dazzybee Posted September 24, 2015 Posted September 24, 2015 I'm waiting for a surprise Direct in the next month with a biggish game for November/December. Huh, really? That is impossible!! SurelY!!
Josh64 Posted September 24, 2015 Posted September 24, 2015 Diddy Kong Racing 2. I have been wishing for this at every e3 for as long as I can remember : peace: Instead they'll probably announce Pikmin 5 for 2017 :p
Ashley Posted September 24, 2015 Posted September 24, 2015 It's going to be Super Luigi Maker, obviously.
Serebii Posted October 7, 2015 Posted October 7, 2015 A new Wii U hardware bundle containing two of Nintendo’s global million-selling multiplayer games will arrive in Europe on October 30th as a limited offer*. Containing a black Wii U Premium Pack console**, the anti-gravity racing action of Mario Kart 8 and the colourful shooter Splatoon, it’s the ideal bundle for anyone looking for instant fun. In Mario Kart 8, players speed up, down and all-around antigravity courses. With 32 new and remixed classic tracks to speed around, new items to unleash during the heat of a race, and a host of ways to enjoy the action including racing against other players, whether they’re in the same room or on the other side of the world using 12-player online competitive play***, Mario Kart 8 offers endless gravity-defying racing action for players of any age and skill level. A completely fresh take on the action shooter genre, Splatoon’s online matches*** pits two teams of four players against one another competing to claim turf by covering it in their team’s colourful ink. After splatting opponents and covering a level with colorful ink, players can transform into squids and swim quickly through their own ink or use it to take cover and hide from enemies. The Mario Kart 8 + Splatoon Wii U Premium Pack, including a pre-installed copy of Mario Kart 8 and a download code for Splatoon, will be available across Europe as a limited offer from October 30th. http://www.nintendo.co.uk/News/2015/October/Mario-Kart-8-Splatoon-Wii-U-Premium-Pack-comes-to-Europe-on-October-30th-1056993.html Hell of a bundle
Debug Mode Posted October 7, 2015 Posted October 7, 2015 Could be an amazing deal at £200, not sure if it'll tempt any one at £250 or above.
Kounan Posted October 8, 2015 Posted October 8, 2015 Can anyone, please, tell me what is a good price for Zelda WindWaker and Super Mario 3D World? Thx.
Londragon Posted October 8, 2015 Posted October 8, 2015 Can anyone, please, tell me what is a good price for Zelda WindWaker and Super Mario 3D World? Thx. Base.com; Wind Waker 36.59 pounds here Super Mario 3D World 36.89 here Best I can find at short notice, plus you'll get a reduction from Base as you don't have to pay the UK tax when shipped abroad. Bonus. But, these games will very rarely drop in price.
Sheikah Posted October 8, 2015 Posted October 8, 2015 Use bespoke offers if you can through Quidco, some epic savings to be had doing that.
Pestneb Posted October 8, 2015 Posted October 8, 2015 It's a decent bundle, it needs a decent price. £240 apparently. Wii U basic with Nintendoland and Wii Party U is £160. £80 for mk8 and splatoon is easy enough to do... so is the extra 24Gb worth it? Having said that, hopefully some shops will sell the bundle below that £240 price Can anyone, please, tell me what is a good price for Zelda WindWaker and Super Mario 3D World? Thx. http://www.365games.co.uk/wii-u-games/the-legend-of-zelda-the-wind-waker-hd-game-wii-u for windwaker.. to save a few pennies. But they aren't around for bargain prices sadly.
Kounan Posted October 8, 2015 Posted October 8, 2015 Thx for the answers. I can get it here for about 36 pounds and will probably buy it here then. It's not worth ordering it from abroad as I will have to pay tax as it is about 50KM (our currency).
Dcubed Posted October 10, 2015 Posted October 10, 2015 Not really Wii U related (can't think of anywhere really better to put it), but there's a really interesting interview with the former head of HAL America about Iwata's early years as a programmer that's probably largely gonna go under the media radar... http://gamasutra.com/view/news/254169/A_former_mentor_recalls_the_early_career_of_Satoru_Iwata.php Check it out! Goes over some really old history about the pre-NES days and the failed Atari distribution deal!
Kounan Posted October 24, 2015 Posted October 24, 2015 Has anyone played Xenoblade Chronicles on the game pad, how does it look?
Kounan Posted October 27, 2015 Posted October 27, 2015 I wanted to order Zelda WW (45 euros), but the people here don't have it, so I am looking at Mario Kart 8 (50 euros) and wanted to ask, because of the DLC's is it better to buy it via eShop, or it doesn't matter? Thx.

