#99974 Black and white confirmed for launch colors by Nintendo Rep.

Posted by FrostySweetness on 15 August 2012 - 04:08 PM in Wii U Hardware

Yeah, I would so get black too, but and then I may hold off for a bit just in case there are new colors released, but then at the same time, consoles really aren't released in multiple colors like handhelds or we have to wait a while (like 2 yrs or so) for a color change.

#99979 GameStop Employee: "There will be no Wii U Midnight Launch(es) at GameSto...

Posted by FrostySweetness on 15 August 2012 - 04:19 PM in Wii U Hardware

Yeah, I wouldn't take his word...he can just be going by his personal opinion. I am the only person I know considering and pretty much will get the Wii U (or try to) on launch...most people I know are disappointed in Nintendo, with their choice in software, features, etc...the dude can just be taking his personal opinion and what others think about the Wii now, and just think there is no demand or little demand for the Wii U.

I believe Nintendo will have a midnight release...there will be demand for the Wii U. There already is. And I talked to an employee back before the 3DS launched and he said the midnight releases go by demand/ pre-order numbers.

#99982 Anti- zombiu

Posted by FrostySweetness on 15 August 2012 - 04:47 PM in Wii U Games and Software

I am not buying it because I am just simply too scaredy to play...I can't even play Dead Space without turning the game off before I get to the monsters xD...cause I know they are dead people. The only way I can play zombie horror is with a friend on co-op, which is the only reason I am getting Resident Evil 6.

#100038 Rumor:Nintendo's Achievements/Trophies name announced as Wii U" Accom...

Posted by FrostySweetness on 16 August 2012 - 04:07 AM in Wii U Hardware

I am like Killer Mario. I really don't care about achievements. To me, it is all about playing the game and enjoying it. I have and follow the other two consoles too and it annoys me when people on new releases get angry about the achievements/trophies either because they are not good enough, there aren't too many in the game, etc. It is like "Play the game, do you need a little trophy to keep you playing or make you feel better?"

I know not all people who care about them are like that, some people just like them, and it is a nice feature...I just had to get a rant out.

But back to Nintendo giving it to Wii U, go ahead! The more features, the merrier!

#107066 Just got my pre order in

Posted by FrostySweetness on 13 September 2012 - 01:50 PM in Wii U Hardware

Yeah, I got my pre-order in too. I was refreshing Amazon at first to see if the page will come back up, since they removed it (here in the US) a while ago. It's still no page for it...but then, they really been having an issue with Nintendo systems lately for some reason.

I did get Rayman Legends pre-ordered and locked in at $50 before they raised the price back up to $60 as I had figured.

So Gamestop comes up with the pre-order page and I just got it pre-ordered at Gamestop. Mines was like $387 with tax, but if it may also be $390-something for me like Angelo07's ended up for him, then I may go ahead and do that. If Amazon ever does get a page, then I'll get it there to save on tax and shipping.

Overall, it's decent in my opinion like launch systems usually are, seems like a lot of fun though, especially with Rayman, The Awesome 101, Mario, and Zombi U...should keep me going for a bit.

#107219 What I learned from pre-ordering the Wii U at gamestop

Posted by FrostySweetness on 13 September 2012 - 06:22 PM in Wii U Hardware

I wish the best for you all who are pre-ordering later on, but I think Nintendo knows the demand for this, especially if they plan on releasing for Black Friday in the US for the sales.

But yeah, I pre-ordered mine on Gamestop.com. Wanted to go ahead and get my order in there. I actually cannot wait for this console to release.

#107220 Hands-On with Girlfriend Mode in Rayman Legends Wii U

Posted by FrostySweetness on 13 September 2012 - 06:24 PM in Wii U Games and Software

Yeah, I love the naming! But I wanted this game since they showed it at E3...looks like a lot of freaking fun!

#107221 Official Monster Hunter 3 Ultimate Discussion

Posted by FrostySweetness on 13 September 2012 - 06:27 PM in Wii U Games and Software

Yeah, I cannot wait for this to come out! I was like, "FINALLY!" Here's hoping it has online too.

But yeah, I want both versions too...hopefully they can do some kind of bundle deal for this, like Sony does for the PS3/Vita games, but that's their first party titles though, and MH is thru Capcom which I know won't give their consumers a deal...they hardly give us what we want.

