A little before I launch, I saw a Wii U unit kiosk at a Target but I had no idea if it even had playable demos. I just remember a video with Reggie or something, quite possibly old Nintendo Direct footage.
At my Walmart there weren't even any demos. It was only the menu and the demos were grayed out. They don't know what the fuck they're doing (my local Walmart).
do you stand near demo kiosks and tell everyone who uses them not to base their opinion on them as the experience is subject to change™?
While there is a lot that sucks about he Wii U, I have to admit, playing NSMBU on the demo unit the other day made me go out and buy one, literally.
Took it home yesterday and performed the 3 HOUR UPDATE.
Seems like there is no standard to what's available to play on the wiiu demo units then.While there is a lot that sucks about he Wii U, I have to admit, playing NSMBU on the demo unit the other day made me go out and buy one, literally.

it's still by far the best demo unit i've ever seen

I saw a demo unit yesterday and didnt like it. I think the fact only rayman was playable is stupid. Nintendoland and NSMBU should be playable on all units.
Secondly I still think with the game pad set up as well as the wiimotes people can still mistake this for a wii with a new controller.
Nice to see you doing your job though..And me mines.This is now a Stewox thread. It's not your job to "protect" people from negative impressions, duder.
It's really hard for me to go back to non-OLED displays. Colors just ooze off of it, it's so bright and crisp. I think if I was just using the Wii U's pad exclusively I'd be ok but if I saw them side to side I think I'd see the difference. I still haven't been able to do this since I haven't gotten a Wii U but has anyone else done something like this?

There is no good way to demo the Wii U since it's biggest strength is being a social console that is enjoyed the best with additional players
But how to sell that? Their marketing is completely fucked up, maybe they should put Nintendo reps next to every kiosk, dunno :lol
Yeah of course OLED is going to win out over anything but I was pleasantly surprised with the Wii U screen and that might have something to do with it being bigger than the Vita screen and also because its HD visuals in your hands. Yeah Vita is pretty strong but obviously can't compare to the Wii U.

So why did they call it Wii U?

Exactly, his basing his OWN opinion on his OUTDATED kiosk impressions and kiosk effectiveness to OTHER casualer people. Total clusterfuck. Sorry.
And he knows better, making a big deal about something totally not important, isn't particularly healthy since it spreads false information and dilutes the internet and others may take the unnecessary bait, so I had to act accordingly.
Sadly I have to report a bad Wii U launch in Belgium...stacks and stacks of Wii U systems (basic+deluxe) being ignored by the shopping masses. Doesn't look good

I guess trolling Metacritic and (Protip: he gave all 360 games flat zeros) became boring so it's time to start making troll reviews for uh...demo kiosks.
How is this a troll thread? Honestly, I'm interested in why you claim this.
How about we critique kiosks for everything? Yes, it's dumb Nintendo mostly has videos in their kiosks right now but crappy kiosks loaded with unhelpful filler are not uncommon.
The lengths some people go through to stifle debate on here astounds me sometimes.Please list what we can or cannot critique for future threads.
Just because you don't like something, does not make it trolling. That is the most pedestrian complaint that honestly says "stop posting things I don't like".
Try to keep this in mind, and in the future you can choose to avoid this.
I'm glad you were here to save all us uninformed people. What would we ever do without you, your Nintendo Holiness?
Well I found somemore time today.
I certainly found humor in this whole thing, the way it sound, i'll admit these but bottom line is that i had nothing bad in heart, and you see most of the thread also saying demo kiosks are a joke.
We also (should) know for a fact that nintendo iwata said they won't be including all features at the launch because of effect of consumers being overwhelmed and a bunch of other reasons they probably didn't say.(saving for later)
About sales, i think the speculation-thread consensus was that it won't sell as much as wii but not as low as GCN also, taking a bigger chunk of core audience is a big difference too.
I'm saying this not to attack but to inform.
You came off with all your responses to this as a bit crazed.
So why did they call it Wii U?
which part, exactly?
which part, exactly?
lol. It couldn't be that they just weren't ready for launch. PR hook, line, and sinker.iwata said they won't be including all features at the launch because of effect of consumers being overwhelmed and a bunch of other reasons they probably didn't say.(saving for later)
Post-purchase rationalization makes people go crazy defensive it seems...
Just to be sure, I didn't bought it yet.

You couldn't make this stuff up. Brilliant. Just brilliant.Hold the phone. After all of this, you don't even own a Wii U?
