Say, Thunderbird Starkiller, how's Epic Mikey 2 on the Wii U? I may want to get that game down the road.

Nintendo Gaming / Post your Nintendo Wii U Collection as an image!

« on: January 20, 2013, 04:27:46 AM »

Hey guys! I want to try out something fun and different. Instead of always writing down what games and controllers you have, just post an image of what you got for the Nintendo Wii U!


This is my current collection! I also own Trine 2 as well as Nano Assault Neo from the eShop.









Now it's your turn!

Nintendo Gaming / Re: Wii U - The Road to E3 - 5/11/13

« on: January 20, 2013, 04:20:16 AM »

Time flies by so fast! It's already 2013! In 6 months it's finally time for another E3 Press Conference! I just can't wait for it...! I hope Nintendo will show a lot of games again, because last year's E3 was phenomenal. They just went on and on with games, and now I own most of them and I am so happy with the Wii U and my Nintendo 3DS! It's hard to play through so many games, I wish I can finish most of them this year.


I want to make one simple and safe prediction for E3 2013, I think the newest Mario Kart game will be shown for Wii U. Oh man, I can't wait for that title. The Mario Kart series is one of my favorites of all time! If you have friends to play it with you, you will just have a good time!

I bought Hydroventure: Spin Cycle on the Nintendo 3DS eShop 2 or 3 weeks ago. Like it a lot, it's a very unique game. I recommend it to anyone who wants to try out new gameplay styles with a twist!

« on: January 17, 2013, 01:36:10 PM »

I want to get Rayman Legends next month, then Monster Hunter in March. In May/June I'll be getting Darksiders 2 which I'm still very interested in. In between those times I will also download Fist of The North Star Ken's Rage 2 and hopefully The Cave too. Oh, and I'll be getting Luigi's Mansion Dark Moon in March for the 3DS too.


All right, as you can see, I have a lot of work to do in Q1 2013, LOL!

Nintendo Gaming / Re: Virtual Console dead? Something new to rise from the ashes?

« on: January 14, 2013, 04:32:04 PM »

The upcoming *Wii* Virtual Console page has been removed from the Japanese site. Because the one for Wii U is now being made... This is a good sign.
Just be patient until the Wii U Virtual Console arrives. Good things come to them who wait.

Nintendo Gaming / Re: The Wii U is Getting **** Upon When It Comes to Third Party Games

« on: January 08, 2013, 11:50:39 AM »

Third parties: It needs a bigger fanbase until we make (more) games for it.


Consumers: We won't buy it until more games are released.


>Logic.


In all honestly Wii U is doing really good with the sales right now, it's just behind the Wii. And that with being $100 more! It looks to me that Third parties are just finding excuses again to not bring their games on Wii U. Even though Nintendo fixed everything they cried for...

Nintendo Gaming / Re: Pokémon X/Y

« on: January 08, 2013, 11:45:45 AM »

Wow, this looks so incredible! I can already imagine the upcoming online battles with those stunning battle animations...! Also, I'm glad they decided to create a new generation to the Pokémon series, so we will see even more new Pokémons and new places to explore! We will have about 700 different Pokémons! That's freaking amazing, imagine all the possible teams that you could make out of this giant selection.


I'm also really liking the starter Pokémons as well as the new Legendaries. I'll be getting Pokémon X which features this deer looking Pokémon.

General Chat / Re: "Hey I'm new!" Official Introduce Yourself to the Internet Thread

« on: January 02, 2013, 06:32:39 PM »

Hey there! I am... Kinda new here actually! I joined last year, around the time E3 2012 has occurred. (June 2011)
Around that time, I haven't been that active in the forums of Nintendo World Report, but I have been a reader of the site since a few years now. A few weeks back, I wanted to look up this forum while I was visiting the site yet again. I really liked the topics and theards in here, so I decided to participate a bit. Even though I visit the forums more often now, I am still not the most active member when it comes to posting, but I enjoy reading the whole variety of theards on here!


As for my Personality, I am a 17 years old male and I come from the European country known as Switzerland. My English may not the best, or it might sound strange, so accept my apologies for that!
Now, I even consider myself as a Nintendo fanboy. I love everything Nintendo! I do despise the competitors from them on a certain level, but I don't feel the need to show it. Most of the time I don't even care about the other companies, I just look up to Nintendo when it comes to gaming. I am also currently Nintendo-only when it comes to owning gaming systems. I actually owned a PS3 and a 360 (to see what this "hardcore buzz" is all about), but sold them as they just collected dust....
Well, other than that. I am more of a quiet and patient guy, I don't participate in online fights or anything similar to that. I am in the believe that in those situations silence is just the best answer.


