Wow, Rayman Legends is in there. Can Nintendo get even more submissive?


Behave Rol, I want ZombiU2: The Joshua tree


I'd rather have Achtung Baby.


That is the DLC, you gotta wait for the Game of the year edition, ZombieU2 POP and ZombieU2 Vertigo also come in de disc. =D 



My grammar errors are justified by the fact that I am a brazilian living in Brazil. I am also very stupid.

This won't do much. Most people aren't so stupid that they don't know the Wii U is a different console.

Not stupid, just that they don't care enough to find out and Nintendo's messaging hasn't really compelled them to do so.

I haven't seen this one on TV yet, while i've seen a lot of their other "upgrade" commercial

This proves that Nintendo biggest mistake was to name the console Wii U. Parents really think the Wii U is the same thing and will not waste money on something that is not new in their eyes. If it had a whole different name I'm sure it would have been a solid system and not struggling like it has until now.



I remember the old "This is not Nintendo DS, this is Nintendo 3DS" adverts we had.

They helped out quite a bit, lets see if this fixes some of the confusion.Honestly Im surprised someone was stupid enough to actually name the console Wii U instead of Wii 2 or Super Wii or whatever. Something to make it look superior. Something to clearly show that its a totally different platform.

Poor advertising. Poor use of the defining controller. Poor effort. This, while not brilliant, is a step in the right direction.

How's that submissive?

Ubisoft took a piss on the Wii U by delaying the game, now Nintendo advertises it for them. That basically makes Nintendo Ubisoft's bitch. Absolutely disgraceful.

Ohohoho, if only you knew what I would've done to Ubisoft and Nintendo if the game was released as originally planned....

Actually, nevermind, I still did it anyway for having it released 2 weeks before GTA V.

Next time some Nintendrone asks me why I favor Playstation over Nintendo, I'll just show them this then ANY PS commercial. I'm sure he'll get the picture.



In Mexico most retailers don't know the difference between a Wii U or a Wii. If you ask for a Wii U, most likely they will offer you a Wii so you better know the difference (and in online shops usually there is no Wii U category to be found, they put all the Wii U's on the Wii category)

So yeah, I would assume there is plenty of people confused around the world.

Maybe, but given their level of third party support right now, it makes sense to do. 



best Wii U add yet- finally something that clearly separates it from the Wii -

Also glad they included Rayman- great game that deserves to sell - Wii U needs all the 3rd party support it can get- if including Rayman keeps Ubisoft around a little longer it will help - W out Ubisoft or 3rd party situation is going to be close to zero next year (not including shovel ware)
