I would really put my money on Sega being bad/dumb/cheap before saying it's some weird Nintendo decision making/meddling or whatever.

PaletteSwappedNinja posted:I guess this hasn't been posted? IGN writeup on NSMBU that mentions a whole bunch of crap people were hoping for - SMW-style overworld, the different challenges/alternates modes, the ability to create your own Coin Challenge layouts, lots of stuff. OK, I think I'm finally legit interested in NSMBU now.

I actually normally stay up till like 6-7am since I work the late evening shift so I care about a midnight launch because I can just grab it on my way home from work and play it all night. I realize this is probably only applicable to me though.

Bobnumerotres posted:No, you can edit where the coins are though. Which is dumb as hell. I guess if there wasn't coin battle mode it would be dumb but seeing as there's an entire multiplayer mode dedicated to going through a level and getting the most coins I can see it adding a bunch of replay value if you have a group of friends who are into it.

Bobnumerotres posted:And can be at your house all the time, since there's no online. Oh no, real friends, my one weakness Seriously though, just because it doesn't meet your exact specifications doesn't mean it's dumb. It seems like every time I come in this thread you're flipping out about some little thing and threatening to cancel your pre-order because "that's not the way I want it!! " The U in the system name doesn't actually mean it was designed specifically for you! Different people use different things in different ways! Just because you apparently will never play video games with a real live person doesn't mean nobody else will either! I mean I'm not saying you can't complain. I'm not saying there's nothing to complain about, there definitely is, but holy poo poo you take it to a whole other level.

Oh wow, that eShop news is fantastic. I really wasn't expecting that. Also my Gamestop isn't having a midnight launch despite having signs all over the store saying JOIN US FOR THE WII U MIDNIGHT EVENT and a big countdown clock as recent as a week and a half ago. At least they open an hour early?

DarkHamsterlord posted:Can you go back and use the Homebrew Channel on the Wii after downloading the transfer app and moving everything? I want to get all my stuff on my Wii U but I still want to be able to go back and use a Classic Controller for Donkey Kong Country Returns or whatever other homebrew things I might want. Yeah, HBC and all that was totally left alone for me. Currently restoring my pre-transfer NAND with BootMii. Totally painless! EDIT: Oh yeah, it erases whatever it transfers off the Wii. So back up whatever you need beforehand.

Space_Butler posted:Okay, I must be an idiot because I can't find, for the life of me, the setting that allows me to turn the volume down on my gamepad. There's an option for regular Wii remotes, but nothing I can find for this loud-rear end thing playing spa music for an hour as I slowly download the update (which thankfully timed out, so I can just play games). Anyone know how to do this? Slider on the top.

Gendo posted:I hope all the new consoles are cool and release a bunch of good games. It would be difficult for me to care less about which individual console is more successful than another. Supercar Gautier posted:You can even dislike a console at launch and then like it later. PS3 had a terrible start and was a huge ripoff at first, but then eventually they really turned the platform around and I bought one because why hold a grudge over loving video games? I really wish the world (or at least this thread) could be this reasonable all the time. In other news, I didn't get a lot of time to play with mine yesterday because I'm sick and my medicine hosed me up big-time but the hour of Nintendoland I played and however much time I spent messing around with the system in general were fun! This ia a fun thing!

Woptendo posted:I'm gonna try and pick this up tomorrow. Does it control well with the Wiimote and nunchuck combo or should I pick up a Classic Controller Pro? I played it for like half the game before even realizing it supported the Classic Controller and was too used to the Remote+Nunchuck controls to switch by then so I'd say it works just fine.

The main problem I have with the Youtube app is that the framerate is junk. Seriously, compare a video playing in the app to a video on a computer, it's all stuttery and poo poo. The web browser doesn't have this problem at all.

PaletteSwappedNinja posted:Yeah, the rumour that Good-Feel (the Kirby's Epic Yarn/Wario Land: Shake Dimension devs) are working on a HD Yoshi platformer has been kicking around for a long time, but it's not actually based on anything credible. That kinda worries me, Wario Land wasn't very good and Epic Yarn was good mostly in spite of its gameplay. At least it'll looking loving fantastic though.

It wasn't revolutionary or anything but I liked it for what it was. I really had to force myself to get through Shake It. It was pretty disappointing and just kinda turned into a boring slog by the end. Wario Land 2 is still king. Pretty though!

Man, the Wii U version of Mighty Switch Force is great just because of Miiverse. I stumbled into a time attack war on level 8 just because I like that one a lot and posted a good time, then the creator of the game/head of WayForward beat my time and I spent a fair amount of time beating that only to have ANOTHER person do even better before I could post it and now I just beat his by a good .06 seconds and got to draw myself wearing shades and a crown. Miiverse is loving cool.
