Bah, shame. :/
Think I'll just leave my old Wii as it is then, there doesn't really seem to be any benefit to moving stuff over. I have some US games on my PAL Wii that I won't be able to play on the Wii U anyway, and I'd be a bit sad to have all the playtime records on my Wii wiped off.
Nintendoland lock ups are so annoying I can barely get through a game and it dumps. I love the game though just as much as I thought I would.

You'd have to be a bit slow to not recognize the differences between a SNES and a NES whereas 3DS and DS Lite or Wii and the Wii U are nigh identical aesthetically speaking sorry but the Internet has nothing to do with the confusion. If anything Nintendo took a page out of the Genesis design play book and is worse for it.

Hate getting into the launch hype but I was so busy with my Masters program that I missed Black Ops 2, Darksiders and Assasins Creed...awfully tempting.

If you ever have friends over, you might find it worthwhile to check out the Luigi's Mansion mini-game in Nintendo Land. Even my friends that basically actively dislike video games had a lot of fun with it.

This was the first time I've ever heard of it. It means that when it comes time for me to get a Wii U, it will cost me >$600 instead of $300, as I sure ain't getting a TV that's shorter than my current CRT.
If this isn't somehow fixed, then it's going to take I dunno new TimeSplitters and a Wii U specific version of Civilization to win me over. :|
Come on, Nintendo. These are games. I thought you of all companies understood that they needn't burn gigantic holes in your pocket!

It's depressing looking at the nano assault leader boards. The game is worth the 10$, they also added 2 player local co-op.

How easy is it to buy a download-only game with the Wii U's interface? Is it fast to get to new games, and is there a listing of popular or recommended games that shows up readily without having to hunt for it? Can it be browsed on the GamePad only?
I am wondering if the shop is streamlined enough to make people interested in actually shopping on it.

I'm still deciding what to get. None of my usuals are there, so I want to get something new to play - not repetitive to the point of tedium, and perhaps with good music. I'm sure I won't get into ZombiU, so that's out...
Shame - I don't think that any of Wii U's launch games compare to The Last Story, which I'm currently playing. I don't know... I'd get AC3 had I not seen it played already. Same for Batman.
It's the game I'm buying as soon as I receive my Deluxe Digital Promotion points next month.
You mean there's not many people? Damn, I'll buy it tomorrow, I was just being lazy.

Yeah I know, I have the game on the 3DS and it looks sick on the Wii U.
I'm all hype, thought I'll buy a 20$ card, don't know what else I could buy with the other 10$, any recommendations?
I had a few lockups on the second day I had it. I moved it back to horizontal instead of vertical and haven't had a lock up since, but it could be coincidence. My brother bought one and has had constant gamepad disconnects. Sucks. He's probably going to have to call Nintendo about it.

I HATE not being able to check on Miiverse while I'm at work. What is wrong with me?
It's extremely easy, and it's on the very front page(along with Switch Force which is sitting next to Mario!). You can be at the purchase button in one click if I'm not mistaken.

Not really, no. It looks a lot better, in my opinion.

You know, I really like just loading up the system and spending a minute or two looking at the comments and pictures on the Warawara plaza. The whole interface makes it really inviting to just jump into the community and leave some comments or what have you. And yeah, I know we're getting a super-filtered version what with both the Nintendo filter plus the early-adopter enthusiasts tending not to be as douchey (I remember the first few months of XBL on the 360 where it was actually a pleasant experience) but it's nice to have an experience that's largely positive and with other excited gamers.

There is MUCH more displayed at a time, with actual focal point attractions as well, and it has a better overall aesthetic. Still takes forever to download something though.
Patience. The smart phone apps are coming...which is when Miiverse will significantly lower my productivity.

Really?
I did not know anyone felt this way about Miiverse at least not this soon. I guess you'll be getting that Smartphone or PC version when it comes?
I have not gotten into Miiverse as much I expected so far

I really like the idea of Miiverse right now, but I don't seeing it having any longevity for me. Basically a cool gimmick that I won't use unless, for whatever reason, a shit ton of my friends get a Wii U, which is doubtful.
I'm not that excited to see dumb comments by random strangers that I have 0% chance of seeing again.
It works great for Nintendo Land (mainly because of the Miis walking around your plaza). But it is really lame in Mario U so far. And I don't see it being any better for any of my other Wii U games (Darksiders 2, Zombi U, Scribblenauts, Sonic Racing).

everyone? I want one
actually I would buy a second gamepad by now if they sold them separately
Actually on multiple occasions I've had messages appear for particular stages that tell me to look out for a secret exit there. That's kinda neat.

Lol We have 5 in the house. One first gen iPad (with water damage...), two second gen iPad, one third gen iPad and my dad just got an iPad mini, but seriously, the browser on the Wii U is just amazing. Best browser of any console. Hope Microsoft and Sony take notes.

Definitely doesn't make things up as he goes along.
What determines what game icons appear on the wii u home screen? They sometimes appear in different locations, but the games don't change. Even if I play new games, like why isnt Darksiders show up? It's what I'm playing

I'm right there with you.
I can say it's actually making playing games even more fun. I like using it in Zombi, such as snapping a shot of an undead survivor before you kill them, or just asking a question and getting a quick answer. I like how it's done in Mario though, which the notes left by friends about various things. Maybe it's fun for me because I skipped out on myspace and face book, and having a social network geared toward actively gaming(and netflix) is just good at the moment.

is netflix on the wiiu working? ive been getting an error all day...
Im having TONS of fun with it. It's similar in combat to 2, has co-op, and has a steep learning curve, but it fixed the issues with its original release.h Id say get it. Also, ayane sections rock.

No idea. I'll take a few pics for you if someone doesn't post any by the time I get home tomorrow.
Edit: Video
Last time I used it was about 06:30pm central time, and it was ok on my end.

Wait, what controller do they play co-op with? Can they play with Wiimote, or is it only online, or...?
I think he means online co-op..

I think the general consenus is avoid Batman. I'm pretty sure AC3, TTT2 and DS2 are fine.
