The deluxe version is completely sold out everywhere. This is my punishment for not keeping up with anything. Maybe they'll have more when Christmas rolls around?

Netflix app works very well and I love how I can use the Gamepad to change settings on the fly. You can even have the video switch to your Gamepad in case someone else wants to watch something on TV.

Bombadilillo posted:Whats a nabbit?  It's a demented rabbit that steals items from Toad and then runs into a previous course and you must catch him. I noticed that if you catch him in 20 seconds or less you can post it through the Miiverse but I don't have it set up yet.

I commented on some guy who said: "Who else loves that the levels have names now? Looks like they put a lot of thought into each one." I commented with: "Yoshi's Island had names for their levels and that game has been out since 95!" Why would that be deleted for spoilers? Of course they wouldn't even touch the drawing I did where I explicitly state that I am on shrooms.

Boten Anna posted:Having never played AC I haven't played the first two either, but the third one sounds pretty cool and like I'd enjoy it without playing the first two. I was recommended earlier in the thread to wait until it's not full price before getting it, though. AC2 is the best one out of all of the AC games and you're doing yourself a disservice by not playing that one. It will fill you in on the events of AC1 if you're hard pressed on game time. Brotherhood, the sequel to AC2, is also very good. Revelations was kinda meh. AC3 is

If the Gamepad can turn itself off while I'm watching regular TV why isn't there an option for when I'm watching Netflix? Probably because the system is on right? They really need to patch an option to turn off the Gamepad when it's not being regularly used. I know there is the option under settings to turn it off but the settings screen menu won't go away if you're trying to watch Netflix and if you press a button on the Gamepad it comes back on.

Underwhelmed posted:On a similar note, it would be nice if it were possible to shut off the screen for games in which it is unneeded. While playing NSMBU on my TV for example, I really don't need it to display the exact same image on a handheld that I am not even looking at. I also agree with this. I want to get as much life out of my Gamepad as possible.

BowieFett posted:So, I'm assuming it's not possible to play a game on the gamepad and have Netflix running on the TV, right? That was one of the first things I tried to do but I couldn't find a way so I assume no. I don't believe there are new Mii options, looks about the same as the 3DS Mii creator. I was hoping my Mario hat I unlocked would transfer over as well but no.

It was at least 1GB in size. Finally started ZombiU. From what I gathered in the first 30 mins of playtime is that the websites who gave this game a low review have no loving idea what they are talking about. This is a very tense game and requires far more thought and planning than I thought was going to be required. It's probably one of the best survival-horror games I've ever played. If you want to mow down zombos then this is not the game for you. Oh jesus gently caress, rats can set off the drat radar. This is going to complicate things.

Underwhelmed posted:With the brightness turned down, I can go more than 2 hours before the pad loses its first bar off the battery. It really isn't that bad unless you need the brightness up to 5 for some reason. I haven't had a WiiU marathon yet so I can't say how long the thing will last for sure, but for comparison, before I turned it down I was losing about one bar every 45 minutes or so. I believe you can kill rats and crows for meat. I too thought that they held loot so I shot a crow before it flew off and what do you know the shots attracted about 4 zombies to my location. There goes about 8 rounds of precious ammo wasted. Headshots are not always a 1 shot kill in this game.

Well I am using my laptop to write this post and surf for solutions. Checked my phone and it's connected fine. Desktop is fine. Tablet is fine. The router is a Cisco VEN401-AT.

greatn posted:Did you try turning it off and on again? I've reset the WiiU, router, cable box (AT&T), entered the MAC address into the router, deleted all previous connection settings, entered everything manually, cycled through different wireless channels. Nothing has worked. I don't understand, it was fine a few days ago. I haven't used it since then until I wanted to mess around with the TVii and that's when I noticed it wasn't connecting to the Internet except just the router.

greatn posted:What about your domain name service? Maybe the Wii's default or local is down and you could change it to google? (8.8.8.8 & 8.8.4.4) I tried Google's and even that didn't work. I just attempted to use a PIN-code configuration and that also didn't work. I cannot understand why/how this is happening. I'll just try again in a few hours.

The only way I can connect to the Internet is to leave security open. Obviously I don't want to do that but what could that be a symptom of? Yes, I was typing in the password just fine. I even made a new wireless password in case my old one was too long.

What a dumb issue. I just can't figure out what could have possibly changed in the system since the last time I used it with the SSID with multiple spaces. But at least we know this might be what has been causing a lot of problems for some people.

Iacen posted:It seems like Wii U owners might have dodged a bullet with Aliens: Colonial Marines: Apparently the version made for the WiiU was the worst version and was deemed unplayable which is why I'm guessing it's been taken off the roster. http://www.nintendolife.com/news/2013/02/rumour_aliens_colonial_marines_tester_says_wii_u_version_is_the_worst quote:Oh wow. Yes okay. I was hoping someone would ask this. I have played the WiiU version. The one that is supposedly the best of all of them? It is not. It is the worst. It is a bit of a joke. The WiiU is basically the same game as the console version but with framerate issues, worse texture loading, and horrendously misguided minigames thrown in. You get a ‘scanner’ to scan enemies and get bonus points that aid your harming them. When you cut open doors (which happens a lot in the game) you have a game where you have to keep the heat ‘optimal’. They just add frustration, and take away even more from the fun. We don’t know if it will come out, Sega are conisdering canceling it, but right now its still going.

Office Thug posted:All of a sudden while playing MH3U online, my Wii U loses connection to the router. This has never happened to me before with my normal Wii and it refused to connect to the router, but still detected it just fine so I'm guessing it wasn't the antenna that died. Pretty sure I had the same problem a few months ago. I think I ended up changing the Wireless name and messing with a bunch of settings with the router because I was able to establish a connection when the signal was open. I have no idea what causes it unless it's an AT&T thing.
