So its looking like WiiU Premium with NSMB, NSL, + Mario3d World will set me back £259. This is not bad at all!

How much do games on the eshop usually cost? I heard about the two NES Remix games and they sound fantastic!

Not a high jack at all! I myself have only played the legend of zelda on an emulator and no other zeldas ever. This will be my first zelda really!

The NES was the last Nintendo console I owned. But I loved it to bits. The first game I ever completed was mario bros 3. I have missed those bros

have you played dynasty warriors before? it's a very hard but very good dynasty warriors game with zelda flavor. if that might be your thing, i'd suggest giving it a try.

Noice. I bought earthbound with nintendo coins and will probably never play it. I did boot up Mario Kart 8 last night to do some laps of 150cc Mute City in preparation of 200cc, so I have a fresh reference point

i am very excited indeed! thinking of maybe dropping wind waker or the bayonetta double pack from this month due to the price (both still really expensive) and getting them at the end of may and switching it up to NSMB, Mario Galaxy 1 and 2 and Donkey Kong country returns.

its tough. there are so many great games i want to play all at once.

I can't buy a Wii U myself so I'm vicariously living through OP. You better post unboxing pics! Wind Waker probably won't drop in price but I'm playing it on Gamecube and watching a Let's Play of the HD version on Youtube and I recommend it.

im ridiculously excited for mario maker.

ive spent hours loving around with SMBX on my pc making mario levels/worlds (i was the SMB4 poster) but having an official mario making game is p. much the entire reason i ever wanted a wiiu in the first place.

can you play any game on the gamepad away from the TV or only certain ones? if its the former then :omg:

most games work like that but some actually use both screens at once for different things and thus cant do that
