I have a Wii U - General Discussion.

Mr E

Well no, not really. Maybe in the new year. :cool:

Since the other thread is pre-launch hype, rumours, speculation, buying info, etc., it's probably a good idea to start a new thread for talking about the console itself, now that some of you lucky sods have one sitting under your TV.

At least you didn't post that in the Nintendo bargains thread because that stinks. That's not a great deal at all. Are you in major panic to buy the Wii U that you'll take any offer?

how is that not a decent price? 12 month warrantee, 3 AAA games.. for 287...

sligeach

I'm sorry. Yes, that's not bad, if you were to buy this elsewhere, you might save €20-30. But then it would be hard to find all 3 together with a warranty. You may as well go for it. Nit picking but I wouldn't say NSMBU is AAA.

I would. It's very underrated imo. It's probably the best in the series.

Yup a majorly underrated game. Fantastic fun. I spent close to 20hours with it.

Just to help you out again if it's not too late. You've agreed to buy Rayman Legends for €20 on Adverts. It's €16.98 in Gamestop. I know because I bought it. You need to have a good look around, there's tonnes of bargains out there to be had. I was in the shops on Friday and barring most 1st party games all other games can be bought for €20 or less. Even newer titles like AC 4: Black Flag and Batman: Arkham Origins are €20, not in Gamestop mind you. I bought 3 games and probably should have bought 5. There's so many games on Adverts that are overpriced.

It's on Amazon for £12.85 (€16.11) so you could add it to the Special Edition MK8 if you wanted - http://www.amazon.co.uk/Rayman-Legends-Nintendo-Wii-U/dp/B00844QP1C/ (@ DARK-KNIGHT)

I have automatic updates switched on so it was installed on the Wii U without me even knowing. I would prefer a better game but it's free so, whatever.

It was a nice surprise to see it automatically downloaded. If they could do this with some other virtual console games that would be very cool.

You should create one when you set up your Wii U.

Speaking of the Nintendo ID and stuff like that.
I registered for a Nintendo ID, and a Club Nintendo ID. I also registered on p.nintendo.com with my premium console.
I got the premium 32GB with NSMBU (+Luigi), Mario 3D Land, Mario Kart 8 and then Wind Waker with that. On p.nintendo.com I have 504 points. They are all from Zelda Wind Waker. However, I scratched the codes off all the games and registered them. Should I not be getting more points for that? Also, I had no scratch card for the console. Can I register that somewhere to get more points?

Cheers.

Club Nintendo is separate from the premium account. When you register codes you get stars for Club Nintendo. You only get premium points for digital purchases.

Also for the console, once you link your NNID to the club nintendo account you automatically get the stars. There's no code.

The points on p.nintendo.com are only for games you buy (or use a code) on the eshop. The codes on the scratch card give you points on your club nintendo account and if you save up enough you can get something from the stars catalogue there. If you linked your console to your club nintendo account you should get stars on that (after you do the survey) but won't get anything on p.nintendo.

Stranely this didn't happen automatically for me. As in I had to log into the Club Nintendo website, go to Games & System and click on 'Claim Stars for...' beside the console. Seems to be the same for e-shop purchases.

Pain in the neck having to do that stupid survey everytime aswell.

What? This is Superman. What? Seriously! What? We've obviously got a case of newbieitis. I never got it from the videos and playing it for the first while I hadn't a clue and I thought what is all the fuss about. It's completely different from anything you've ever played. Once you give it time and grasp it, it's nothing short of amazing.

I tell you what, tomorrow if I am free I'll go online and I'll explain it better and show you to the basics.

CEX are good at times for some games because €20 is a bargain for this. You wouldn't find better elsewhere.

Someone said above that they got the last one in CEX, but it seems to be available online delivered for €25.