#107380 is wii u going to fail what do you think or is it a hit?

Posted by FrostySweetness on 14 September 2012 - 07:06 AM in Wii U Hardware

The Wii U is going to succeed, they got a list of launch day titles and launch window that will keep you going for a while. Yeah, some titles like Batman and Mass Effect has been out for a while on other consoles, but it's good for those who haven't played them or only had a Nintendo console to experience them. There are also great games with Zombi U, Rayman, Scribblenauts...stuff for all ages and kind of player, not just mainly kids and causal players anymore. I think Nintendo learned from the Wii and they want to aim for everyone...you can have a collection for yourself if you prefer shooters and more hardcore games, have a collection for your kids, and some for a party.

#107459 Basic Bundle Worth It?/Anyone getting it?

Posted by FrostySweetness on 14 September 2012 - 11:41 AM in Wii U Hardware

Yeah, the deluxe bundle is worth the money. Color doesn't matter to me either (yet it sucks you are forced to have a certain one depending on which bundle you get), and what I got from his words at the conference is the regular one only has like 8 GB of memory and not extendable at all. Yeah, some people has their own HDMI and doesn't care about the stands and stuff, Nintendo Land, but it is not really that much more for 4 times the memory, extendable too, the extra stuff you may end up getting anyways, an extra $60 game, and that points system.

#107464 Could Platinum become a Nintendo first/second party?

Posted by FrostySweetness on 14 September 2012 - 11:45 AM in General Gaming

Yeah, I think it will be awesome if Platinum joins up witih Nintendo. Be really interesting to see and already has been interesting.

Plus the video game industry isn't stable...you always hear about developing studios closing down and layoffs, but you never hear of any of that stuff about Nintendo...I think things may look up to them better if they side up with Nintendo.

#107466 Basic Bundle Worth It?/Anyone getting it?

Posted by FrostySweetness on 14 September 2012 - 11:47 AM in Wii U Hardware

Well idk...these ain't Reggie's exact words, but I'll just recite it the best I can from what I got.

*He introduces and said all what there was about the basic bundle*

then he was like, "With the deluxe edition, 32 GB plus, you get extendable memory, you can use a USB drive or a hard drive"

(Again, not his exact words, but he didn't mention extendable memory until he mentioned the deluxe version) I can be wrong though.

#107476 Basic Bundle Worth It?/Anyone getting it?

Posted by FrostySweetness on 14 September 2012 - 11:53 AM in Wii U Hardware

Nothing wrong witih making you a bit of money possibly...people pay how much they want, like if they keep bidding, then they are willing to pay that price. I want to pre-order another just in case demand does overceed supply and Gamestop may screw me out of one, but it seems like since this is ALMOST a simultaneous worldwide release, and released for Black Friday in the US, then there may be plenty of supply.

#107478 What games did U pre-order?

Posted by FrostySweetness on 14 September 2012 - 11:54 AM in Wii U Games and Software

I got Mario, Rayman, and Scribblenauts. Zombi U seems freaking awesome, I love the gameplay and wanna play, but I am too scared. xD

Still may end up picking it up.

I bought Corpse Party, a freaking anime horror survival game on the Vita on its lauch and I still am too punk to play it.

#107480 Could Platinum become a Nintendo first/second party?

Posted by FrostySweetness on 14 September 2012 - 11:56 AM in General Gaming

For real, I think Nintendo will treat Sonic and their other franchises good...just like Capcom needs to sell Nintendo Megaman instead of not doing it cause when Nintendo makes games off him, they will be mad cause that could had been their money.

#107484 IMPORTANT: IF YOU ARE GOING TO PRE-ORDER THE PREMIUM EDITION

Posted by FrostySweetness on 14 September 2012 - 12:00 PM in Wii U Hardware

I may go after I get out this class and put $25 down on a bundle...I got one onlien, but I like playing it safe...if my GS online order ships, then I'll cancel the store one I am thinking of pre-ordering. Or I may do best-buy. All I know is during these console launches, people get screwed over, even if they were number 3 at their store out of 50 with pre-orders.

#107488 is wii u going to fail what do you think or is it a hit?

