It is $14.99 according to Nintendo's website That's assuming you are living in North America, though I'm not sure... I might try Dr. Luigi, but it's not a priority. I think I am going to buy Earthbound actually. So happy that I'm in love with my Wii U finally. It's a great feeling. No longer do I walk in and mock it for collecting dust. Now it's my serious gaming console aside from the 3DS
Yea, the ps4/xbox people will scoff at gimmicky features like the gamepad, but once you use it, it's so convenient. Even if you don't game on the smaller screen it's nice having additional info ready at your finger tips. No more pausing and messing with the menus (depending on game). And the wii U is *the* system to get for any sort of party fun.
I must say the most convenient thing for me is that the gameplay has no lag whatsoever when mirroring games so I can play full fledged games while watching netflix with my wife, I tried doing the same with ps4/vita remote play but It was only lag free when no one else was using the wifi so might as well play it on the tv. The gamepad doesnt have amazing range in my house but it works flawesly most of the time and is suprisingly comfy to use even for extended periods.
I was under the impression you could connect the Vita to the PS4 via a local connection between the two consoles. Is that not possible? I'm wondering if that would make the lag marginal when using Wifi for Netflix and such. Off of that topic: I beat Super Mario 3D World the other night! 30 hours! I think the reason my playtime was a little higher than some is because I ventured out to get all the stars and stamps, and some hours were dedicated to multiplayer with my mom and one of my friends, Joe. Such a brilliant game. <3
My wii u went to 3 different houses over xmas. Wii party u, nintendoland, Mario 3d world and loads of wii sports... One night i took the balance board to a mates and 4 of us took turns on the wii fit multiplayer games.... So much choice and flexibility with this console. One of the best games of last year, Rayman Legends, arguably as good as any Mario game past or present. Having immense fun going through that on the wii u, as is my gf. Hooked. It's definitely the best version on wii u as the 'Murfy' levels need the touchscreen. Having played most of it previously on the pc, i was surprised just how more challenging those levels become. Bargain price for Rayman now.... I got it for £17 delivered on Amazon and i think it's around £23 on the nintendo store. Buy it, you wont regret it!
I finally found one of those at Best Buy... I have been looking for them since November or so, but Best Buy finally had them. I bought that snap lickety-split!
So Nintendo is in trouble, but we love our Wii U. I also really like Wii Fit U. The best part is actually the Fit Meter Challenges. It's a cool way to motivate you to walk and it's working for me. I've been taking more walks so I can scale pyramids and make my way virtually around NYC.
New Nintendo Direct tomorrow. And it might be a big one. Soraya Saga retweeted the announcement which means there likely will be a new trailer for X.
The direct will be 41 minutes and will also have new info on the new smash bros and quite likely bayonetta 2 and maybe new announcements
