Woooow the Wii U looks trully amazing in its glossy black body! Haven't got allthe time to test it thoroughly but my first impressions about the Gamepad and it's functions are good.

Never had any trouble with 360 games, and the Wii U games look fine.

I have a 58" TV and I ALWAYS, yes I repeat ALWAYS have to readjust my TV settings so that PS3 games can look decent on my TV. Whether the games is 1st or 3rd party doesn't matter, PS3 games just look like shit. But I think that's because of the screen size and PS3 game resolution which is normally 720p. Luckily I have a specialy setting for PS3 games on my TV.

Then that's obviously a problem on your end, because almost every single Wii U and 360 game runs at 720p too. I have never run into this problem

Nope, its a problem with PS3. Cause 360 and Wii U games look fine and are ready to run out if the box on larger screen TVs. No settings required like for PS3 games - superiour console my arsse!

The only difference I can think of is that all 360 games support 1080p upscaling and quite a few PS3 games don't.

-You're often not forced to use the new pad. Just fire up your Pro Controller and your Black Ops 2 experience is the same as any other console.

-You don't have to guess if a username sounds feminine. Just look at their Mii. Now, you know if you're flirting with a girl!

So in order to play a game like in other consoles you need to spend more money? ¬_¬

A "dude" can still create a femenine Mii.......like Caroline Petit from Gamespot TROLOLOLOLOL!!! XD



*Sits around all alone playing with his Wii.

*Wife and kid wake up. Must quickly put his Wii away.

*With little effort he gets his child occupied with TV.

*Knowing he has infinished business and an opportunity with the lady of the house, he plays video games.


Come on dude! You totally screwed up the ending to this story!



iPhone = Great gaming device. Don't agree? Who cares, because you're wrong.

Currently playing:

Final Fantasy VI (iOS), Final Fantasy: Record Keeper (iOS) & Dragon Quest V (iOS)     

    

Got a retro room? Post it here!

Obviously right now people are hyped with their new console. They are like a kid with a new toy, and I cant blame them because I will be like that when the PS4 arrives.

So I think that after a few months the users will begin to lower the hype and get more "realistic". Even though I guess it is nice to be able to more things, people in the end will just forget about the gimmick, and just enjoy games.

Years from now, people wont even talk about this anymore.

Sorry if this is an intrusive question, but why wouldn't you just let your son use Netflix on the computer or perhaps a laptop or tablet which all most likely have better screen quality than the Wii U pad?


I find that the quality of the screen is very good. Most things look better on the pad then they do on my TV (55"). Trine 2 looks absolutely stunning on the pad. Prettiest game I've ever seen.

Honestly, I don't have a TV anymore lol, Wii U like console (or a handheld) is what I'll be getting.

Wii U owners , a question:

Do the adapters accept AC current from 110v to 240v or only 110v only? I am tempted to get one from the US.



You just have to be careful that the game is playable only on the pad, some aren't and require both the pad and the TV like zombie U.
