Day 1. The game looks really fun and I loved what I played in the testfires.



Bets:

1. If the Wii U sells closer to 10 million LTD by 1/3/2015 I win. If it sells closer to 9.5 million LTD by 1/3/2015 OfficerRaichu15 wins (winner gets 2 weeks of avatar control)--Lost.

At the moment I have no plans to buy it, though after all the DLC is out there might be something that interests me.

Reason I'm not currently buying it? Not a massive fan of team based FPS/TPS, don't play them on other systems either despite having a PC perfect for the genre.

Nope. Not even slightly enough content for the asking price.


Which is why we are getting free updates all through the summer.

 

Also, reviewers are saying it has a lot of content, even though it might not be enough for some gamers. = you

I'm actually not a fan of this genre either, but I can tell you I have had more fun with this than Mario Kart 8 and Smash Bros 4.

Yeah I'll certainly keep an eye on it. If it had 4 player split screen, I'd probably be far more inclined to get it. I only tend to play local multiplayer.

Yes, I ordered the game + squid Amiibo bundle

Why? Because it's amazingly fun and a fresh wind in a genre that had become boring

I really want it, and greatly enjoyed the tesfires. That price is just way too high though, especially considering more content will come later. It's almost like they're encouraging me to sit on it for a while until I can get a bigger experience. If I could get it for $40 right now I would do it in a heartbeat.


I've sen a lot of people say that, which is a shame since in other places its much cheaper. If it was the same price, more people would probably buy it.

Nintendo talked about flexible prices before, maybe they think Europe market need some push.

After my exams, yes, it looks like fun.
That and my friends need something to replace Halo now that we all went from an Xbox 360 to a Wii U.

Let me guess, you didn't play Test Demo? :)