Posted by FrostySweetness on 14 September 2012 - 12:05 PM in Wii U Hardware

Yeah, I liked the 90's....plenty of original games, even the Xbox/PS2/GC days were awesome. These days, it is the same darn franchises milked out...but I can't blame the companies. If I developed CoD and there are millions of blind sheep who buy the game each year no matter what, easy millions of dollars in profit, shoot...

But yeah, it is causing nothing but them to come out...we used to get more original games, JRPGs and stuff, but now they aren't coming as much anymore it seems cause most people want to shoot up things. I love all my consoles and all my genres, but people geezh...feels like I am being limited to shooters at times.

I love games like Mario, LittleBigPlanet, original stuff...fun stuff...games I can just have fun on, create, etc.

#107917 wii u in the us sold out at gamestop.com/us site

Posted by FrostySweetness on 15 September 2012 - 06:32 AM in Wii U Hardware

Dang. I didn't expect it to sell out that fast tbh. I thought there would be more pre-order allocations, since Nintendo knows how big a hit the Wii was (and Nintendo systems during the Christmas season) period, plus it being an almost worldwide release.

Glad I got mine in.

Either that or these retailers are being cautious and limiting their preorder stock as they're not totally convinced that it will be a big hit.

Yeah, that can be possible too...that happens at times, especially when items are an hit, they want to be careful not to oversell on items.

It can also be that some places have run out an certain amount of the allocations and they want some on the shelf during Black Friday and release day.

Either way, it is a good thing! Good for those who caught one in time too, and those who haven't pre-ordered yet, I hope you find a store.

#107996 Everything at Wii U launch

Posted by FrostySweetness on 15 September 2012 - 08:48 AM in Wii U Hardware

Yeah, the list is too broad but hey, it's a good one. I can't wait to know exact release dates of everything!

I doubt they'd have extra consoles at launch but they may have some, well speaking for the US on Black Friday even if it is a few held back ones for the shelves to draw desperate people to the stores. If you get them in there for one item they want, they most likely will buy other things, and some people probably wouldn't had came at all if it wasn't for the Wii U being available. It's a good strategy if so.

#107997 Which game are you playing right now ?

Posted by FrostySweetness on 15 September 2012 - 08:50 AM in General Gaming

World of Warcraft mainly

LittleBigPlanet 2 in prep for the Vita version

Little King's Story...so hyped for the 2nd one...sooo getting that one

And soon Borderlands 2

#108001 Wii U Accessories at Gamestop

Posted by FrostySweetness on 15 September 2012 - 08:59 AM in Wii U Hardware

Gonna get a pro controller and probably that touch pad cover with stylus...I like to eat and stuff while doing things, but my controllers still stay clean...I'll see.

#108002 Which game are you playing right now ?

Posted by FrostySweetness on 15 September 2012 - 09:00 AM in General Gaming

I LOVE LKS!!!! BEST GAME EVAAAHHHHH!!!!!

For real! Game is freaking awesome! Love them type and wish more came out, but I am glad the 2nd one finally got a release date and is being localized.

#108003 BEST BUY IS SOLD OUT

Posted by FrostySweetness on 15 September 2012 - 09:03 AM in Wii U Hardware

Yeah, a home console is not worth playing with...

And secondly, if you want something, pre-order it..especially if you don't want disappointment. But hey, people who can camp out and risk it, I'll give you your props!

I just can't do it!

#109191 Should I sell my PS3 for a Wii U?

Posted by FrostySweetness on 17 September 2012 - 02:36 PM in Wii U Hardware

Is amazon even selling the Wii U? I can't seem to find it??

Yeah, he has a point...Amazon isn't selling the Wii U atm, unless you live in the UK or somewhere else. And I wouldn't even count on them either, especially by how long they been sketchy on the 3DS...I guess do them if this $227 is for your games and accessories.

I don't know what to tell you. Depends on how much you play your PS3 and want to just have a variety of games to play. I can't see me giving up my other systems because there is always going to be a game I want on a system...I'd say if you can make the money for it, just save the money and buy it.

#109194 Did anyone preorder the Wii U? Are you guys on the Hype train?

Posted by FrostySweetness on 17 September 2012 - 02:39 PM in Wii U Hardware

I'm real excited too....I am not hopping all over the place, but I am really stoked! Got me the deluxe bundle and no space on my console area...idk where it is gonna go...I am in a dorm an dthere is literally nowhere I can put it by my tv, but that is for me to figure out when it comes.
