Yeah.  You can set the Wii U up to control your TV as well, and so you can use it as a TV remote basically.

Pretty cool, IMO.

I love how easy it was to set up the controller to work with my cable box and TV. One button: BOOM! Done.

Still waiting for the system update, though...

My system update took under an hour.   I guess everyone was watching the football shit instead

I plan to get it when I get my bonus next year in April. Hopefully by then Dragon Quest X will be out for it here.

Time to start looking at Wii titles I want to try out :D

Yay for Mario at least being fun, had no doubt it would be though.


I want to see a Mario Kart game on the system like NOW!

I'm wondering how Transformers Prime for Wii U is.  I haven't bothered to look at any reviews for the other versions of it.

I was at Toys R Us again today and I picked up two copies of Fling Smash for the Wii.  $25 price with the buy one get one 40% off ended up with a total cost of $40.  The reason this was a great deal is the game comes packaged with a Wii Remote Plus.  Since the price was so good, I decided to upgrade my original Wii controllers, since motion plus will presumably be required this generation.

I believe the Wii Remote Plus as a standalone product is $40, so you can't beat this price.

Playing Mario Chase in Nintendoland with my son has already made the WiiU worth the price.

Finally had a chance to set things up last night.  Did all of the updates. Only played about 20 minutes of Nintendo land.  Hopefully my wife and I will have a chance to play a bit later.

Started the Wii to WiiU transfer this morning and planning on using my Wii as my Component GameCube...  A bit miffed that Lost Winds isn't transfering. (Frontier are saying Nintendo are currently testing a patch.)
