Devil's Third has a lower score than the Hotel Transylvania videogame. It's in the 30's.

Also, AC Amiibo cards work for That Amiibo Tap game. Lottie unlocked Kirby's adventure for me. And Gigi showed me that I'm 100% poo poo at classic Mario games.

I'm pretty sure that goomba has killed more than almost any other baddie, so don't feel too bad. It's very formidable.

What wireless router is everybody using with their Wii U that works well? Obviously wired using an adapter or w/e is best, but my internet is setup on the other side of a ~30 foot room, and I don't wanna run a cord that far at the moment.

Right now, whenever somebody gets on the wireless at all, like even turns a laptop on, it completely craps out the connection (fully disconnects from Splatoon, for instance), and I'm at my wits loving end. Really just wanna spend $50-100 on the best router in that range for the Wii U, which is all I really use wireless for at all anyway, that will keep me splatting without constant disconnects.

I'm using a Time Capsule as my wireless router and that doesn't give me any problems.

But obviously, that's a super-expensive choice, and only good if you've got one of more apple laptops in your home.

You'll probably want to look instead into those ethernet over electricity adapters. I heard some guys on NeoGAF saying it solved their networking Splatoon issues completely without long cables everywhere.

Yes you do. You can get a 50' flat ethernet cable for under $15 from Amazon.

How does abandoned, orphan, son of a stork and an italian, dropped in the middle of a forgotten spot in Yoshi's Island by providence, impoverished, in squalor, grow up to be a hero and a doctor?

The overaller shroom-father without a father, got a lot farther by working a lot harder, by being a lot smarter, by being a self-starter, by fourteen, they placed him in charge of Gorilla charters

And every day while Toads were being slaughtered and placed inside of stones, he struggled and kept pipes from being overgrown.
Inside, he was longing for something to be a part of, the brother was ready to beg, steal, borrow, or barter.

Then a shellcreeper came, and devastation reigned, our man saw himself slip slippin down the drain, to a mushroom land where flowers made his hands full of power, grand, stomped his first goombas on the mushroom plain, a start to his great fame.

Well the word, got around, they said "These bros are insane, man", they collected lots of coins just to send him to the mainland, "Save our princess quickly, don't forget from whence you came, and the world's gonna know your names, what's you name?"

Mario M. Mario.
My name is Mario M. Mario.
You haven't seen me drive a kart yet yo,
But just you wait, just you wait.

When he was ten his Yoshi split, full of it, debt-ridden, two years later, see Mario and Luigi bed-ridden, half dead, sittin in their bed sick, the scent thick, and Mario got better but Luigi went quick.

Moved in with a Thwomp but the thwomp committed boo-icide, left him with nothing but ruined pride, something new inside, a voice saying "You gotta fend for yourself", he started retreatin and readin bout ballistics of a shell

There would have been nothin left to do for someone less astute he would have been dead or destitute without a cent of restitution, started slummin, plumbing for his late brother's landlord, fixing all the pipes in lots of houses that he can't afford scammin for every book he can get his hands on, plannin for the future see him now as he stands on a large airship scrollin to a new land! In Mushroom Kingdom you can be a new man!

Mario M. Mario, we are saving these P. Wings for you. You could never back down, you never learned to take your time! Oh Mario M .Mario, when Sarasaland sings for you, will they know what you overcame? Will they know you rewrote the game? The world will never be the same, oh,

Airship is in the harbor now, see if you can spot him, another immigrant coming up from the bottom, his enemies attacked his rep core gamers forgot him.

Link fought with him.

Yoshi died for him.

F.L.U.D.D trusted him.

Peach loved him.

Wario? He's the drat fool that shot him.

There's a million games he hasn't done, but just you waiiiiiiit.

What's you name, man?

Mario M. Mario!

Hammer Bros. are the real motherfuckers. Even Bowser's a chump next to those assholes and their hammer arcs. There's a reason you usually have to kill them from below.

Played through all of New Super Mario Bros U and it was positively delightful (sans Star World...I'll go back and get those coins). I may as well roll my enjoyment straight into New Luigi U, right?

Unrelated, I've decided to go fully digital with the WiiU from now on, so obviously I'm going to need an external HDD.

From what I've read, I can either get an externally powered drive, or get a Y connector cable (cause the U doesn't push out enough volts to power USB 3). Does one perform better/more stable than the other?

Platter vs. Solid State?

External power is more stable, buy you can also plug the power end of the Y cable into a usb wall converter to make it essentially an external powered. Just get whatever has three best size/fit/aesthetic for your setup.

Mine has been plugged with a y cable into two USB ports on the back of my WiiU since 2012 with no issues

They've only been a different species as of 3D World. The SMW goombas were always the odd ones out so it makes sense to just say they're a different enemy.
