Nintendo Gaming / Re: Wii U
« on: October 21, 2012, 10:48:01 PM »
my closest GameStop hasn't got their station yet, but said they would "soon". Pretty excited to try it, especially after reading hands-on impressions from the people that have played it. Starting to get in that 'new Nintendo system excitement' mode...


Although the complete lack of advertisement in the US thus far is a bit puzzling / possibly worrying...

it certainly gets the point across, which is all that's important. I just think they could do better. Hoping the US ones are closer to the initial Wii ads.

KickStarter for Nintendo to acquire the rights to Mega Man...?


Also, I have absolutely no idea who holds the rights (R*?), but I'd pay any amount of money for a Silicon Valley sequel. Nintendo needs to get on that.

i hear they're (at least partially) inspired by Club Nintendo feedback...? That's awesome. I love NSMB2 way more than i thought I would, and the DLC, at first glance, has already exceeded my expectations.


Hoping our ND has a little more than this, though...

5
what about the 3DS version? Is that the gimped version?
yeah. The 3DS version won't have the Object Editor, according to the feature in NP.


Also, this is the one game I'm 'for sure' getting at launch. It just sounds/looks so good.

yeah, i NEED this. I'll start a petition if we don't get it stateside. Yes, over an eShop game. It sounds so good.

Does anyone know if any stores have display units up? I just want to see this thing in person.


My local BestBuy does. I swear i read that GameStop would, but none of the stores I've been to have had them...

So does this all but confirm that Nintendo is launching in black (maybe not exclusively)?


I'd say it's a given, because I'm pretty sure they were only advertising the Wii in white at this point before its release. Could be wrong, though.


I just want that yellow-green that they didn't use for Wii.

Ah, i see. My bad.


Anyway, yeah, my brother also bought the digital copy (dem Club Nintendo coins) and indeed brought home a soulless receipt.

found this on BestBuy:

not necessarily a card, but maybe more than just GameStop will be selling codes(?)

Nintendo Gaming / Re: What's the problem with Community Nights?
« on: August 22, 2012, 12:17:55 AM »
my thoughts, from the Community Night post:
I like that we pick what to play, but I (personally) would like to see Community Night be on Saturday... Basically just because most people are home on the weekend, and it might be easier to set stuff up that way. Plus it'd be more relaxed, for me anyway. Because it's on monday / tuesday (now), it's hard for me to make any time due to work and/or school.

^^ i think there's in-game FCs that you need to exchange. Could be wrong, but i'll check to make sure.

Edit: yup. Multiplayer > Nintendo Wi-Fi Connection > Party Invite > Add Friend.

So if anyone wants to play some GoldenEye, follow said instructions. my GoldenEye FC:

3881 8341 2454

(Also open to other Wii suggestions)

I'm thinking about playing something on the Wii, i.e. GoldenEye or The Last Story, if anyone's down for that. It's been a (long) while since I did anything online-related on Wii.


(don't have my copy of Mario Kart Wii ATM)

16
Got my copy a few hours ago  :cool; Excite. Probably the second-to-last Wii game I buy (Kirby).

Anyone here played the MP / know what it's like? I'm kind of tempted to do it for Community Night, if it's fun.

General Gaming / Re: What is your most recent gaming purchase?
« on: August 05, 2012, 12:44:28 PM »
I wonder if it counts on... systems. :D


i just checked, it didn't recognize the control, memory card or console as part of the sale. Because Gamestop.


BUT, they added a bunch of games that weren't there last night. Among them: SM Sunshine, Luigi's Mansion, Metroid Prime 2, Paper Mario TTYD, Rogue Squadron 2 & 3. I spent most of my free cash last night so I'm just gonna go sit in the corner and cry.

« on: August 05, 2012, 12:37:31 AM »
Gamestops having a "Buy 2 get 2 Free" sale on all used Gamecube stuff, so i just grabbed a handful of... well, Gamecube games. Jedi Outcast, Battalion Wars, Baldur's Gate: Dark Alliance and Wario World, to be exact ;)  I think the sale goes through tomorrow, so I'm thinking of picking up a controller and a few memory cards as well.

20
Get it repaired and keep it. I needs muh Gamecube BC. i don't have a huge GCN library (i sold a lot of stuff when the Wii came out. I WAS BROKE), but it's all stuff that I adore and still play pretty frequently

Nintendo Gaming / Re: Nintendo Land

I guessing there will be a D/L code for it packed in. Also, i have to agree, I don't think there's any way it's as big as Wii Sports. Just the image of moms & grannies playing tennis in front of their TV was a HUGE selling point for a lot of people, and I don't think anything in Nintendo Land can excite/intrigue people like that; other than the GamePad itself... but certainly not to the THAT extent. It looks/sounds great, judging by the hands-on impressions & footage, so I'm guessing people will love it when they actually play it.

22

Here, there be Nintendo execs...

Anyway... E3 2010 is how you satisfy gamers' hunger. Granted, that leaves you with literally nothing else to talk about. But that's about the only way everyone will be happy.

I think I'll jump in. I only just started playing again, as my L Button wasn't working for a while.

i like 'em. Also: they're free AND exclusive. Nintendo doesn't HAVE to give anything for purchasing their products... no one else does.


Anyway, i got the posters, 'cuz they're totally amazing.
