Wii U Games 2013

so i went to target to see if i could get batman and asscreed iv for the b2g1f sale. except they aren't stocking either game for the wii u. neither is best buy.

Really? That's odd. I just looked and EVERY Best Buy within a 50 mile radius from me has BOTH games available for store pickup right now.
 
I wonder if the reason Human Head was able to do a better job was because they're working with Nintendo on another WiiU game (as has been rumored).
 
My WiiU just arrived and I had a question, do they not have seals on them? There's no cut seal but there's no seal at all which is odd for a console. Just want to make sure it's normal.
 
Where? On the console itself? Nintendo never has any seals anywhere.

All their handhelds have seals keeping the tabs of the box closed. I could have sworn Wii was the same way but I'm not sure now since I bought it at launch. There's no seal keeping you from opening the box is what I meant.

well if they are working on something with Nintendo it makes sense they'd want to work extra hard on this to keep in Nintendo's good books

Oh the box. No clue. I don't think it does since they have those colored tapes "sealing" the wrapping around the hardware and stuff like that. Once you remove them, they're tough to put back on, iirc.

Ah, ok. I was just nervous since the download codes are in an unsealed plastic sleeve and the first thing you see.

oh. maybe it's that best buy doesn't have either for display, even in the wii u section. i know target doesn't have any at all though.
 
I almost haven't played my Wii U since buying it in September but around Christmas it's gonna get some serious play time if I get the 2 Wii remote plus controllers and a nunchuck.

Super Mario 3D World co-op and Wii Sport Club bowling woo!

Also, can I use the Wii Remote and nunchuck for 3D World? And how is Mario Galaxy when playing it on the GamePad with a Wii controller?

It's entirely possible. When Best Buy had Batman AC on sale for $20 in the spring, I went to grab one and they had none on display. I also asked about Most Wanted U and those weren't on display either. I had to ask at the customer service desk, and they had a dozen or so copies of each sitting in the back. o_O
 
Why is that sad? (Just curious.)

Just how every game is rushed out these days. Maybe they will be patched, maybe not.

Enough so that the way to judge a multiplat game is by which has the fewest bugs.

Of course this is a very broad look at things. I just thought it was funny.
 
Depends on the game. Metroid Blast on foot? Nope.

It annoys me that I can't use the Gamrpad as a sensor for all games.

Pikmin would be great using the sensor. Since I have a projector set up I have to run the sensor to my coffee table going over the couch. Then put it back after. I have a couple of wireless bars but they don't work well at all.
 
Ducktales needs to be added to OP, now that it's coming retail at Nov 12th!

Here's some shots I found that could help, maybe. :)

I believe you can use those controllers for 3D World. Haven't played Mario Galaxy on the GamePad unfortunately.

Yes, you can use the Wii Remote and Nunchuk control scheme in 3D World. And Galaxy on the GamePad is exactly as you would expect. It's like playing on a small TV.
 
With Target's B2G1 free deal I am going to get COD:Ghost, AC4 and Maybe Mario and Sonic. The deal is just outside Mario release date, so pissed.

Yea I wanted to get NBA 2k14 PS4, AC4 PS4 and Mario 3D but now I gotta find something else in place of Mario :[

Probably some stupid crap like Killzone or CoD for PS4 ehhhhhh

I would pick Batman Origins or Deus Ex instead of CoD :P
And don't worry. You'll find a sweet deal for 3D World once Black Friday is here.
 
Wow, just found out that I have spent around 5.5 hours in all on my Wii U since buying it in August. :/

It probably have to do with me not having any Nintendo games, :/
Guess I'll try go on with Ass Creed 3 but it's just so slow and I don't have much time in my days anymore.

NintendoLand is a succes with the gf though but I quickly bought a screen protection, as she just pushed that stylus down on the screen lol.

It'll definitely get more playing time when I get Wii U Party, Mario 3D World and Wii Sports Club. And then I just want NSMB, Pikmin 3 and Wind Waker HD. Can't wait for those 2014 titles as well.

It's nice, Luigi's Mansion 2 were my first Luigi's Mansion game. New Leaf were my first Animal Crossing game. And Super Smash Bros 4 is gonna be my first Smash Bros game! Heck, even Pikmin 3 will be my first Pikmin. Can I play it in the GamePad off TV without using the Wii remote + nunchuck?

Now I just gotta get that larger battery around Christmas.

EDIT: Just turned on my Wii U and sat and stared into the GamePad. Really didn't know what to play. Not in the mood for AC3 and just bought Zombi U but I'm not into a horror right now heh. Really wish Nintendo had demos of their games on eShop.

They have a demo for The Wonderful 101 which should be ON YOUR GODDANG RADAR! (if not on your shelf already!)
 
But really, is there anything I have learned through the years being part of GAF is, that I shouldn't listen to GAF's opinion most of the time, cause which games I'm attracted to differs many times, because we are many individuals. I have always wanted to love Platinum Games but I realize their games are just not my type of games anymore. I have been burned too many times on recommendations where I have only played a game for a week maximum before getting bored.

Anyway, here's hoping Nintendo will release demos of some of their own games on their eShop service some day. :)

I can understand. Luckily, I know my own taste in games, so I know what I'll like to play. Some games people here swear by are games I'd never touch. I do enjoy experimenting sometimes, though. But that's something I do on my own. Funny enough, I generally don't like Nintendo's games, yet their systems are my most played. Crazy how that works out.
 
Regarding Donkey Kong Tropical Freeze.. do we know if we still have to shake/waggle our controllers to perform tricks? I recently finished Country Returns and my God it was a frustrating mechanic.

I was just thinking about this yesterday. Are you referring to the ground pound and blow moves? Im pretty sure blow is gone, but i forget...
