Downloading ZombiU (demo) and The Cave (demo) now. The GF And I just got done with a 2 hour session of NSMBU.
Off people that have actually played it?
The official thread was pretty small for a major release like that, and anytime we talk about sales people write it off as a given that it wouldn't be able to push hardware, something that no one here would've dared say before it was released.
I was REALLY hoping for a price cut for Darksiders II, but it doesn't look like that's gonna happen. Oh well, time to man up and get it.
You could get it for like $10 during Steam sales.

I just tried it and I get 106-0502. I usually get other errors too though. Support.Nintendo doesn't seem to recognize them.
I also tried changing the channel in my router, doesn't seem to do a thing :c
Maybe he doesn't play games on PC, and enjoys playing games on his Wii U...just a guess considering he's posting in a Wii U satisfaction thread...
Did you try what I mentioned in the last post? If that doesn't work I would recommend you to check this thread.
They're obviously not a gamer. I play my Wii U every day.Top gaming post on Reddit right now:

Are you counting drawing pictures on Miiverse as "playing"?
You know, I can't hate the system. I know that eventually, Nintendo will get it's act together and convince some of the third party devs to release games for the system. Worse case scenario? We get some amazing 1st party stuff that takes a while to get.
The thing that I'm having trouble reconciling is that this is the buggiest system I've ever owned. EVER.
I've been through two 360's, and i get that the RROD was a big deal. Never had a problem with any PS3. Had a PS1 that skipped from wear and tear.
I've had an incredible amount of system hard freezes. Every day I turn on the system, SOMETHING will hard freeze forcing me to unplug the power cable. It's actually incredibly annoying.
Gave up on movie watching on the system.
I bought an ethernet adapter and hardwire the nintendo whenever I want to download games now.
Through terribly grueling trial and error, I've learned that, even hard-wired, depending on if the Nintendo is near a power supply or if it's plugged into a power strip with too many devices, you'll get hiccups that can GREATLY increase your download time.
Oh, and also, disconnect the USB hard drive, too. That can affect system freezing! Had to learn that the hard way, even though I bought one of the recommended Seagate 1TB Expansion HD directly from Nintendo's website. Yes, it has it's own power.
So even through all that, try transferring data! For no good reason, the wii u will freeze during data transfer! I tried transferring Darksiders II to my brand new drive and after checking back 3 hours later, I realized that it froze mid process. Had to unplug and start over.
It's to the point where I feel lucky to get a game in without freezing. Totally regret buying day one purchase, even though I love the system.
I played The Cave demo, and I think I would have preferred buying The Cave over Trine 2. Trine 2 is absolutely beautiful, but I'm just not a fan of the physics-based gameplay. I don't really like the ragdoll physics, either. I prefer the puzzles of The Cave (from what I've played of it). However, I'm holding off on purchasing it because I felt like Trine 2 was a bit of a waste. I'd at least want to beat Trine 2 first. I rarely buy more than one game in a short time frame, and I've never really had a backlog. I don't think I want to start now.

That's really abnormal. I've only had two locks ever, 1 in ZombiU and 1 in I think COD. I have my U plugged into a power strip that also has my PS3, gamepad charger, two laptops, air purifier and another fully loaded 8 plug power strip plugged in, and I'm not having the issues you're having. I do have my system upright rather than flat, not sure if that makes a difference. But I'd recommend seeing if you can send it in and get a new system.

Just received NSMB:U in the mail today
think my sonic racing should be delivered tomorrow
anyone own a retail disc version of a game, play it and later downloaded a digital version of the same game just to not use the disc anymore?
does your save file just carry over? I really need to know this
anyone help?
I need to know... how this works if you have both Digital and Retail copy on a Wii U what happens to the save file?
Well, considering that the save data is saved on the system and not in the game itself, it would require more work for the devs to make it NOT work... just saying...anyone help?

I played it for ample time. I tried to like it, I really did. I thought I would enjoy the combat and upgrades, but it just doesn't resonate with me. I'm not even sure if I was solving those puzzles the way the developers intended; I felt like I was just trying crazy stuff with the ragdoll physics until something worked.Did you play Trine 2 for long? I felt it was weird at first and wasn't jiving with the physics, but after a while I really started to enjoy it.

I want to try The Cave, but I honestly hate knowing that I wasted money on something that I didn't see to completion. As you can probably tell, I'm rather stingy with my money. I think I might force myself to finish Trine 2 before I let myself buy another eShop game.
I just jumped in, with the ZombiU bundle :-D
I'm using the Wii U for streaming content needs (netflix, amazon) and of course gaming (with the wife bonus).
Is it just me or ZombieU a little choppy in the beginning? or is it my Wii U?
Any game recommendations? I have ZombiU and nintendoland.

Well, I've just bought Balloon fight for 0.30 and I didn't know the game was that fun. I know it's a NES game and not a WiiU one, but I'm enjoying it

I am super satisfied with the internet broser. I use it every night and its mostly replaced my ipad. But, unfortunately Nintendo doesn't make money off the browser.
I'm sitting here next to my wife watching her play Batman and out of nowhere she says I love the Wii U... I was like oh ya let me share with gaf.....lol

I think I'm getting a Wii U for my birfday next week. Keeping my fingers crossed that my non gaming wife has picked up on the clues, which has consisted of me saying how I would really like a Wii U for my birfday.
Don't own a Wii U yet, but reporting in to say I was freakin' shocked by how good I thought NSMBU's graphics were. Finally played it at Gamestop, and I was so surprised. I've seen gameplay videos of course, but it's so much better in person. Made me want to pick one up right away, haha. Don't have the cash, though, so I'm waiting for this fall..hoping for a price drop/deals and Mario U, Mario Kart, and/or Smash Bros.
oh you mean that add-on for the wii? I believe it's out of stock