Thx. It doesn't matter. shop is good though as you can play it whenever without swapping disks!! Wind Waker is truly incredible though!
Kounan Posted October 27, 2015 Posted October 27, 2015 I have just realized that as I don't have an external HDD I can't have to many games from the eShop, at least not the ones which I can get at simmilar price retail in my country (Mario Kart is even cheaper I think). I have Splatoon, which I can't delete because of the online gaming, and it will be the same with Mario (plus the DLC's). I will probably wait for the Zelda game and wait for Mario Kart till I get an external HDD. Is a smaller one with 250gb enough? And, do I need to look for a specific one, or do most of them work on the Wii U?

Toshiba Canvio 2TB powered USB hard drive. http://www.amazon.co.uk/dp/B009HXWTGO/ref=twister_B00BATC05S?_encoding=UTF8&psc=1 Never had any problems with it. : peace:
Kounan Posted October 27, 2015 Posted October 27, 2015 So Toshiba is OK, thx . I can't just order from the UK, that's the problem, it would get to expensive. Oh God, no one here has Zelda right now and are not sure when they are going to be able to get it..... It's just to expensive on the eShop (if I remember corectly and the 59,9 euros price) and I also want the box. Me again , how big are the Mario Kart DLC's (both)? It looks like I will not be able to get Zelda for the price I have hoped, so I am looking for now at these games: Hyrule Warriors: 45 euros Captain Toad: 43 euros Mario Kart 8: 50 euros The Wonderfull 101: 45 euros I know, none of these are simmilar games , but I want all of them .
Nicktendo Posted October 27, 2015 Posted October 27, 2015 Still no news on the next Nintendo Direct? I am sick of waiting now...
Kounan Posted October 27, 2015 Posted October 27, 2015 What should I get , come on guys (I am still waiting for Zelda news, maybe they will be able to get it).
Glen-i Posted October 27, 2015 Posted October 27, 2015 What should I get , come on guys (I am still waiting for Zelda news, maybe they will be able to get it). Well, for what it's worth, I put Hyrule Warriors as my game of the year last year and I still stand by that today. True value for money if you like musou games or are just a massive Zelda nerd like me. DLC is exceptional value for money as well. But keep in mind, the 3DS port will include all the current DLC including a few extras right from the box. We still have no confirmation whether this new stuff will be available as DLC for the WiiU version at some point or not.
Hero-of-Time Posted October 27, 2015 Author Posted October 27, 2015 What should I get , come on guys (I am still waiting for Zelda news, maybe they will be able to get it). Hyrule Warriors is very lengthy but can get repetitive. Captain Toad is about 12 hours long but is an amazingly charming experience. Mario Kart 8 is probably the best iteration of the game yet and the online mode will keep you busy for months. The Wonderful 101 is a quirky game that you will either love or hate. Try the demo if it's still available It really depends on your mood because all four of these games are outstanding. Yeah, I wasn't much help.

Yeah, you didn't really help, but at least I know I can't make a mistake . And how big are the MK8 DLC's?

We still have no confirmation whether this new stuff will be available as DLC for the WiiU version at some point or not. Hmm, so Hyrule Warriors and MK8 (because my wife and nephew could play with me) are leading . I was also a bit worried about it being to repetative as @Hero\-of\-Time said, but a lot of people love it, so I guess it's OK. The only thing which is giving it a minus from me is that I have just finished Darkseiders, which had a lot of fighting (but not a big minus). Oh yeah, so what you are saying is that the DLC's could become part of the game (I mean included in it for free), or? If it's only for 3DS, I don't really mind as I don't own one. Thx, at least I am not worried that I will make a mistake.
