Nickoten posted:I know what you mean, and for me it's mostly the correct grammar and spelling. I'm used to kids who say things like this sounding like, well, little kids. Seeing the question posed in that way is kind of a kick in the nuts. That did not even occur to me until now, but you are right.

Canadians: MH3U is $40 as today's Lightning Deal on Amazon.ca Also, NSMBU used is listed for $15 on Future Shop and Best Buy Canada. No idea how long that price might be available for, or whether it's an error.

I would love to play those terribly difficult platformers all over again (looking at you stampede level from The Lion King) Unrelated note: I finally got around to performing my Wii Transfer.

Not coming to the Wii U though. And oh man, that Lion King level was brutal. I played the heck out of that game too though. I can't remember if any of those old Disney games were actually good but gently caress it I loved Disney movies and I loved my SNES so I played all of them.

The Wii U is a wonderful source of entertainment, even if you don't own one. I downloaded Super Ghouls 'n' Ghosts to see if I can finally beat what I never could, and I'm not sure I want to see what its community is full of.

It definitely was  I did that before I realized my system had the disc read issue, I'm really hoping either all my data wasn't lost or the Wii U left it on my SD card or whatever. The Service Rep seemed to indicate it'd be fine (My older VC purchases at least).

The Aladdin game on the Genesis was genuinely a good game (some... miscreants will say the SNES one is superior). The Lion King game COULD be good if they remastered and it just didn't make it as loving hard as it was. Also Disney can make things right by throwing all copies of Epic Mickey and Warren Spector into a volcano

I didn't own a genesis until way later and never played that version of Aladdin  I guess I should rectify that

I love all the Ghouls n Ghosts games but someone should be paying me to play Ghosts n Goblins, not the other way around. Did Megaman X come out on the WiiU VC already in the US? If so is there any time frame on the getting it in the UK yet?

Is there word of any horror games coming to Wii U? I think the only one out there at the moment is ZombiU which I never got around to playing because the reviews put me off. I'm replaying the Wii Fatal Frame 2 remake and I was thinking that the gamepad would work pretty well in a game like this.

It is definitely a launch title with some flaws, but one of the missions is the scariest thing in the world. Don't play it expecting a Call-of-duty style endless bullets shooter. It's way more survival horror than that. Also the multiplayer is fun, and if theres a sequel I hope they expand it.

The scariest thing in the world is staring down more than two zombies and being completely out of ammo. I also thoroughly enjoy the way death works in ZombiU in that you lose everything your previous character was carrying plus all their weapon skills. It really makes a well-developed character seem that much more valuable. I really hope that Ubisoft makes another game like it for the Wii U. I'd definitely buy it.

Lizard Wizard posted:It's a bit misleading to say this. The SNES version doesn't look or feel or sound better than the Genesis one - they are literally two different games. Yes and I think the SNES one is better. Superior sound and music, more colorful graphics, much superior platforming all around, tighter controls, game mechanics more in line with the character. The Genesis one had better sprites but a limited palette, loose controls and loose hitboxes, terrible sound, bad platforming, and seemed like a generic dash and slash game they pasted the Aladdin characters over.

I actually kind of liked Dead Island for its depiction of a sunny tropical paradise but with zombies. It's a nice twist from the perma-night of most zombie games. If only the games weren't janky as hell.

What's kind of silly about ZombiU is that a zombie will run at you and then kinda slap at you. Reminds me of the pit scene in Army of Darkness.

I love how there's absolutely no chatter about anything interesting on the WiiU after all this time since release. We're talking about purchasing 20 year old games again, a launch title and just absolutely nothing else. I can't wait to hear what E3 has in store - the sad thing is I'm keeping this system for only a few games - things loving dustay