I think that's enough for now. You can add me as a "buddy" here on NWR, send me messages, or follow me on the Nintendo Miiverse: "DigitalGreenTea"


Happy Gaming!

I wonder what we're going to see at E3 2013! So far I was pleased with every E3 Nintendo has brought to us since I've started seeing them in 2007. Nintendo has always managed to make the the game supply just right with the Wii and 3DS. So I won't see any change with the Wii U, although I do fear for some overload of games as it is the case right now, haha!

Nintendo Gaming / Re: NWR Survey! What Wii U Games Do You Own?

« on: December 20, 2012, 01:41:51 PM »

I own these following Nintendo Wii U games:

• Nintendo Land
• New Super Mario Bros. U
• ZombiU
• Sonic & All-Stars Racing Transformed
• Batman Arkham City: Armored Edition
• Call Of Duty: Black Ops II
• Tank! Tank! Tank!
• Trine 2

I really enjoy playing all of them and using the Miiverse along side them. The only game that has disappointed me so far is Tank! Tank! Tank! It honestly looks more fun in a YouTube video than it actually is.
Sadly, because of life priorities I don't have that much time to play them. Some of them will remain unbeaten for quite a while. But I'm working my way on in NSMBU to collect all the Star Coins. It's a tough game, especially collecting these Star Coins, they are very well hidden.

The beauty of Wii U is to enter the internet browser in no time, watch a walkthrough and get back to play the game.

-Voice chat: Like, there is no excuse why this cannot be implimented, regardless if this is a port of  the 3DS version.

It does feature voice chat, the Wii U version. Here's a video showing it, look closely to the health bar. It's a microphone symbol, and I've asked a Japanese player who got the game, he said it works with headsets.

I haven't experienced any problems with my Wii U since launch. I never actually had a problem with any system. Even my old 360 from2008 never had RROD. I sold it not too long ago. Going back to my roots - Nintendo only.

I think you guys are a bit overreacting to thi. Get an $70 1TB External Harddrive with AC Adapter and you will never have to worry about this ever  again. Oh, and don't tell me it's too expensive, 360 HDDs cost the same and you only get around 250 GB. Here you get more than double.

Nintendo Gaming / Re: Wii U gets little 3rd party love.

« on: December 12, 2012, 02:08:33 PM »

I think this is ridiculous... The system came out last month. Just like with previous systems, third parties will come once the system is out for longer and they get a developer kit. Most third party developers didn't have a kit when the Wii U wasn't out yet. I don't understand why sites like Kotaku always want systems to be perfect the day it launched. They need to look back and see what Nintendo has improved on over the last few console generations.


Besides, the Wii U is getting cool exclusives early next year, Rayman Legends[/color], Lego City: Undercover[/font][/color], Pikmin 3[/font][/color] and Game & Wario. These games alone would keep me entertained for more than half a year.[/font]

Nintendo Gaming / Re: WiiU external hard drive

« on: December 09, 2012, 10:57:11 AM »

I noticed that when I power on my system, the harddrive comes on too, but it takes a few minutes after I've logged into my account and am at the WiiU screen for it to boot up register on the system. So when I initially get to the home screen, there aren't any downloaded games or the little USB icon at the bottom indicating a drive is attached. When I wait a few minutes, or go to another menu and come back, it pops up along with my games. Just an FYI for other folks who have harddrives attached and may be freaking out when their drive and downloaded games don't show up immediately upon boot up. I'm hoping Nintendo fixes this in an update, but as long as I know it's not a hardware failure on the WiiU or harddrive end, I can wait a few minutes to have my stuff pop up. 

Do you use a Harddrive without an AC Adapter? Because Nintendo recommends one that has an external power supply. That is because the Wii U can't give out that much power through the USB port because it needs the power for itself, it's not a PC. That could be why the Harddrive goes on when you turn on the Wii U and causes longer loading times.


I'm getting one soon too, the ones who use an AC Adapter have more storage than usual Harddrives - I think I'll go with 1-2 TB so I never have to worry about this problem ever again. Plus, these things are cheap actually!  :-)

Nintendo Gaming / Re: NoE prevents adults from downloading 'mature content' between 4AM - 11PM.

« on: December 07, 2012, 03:23:12 PM »

Based on the news stories I had read I assumed it was Europe wide, but if you're able to download 18+ games at any point in the day then I guess it's not. Interesting.

It could be because my country is not part of the European Union, which might have laws like that. If that's the case I wouldn't be surprised to see similar things on the systems of Nintendo's Competition.
