That shit looks awesome.

One question, are all control inputs possible(well I am talking about wiimote and nunchuck and controller pro specifically)

Ill add up to this question:

The other day i decided to play Yoshi (from the 0.30 promotion) with my girlfriend.

I was on the gamepad.

She was on the WiiU pro controller.

Then we noticed: Both were player 1.

I went to the controller settings. Tried the "change order" option. But it works in a way "the first controller you press a button will be Player 1, while Gamepad is also Player 1"

The stupid solution was to get a wiimote to be "Player 1" and then we were able to map Pro Controller as Player 2.


So we needed 3 controllers to play a 2 player game

Questions:

- IS THIS RIGHT????????? Or there´s another way to map the controllers?
- Does this happens only on VC or other games too?
 
It seems there's a patch available for Mario & Luigi: Dream Team. No idea what it does.
Mainly a bug fix. According to Nintendo:

- On Mount Pajamaja, at the time you break the ice with a spin jump against the Massif Brothers, we fixed the problem in the game that wouldn’t let you progress when you spoke to the Massif Brothers, depending on how you proceeded.

- Late in the game against Antasma, we corrected the problem that didn’t let the battle end properly in certain circumstances.

- In addition, we fixed some other small problems to make the game run more smoothly.

umm... I understand why they did it like this.. But can you change the wiimote to player 2 (the 2nd LED lit)? or with only one wiimote it HAS TO be player 1?

You know, there is a controller map function, but I remember it being set up in a rather obtuse manner. I can't test it right now, but I almost think the trick hinges upon whether you're using the Gamepad or a Remote/Classic/Pro to enter the Options menu. For some odd reason, SOME controller assignment features aren't present if you enter with one of those two...

I can't remember how it works at the moment, though -- but it IS possible to play as, say, player 2 on the GamePad while someone else is Player 1 on a different controller -- or vica versa. I remember doing it.
 
I'll be a +1 to not bothering with Sonic Generations unless you're a HUGE Sonic fan. It works and all, but it's just so underdeveloped. It's super short, and a number of the levels just don't feel like they spent hardly any time on them whatsoever. At the very least, I'd say look into all the Advance (well, maybe not 3) and Rush (+Colors DS which is pretty much Rush 3) before grabbing it, as it's definitely a lesser version of those.
 
You know, I discovered last night that there's no longer any way to view photos or videos from an SD card on the Wii U. I found some articles online talking about them adding that functionality, but nothing so far. That kind of sucks. :(

Gonna give this a try soon. Only tried to map the controllers using the Gamepad

Ill post it back here.

Enter the VC menu, tap the player number button in the upper right corner, switch GamePad to player 2. Done.
 
Does anyone else have Sonic Racing on Wii U? I'm getting really fucking sick of people dropping because they're losing.

My NNID is Ray00101 if anyone would like to play.

You were never able to watch videos on Wii.
 
I really just wanted the photo option to show my kids the pictures from the GP of Baltimore this past weekend. I was surprised it was gone from the Wii mode and nothing to replace it on Wii U.
