I actually have it on official word from Nintendo that they are actually working on a new Zelda game, as I talked to Nintendo of Canada's Matt Ryan a few weeks ago:

#135354 More in-depth Wii U teardown.

It will also certainly help those who need to repair themselves and have the confidence to do it themselves.
#136681 Microsoft Looking to Release 2 Versions of the NextBox
Posted by Eggplante! on 23 November 2012 - 05:42 AM in General Gaming
A $149 next-gen Xbox for your living room that replaces your set-top box, plays Blu-Rays, has Netflix, Hulu, and YouTube, as well as plays some XBL Arcade games? It does make sense. Don't forget, Blu-Ray players are $100 standalone, so for another $50, you get games and all the aforementioned? Might be good!

#130210 Games on the Wii U
Posted by Eggplante! on 15 November 2012 - 02:40 PM in Wii U Games and Software
ZombiU was tons of fun when we previewed it at E3 2012 this year, and Pikmin 3 was another take on Pikmin. Always fun, but still just Pikmin. Can't say until we review it though!

#161979 Disc vs Download
Posted by Eggplante! on 22 January 2013 - 07:57 PM in Wii U Games and Software
It probably is illegal & I normally wouldn't have done it, but when I bought my wiiu points card they charged me 12% tax for it. I didn't want to have to pray full tax twice so I changed my region. I still payed 17% tax though when I should've only payed 12%. So if the law wants to get on my case they can suck beans.
Not sure what you mean here since Wii U games that you buy online are not bought with points. Also, if you are talking about Wii games you buy for points, you don't pay tax twice since you pay in points, so if a game is 800 points, you pay 800 points, not 800 *1.12 or whatever your tax rate is. You would have paid tax on the 2000 points you bought, for example, but not twice.
#163303 Disc vs Download

I never sell back my games, so I don't have a problem with digital. If the games are huge, like Smash Bros though, I go retail. Another thing, people say that you don't own the game when you go digital, but you only own a license to play it. Is the company going to take it back from you or something?
They're not going to take it back from you or anything, but the argument is being made about whether or not you will always have access to that game. Let's say Nintendo goes bankrupt or decides to stop offering certain games on its online store. (Get around the fact that those things probably won't happen, but we've seen worse and weirder things happen). If you have paid for a game and are granted a license to use it but Nintendo no longer offers it, you can't redownload it, which means you've effectively lost the money you've paid for it. The same thing would not happen with a physical copy unless it requires a constant internet connection to servers to verify its authenticity, though game companies are moving away from that now anyway.
The same applies to physical retail games and not just digital games.
That's actually not true. No, you don't own the physical assets of course, or every gamer would have a 0.00001% ownership of Modern Warfare 3 or Super Smash Bros. or any other game. But you do own an always playable copy of the game that cost you probably the same price as a digital copy would have.
#138188 CNN interviews Reggie Fils Aime.
Posted by Eggplante! on 25 November 2012 - 05:31 PM in Wii U Hardware
Not that Reggie would ever do it, but if he was the type to get super mad and yell that Wii U is better and storm off screen would be bigger news than a little interview like this.
