Support NeoGAF

[Effect]

is there any reason why Batman Arkham City Wii U is $60??? I haven't been following it much, surely it doesn't have that much new content to justify the price?

It contains all the DLC that was released. It's a game of the year edition with additional Wii U controls plus new skins for Batman and Catwoman (the armored skins). There are also suppose to be updates to the graphics as well.

That reminds me. Has WB said anything about adding additional in-game Miiverse support? I know developers only just got access to it but have they said anything about adding support in the future once they got access?

Cross post from some other threads, we have fragmented threads now so I'll just put this here too.


FYI: Newegg is shipping out my Zombi U on Friday and said I can expect it on Monday the 19th.

Here's the email I got from them:

If someone is, can you mention whether or not there's a player editor in the game? There hasn't been one in any of the Wii versions, and my general pernickityness refuses to accept an inability to change a player rating I disagree with. I assume/hope being able to update transfers is a given.

I'm in the UK so won't be getting my mitts on a U for a while yet, but when I do, NSMBU, ZombiU, BlOps2 and FIFA (should the above condition be met) will be my launch day buys, with Pikmin 3 and Wonderful 101 lined up for the future.

I don't know about the player editor, I know its missing ultimate team and the latest impact and pass engines, but the graphics are supposed to be better

I didnt see anywhere that the graphics are supposed to be better...actually people were saying it look worst from the demos played everywhere

I thought that was because they were using the same E3 demo all the time. If I recall they said some things were running in real time when they weren't in the other versions. Maybe it will or won't. No one has seen a retail copy of it yet.

Sounds about right. That's usually how mine ship. They usually ship out the day before or on weekend items the Friday before.

The Wii U trailer they released specifically said the 18th at the end.

Unless you're talking about the EU release date?

Hmm, my pre-orders for ZombiU and Darksiders II are at Newegg. Here's hoping I get the friday shipping outsies.

Edit...yup I mixed up our release with Europe's. Whoo.

Scribblenauts and fifa could WINK see WINK a similar deal.

Are you talking about the Toys R Us deal? I'd hope to see Wii U games for a lot less than $50 on Black Friday.

I don't do my GAME shopping at Toys R Us, I STOPed that ages ago. And don't expect major deals when the system will only be out for like a week.

Nice. It's why I didn't want to buy to much on day one. Holiday sales and I fully expect certain titles to drop in price quicker then others leading into the new year.
