You need the console, and a USB Ethernet adapter. There's a fee MH3 utility you download.

Bomberman Hero is one of my favorite games and that's only because of the soundtrack. The game's okay.

I tried W101 for the first time, absolutely hated it, learned that I hated it because I didn't immediately buy the spring and weight abilities, watched some videos on how to play the game despite not having the abilities, and think the game is okay now. Still kinda needlessly complicated.

Also Mario Kart, quick reminder why the game owns:

I took advantage of Target's "buy two, get one free" thing to get Mario Kart 8, Super Mario 3D World, and Rayman. Then I used the Mario Kart code to get Pikmin 3.

I played some Mario Kart, but I will probably go back to Xenoblade soon enough.

Platinum does the same stupid thing every game where they make you buy the dodge and block move, and buying both is so cheap you'll immediately have the points for it. Its completely a bizarre design choice. Just start your players with the fundamental moves of the game, Platinum.

"Needlessly complicated" is pretty much Platinum's mission statement. And we love them for it.

Some guys want to challenge themselves and are super spergs. Platinum accommodates those spergs.

It's coming out for the PC, it's going to sell gangbusters compared to everything else(except Metal gear Rising).

Also I think I've run out of good Wii-U exclusives games/ports that you can buy a physical copy of. Pretty sure I have everything.

Super Mario Wii-U
Super Luigi-U
Zombi-U
Super Mario 3d World
Donkey Kong Country Tropical Freeze
Mario Kart 8
Windwaker HD
Rayman Legends
Monster Hunter 3-U
Nintendoland
Pikmin 3
Wonderful 101
Mass Effect 3:SE(I only bought this because it was 5 bucks, that or you either die a legend or live long enough to become Bioshock infinite)
