these returns anyway? If it was me I'd send the faulty then just keep the other two. As for the pad itself I haven't made the most use out of it yet, but I do agree it feels lovely and light. Might end up using it for MonsterHunter when I finally get back to it. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Rowan Posted August 16, 2013 Share Posted August 16, 2013 I was bored so I rewatched the Indie reel to see which games are new and which are exclusives. Cubemen 2 - Already on PC, Mac, iOS Festival of Magic - Also coming to PC, Mac, iOS, Android FORCED - Also coming to PC, Mac, 360, PS3, Ouya Giana Sisters: Twisted Dreams - Already on PC, 360, PS3 Ittle Dew - Already on PC, Mac, Ouya Knytt Underground - Already on PS3, Vita, PC March of War - Already on PC. Coming to iOS & Android. Is F2P Monkey Pirates - Already on PC, Mac nihilumbra - Already on iOS & PC Pure Chess - Already on PS3, Vita QUBE: Directors Cut - Original already on PC, Mac but DC exclusive to WiiU Scram Kitty and his buddy on Rails - WiiU exclusive So Hungry - Also coming to PC Squids Deluxe - Original already on iOS, PC, Mac, Android…Windows Phone but Deluxe looks a WiiU exclusive Tengami - Also coming to iOS, PC, Mac Teslagrad - Also coming to PC, PS3, Mac TNT Racers - Already on Wii, PSP, PS3, 360 but WiiU has extra content Wooden Sen'SeY - Already on PC, Mac 18 games in total but 12 are already available elsewhere in some form. Only 1 game is WiiU exclusive, but interestingly 12 is/will be console exclusive (not counting Ouya as a console:hehe:) if they aren't announced for PS3/360 in the future which is decent. PC will undoubtedly be the indie machine but it seems like WiiU is becoming a possible console exclusive alternative for PC games. A lot of mobile/tablet games being ported too.

f00had Posted August 16, 2013 Share Posted August 16, 2013 Do the Pro Controllers need batteries or what? Might get some next month if they're still cheap in preparation for Mario Kart and Smash Bros multiplayer sessions next year. The Wii Remote I ordered arrived yesterday, here are some photos: You'll notice on the box it says Wii U instead of Wii And on the back of the jacket there's a hole for easy access to the sync button, no more faffing about taking off the jacket and battery case just to sync remotes.

I thought they'd rebranded everything Wii U on these things... but no!! ... Wii is 3 places on the box, and Wii U once! That's ridiculous! Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Agent Gibbs Posted August 17, 2013 Share Posted August 17, 2013 lets face it, the summer update is more likely to remove TVii from the WiiU right now than we are of actually getting the service Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Fierce_LiNk Posted August 17, 2013 Share Posted August 17, 2013 Last I recall hearing was Spring 2013 so... It's fine. All we need to do is ask @Serebii to verify when the seasons take place. I think you'll find that Spring lasts from March to June. Summer is just July. Autumn is August to November. Everything else is winter. So...aww fuck.

Fierce_LiNk Posted August 17, 2013 Share Posted August 17, 2013 @Fierce_LiNk(and others) what are you actually using your pro pad for atm? I'm using it for player 2 on Tekken and for Sonic Racing. Will also be using it for future multiplayer games, too. So, Smash Bros, Mario Kart, etc. Unless there's a superior Wiimote option. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Agent Gibbs Posted August 17, 2013 Share Posted August 17, 2013 i've used it for Super Luigi, Pokemon Rumble and Ducktales i plan on using it for all games where the gamepad screen just mirrors the tv, as i find it too distracting having the image twice and a waste, so the pro pad is perfect for this, and if i then want off TV play i switch. Where areyou guys buying the extended battery pack from for the WiiU? Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
RedShell Posted August 17, 2013 Share Posted August 17, 2013 @Fierce_LiNk(and others) what are you actually using your pro pad for atm?Got mine when I was playing through MH3U, have since used it for Tekken, Sonic Racing, all of my VC/Wii U download titles that support it and most recently, the W101 demo.Will definitely be using it for the full version of W101 too. And when I'm not playing Wii U, my Pro Controller is still being put to good use on PC. Currently playing Just Cause 2 using it. Yep, Pro Controller is amazing.
