    Or time to start educating him about console lifecycles, and about the Wii U...

    I hear that xbox is at the end of it's life!

    Nintendo - Ruining Polls Since The 80's

    I voted "Not getting one as it stands"....now I've a €100 deposit down on one :o

    I know I am going to bend like a little b!tch come late November. The idea of Super Mario HD is incredibly appealing for no reason.

    I'd be well on for a clan alright. I was a temp in the n-Europe blops1 wii clan for a while and that was great fun.

    If we wanted players can be given trial period say after we set up an initial community??

    One thing I really don't want to do is play blops 2 on my own :(

    I'd be up to joining a clan, if only to make my Miiverse screen that little bit more crowded. I'm getting the Zombi U premium pack at launch with Blops 2 Fifa and either Nintendo Land or a headset

    Any word if Lego City Undercover will be out before Xmas? Best I can see is 'launch window' which could be anything

    The "Launch Window" is any time between launch and March. I'd say it'll be there in the new year.

    Does anyone know if nintendo land will be playable with the pro controller or the classic controller rather than the wiimote and Nunchuck or are games like mario chase made so that the extra players have to use the wiimote?

    The fact that it's wrong (hint: Bayonetta 2) makes it even worse.

    As he just pulls the info from the Nintendo magazines (And doesn't seem to read anything here), it's just a list of confirmed titles that have been announced.
    NOT launch titles. Though the majority of them are 'Launch window' titles.

    That looks right except for Rayman Legends. It was delayed until Q1 2013.

    That list is actually from a few weeks backs. I didnt know it was delayed? Dont have much interest in it but at the same time it looks fun.


  • Registered Users, Registered Users 2 Posts: 2,693 ✭✭✭Deano7788


    Yeah it was announced about 2 weeks ago. Rayman Origins was brilliant so I'm really looking forward to it. Gives me something to look forward to when I finish with the launch games I suppose.

    Also be careful when using websites. They tend to forget differences between Europe and America when posting launch lists.
