I read a rumor I kinda like that says the NX's handheld component will release November this year and the home console component will come out in November 2017.

It should be called the Lunchbox and the Buffet

It would be kind of fantastic if on the new console they allowed you to use a 3DS as a controller. That would really link the whole handheld/game system together. And they allowed you to play 3DS games on the system too. That would be magical.

US dudes, Best Buy has Rodea the Sky Soldier for $30: http://www.bestbuy.com/site/rodea-the-sky-soldier-launch-edition-nintendo-wii-u/4349013.p?id=1219626892223&skuId=4349013

Remember, this release includes both the Wii U game (which is bad) as well as the original Wii version which was developed by Yuki Naka but never released (which is surprisingly okay). This release isn't exactly hard to find right now but it's not selling and will probably never be reprinted, so you might want to give it a shot.

It's basically another one of his demands for Nintendo to tell him explicitly everything about the NX so he can get on with his life, instead of being patient like we've been for decades of Nintendo stuff.

Like, Nintendo is great, because "surprise" is almost completely gone in the world of video games, save for, like, Sony E3 2015. Everyone is running around trying to piece together everything they can about the NX, no matter how wrong it is. FB trends currently include the NX 900p report, because I'm sure people are talking about that at face value, claiming Nintendo is super extra dead, much like their doing-pretty-well Wii U console.

Not sure about the DLC. Was that a code? Because it doesn't show up as as a free download like Mario kart did and didn't find a paper with a key

According to Amazon it was a code

quote:

Mario Kart 8 comes pre-installed, no physical disc needed. Includes a Nintendo eShop download card for 2 packs of bonus DLC

So it might be tied to the account instead of the system Jesus Nintendo please get a system that makes sense. That said try it from the in game store.

Yeah it feels like a desperate act of out-of-touch execs trying to connect with the social media generation and align with digital media in general. It brings to the surface the most annoying aspects about nerd culture and I wonder all the time how these people get paid and how much they make in general. It can't be a lot.

I'm glad I'm in sales/renewals for a Fortune 500 company and make substantial commission checks to keep this stupid habit going.

The reason why the have the rear end backwards system is so you can't do exactly that. Also the Playstation environment it was a feature from the launch of the PS3 until devs wanted to stop the people who were group sharing in forums.

Last time I tried to move a NNID (which was forever ago) they only allowed you to move the whole system information which would also move the other NNIDs on the system. Did you no get your roommate's Wii U NNID moved?

No, but I ended up having to call Nintendo Support to get it moved so maybe that's why it worked out the way it did.

the wii-u loving sucks I just love couch co-op. Virtually very other system has done away with that. I wish they waited a bit to release it because it def could have been better and it's not like it had any games on release

That said the tablet is more nifty than i imagined. I don't give a poo poo about graphics; just wanna play some dope games with friends until 3 am. All that aside my nieces are gonna be loving stoked for the bundle I just got them on eBay. :retrogames:

Yeah, this is a pretty good deal if you like Naka's 3-D stuff (Burning Rangers, NiGHTS). Go straight for the Wii version.
