My U is downloading an update because I want to buy MK8DLC... and then I read somewhere on here that there is an update which renders it useless and you have to send it in to be repaired GASP  

Is this the update that fucks up the console?  Please say it ain't so.

I think mine was spared too.  It has reloaded and now MK8 has the extra stuff and everything else seems to still work OK.

BTW how do I buy the Pikmin 3 DLC?  Can't find it on the eshop.

Is that 60FPS Splatoon trailer the same one we saw earlier?  Seems a bit different to me.  I sure can't remember any 8-bit style 2D platforming bits in the original.

It's in the game menu, load the game disc, the game will update.

60 FPS videos are awesome, looks so much better.

What are peoples thoughts on Amiibos? At first I thought they were pretty good, then when exclusive content started getting announced I was a little pissed off, shouldn't everyone be able to get this content? Then I started thinking about amiibos like paid DLC. You pay for your figure and it's like buying DLC, but since the figures can be used across multiple games it's sorta good value.

Then they started releasing wave after wave of figures and now it looks like a bit of a rip to me, $13 each and they have like 30 figures already? How much cash are they looking to rake in?

Still pissed that they got downgraded.  Although the clear plastic poles of the 2nd and 3rd gen are a huge improvement over them coloured ones.  I'll probably get a few myself, just like I bought a Bowser plushie for my son.  I'm liking Bowser and Shulk so far.  Because they both just rock, and the level of detail seems appropriate.

I saw these toilets in Italy, India and in Dubai too.

What's worse is that some are made for Muslims, to wash themselves after they poo with a little shower thing. And basically the whole floor is a wet room and everything drains out via the floor or hole in the ground toilet. So you can imagine, you are standing in an area where many peoples faecal particles have been washed (with nothing but the water provided - no soap).

And in Bangkok I went into a toilet and opened the first cubicle door, there was a tiny toilet in there, half the size of a normal toilet. So I opened up cubicle 2 and it was the same tiny toilet. "Thai people must be a lot smaller than westerners" I thought. So I sat on this thing for a long crap and my legs were getting pins and needles, the pressure of my weight on this tiny toilet seat was virtually cutting off the blood flow to my legs. It's so small I have to hover over the seat to wipe.

Finally done with this ordeal I think "WTF is this?!" so I open cubicle 3 only to see a full sized toilet. Turns out I had crapped on a mini kids toilet. indecision

Not that I'm pro this kind of toilet, but you have them in France as well, along speedways and whatnot.  There the whole floor is 'flushed' after you leave, so it is at least acceptably hygenic.  And I thought it was Indians who used those showers, not muslims.
