It sucks to live in the UK regardless of gaming.

Where is Foolz or Iga when you need them to say stuff like this?!

Nice impressions guys. What about the thickness, of the PAD? Does the pad have a shiny clear plastic top and matte underneath?

What about the grip on the sticks, is it like the smooth wii stick or is it more or less grippy?

The main buttons A, B, X, Y are they digital clicky buttons how do they feel compared to say the A button on the Wiimote or the 1 and 2 wiimote buttons?

Yes its shiny on top matte under. The grip felt good, like the nunchuck. The buttons feel more like the 1 and 2 buttons but slightly better.

Could not turn down the TV but the pad was loud enough to hear some of it.

How big is the stylus?

Any observations on the system unit itself?

Not that big.

The system is curvy.

I got the stylus and the back for you GG. The system is LONG.

Looks nice. But again when you have a giant HDTV right next to this tiny screen well the tiny screen seems much less appealing.

This is the WIi U menu you get in the demo station, its just videos of features. The other screen is the various games.

There is a ton of shit going on back there.

The games menu

Pretty sexy.

WTF is the square thing on the bottom left? I press it and nothing happens.

And what is going on with all those wires in the back? I see the power, I see a phone line, the sensor bar plus. I guess HDMI would be under the first row and there are like three other ones.

Thanks, is the pad light? You seem to be holding and turning it with one hand?

It is long. The screen always looks good in pictures, what is the viewing angle like? And the backlight? They enlarged the screen I hear but kept the resolution the same, so are the pixels more evident?

With the giant cord stuck to the pad it was a bit heavy to hold up but when its loose it should be fine. The screen always looks good no matter the angle I saw it in. The backlight is pretty good, it can maybe get brighter than that but its fine the way it is.  As for the screen it just doesn't look as clear and smooth as an HDTV. Its really good but no ipad quality and there is a loss of color/brightness and fluidity. Again this is compared directly to the incredible TV its setup to.
