I’m sure you meant the opposite, but this made me chuckle. The game must be based on unicorn fairy lore for this to be the case…
Thanks for all the recommends, guys. Right now my daughter just pokes around with me in Mario 3d world and let’s me do all the heavy lifting. I’m amazed at how sheepish she is in games and how scared to ‘die’ she is. Compared to how many thousands of times I’d die playing the merciless montezuna’s revenge on the Colecovision. There’s a generational divide here…
While we’re chatting about the Wii U, I’ve noticed I get sporadic low-charge messages that flicker for half-seconds here and there. I’ve just kept the gamepad plugged via USB cable I bought on amazon to the USB port on the back of the console, figuring that would be fine. Is it not enough juice from the console to just keep it going? Looks like I could get a replacement battery on a amazon while I can, but there also seems to be a charging dock for purchase (I think they come standard with the deluxe wii U, but I have the bitty model)… but they don’t come with a cable / AC block and don’t specify what would be needed. Does this charging dock need to be plugged into an AC adapter like for tablets/phones via the USB cable I have? The annoyances of using old things that need recharging, huh…
Yeah, I should just get the integrated AC cable on amazon. The previous owners did include one, but it has the EU two prong plug, weirdly, since the console plug is UK…not sure I care to leave it plugged into a travel converter full time.
I also watch it on my Xbox, but I’ve been playing a lot more WiiU than Xbox lately.
As of the 26th September, Wii U owners will no longer be able to access Amazon Prime Video from their devices. It had to happen sometime!
Prime Video users have been receiving emails informing them of the bad news, and offering $25 credit towards buying certain Fire TV device to help cushion the blow.
And while I can’t speak for anybody else, the Amazon Fire stuff has consistently been the very worst and least reliable streaming hardware I’ve ever used in my entire life.
The only good “smart TV” stuff I’ve ever encountered is WebOS, which is on LG TVs. Even that has some problems though. Like when I signed on with one profile on SlingTV, there’s no way to sign out of that profile other than to delete the app off the TV and redownload it. But I suspect that has more to do with SlingTV’s shitty app than WebOS. SlingTV is also really bad on the Xbox.
Xenoblade is huuuge. W101 will be a fun palate cleanser between Xenoblade sessions (well, the other way around, really. W101 will give you a heart attack if you don’t take breaks), but I wouldn’t plan on playing FE until Xenoblade is done.
All three are fantastic games. I’d say FE took me the longest to get into.
I wouldn’t suggest this one unless you’re playing with 1 to 2 other people. It’s very fun co-op, but very dry and straightforward solo because a lot of the fun comes from the interactivity with your friends/family. And it’s a fun co-op game, not the type that leads to divorce.
Isn’t the Dolphin emulator really good right now? I know it’s not the same but you definitely don’t have any moral reasons to not go there now.
A while back I hacked a Wii to play games off a hard drive so I know that’s possible at least. That’s one step closer but different hardware (the OG Wii).
Hm, I wonder if the Europe store doesn’t have a lot of those. Not seeing any of the Capcom collections, Megaman11 etc … then again, I probably have access to all of those on PC anyway if I wanted them, discounted as much when Steam sales hit… not too much point putting them on my Wii U.
I pretty much have ever disc game I could want, bought at a pittance on ebay. Some were pricier, like BotW and Marumasa, but still sub £30.
