Bolt is actually an awesome movie. Only slightly behind Meet The Robinsons (which is a huge compliment)

Where's the list of WiiU IDs? I think mine is nicoga3000
So after I posted my pictures on the last page, I actually had to drive all the way back to the Best Buy...because even though the outer box was clearly for the Wii U version of Disney Infinity, when I opened it up, the game that was inside was the Wii version, NOT the Wii U version =/ so had to drive all the way back there and exchange it.
I'm excited to play the game, but at this point, I wanna just get some sleep before I play lol Been up most of the night.

Has anyone played it on the Wii U? I'm actually pretty bummed I didn't get that one since everyone here seems to have gotten that SKU.
Just generally I'm wondering about performance. I got to see a Wii U version pre-release at an event and it was pretty stuttery. Every time the player performed some form of interactive action, it would pause a bit. Disney people said that it wasn't the final version so bugs like that would be fixed, but I'd still like to know graphics wise and performance wise how the Wii U stacks up

Played 10 minutes of the first Toybox area, on Wii U.
The area you wind up in after the tutorial(or during the tutorial?).
Anyway, did it splitscreen with a sibling, and it's amazingly fun. Each character has witty banter against the other, my Randall was chattin' it up with Jack Sparrow!
When I tried going to the museum/hall of heroes(?) area, the game froze, and locked up the Wii U. Eh...
Restarted, and jumped straight into Lone Ranger co-op, and the world is pretty big(some areas are locked off at the start, so the beginning area is pretty big).
The combat is fun, riding horses and donkeys is fun, but unfortunately the framerate dips down quite a bit every now and then. It's not horrific drops, but its definitely noticeable. Still playable, though.
I'm gonna go back in a while to do the Incredibles playset.

Gutted that the toy box mode isn't like the toy story one
I absolutely loved doing the little missions and collecting things in that
Still I'm hoping for some fun creations to download

Monsters University I beat in about 8 hours to complete every mission and unlock every toy to the toy box. Pirates took me just under 7 hours for the same thing. Right now playing through Incredibles. It all depends on how thorough you want to be. If you're just focusing on story, you can knock off an hour or two.

is it true that there's no network play and just local co-op?

About 7-8 hours for each? That's sounds good to me. Do you think the game is worth full price?

Absolutely. The play sets are extremely fun, and they are most like the Toy box mode of Toy Story 3. $75 for over 20 hours of pretty diverse gameplay (each playset plays vastly different from the other) with some sweet figures to boot is IMO a much better deal than Skylanders. Like I said in my previous posts, the Toy Box mode is a little too clunky for my taste. They could have really simplified the controls and add a Snap-to mode, to make things like tiling terrain easier, but instead, it's all just a little too precise and 'floaty'. This could be fixed with the iPad app that lets you build world for Toy Box, but until then, I think I'll just download levels from more patient players who can deal with the controls.
I went PS3 for dem trophies....
My two things are the Wii U might make menu management a lot easier by having things on the Gamepad, but I don't have a second controller on Wii U. Does the game allow you to use Wii remotes on Wii U?

Disney Infinity's playsets are actually very similar to Toy Story 3's toybox mode. Disney Infinity's toybox mode is like Garry's Mod for kids.

It requires Wii Remotes for 2nd play on Wii U, pro pad is not supported.
I also want to know this. The most info I can find is from the website itself.
"Stay connected with DISNEY INFINITY: Toy Box, a free download for your PC (coming October 2013) and iPad (coming late August)"
http://infinity.disney.com/ways-to-play#home
So maybe PC version has similar functionality as the iPad version? Toybox only, no playsets?

Great--thanks for the writeup. I'll be picking it up. I love the fact they went crossplatform for toy box mode. Really hoping some talented people get a hold of this.

Just got my haul. Sidekicks and Villains packs for $15 each from Walmart, Lone Ranger set $17.50 from Target , and ended up PMing the Cars set for $17.50 at Walmart due to the streetdate error.
So about $65 for the 2 sets and 6 figures. Good deal!
Now just to wait for the game to arrive from Amazon...and then to wait till Christmas for my boys to open it.
It's going to be a loooong few months...

I don't want to play this game with that stupid nunchuk crap. 360 all way!!
So I picked up 8 exclusive TRU packs and ended up with 8 Mickey Cars. Terrible. I have an extra Alice in Wonderland and Mulan (horse I think).
Looking for anything TRON or the Dumbo ride. PM me please if interested.

Hopefully this will be patched in since the box (game and bundle) show Wii U Pro and Wii Classic Pro controller support. That and I don't believe the Gamepad screen is really used for anything that couldn't be (or isn't already) mapped to a button as well.
One other issue I'm having the the Wii U version is that, like some other Wii U games, it seems to not output proper surround sound in game. With the Wii U setup to use surround sound and the console connected to my receiver with HDMI, I get the multi channel surround as expected, but nothing plays out of the surround speakers. I know Mario Wii U does this intentionally as it is a 2D game, but I find it hard to believe that Infinity does not have surround sound built in.

TRON disks aren't out yet. All that is in the TRU packs are Mike's Car plus a random.

Ahh. I thought they were released today. Is there a site with a timeframe or something?
Man, this was so hard for me...opened up all my figures finally. I mentioned earlier in the thread, that I still have a lot of Skylanders I haven't open...I dunno what it is, but I just have such a hard time opening toys, because of "value". I just said screw it though, because I wanna use these.
They just barely fit on the little shelf I have now...might need to come up with a better solution once more come out.

Looks like this will be divisive
Just seen three reviews it got 5 stars on a site called pocket lint, 2 stars on digital spy and 8 out of 10 on another site
I imagine the fun you take from it depends on your view on Disney and its worlds
Edit - as above lol lets hope digital spy just had a grumpy pants reviewing

This information pretty much just came out yesterday. The Toys R Us website even says that they are random in the pack when they really are just Mikes Car and 1 other random disc.

Ok I've spent enough, now. Got just about everything except a few individual characters.
Not really liking how fragmented the experience is with Infinity right now. Maybe I'm just used to watching my son play Skylanders, which is really straight-forward.
