did we hear of any shipment numbers for Japan?
normally this would have been common knowledge, hope we don't end up with another UK 40k
here we go...
I need sleep 9am but been up all night
I'll wake up in 8 hours so I can add some Japan GAF to my friend's list

I believe the one in blue is just a typical Japanese policeman, or he could be a politician, it's hard to tell.
That's up to Ubi.
I haven't been hyped up for a demo since my early PC magazine demo CDs days. To think it would be for a Rayman game ...

It is now launch day in Japan, but sales don't start for another 8 hours.

hey, can anyone confirm if resident evil works on the wii u via the wii menu? a store near me is selling the game for £5 and I'd love to be able to play it but want to confirm it actually works first.

This is a super specific issue but maybe someone here has tried it out.
The Wii VC version of Punch Out! Had some obnoxious input lag to the point where it was borderline unplayable. Does this issue still exist on Wii U?
I know it's just running on a basically Wii emulator but I'm hoping it has somehow rectified it.

that sucks.
Nope. All the games I got are awesome. The only game I was iffy about was Sonic, but turned out to be awesome.
nice... up to now i really have no interest in the game.
rayman origin's demo didn't click with me, i'm curious to try this one though
totally agree... at least there should be some kind of hint to understand if you already played that part of the game
Finally picked up my deluxe last night. After about 2.5 hours of updating/transferring, I got to play for maybe 15 minutes before bed.
I look forward to tonight. BTW, add me guys!

EDIT: Is there an official nnID thread?
Yep
Give Origins a chance, if you can, it's pretty cheap nowadays. The demo(s) didn't click for me either but I bought it because I wanted something to play on the Vita and ended up liking it a lot.
Not the greatest 2D platformer of all-time (or this generation) as its most ardent fans love to claim, but it's a very solid game nonetheless.

I was under the impression that pubs decide the number of downloads. With "unlimited" being an option as well...

Are there any noteworthy eShop releases in the rest of 2012? I ask because I have 15 sitting on my account and am tempted to get Mighty Switchforce HD.
Actually they do, shops in Hong Kong and Taiwan got the units on Thursday and selling everywhere.
And the Japan server and 2.1.0 update is already up (around 8pm tonight)
You probably see those people from either Hong Kong or Taiwan, or even Mainland China

Yep, it downloaded the update and lauched an endless grey screen. At least it didn't freeze the console pushing home button let me quit the app.
Not as "instant" as it's advertised, so far. I'm curious about it as I don't have other cable tv or internet movie services (apart from itunes) but it has to be reliable and the streaming needs to be perfect.

Not sure if this has been covered much on here, but Ive seen it mentioned in a couple of Wii U reviews.
I have the deluxe console and Im OCD with all my stuff. However there are quite a few scratches on it already. When I first set it up I used the feet to stand the console vertically. I took great care putting them on too. However upon removing them both feet have scratched both sides of the console. Also finger marks seem really hard to remove even with a microfibre cloth.
The Gamepad is okay so far, but if I am OCD with my stuff I can only imagine what some Wii U's will look like after a couple of months.

So is there going to be another firmware update tomorrow for everyone with the Japanese launch?
Japan Wii U is 2.1.0J after update, so it should be the same as US/Europe

Is there much hope for a drastic increase in the COD population at xmas? Went on last night and was shocked to see how few people there were.
Probably little inferno. Cute and a nice fire mechanic, but it didn't draw me in

I have RE4 and it played identical to how it played on Wii.
Assassin's Creed 3. The framerate is just horrible; it meets the target of 30 when you look at the ground or sky, but pretty much never during normal gameplay. Feels like N64 Ocarina of Time at some points.
From what I understand though, it doesn't perform much worse than the PS3/360 versions. (Doesn't make it any better, of course.)

It uses a completely different file system, Wii U's idea of partitions is not the same as Windows' idea of partitions.
I would buy it in a heartbeat if it was Digital Download.

Why? COD is the perfect game to have a physical copy of, so you can trade it in when the next installment comes and all your friends move on.
I am going the DL route with the Wii U and I never trade in games.

Maybe I'm wrong but I swear I saw it up on the eshop yesterday after the update?
