They region locked the pads to stop the decline-aids to spread from UK to other regions.

Nintendo is being generous here they should have country locked it.

Another episode of "Iwata is actually a bit of a cunt(Tm)" :

Iwata : Guys, did you get everything ready for launch?!
Plebs : Yes master, we have region locked the fuck out of everything, we've let publishers know that we will not tolerate English in Japanese games so ZombiU has NO ENGLISH at all, and whilst COD has multilanguage games on X360/PS3, WiiU -only- has a japanese dub. And we have implemented region lock on just about everything we could.
Iwata : Thank FUCK - i was worried something might have slipped through
Plebs : Sir , we didn't quite get the upgrade thing working and the estore in Japan is a disgrace
Iwata : lol - like i give a fuck lol. The important stuff that pisses in gamers gas tank is sorted - the rest is just servicing these cunts. Let them eat fucking cake. Wankers.

can't implement a unified account system, can't implement a consistent marketplace shared by all their consoles, but good thing those game pads are region locked.

Olivia Wilde Homo · « **Reply #5645 on:** December 25, 2012, 08:56:54 PM »

I suspect they region locked it because they want to make it as difficult as possible to get a second gamepad or have the possibility of playing with a second gamepad entertained until Nintendo is good and ready. They want to push this asynchronous gameplay bullshit to hide the fact that two gamepads would likely drag performances down to sub Wii levels.

The next revelation will be that Nintendo didn't actually use metal and plastic to make the console, but crushed garbage.

ok I guess I'll look like a distinguished mentally-challenged fellow now, but I ordered a wii u online since the basic pack was on sale here in sweden and was 80 dollars cheaper until the 31st of december. A too good of a deal to pass up on even if the system looks meh at this point.

There's nothing distinguished mentally-challenged about owning a Wii U. Plenty of respectable people own one. I own one!

And I know that that's an invitation to make a wisecrack about me, but I implore you not to. My ego is very fragile and I can't take it. Let me consider myself respectable, and we'll all just go about our day.

I'm actually thinking I'll get ZombiU soon, seems like a very interesting game even if it does get stale halfway in. Seems like a decent horror-ish title.

Olivia Wilde Homo · « **Reply #5665 on:** December 27, 2012, 08:32:05 PM »

I kind of regret my Wii U purchase.

Yeah, you're playing the latest unambitious (and it is painfully unambitious) NSMB title but the main beef I have with it is that it doesn't do the few things it does well. I still have shitloads of connection errors and found a way around that basically just involves opening and closing the program I want to use until it works. It took me a good seven open-close-reopen attempts until I could get Netflix working. Good jon.

headwalk · « **Reply #5666 on:** December 27, 2012, 11:48:02 PM »

when i see people straining to justify buying a wii u based on a handful of mediocre $60 titles, i want to take that $60 and send them an aid package of a dozen superior games from the steam sale.

i cannot imagine how barren and blinkered your gaming horizon must be for things like zombiu to even appear on your radar at that price.

Tasty · « **Reply #5673 on:** December 28, 2012, 03:56:47 AM »

I just think from the sound of it ZombiU does some interesting things you don't normally get in a "playing it safe AAA HD" game. Kinda like Demon's Soul. Building up a char the whole game, only to lose it and have to kill the zombie of your last char to get it back or lose it permanently is some brutal stuff.

Naturally though the game can't just coast on that, it needs interesting environments and scenarios, and the controls and gunplay/cricketplay has to "feel" good. It sounds like those parts are whats rougher but it's a launch game.

Naturally though people will just chock me up being interested in it to ntardism even though I was right there in the GAF review thread raking the hopefuls over the coals with the best of them.

And I never said I'd buy it at $60. In fact, it seems unlikely now that Batman's on the eShop and I have a couple 3DS/Wii games still to go through. I should be set until MH in March and after I'm done with that ZU should be a more appropriate price, hopefully.

DCharlieJP · « **Reply #5674 on:** December 28, 2012, 05:48:30 AM »

Andrex is such a lameo fan - how could you not buy an exclusive game at launch , regardless of $60.

Sounds like pussy talk

Also - spoiler- MH port is shitty - the next person who says "it's a constant 60fps" gets a cock in the gob. Try "it's sometimes around 30 fps and the rest of the time it's having an eppy trying to decide what the fuck it's doing"

It's a 3DS up port - and the Wii U goes FUCKING MENTAL trying to handle it.

Pro tip - fuck the Wii U version right off - get the 3DS version. It's way more impressive per platform

Tasty · « **Reply #5675 on:** December 28, 2012, 05:50:51 AM »

Does it have online? No.

I can live with drops if the drops all stay about 30fps. And 1080p even with 3DS graphics is slightly more than a nice to have.

Getting both. Hoping Capcom doesn't bend me over a dung bomb and price both versions at full price separately.

DCharlieJP · « **Reply #5676 on:** December 28, 2012, 06:14:29 AM »

I guess i keep forgetting that people need to play online outside of Japan so that's a good point.

And Capcom - if they have any sense - will offer a download token with the Wii U version...

... but they won't because CAPCOM/NINTENDO!

The Mustachioed Man had this knack for putting new games in our collection without me and my brothers realizing. Sometimes I'd wake up and look through either my Genesis or Snes games(I was that kid) I'll find the new Sonic, Castlevania, Mario or whatever there. And just to make it interesting sometimes he'd leave the games somewhere he knows i'll look.

Good memories.

38fps average, 32fps min, 47fps max. Evidently it's the same as the 3DS version.

archnemesis · « **Reply #5679 on:** December 28, 2012, 11:51:23 AM »

Why even bother making a 60 FPS version if 38 is the average? They should've capped it at 30 instead.

It might be due to being a direct 3DS port. It also has lower geometry than the Wii original.

I've seen less than 10 Wii U commercials all year - far less frequent than the Layton 3DS / "get a free game with a 3DS XL" commercials. There has to be a reason for that.

Getting games to run perfectly on an emulator usually requires some work. I got a Wii U primarily for playing Wii games and it has been working great so far.

The new rebranded wiimotes are maybe 10% more expensive around here, so I decided to pick up a regular black wiimote+ and a nunchuk instead.
