The Wii U

[TheClash603]

My WiiU locked up about four times last night when playing Nintendo Land. Anyone else have this problem? It's locked up before, but this was the first time it did it consistently. My son and I were trying to play another game of Luigi's Ghost Mansion, and each time we entered the door, the game would freeze and the console made a horrendous screeching noise.

Haven't frozen up yet.  Hopefully this locks aren't a sign of things to come.  :/

I downloaded Chasing Aurora and played a bit of it in single player. It's...uh...disappointing. Actually kinda boring. I need to play it in multiplayer, though. Hopefully that's better.

Anyone play Nano-whatever yet?

my Wii U froze up on my twice. I had it vertical. I have been playing it now horizontally, and haven't noticed anything. What about you guys ?

Ohh my Nintendo ID:Munchi

froze up twice on nintendoland- removed my wifi info and it worked fine. I hear that it has something to do with certain characters used in messages and mii names when you're online. Patch incoming I would imagine.

I read that there's supposedly a system update coming this week. Who knows? I had mine vertical when it crashed. I've had it laying flat for the past couple days with no problems.

[TheClash603]

No crashes for me yet.  Always had it horizontal, not sure if that was the reason.

So i downloaded Mighty switch force Hyper drive edition last night. The game is awesome so far. I love the fact that its very pickup and play friendly. Also theres a good amount of replay value trying to speed run each stage and beat the set time. I def recommend it.

For those that are interested in the backwards compatibility of the Wii U, here's a quick video I put together:

I have a white Wii U with Ninja Gaiden 3 and I'm loving the system so far. The game is hardcore and a big improvement from the 360 version. MiiVerse and the video apps add a lot to the system. The controller is very cool, sometimes I play while watching TV or doing something else. The eShop is quite basic for now but it has potential. I just have to format my 320gb hard drive for it or buy another hard drive to store downloaded games. I also don't like that your Nintendo ID is locked to the console, which makes me not really want to purchase downloadable games. I also lost my entire VC collection when I sold my Wii months back and Nintendo told me there's nothing they can do to recover my games even though my Nintendo ID is linked to my Club Nintendo account and I can see every purchased game. I didn't sell my Wii with my shop channel account still linked. I deleted the account so the new owner wouldn't have access to the games I bought. I just wanted Nintendo to change the license to my new Wii U/Wii mode but they wouldn't do it. I'm still fighting with them on the Nintendo tech boards. I actually lost 75 Virtual games, over $500 in games.

This is why I won't buy any of their stuff, tempting though it is.  It's just too ephemeral.

Well that's some bullshit. 

[futureman2000]

Yeah, the digital release stuff is BS- but I will probably buy games on the Shop that don't have a physical release... acquire coins, get some nintendo bs from the site... the towels look neat.
