To be fair, I can kinda see what he must be seeing in the sprite if I try hard enough, with Ashley's headband thing being the blond hair and her hair being the wonder mask, but it's still quite a stretch.

I'm wondering if you can edit levels you download in Mario Maker. Wouldn't that be an easy way to get around amiibos or having to unlock the character skins? Just download a level with that character on it and don't delete the mushroom for it.

Unfortunately the translation for X is encrypted on Chris Prager's hard drive and no one has the password, so it would be to expensive to do all that work again.

I think I read that you can download and edit levels for local playing, but you cannot reupload them online. I am not 100% positive on this though.

Sometimes, in a city this dirty, you need a real hero.
I just picked up a pro controller (mostly for PC use) and holy poo poo, it's easily the most comfy controller I've ever held and it doesn't feel like the weight of a brick.

Is it possible to charge it up via PC USB or by plugging it into one of those wallsocket/usb plug things, or is it only designed to be 'safely' charged in the WiiU usb ports?

Wii's USB ports follow the same spec as PC ones so go nuts charging it wherever you want.

I'll give it to you since it's lovely red & black pixels, but it's also instantly recognizable as Ashley if you're familiar with the Warioware characters.

Yes you can download and edit levels and save them however you want. You just can't reupload the edited level as your own.

Everyone should play DUKE games.

:dukedog:
Is WarioWare basically dead? Game and Wario is pretty bad but seems a shame given how influential WarioWare ended up being at bringing mini-game collection type stuff outside of Japan more and eventually leading to the type of games we see on mobile devices now.
