Thank you to the people that did reply. I just have one more question. Is the connection for online play really that bad without an adapter? I keep my Wii U in my bedroom; it is a distance from the router, so I may be stuck with just the option of a wireless connection.

I have never had any problems with wireless connections across Splatoon, Smash, and Xenoblade X. I just have a birthday configuration with a WPA2 password, I haven't messed with ports or any of that bullshit. My router is through two walls, one of which is brick.

Like wit any online multiplayer, you're only gonna have as good of an experience as the worst connection in your group. If you've got a good router and stable connection, you probably won't be that weakest link, but if you really want to play Smash or Splatoon and never have to worry about dropped connection or lag...just buy the adapter.

The ereader levels in Mario Advance 4 are so loving good. It's crazy these are the best 2d Mario levels since, well, super Mario World.

Yep its the reason I want out my way to buy the e reader cards for Mario Advance 4 a few years back. You would have to be crazy to not buy the VC ver of Mario Advance 4, well... unless you want to hunt down the cards that gave you the Cape Feather or the e-Switchs that gave the ability to throw Vegs and Luigi's Flutter Jump.

That's really great, but I wish that they also would have integrated the demo cards and power-up cards in some fashion. It probably wasn't technologically feasible and I know that they already had to do some work to fit in all of the e-Reader levels at once when the previous limit was 32, but I would have loved to have Cape Feathers or infinite Hammer Brother suits. Or Kuribo's Shoe... <drool> Also, I wish that some game would bring back the bunny ears from Six Golden Coins. An underappreciated power-up in an underappreciated game.

Man, I just sequence broke the hell out of Zero Mission and I didn't mean to! There was one Super Missile I saw way at the beginning of the game. Only thing standing between me and it was the Morph Ball jump, and some Shinesparking. So hey, Shinesparking is fun, right? So of course I did it! ... Which led to me beating Ridley right after getting the Varia Suit and Wave Beam. Like, as soon as I could get to his lair I found him and beat him. And now I just got the Screw Attack and I'm pretty sure I broke this game bad.  I DIDN'T MEAN TO!  I just wanted to get a shiny thing!

I will say that Splatoon is the only game I've ever had connection problems with. Apparently it requires a higher upload speed than most other online games (probably because it's keeping track of all the ink?) and the game unceremoniously boots me a lot. I am on Uverse and the upload IS pretty crummy.

I love the hell out of ZM, even if some people say that "intentional" sequence breaking takes away from it (what??). Perfect Stealthing the sneaking part is one of the best things i've done in a game.

Silver Falcon posted:Man, I just sequence broke the hell out of Zero Mission and I didn't mean to! Zero Mission is great because they looked at all the crazy sequence breaking from Super Metroid and went "Man, that's actually pretty cool poo poo" and then intentionally threw in a bunch of shortcuts and techniques that completely wreck the intended order of the game. They also put in a couple of redundant progress barriers just so people wouldn't be tempted to do tedious and retarded stuff like skipping the ability to grab ledges.

PAL update (week of January 28):quote:WII U RETAIL DOWNLOADS Final Fantasy Tactics is not just the first FF game on Wii U VC, it's the first Square-Enix VC release since the Wii days. Will it be the last? Word Puzzles by POWG! (not PAWG) is the first indie game with amiibo support, but it's in the least interesting way possible - it reads the name of the profile saved to your amiibo and uses it to generate a random puzzle or something. Affordable Space Adventures Is A Good Game.

I hope they put all of the GBA FF ports on the shop eventually since they're largely still the best way to play those games.

I prefer the DS port of IV and you can't beat the PSP versions of I and II. However, Squeenix will probably not want to cannibalize their mobile sales of V and VI by putting the GBA versions on the eShop for $8 when they're $16(!) on mobile.

I haven't played any of the FFT games, but they seem well-regarded enough that I'll probably check it out if it hits NA. Really hope this is a sign we'll finally get Secret of Mana and Chrono Trigger at some point, though.

With Cloud and Geno Costumes available I don't see why they wouldn't have Mario RPG on the eShop. Hell, it would be pretty smart to have the whole winter warm up sale end with the surprise release of that game with the Geno forest maze-song playing in the background of the eshop for a week to help promote it.

No direct way, but you can always buy an eshop card and give the card code to someone else so they can buy the game you wanted to get them, or you can check amazon and see if there are download codes for sale for whatever game you had in mind and then just give that code to whoever you want to redeem it

If you're in North America, Nintendo sells some game codes on their website as well (mostly first-party, of course)
