Title: Episode 65: Completely Incomplete
Post by: oksoda on December 22, 2012, 09:06:27 AM

Listener mail, what we've been playing, an in-depth look at Assassin's Creed 3, and the return of Dino Chat!

http://www.nintendoworldreport.com/connectivity/32868

Welcome! We are back from our Kirby-centric episode and have three segments for you this week.

Kicking things off, Scott, Neal, Zach, and Patrick answer some listener mail about whether or not New Super Mario Bros. U is a system seller and how willing we are to jump into an all downloadable future. After that, the boys talk about the games they've been playing this week, including ZombiU, Wario Land II, Runner 2, XCOM: Enemy Unknown, and more. Oh, and Zach has a great joke at the end.

After that, Patrick and Danny go in-depth with Assassin's Creed III and the series as a whole. How does the new entry compare to the games past? Is there any reason to play this on the Wii U over other systems? Why can't Danny ask a girl for her phone number? These questions and more will be answered!

Wrapping up the show is a bonus segment that sees the return of Dino Chat with Zach and Scott. Come along as Zach teaches us about the origins of different species of dinosaurs, how dinosaurs may have hunted, and exactly how many different types of dinosaurs there are; afterward, he pours a 40oz. on the curb for each of them!

As always, you can click here to send us listener mail. Next week, we are going to take a look back at 2012 and ponder what's ahead for 2012. If you have fond memories or predictions, send them our way. Happy holidays!

 Zach, have you heard that Walking with Dinosaurs is coming to PS Wonderbook? Now that’s a game I want to hear your impressions of.  :)

The Wii U eShop might be easier to navigate if each game company had its own segment of the service similar to what Steam does with game companies who support their store. For example, on the the top of the eShop there is a rotatable list of developers ranging from Nintendo, to EA, Activision, Ubisoft, etc. Now, say I want to find Assassin's Creed 3. All I would have to do is click the icon titled "Ubisoft" and any software available from that developer will be presented in a list going down the middle of the screen. You can then customized the list to feature new games at the top and old ones at the bottom, or highlight demos or games that are on sale for the moment. Is the real thing anything like this?
