I am now a shamed WiiU owner.

Hahahahaha.

[Tasty]

hopefully he broke the dc trend and didn't buy *every* game.

i bet he'll be balls-deep in monster hunter later tonight.  or sleeping.  probably sleeping.

Can't it be both?

[maxy]

He can troll it better  now.

DC trolling = dropping truth bombs

I can't help but be reminded of the time I was walking into a 7-11 that happened to have two hobos out front having a conversation where one said to the other: "Hey man, you keep sucking dick and people are gonna start thinking you're gay."

I feel it's a rather apt metaphor to describe DC's purchasing habits.

[Brehvolution]

It's not your fault, XFE. If the system was sold out, you wouldn't have that problem.

[tiesto]

Yeah, the load times in the OS suck (I haven't d/led the update yet due to not having internet at my place anymore), and the battery life is pitiful. Still enjoying Mario and Tekken though and I'm sure it'll all be worth it once we (hopefully, fuck you Reggie) get the Monolith game.

to be fair, who bought Nintendo Land in anticipation of playing online 

[Tasty]

Lack of online in Mario cuts much deeper.

The game would have way more hype if it was online and NSMB2 didn't come out.

Most of Early 2013’s Biggest Games Seem to Be Skipping Wii U

Over the last couple of days, we've been checking in on the Wii U status of several major multiplatform games, all of which are slated for the first half of 2013. Nintendo has promised that the Wii U will have a broader array of games than the Wii did and won't neglect the hardcore gamer crowd. But very few of the top multiplatform games for Xbox 360 and PlayStation 3 are slated for Wii U.

Aliens: Colonial Marines
Release Date: February 12 (PC, PS3, Xbox 360)
Coming to Wii U? "Yes, ACM is coming to Wii U," a rep from Sega confirmed. We have not announced a specific date yet, just that it launches before the end of Nintendo's launch window (aka March 31, 2013)."

Army of Two: The Devil's Cartel
Release Date: March 26, 2013 (PS3, Xbox 360)
Coming to Wii U? "No plans," according to a rep for EA.

BioShock Infinite
Release Date: March 26, 2013 (PC, PS3, Xbox 360)
Coming to Wii U? The game's creative director just told Destructoid that "nothing is brewing right now," so highly unlikely.

Castlevania Lords of Shadow 2
Release Date: 2013 (Not sure if early or late, to be honest) (PC, PS3, Xbox 360)
Coming to Wii U? "We can't confirm any info on the Wii U at this time," says a rep for Konami. (Whatever that means.)

Crysis 3
Release Date: February 13, 2013 (PC, PS3, Xbox 360)
Coming to Wii U? "No plans," according to a rep for EA.

Dead Island Riptide
Release Date: April 23, 2013 (PC, PS3, Xbox 360)
Coming to Wii U? "No plans," according to a rep for Deep Silver.

Dead Space 3
Release Date: February 5, 2013 (PC, PS3, Xbox 360)
Coming to Wii U? "No plans," according to a rep for EA.

DmC
Release Date: January 15, 2013 (PC, PS3, Xbox 360)
Coming to Wii U? All we could get was a rep for Capcom reiterating that the game is "confirmed" for the above platforms.

Fuse
Release Date: March 2013 (PS3, Xbox 360)
Coming to Wii U? "No plans," according to a rep for EA.

Grand Theft Auto V
Release Date: Spring 2013 (PS3, Xbox 360)
Coming to Wii U? Nothing announced. Seems unlikely, but here's a glimmer of hope, if you're the unusually optimistic sort.

Injustice: Gods Among Us
Release Date: April 2013 (Xbox 360, PS3)
Coming to Wii U? Yes!

Metal Gear Rising: Revengeance
Release Date: February 19, 2013 (PS3, Xbox 360)
Coming to Wii U? We asked the game's producer, Yuji Korekado, at an event in Los Angeles last week. Here's the transcript:

Kotaku: Do you have plans to bring Revengeance to Wii U?
Korekado: No.
Kotaku: Why not?
Korekado: We really developed the game based on these two consoles [PS3, 360] and the Wii U, we think, is unique in a way that the controller is innovative and the entire console's pretty much not hand-in-hand with the consoles that we're making it for now. So if we were going to make it for the Wii U we'd have to start from zero again and really design something for that console, so we could say 100% that it was a good game for this console.
Kotaku: Could Wii U run the Revengeance engine?
Korekado: I haven't really tried it, so I'm not quite sure.

Metro Last Light
Release Date: March 2013 (PC, PS3, Xbox 360)
Coming to Wii U? Not bloody likely.

Remember Me
Release Date: May 2013 (PC, PS3, Xbox 360)
Coming to Wii U? In August, Capcom's U.S. senior VP Christian Svensson said the idea of bringing it to the Wii U was "explored" but didn't synch up well with the developers' schedules.

South Park: The Stick of Truth
Release Date: Early 2013 (PC, PS3, Xbox 360)
Coming to Wii U? "THQ hasn't announced plans for a Wii U version of the game and is focusing attention on the current versions," a THQ rep told us.

