#144864 Origin of your username

Posted by xMichiyo on 06 December 2012 - 11:44 PM in The Café

I chose xMichiyo (which I use for nearly everything) because, back when I was into anime... I used a "Japanese name translator" to translate my real name into Japanese. It was Michiyo. I added the x because "Michiyo" is often taken on sites, but "xMichiyo" is not. I kept the name through the years simply because it's easy to just keep using the same one. Plus I like the nickname "Michi", haha.

#144847 So I'm new and stuff.

I've made a couple of posts, but kept putting off starting one here since I'm new. ....buuuut now here it is.

I go by xMichiyo, Michi, or Mandy.

I got a Wii U on launch night, second in line at the particular place I was at. First time having a system at launch! (Or anywhere NEAR launch..)

So far I have Scribblenauts Unlimited, Nintendoland, and New Super Mario Bros U.

My Nintendo Network ID is xMichiyo
I also have a 3ds, and my friend code is: 4038-6099-8569

I think that's good for now.

If you do go the repair route there are tons of writeups and videos out there to show you.

Do you have one that you think is best for my specific problem?

Looks like I've got a couple of different options to think about now. Thanks guys.

#144533 Old broken Wii. Useless?

sell it on ebay as faulty.
Or do something else that's pretty much piracy.

I have no knowledge about doing the second option, lol.

#144530 Game releases

Give it time. It's a brand new system. The thing JUST came out!

Nintendo's got a lot going on right now. I get impatient too from time to time, though. :/

#144527 Old broken Wii. Useless?

Posted by xMichiyo on 06 December 2012 - 09:41 AM in General Gaming

I have a Wii U now, so I don't need my Wii.

I was thinking of selling or giving it away, except for one problem.. It stopped reading discs months ago. It was sudden. My brother tried to use it to play something and it would not read the disc, and that was it. Nothing works.

It's a rather old Wii. I got it in 07 or 08...

I was wondering if anyone had the same problem I did and found an easy quick solution?

If it's going to be a lot of trouble, then I probably won't bother.... but, if I can easily turn something useless into a gift/donation or quick buck, why not?

#144520 Is Naruto one of the most overrated animes?

I enjoyed it all the way up until the Chunin exams. For some reason I completely lost interest after that.

I really only enjoyed Sonic Adventure1/2, and maybe Heroes. Just a little...

#144397 Reggie possibly in huge trouble

Posted by xMichiyo on 06 December 2012 - 01:39 AM in General Gaming

Is it sad that it took me a couple of minutes to get that it was fake? Whew. I'm slow.

I actually never thought of all that. My brother would be thrilled if this happened! Any of it!

#144159 Scribblenauts Unlimited Wii U Reviews

Posted by xMichiyo on 05 December 2012 - 01:33 PM in Wii U Game Reviews

Very fun, huge improvement in the series. The first game, if I remember correctly, revolved more around puzzles than around smaller quests and helping people out. I haven't played Super Scribblenauts though, so I can't say how much better it is than that one.

Miiverse is extremely helpful for this game, since you can screenshot and ask the community whenever you get stuck solving something. Replies are usually very quick! The online "shops" in this game are a ton of fun too, since people have created tons of stuff for you to download. Already I've seen everything from Pokemon to TF2 characters.

The only thing that'd make it better for me is better multiplayer (the second player is very tough to control and doesn't get to do much), and some form of online multiplayer other than the shops.

8.5/10.

#144065 New Update right now?!

Posted by xMichiyo on 05 December 2012 - 10:54 AM in Wii U Hardware

Ha Ha, and there was another thing that they were not very direct about. Pikmin 3 has another release "window" of April-June in NA. Oh brother.

I don't think anything got an actual release date.
