Forums - Nintendo - Wii U is upon us :)

 

The Wii U is upon us and I am so excited about this new console that it's palpable. Unfortunately, I'm most likely only getting the console either Monday or Tuesday as I ordered it online o_0 damn weekends. I think it's going to be a great system and the third party support seems great. 

I can't wait to boot up the system and see all the little Mii's running down the WaraWara Plaza! I hope to meet some of y'all and be friends ;)

Am I the only one that is psyched? I haven't been this excited since the Gamecube! (Hope we can buy some Gamecube titles down the line)

I am getting Wii U Deluxe (Nintendoland included), Call of Duty Black Ops, New Super Mario Bros U and Sonic All Stars (When Q1 kicks in: Monster Hunter and Pikmin 3 =D). What are you guys getting as well? 



Around the Network

I was only able to reserve the base edition (the premium set sold really fast, so I couldn't get one) since I only have money to buy games (currently)



it's going fun next year when Pikmin 3 comes out and I hope Zombie U is as good as people say otherwise i will probably not be getting anything until Pikmin 3 unless i change my mind and get NSMB U and Rayman depending on when that one comes out.



    R.I.P Mr Iwata :'(

I've still got 17 days to wait!

Can't wait though, got the 30th off work and will spend 3 days playing non-stop I hope!

Also can't wait for Pikmin 3 and Alien: Colonial Marines to release.

I've got ZombiU deluxe bundle, NSMBU, Black Ops 2 & Nintendoland.

Pikmin 3, Alien: Colonial Marines to follow Q1 2013.



I'm starting to see lots of Wii U ads on TV. They're good, informative ads too... I was worried that the advertising wouldn't fully show that the Wii U is actually a new console, but the ads fully state that its a new console and not just a Wii Add-on or something, which is good ;P

My body is ready for Sunday.

I'm getting the Deluxe bundle, NSMBU, and Scribblenauts Unlimited at launch, so Excited!  Starting tomorrow I'm pulling a 60 hour work week which ends at 9:30P.M Saturday. I've planned for this day way ahead of time and I'm taking a whole week off work starting Sunday. My brother and I are going to spend the whole week together playing Wii U.

I'm most eager to play NintendoLand.

Quick question, is there going to be an official thread where we can all trade each others network codes? It would be awesome if I could add all of you guys to my Wii U.



I'm an advocate for motion controls, Nintendo, and Kicking freaking Toad to the Moon!

I just made a thread saying there was not hype. SO I am happy to see that there actually is some out there!

Which thread is this?

And very very excited. Ordering the Deluxe online and planning to log my hours with Mario :)
I think that moment that I start using the Wii U for internet and Tvii will be when I go "awwwwww yeah"



That Ninja Gaiden Wii U review on IGN Killed my buzz for using the Wii U controller with the game. I dont think I am going to buy that game at all now, I'll just get the typical Nintendo stuff. They kinda recommended shelling out $50 extra for the 360 look a like controller so thats just a heads up for any fast paced games. They said the graphics was worse and had massive jaggies as well than the PS3/360, probably to save framerate. Still the best version though, so pick it up if you want.

 

P.S.

Enjoy the launch! I am getting mine after the first group of people.

Probably a few pages back on the Nintendo forums.

IGN at least gave it a decent review. There is hope!


It was, sucks it didnt give good news about the controller Nintendo made though.
