• GAME to sell a range of tablets, including iPads

• phoenixology 04/04/2013

  From what I've heard, there's not much money to be made in reselling Apple hardware. Maybe the other tablets (that no one wants), but no not iPads. Reply 0

  @null Fire Emblem Awakening for 3DS will probably get a 9/10 when it comes out in a couple of weeks. Reply +1

• Wii U external hard drive required to download Lego City Undercover, Nintendo says

• phoenixology 15/03/2013

  If Nintendo knew this game was in the launch window of the Wii U why put only a 32GB HDD in their highest spec package?
  
  PS3 can come with a 500GB HDD and Xbox 360 comes with 250GB (supposedly an older generation of consoles).
  
  I feel this simply discourages anyone to download retail games off their eShop without fear of storage space.
  
  
  NOTE: I own a Wii U premium. This is my rage. Reply +57

  You ask the question could it been used in HMV?
  
  Well the answer to that is something that exists as 'Gamerbase'. Reply +7

• Ubisoft "hurt" seeing Rayman Legends Wii U fans upset at delay, extends new olive branch

• phoenixology 19/02/2013

  Don't really care about another demo, I just want to give them my hard earned cash for the full game!
  
  As @Ultrasoundwave says it should be a timed exclusive and Ubisoft should bring the game out now on the Wii U.
  
  It wouldn't be the first time a game has been released on one format and the next format release was months/years. Reply +11

• Wii U-exclusive Rayman Legends to go multiplatform

• phoenixology 07/02/2013

  Oh man, I bought the Wii U on launch and this was one of the games I was looking forward to playing at the end of the month.
  
  Coincidentally, the only other console I've bought at a launch was the Sega Dreamcast.
  
  I hope haven't cursed it or this isn't a sign that the Wii U is the next Dreamcast. Reply +10

  Why they aren't porting it to Wii U, I don't know. Seems the perfect fit. Reply +1

• Nintendo plans merge of handheld and console teams in historic shake-up

  Great news. I'd totally buy a Wii U add-on that allowed me to play 3DS games on the TV/Gamepad. Reply +4

  Bring the 'indie' game to the Wii U eShop then I'll buy it. Reply -8

• Second-hand Wii U consoles give access to old users' games - report

• phoenixology 04/01/2013

  This is great news. Shows Nintendo don't mind the preowned market and people buying preowned Wii U's don't need to purchase them off the eShop.
  
  If I worked at Nintendo and had a business head I probably would have just tied purchases to a Nintendo ID, but ah well. Reply -2

  His Mum has 3 guns and ammo in their house... I blame their gun laws. If he didn't have access to guns this wouldn't have happened regardless of a video game. Video games are not the blame here. Reply +39

  @Heitzu I just emailed customer-support@nintendo.co.uk a complaint.
  
  I suggest everyone who would like this restriction removed in the UK do the same. Reply +9

  Surely there's a loophole... get Nintendo's eShop managed from the Windsor offices in the UK. Reply +9

  I wonder if it supports Gamecube discs?
  
  If it does support them and the price is low, I'd be tempted to have it sit alongside my Wii U. Reply -5

  Does anyone want to figure out how much you would have to spend on games at Tesco or GAME to get the same amount of loyalty discount on the Clubcard/Reward Card?
  
  I think Nintendo are very generous. Reply +83

• Nintendo Network ID confined to single Wii U console

  OMG everyday there is literally a 'thousand steps back by Nintendo' news report on various gaming sites.
  
  I've preordered the Deluxe version for launch but It's really starting to put me off my preorder now. Anyone feel lightly the same from all this going backwards news? Reply +21
