Socoder -> Off Topic -> Wii U.

I relented. Verdict: It's fecking ace

Shame about all the updating (put aside an hour for the machine itself and then 20+ minutes for NintendoLand - not put in Zombie U as there aren't enough hours in a day).

Already it's showing stuff that just isn't possible on other machines - Yoshi's fruit Cart thingy is simple, but great fun.

Looking forward to proper games now. Nintendo and third parites: Don't let this down.

BTW the controller isn't as big as it looks in screenies. It's bigger. Much bigger. It's fecking massive.

Haven't, yet. I've not really played much at all, all year. It's a bit odd, really. I used to say "too busy writing AGameAWeek", but this year has been different, to say the least. I haven't done either coding, or game playing.
I bought Pokemon white 2, the other week, and have played about 2 hours worth of it. Barely anything.
I also have Sonic Generations from pre-hospital, and have played about an hour or so of that, too.
Can't seem to get back into gaming.
...so.. With that in mind, I haven't ordered WiiU. If they can get a bucketload of games, ready and waiting, then sure.. Why not. But right now it seems to be dodgy ports, and NintendoLand!

I'm not happy to pay £300+ for one game, even if it IS as fantastic as everyone keeps saying it is.

Gunna skip the 'u' . A wii with a daft(er) controler doesn't appeal to me much. Perhaps I'm getting old.

We've got ZombiU for the Wii U now, which my Visual Basic teacher has told me is a fun game. I might be playing that in the coming days.

Played ours for the first time yesterday and its really good.

The controller is strange, but the gameplay with it is ace!
