    Anyone else having problems getting online on Wii u or 3ds tonight? I can't even get onto the eshop nor can I play games online. I can however use the Internet browser on both systems.

    Seems to be a problem with my wifi I can connect on the 3ds over 3G tethering from the phone. I can't reset at the moment as 3 others are streAming TV and I would have to shut them all off. Weird one since the browser is working.

    That contradicts the folk who have already reviewed and condemned it, through the time honoured method of watching a Youtube trailer.

    Probably true too.

    I am after looking through my preorders.. I thought I had Devil's Third already ordered, but it seems not. I'm broke at the minute too.. :(

    I'll find a way... :D

    I know someone in here was looking to get Rodea The Sky Soldier, can't remember who it was. Nintendo put up details about a Special Edition earlier.

    Looks like the Wii U Special Edition pre order is already sold out, 3DS still available though.

    same as, hopefully its just a placeholder

    So for Rodea, is there a difference between the Wii and Wii U versions, apart from graphics? Like are they 2 completely different games?

    There doesn't seem to be - wiki rodea
    On November 14, 2014, Kadokawa announced that the home version of the game has switched platforms from the Wii to the Wii U and that the game was now scheduled to be released in Spring 2015. It was also revealed that the originally cancelled Wii game will be a bonus in the initial print.[9][10]

    Anybody planning on getting The Bridge for the Wii U this week? (。♥‿♥。)

    Apparently the Wii U version plays terribly, which would explain the Wii version being included.

    Pokken tournament is coming to Wii U in Spring 2016, shocking.

    My local Smyths is having a Nintendo all day event on Sept 5th. Apparently a Nintendo rep will be there. Probably just be a demo of Mario Maker. Must take a run down and see if there are any freebies

    I wonder will they be doing it in any other stores.
    They are in the UK- http://www.smythstoys.com/uk/en-gb/page/store-events-page/

    But nowt mentioned here - http://www.smythstoys.com/ie/en-ie/page/store-events-page/

    I didn't even know they did events. I know someone that I'd definitely bring to a Nintendo day and he'd want to drag me to Star Wars day too..
    Must check it out some more :)

    I just saw what was basically an A5 sized notice on the front door about it. Seemed to be issued by Nintendo as had all their characters on it, then just spaces on it for the store to write where and when. Then when I asked the guy at the games desk he didn't know anything about it so went and found out for me. So I think they need to start promoting it over the next couple of weeks.

    I have a 32gig mem stick here, trying to format it to use with the Wii U but it just goes intoa a neverending circle when it's trying to set it up. Anyone know anything about this?

    What read/write speeds does the stick support?

    You shouldn't really be using a memory stick. Buy an external 500GB hard drive. If you know where to look you can get them really cheap.

    No idea, took 5 weeks to come from China, no paperwork.

    Tried the second port and it was fine.

    Not bothered at all about Mario Tennis, but looking forward to Starfox.

    They've shown very little of Mario Tennis - I'm interested to see is there any real depth there. I generally like the Mario Sports games.
