Forums - Nintendo - Nintendo Direct undersold their BIG release today Wii STREET U

I downloaded it immoderately after the Nintendo Direct. It's very cool, it's awesome to so easily just pull up places around the world where you have lived or have friends or family. It's also great that I couldn't get any pictures up from Iceland.

My only complaint is that you can't go through Amsterdam's red light district...



Have a nice day...

I will try it out later this evening

By the time I get a Wii U this probably won't be free anymore, and this doesn't look like something I would pay for. It does look cool though.

@leedlelee: I'm guessing they will let you do that after midnight. XD

Should combine it with zombie gameplay. Like, you go to an address and it superimposes zombies coming at you from down the street. You could aim at the zombie with a cursor and shoot throw mushrooms until it fell over.

I played around with it today... The thing I didn't like is when I typed in my address (thinking it would take me to my street so I could check out my neighborhood), it took me to the center of downtown instead.

Other than that, it was cool to look around at other big cities around the world. I will probably use it more before I travel somewhere.


It worked when I put in my address, all the address I put in worked, it's got my old car on which I've not had for ages


Thanks, I tried it again and it worked :) ... maybe i just fat fingered it and it didn't recognize it.

I'll take a look at it, but isn't it essentially just Google Maps?

It is. It's just neat to be able to turn around and view the environment as if you were really standing there. I've never messed with anything like this on a tablet before, so this feels much cooler than Google Maps on a computer.


i say this because i care, but any android or ios device with gyro can do this in streetview by pressing the free view button.

Yeah, I figured as much.  I've just never done it before personally.

the moment this guy tries it, there is a swastika symbol.

Nintenazi ?

but It seems its just StreetView, nothing special about it, Nintendo would truely be nazis if they're planning on selling it.
