So yesterday was my birthday, and my fiance' totally suprised me with a Wii U Deluxe and a copy of ZombiU! Pretty awesome of her =)

Got all my Wii files transferred over with a pretty intricate download progress animation of Pikmin carrying files, took a while to download updates etc. Played some Nintendoland with her, which she soon regretted, as I beat her at most of the games (I'm a "learn by beating the master" type trainer ;) )

Played zombiU, didn't like the absolutel lack of a tutorial had to erase the game a few times to just get past the first sequence. After a while of playing it,  I got used to the controls. Bieng a PC+Wii gamer, I am NOT a fan of aiming with a thumbstick. I would have rather had the ability to move the game pad to aim. I feel like thumbpad for aiming is a regressive step in gaming. That said, the game is quite fun after you get the hang of the interfaces. The graphics are pretty impressive for a console game, I'd say equal or better to Lefot for Dead 2 on max settings, which is an accolade frome me.

Blakc Ops 2 might be on the near future list. Any other good reccomendations for games out there in the US shops?

awesome! cant wait to pick mine up sometime.

hope you enjoy it.

U HAVE TO GET MH3U!!!

play online!!! Multiplayer will be nice

Hahaha you're a noob with double analogue sticks ;)

I'm so sorry :P

Seriously though, have fun! I enjoyed ZombiU myself, though it definitely had a few quirks. This wait for Pikmin 3 however is killing me. If you like NSMB games, I'd suggest getting NSMBU. I enjoyed it the most out of the other games in the NSMB series honestly.

Lego City comes out tomorrow I believe

add me my id is: POE_001
You should buy lego city and mario u

thanks for the suggestions, I got to set up my game id, havent played much with the online features yet. =)

Joe - nah, I rocked it hard on the gamecube, but that was 2 gens ago. Thumbsticks on controllers are like ashtrays on airplanes - obsolete and useless for the modern day. =)

Thumb sticks aren't obsolete, they are the ONLY decent way to control movement in a video game. WASD just doesn't cut it.

You are lucky that you got it as MH3U is coming out lol.
