that's almost as high as SMG. It's funny because people are complaining there are no good games for the Wii U.. while they are being attacked by mediocre dissapointing games.

What's interesting this time is that critics seem to be picking up on it. Only took them eight years.

So you can boot straight to gamepad/Wii mode if you change your Wii U vid settings to non-hdmi. But that makes the Wii U res 480i...so you'd basically have to change the video settings every time you play depending on whether you want to play on or off the TV, if you want to be able to start the Wii mode/gamepad only when you don't have the TV nearby?

"im 30 and i finally play with big boy toys" - anti-Nintendo troll on IGN's 9.6 review of SM3DW

New hobby: contact PS4 resellers on Craigslist offering to pay their ridiculous asking prices and then arranging a meeting place and not showing up

hey, at least PS4 has an awesome twin-stick shooter. that's pretty cool

Take all my money Nintendo. All of it.

how does it work if you buy a used ps3 with games already on the hdd? can those only be accessed by the original user? is there any way they could be lost?

If they keep it activated through their account the games will be recoverable/playable, if they deactivated it then no they can't be retrieved/played. Their account has to remain on the system as well.

What do you mean exactly by "deactivate"? They can deactivate individual games that were purchased?

Games can be shared on two consoles as long as the account that holds the games is activated on the system. It's all or none.

somebody near me got his Taco Bell promo PS4 in the mail today apparently: http://raleigh.craigslist.org/vgm/4189353811.html

So they are selling it to provide for their children, that's respectable. 600 is steep even with Knack and 1 year of plus, but I guess I can understand.

they could honestly probably get 700 or 800 for it if they found someone who's desperate enough to play 2 days early

I don't see why Nintendo can't make it slighlty cheaper than it is in reatail, more people will be inclined to buy it and they will easily make more money than they would at retail!

Toki Tori 2+ is described as: "Explore a beautiful, Metroidvania style open world." I never played the Metroid or Castlevania series. What does the term "metroidvania" really mean here?

Can't wait to see the one or two bullcrap reviews each game will get. ALBW: "6/10 isn't different enough from other zelras" SM3DW: "4/10 awkwardcontrols not rated M"

maybe a link between worlds, but not Mario. Mario isn't that hated, to be honest.

we'll see! IGN usually seems to have reviews out a few days early so surely they can't be that far away
