This thread is getting me excited for tomorrow morning!
Darksiders 2 - 7.5 [IGN]
My Summary:
Darksiders 2 developers had the perfect opportunity to fix glitches and bugs, but instead decided not to. Darksiders 2 is lovely game that could had rivalled the top-tier Zelda games, unfortunately it was riddled with game breaking bugs just around every corner, e.g like getting a statue permanently stuck in the corner of a room. Most of these issues could had been fixed with a patch, but Vigil Games are just not bothered.

I'm prepping my setup for the Wii U at the moment; am I to assume that the Wii and Wii U's power supply is different? Leaving the sensor bar and the ethernet port at the moment.

Am away to bed soon so I won't be creating it - but someone should make a "Wii U Misc. Review Thread" for games without their own review threads/OT's.
IGN has 2 reviews Batman and Darksiders.
Basically saying their good ports (Batman is held back by poor use of the gamepad); so I think its important to have somewhere people get clear information on these types of reviews as oppose to getting lost in the mayhem here.
So yeah, be good if someone can set something like that up; just for games like this that otherwise would go ignored. Clearly Darksiders is as good (if not better with new controls) as its other versions and a strong port if people don't already own. Batman meanwhile sounds like a decent port but the gamepad is used poorly and that gimmicky launch way we've seen all too many times; not so much a must have if already owned but certainly nothing dreadful.
Course other reviews might say otherwise. Hence the need for such a thread.

So I have no hope of just walking into a store and finding the Deluxe version tomorrow huh? Wasn't planning to get one at launch, but my wife and I were at the mall yesterday and she tried the demo unit at Gamestop and fell in love. This morning she told me she wanted one lol.

Low Res? Do they know it outputs at 1080p?

The power brick looks bigger for Wii U. And the plug that goes in the back of the console isn't universal between the Wii and Wii U from what I've seen.
They do. And they even state it a few times. And they like to point out that while the games can display at 1080p, they don't all look as crisp and clean as the other two consoles and the graphics are on par. Well that's news to me. =x

The Verge review reads more like a 3/10. Terrible screen. Terrible OS. Horrible load times. What did they like?
EDIT: n/m, I forgot that Verge and Polygon are separate entities now.
Verge review is clearly pre-update. Not saying that some complains aren't legitimate but they didn't review it with the update.
Edit: scratch that, they're saying that they will update the review once they'll get to use more of the online functionality that the update enabled. Still, the review isn't complete.

I can't *believe* these lazy developers keep making file sizes so damn large. Btw, how does technology work?

Not white knighting, but I do have a hard time taking things from The Verge seriously based on their Droid DNA review.
Heh, based on my time with the store demos, their description of the touch screen is completely false.

I can see it!! I can see what you did there! Yay me!
People complaining about the button layout should be ignored.

Seems like the most non gaming people hyped are the re-sellers thinking they're going to make a killing again like they did with the original Wii.
I doubt demand will be as high as it was then when literally everyone and their mama wanted one.

Why isn't this line moving?! :[
How are the folks at The Verge usually towards Nintendo things? Are they like most other core gaming outlets regarding Nintendo, or should I expect lots of attitude? I honestly haven't heard of them until tonight.
(And if they are like most other core outlets, why are folks treating them with any bit of seriousness? Or giving them clicks for that matter?)

Right around 30 min for Central time.
Was that review written before they had gotten the update?

"This console that will be around, growing, and evolving for years just came out 20 seconds ago. Here's our review." is how I see all of these reviews.

People complaining about a review without playing the console themselves should be ignored.

Most likely. Which is pretty dumb to do.

His statement is pretty accurate. This coming from someone that has used the controller.

No, he mentions it in his review.
Well yes and no...
It is Nintendo's fault for releasing the patch so late
But then again, why can't these publications just hold off the reviews for another day or whatever till they do get more of the fuller experience?
