'Freaks' and tweaks: ZombiU's winding path to launch
"One year ago, trying to make such an ambitious game, it [was] a bit stupid, I think. It has been tough. It has been a huge amount of work, but it's done."

B: " it's simply a wonderful playground for making your own fun, especially with friends. That's no bad thing! But I know that it could be even better, and I wish that it were."

Mass Effect 3 on Wii U features, graphical, audio issues?
" This version of ME3 seems a lot less visually stable than, say, the Xbox 360 version -- the frame rate is choppier, the animation seems rougher."

Same here most people when they see my PSN username they either can't pronounce it (I was playing Little Big Planet 2 and somebody had trouble pronouncing my username) Also on Steam I was playing Team Fortress 2 and somebody spelled my username as Halbodihfws (It isn't exact but it is close); They just started typing random letters after the Halb my PSN, Steam, and GOG username is Halberdier17. I was going to have it as my 3DS account name but that could only have 10 characters so I had to drop the 17.
SUPER MARIO MAKER LEVELS:
DAMMIT!
What are the chances of TWO of us wanting the same name?!

No wonder my Wii U has not shipped yet, UPS AND FED EX Too busy dealing drugs!
Not inches? Pfft.
4.5 for ZombiU at GS.
Oh GS...
So Epic Mickey Power of Illusion is like 3 hours long, wtf the demo made it seem it was huge. But now I see that was 1/3 of the entire game. What shit.
Don't you mean Oh MG?
It seems like all of the Wii U launch games are being picked off, one by one, by various sites, leaving the two best games being Super Mario and Nintendo Land.
Two first party Nintendo games. Sounds like every other Nintendo Console launch now.
^ We dont have many Zombiu reviews yet, I am sure there will be some great ones for it. Scribblenauts has some good ones too, may get that.
So you guys ready, this is the final day. Kiss your Wii's goodnight as its the last day you will care for it. A new system launch is here... and I dont feel much of anything. I want to experience the launch, to me that is the fun part, which I wont get to do.
. But actually looking forward to playing it, yeah it should be cool but nothing really screams out amazing.
Also there is no where near the excitement level of the wii. There is no sense of magic of the unknown potential the wiimote brought. That wow factor that happened when someone saw the wii in action. This hardware just isnt as interesting. Everyone knows what a touch pad is, it is nothing new.
Okay the Wii tribute page is finished. Damn thing nearly left me out of breath, but it was fun thinking about all of those great Wii games. I've said it before, and I stand by it; had it not been for the Wii I liklely would have dropped out of gaming for a while. It provided me with the kind of games that were just completely disregarded on the HD consoles during their early few years.
And I have to agree with Vader, the excitement for the Wii U isn't quite there, although I have a feeling this is how it's just going to be from now on. There's so much more information coming out these days that I think the days of the "huge event" in gaming is just over. We know too much these days and we know about it way too far in advance. Oh well still looking forward to playing it.
That brings me to the next question. I'm still not sure what the hell to do with the Wii U. I technically have the money for it, but not for an extra game and really I should save the money for something more important.... you know like gas. I dunno, I have a day to decide. I'll figure it out by then I hope.
^ The next HD system launches will be big events. it is just that this is Nintendo catching up to everyone else, it isnt NEW in that sense. When we see something totally new, upgrades in the way the games look then people will get excited. Plus who knows what MS will have in store.
Sonic All-Star Racing Transformed has nabbed some good reviews in a few places too. If some of the early rumors about the Wii U having the best version is true that could be worth snagging as well.
Wow, look at all of the low Epic Mickey 2 review scores! Good thing I don't bother with so-called "pro" reviews.
It was posted as news yesterday. Weird, guess the photos are new or something.
Damn, I want to cancel but I will check some other reviews first. ONM gave it a 92%.
GAF hated the demo so I was de-hyped. Still looking forward to Epic Mickey 2, I don't care what scores it gets as I enjoyed the original even when it was mauled. As long as they say it's as good if not better than the first I am down for some more N64-style platforming. The art looks super cool in HD too.

1UP's Epic Mickey 2 Wii U review claims that the Wii Remote/Nunchuck can only used in two-player games; the Upad is required for single player. WTF?
