Chasiubao posted:So I just pulled the trigger on the Best Buy Wii U bundle. Picked up Bayonetta 2 and Mario Kart 8 earlier on sale so I have a bunch of games waiting to be played. Is there anything I should know about setting up a Wii U / account? Need to pick up a Pro Controller as well. Are the third party ones any good? When you get to the part of the setup that involves linking an NNID account to the system and you have an existing NNID from a 3DS you want to use you'll get trapped in an endless circle. To get around this you can create a dummy Mii at that point to get into your console. Then all you do is import your Mii from your 3DS, assign it the NNID you want, and delete the dummy Mii.

Calico Heart posted:Miiverse is one of the best thing about the Wii u What the gently caress is the point of the miiverse Admittedly I only recently purchased my WiiU and still am learning things about it, but it seems to just be a bunch of assholes I don't care about saying poo poo about Bayonetta, Smash, or drawing fanart of Sonic. If I could just have the home screen replicated on both my gamepad and the TV, I would. Separately: I have a gamepad (duh) and 2 WiiMote+ My fiancee and I like to play Mario Kart. I don't really want to always use the Gamepad, and she hates it. How do I make controller 1 and 2 both WiiMotes and leave the gamepad as just, like, a "navigate your wii with this" tool Also: what controller should I use for Smash? I'm super disoriented trying to use the wiimote + nunchuk; I've never used it in my life.

FairGame posted:What the gently caress is the point of the miiverse It's a forum where 12-year-olds go to talk about how cool Mario is, making it the greatest forum on the internet.

Its pretty amazing that Smash will support 7 remotes through some kind of black magic, but why did they not include the option for "Remote + Classic Controller = Two players" it seems like it wouldve actually been easier. Also Im pretty glad that screenshots save to SD cards for super easy sharing. They should let you save replays to it or something, that would be amazing.

I imagine it would be a nightmare to use a remote as a controller with the classic's cord coming out the side. Also I'm sure injuries would arise from two people connected by a short cord playing smash. People would die.

I'm sure the megadrive/genesis micromachines game had a mode where you could play multiplayer sharing one pad.

FairGame posted:Wait...classic controllers like "the things I bought so I could play Wii VC games?" All your Wii controllers will on a Wii U. Its up to the developers to make it work, but in almost all cases anything that uses the new Wii U Pro controller will also use the old Wii Classic controller. The only times I can think of one working but not the other are single-player games so why not just use the standard pad anyways?

We just beat Kirby Superstar on Kirby's Dream Collection a few weeks ago, and I think we'll move on to Mario 3D World once I get a Wii U on Black Friday. If you have a lady/manfriend, Return to Dreamland is really fun and super duper cute for a long haul playthrough. We're working our way through the Kirby games and that's probably been the most fun.

oh hey, weird question maybe but; Our Wii U was a gift from someone. We since made our own Mii's and bought a couple games, but his Nnid is still linked to the console. We didn't actuallu know how to change it, so just ran with it. Is there a way to change it, or would that delete all the games we bought?

Miiverse is good because posting video game poo poo to your actual social stuff is annoying and dumb, so they just made their own Facebook exclusively for Nintendo games.
