#185071 Lego City: Undercover GameStop.com Preorders

Posted by bigpapa7272 on 21 March 2013 - 03:59 PM in Wii U Games and Software

GameStop dropped the ball on this one it's pretty bad when Walmart gets copies on street date before GameStop I got mine Tuesday and I love it.  Game stop lost a sale on this one!



#184095 Does anyone else think Lego city undercover is absolutely hilarious

Posted by bigpapa7272 on 19 March 2013 - 05:20 AM in Wii U Games and Software

I wish I could, but seeing as Gamestop likes to delay release dates...


That's why if I find a hard copy before GameStop gets in my preorder I'm saying screw GameStop and buying it at that retailer.  They ticked a nerve when it still said the 18th and they knew it was going to be late and they could not send me a courtesy email advising of he lateness

#137589 Slow Internet and Freezing Netflix

Posted by bigpapa7272 on 24 November 2012 - 03:19 PM in Wii U Hardware

Found a fix to my problem on another site, in case anyone else is experiencing the same as me. This also works if you cannot connect to WiFi at all. Netflix and other apps no longer froze the system after doing this:

Ok so far heres what works, entering in everything manually.


1. Go into connection types, Hit "Manual Configuration"

2. Input your SSID

3. Input the correct security type, this is key.

4. Put your password in properly

5. For ip address "Do not auto obtain".

6. open up cmd in your computer, type in ipconfig

7. Now input that ip address but add 10 to the last number so "192.168.0.1" will be entered as "192.168.0.11"

8. Enter the rest of your info inside such as subnet mask and default gateway exactly as you see it in your ipconfig.

9. Now hit next, hit configure now for your DNS. When asked about DNS hit "Dont auto obtain".

10. For the first server put in 8.8.8.8

11. For the second server put in 8.8.4.4

12. Hit Next, when asked about a proxy hit no proxy

13. Leave mtu as the default

14. it should work, if not check the ip and that it is the internet ip + 10. Good luck


thanks it connected to the net much faster!

#129887 No WiiU midnight at Gamestop?! WTF?!

Posted by bigpapa7272 on 15 November 2012 - 09:28 AM in Wii U Hardware

This is an absolute mess. My GameStop is telling me that Nintendo is forbidding any launch for the console before 9AM, what is going on? I really wish corporate would just issue out a statement about what will and won't happen.


It doesnt make sense since some best buy's are doing a midnight launch.  If GS puts out a statement blaming nintendo then Nintendo should issue a statement as well.



#129859 No WiiU midnight at Gamestop?! WTF?!

Posted by bigpapa7272 on 15 November 2012 - 08:58 AM in Wii U Hardware

Midnight launches are down to the MANAGER of each store. You were wasting your time going to Gamestop corporate. You should have gone to the manager of your local store, they have the power.


In America,  there really is no such thing as a manager at the local level in any business.  The "manager"  isnt really a manager,  he is a pawn in the corporate game who is micro managed from the corporate office about everything they do even if the "manager" produces positive results on the business.

Anyways dont get bent out of shape about no midnight launch,  be happy you have it preordered and you are getting one on sunday.  There are plenty of people who will be left out on sunday that would gladly take your preorder in a heartbeat.



#128911 GameStop will be having a Midnight Launch for the Wii U

Posted by bigpapa7272 on 13 November 2012 - 06:05 PM in Wii U Hardware

Mine said they got 15 preorders. So no reason to be around for a couple hours.

I think if stores had about 20 preorders and 20 consoles available first come first serve on launch day I think there would have been midnight launches



#128736 Easy way to tell if your gamestop.com order will ship

Posted by bigpapa7272 on 13 November 2012 - 01:58 PM in Wii U Hardware

Too bad I cant track the console I preordered to the doorstep of my local gamestop.