Splinter Cell: Blacklist
Release Date: Spring 2013 (PC, PS3, Xbox 360)
Coming to Wii U? "The decision to bring a game to the Wii U will be made on a case-by-case basis," a Ubisoft rep told us. "We don't have any details to share at the moment."

Tomb Raider
Release Date: March 5, 2013 (PC, PS3, Xbox 360)
Coming to Wii U? A Square Enix rep says: "the announced platforms for Tomb Raider = X360, PS3, PC. No Wii U."

could'nt hold out huh and you have no "defense" like Drinky either

[Steve Youngblood]

The game would have way more hype if it was online and NSMB2 didn't come out.

But don't you recall Andrex that Nintendo apologists all agreed that some undefined quality of the New Super Mario games makes it impossible for them to work online. It can't be done.

Now, I know you're tempted to find a list of games from other developers that are comparable that all have perfectly competent online modes, but just rest assured that you're wrong. The magic of multiplayer New Super Mario Bros. just can't be transferred over the interwebs without an unacceptable loss of whimsy.

>Army of Two

Uh, lol? The most anticipated game this side of Kane and Lynch 3!

>BioShock

They haven't even said anything in over 1.5 years since very publicly announcing he Vita version/port/spinoff. Not surprised.

>Castlevania

Vague answer gives me some hope. Still want to play the first.

>Injustice

Looks pretty awesome. Should really just be Batman: The Fightan Gaem

>Revengeance

Lol already the "the controller is so unique and special we CAN'T just port it over" BS we heard a million times with the Wii. Just have the balls to say why you're not really doing it.

>Splinter Cell

Huh I didn't even know a new one was announced.

But don't you recall Andrex that Nintendo apologists all agreed that some undefined quality of the New Super Mario games makes it impossible for them to work online. It can't be done.

The excuse back then, which I never really bought, was that the Wii didn't have enough CPU to handle all four characters plus internet connectivity/lag-workarounds. Considering the Wii U's poor CPU, this still might be the case but it's much harder to swallow considering the system is being pushed as "next gen." AFAIK there's no official reason why NSMBU doesn't have online.

[Cerveza mas fina]

Mario doesnt have onlinw either? Im not even suprised anymore.

I was more referring to the popular argument some were making that seemed to insist that lag compensation techniques employed in other genres just won't work for something as fast paced as a Mario platformer.

That was a popular argument? Those people should have been punched in the face.

Yes. Similarly, several people argued that Pikmin just won't work online when it was announced that it wouldn't have online connectivity either.

[Steve Youngblood]

For instance, here's a quote from Kaijima made today:

As well, unlike say, a four player 2D Mario game, the games in Nintendoland COULD be engineered to work with online as well as local play. But I think regardless of the team's focus and intent, that would be a very large, complex project for something that has so many rather different multiplayer experiences in one package.

He seems to believe that it just wouldn't work at all.

[Tasty]

I'm reminded of a Zero Punctuation quote.

"Maybe if anyone defends this on a forum, they automatically get added to the government depopulation list because their minds are clearly deviant and must be purged."

you'd have to code a different packet system for each genre, the networking overhead would just be insane. please understand

It doesn't really matter what those games are,it's bloody obvious that third party is avoiding WiiU like a plague.I've always wondered what would happen to Wii if it didn't have motion controls,I guess we will find out now.

Nintendo has explained why it decided not to include online multiplayer in Wii U launch title Nintendo Land.

Developers wanted to encourage players to interact in the real world, with the virtual theme park's attractions specifically designed for players sitting next to each other.

"Nintendo Land's multiplayer attractions work because of the communication shared between the people playing them," Nintendo Land producer Katsuya Eguchi told Famitsu (via Polygon). "They were set up from the start to be something people in the same room could enjoy."

Nintendo: We have long software droughts to encourage children to go outside.
Nintendo: We make sure our systems don't have a wide variety of third party games to save you money.
Nintendo: We have under-powered systems and ugly games to show humanity that superficial looks are not what's important.
Nintendo: We reuse assets and music in New Super Mario Brothers to encourage recycling.
Nintendo: We don't use voice acting in an effort to promote literacy.
Nintendo: We do indefensible shit all the time just to improve the debating skills of our fans.
Nintendo: We say stupid shit to make malek can stop reading labour law cases.

Sorry gents - i had the Son back after my illness , so i was in bed asleep by 8pm

Wii U - updates were all done and dusted in 20 minutes, not sure what the fuss was about!

Two hard locks so far, both in Youtube (lol)

Only played NintendoLand with son - he loves it , i thought it was okay.

So far - it's better than i gave it credit for i guess. Miiverse is legitimately quite nice, but no BLOW ME AWAY experiences as of yet.

I guess i'll try Monster Hunter tonight.

My Wii U has yet to hard lock at all and I've used a lot of the features quite a bit.  Then again I heard Nintendoland is the main culprit of locking and it will never go into my Wii U ever so ymmv.
