Current Consoles: Gaming PC, Wii U, 3DS

Playing W101 at the moment and it's awesome. Beating the shit out of giant robots with my giant sword is alpha as fuck.

If this is so fun and Pikmin is suppose to be better then I can't wait to play that.

Glad you're liking them, they're awesome games :) I haven't visited Pikmin 3 recently, but they recently updated Pikmin 3 to allow you to use the gamepad touchscreen via the stylus, which wasn't implemented before. When I played though I found the most intutive way to play was with the Wiimote.

Really? I figured that would have been annoying.

I actually didnt find the update too long. it was ok.

It takes hours. Plural. That's the antithesis of why folks buy a console.


Took about 40 minutes for me. It was at launch though...

December 29th 2013  don't recall it being multiple hours. Maybe about the same as yours. Downloading WWHD took way longer, and the fact that my video apps needed separate updates after I started up was a little annoying and cost me another ~15 minutes.

Transfering Wii data some days later took a while though.

Well, it's because the way you recall your pickmin is essentially having a somewhat small virtual circle that you move around with either the right analog stick on a controller or a pointing at the screen with the Wiimote to wrangle them back to you, and I just found pointing at the screen was easier than trying to use an analog stick. I should clarify I was using a Wiimote with a nunchuk.

Great! Zombie u is a like or hate it game.


Yeah. Second this. If you don't like survival horror then Zombi U will do nothing for you. If you do like it though, Zombi U has some of the most intense moments in the genre. Probably the most "scary" game in the genre since early in RE4.

Yeah, the update time is pretty terrible.

Did you get Mario Kart 8 yet? I'd say that's a must buy for the system.

 

I'll definitely get it after i'm done with W101 and Zombi U


I beat ZombiU on Survival Mode........yes, I am proud of that fact:)

That insane congrats, thats a real gaming achievement. I got close, but i got sucker punched when retrieving the panacea :(

Great effort. I made it to the nursery level and got mobbed in the field.... Easily the most terror I've felt in a game before....
