Eww...

Well any geek will have a few extra SD cards around and maybe a unused external HDD. If not go get a 16 GB SD card for 10$ and a 16 GB flash drive for another 10$.

I think I either hacked the Wii U Miiverse or I am stupid.

I really like it so far. also Darksiders 2 works better if the Pro controller is being used. the tearing, input lag and visual bugs just go away.

I can'r speak for PS3 but the menus's for DSII on 360 are sluggish as hell. Even with a few members left Vigil. They have lot's of potential but really need some Q&A over there.

[Segata Sanshiro Jr.]

The ps3 version took forever to do anything on the menu.

So far the miiverse reminds me of Dreamcast's online where a bunch of games had official forums and stuff.

I want to make a game with no tutorials that based on secrets and experimentation and release it on Wiiu, I'd like to see if gamers would help each other out on Miiverse.

And the menu is still awful on the PS3. User interface on that thing is appalling.

finally got around to playing AC 3. Looks really really good, but i want to try it with my Pro controller which I didn't get to pick up, will grab that tomorrow.

BTW if anyone else gets the console (lol) my User ID is "WildfireGreen", if you decide to add me just PM m yours (again i believe i'm alone in this)

The thing is i see the non gamer types going for the cheaper version so they probably wont know about changing hard drives and so on.

Also lame that the Nintendo Network Account can only be used on the console it was created on.

[Bluecast]

Agreed

Going off articles i can see why Nintendo didn't reveal all the specs. Its a powerful machine but some parts are a step back on the 360/PS3 so to speak.

Watched most of the Giant Bomb livestream yesterday and came away fairly impressed. ZombiU looks like the most interesting to play. Nintendoland seems like good fun. Tekken Tag Tournament 2 was hilarious with Tekken Ball mode and Gun Jack dressed as Luigi. Batman Arkham City had terrible framerate issues. And the revelation that accounts are system locked seems...silly.

One thing I don't like is that it has the modern disease of having to update fucking everything.

the Wii>WiiU transfer was easy, and the animation was fucking cute.

Just played NG3, WAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAY better then Vanilla 3.

Was playing NintendoLand, the fact that people say wii sports was better is interesting. Unlike wii sports, which took the physical playstyle and applied it digitally, Nintendoland takes the core mechanic to classic games and applies them in a new way using the controller.

Wii sports was fun because sports are fun, but nintendoland is fun because using two screens is fun. i guess i need to figure out a better way of explaining it.

More reason why the WiiU versions of ME3 is pointless. It wont even be getting the next DLC that comes out this month
