The Gamestop by my work has a Zelda special edition Wii U on sale for the price of a normal one that I'm eyeballing enviously. I really can't afford it, but I'm considering finding room in the budget. The question is, the Mario Kart 8 Wii U has also been released recently, and that would give me two games instead of just one I already played. Ideally including this one. But I really want that Historia artbook. First world decisions

*sigh* This pushed me over the edge and I ALSO just ordered a Costco bundle. They almost had me at Pikmin 3 but this LP and the new Mario Kart made it a go. Stop looking like it's so much fun.

As someone who has the Hyrule Historia, knows how pretty the Zelda Wii U looks and has been playing MK8 non-stop since I picked it up earlier today, this is a tough decision. I would say get the MK8 Wii U, get more out of your money and maybe buy the Historia at a later date? It's your money at the end of the day, though I gotta say I don't envy having to make this decision.

Get MK8 bundle, download WWHD, buy physical copy of Historia. Reading it on the console is kind of awkward to be honest.

Depending on your history with Nintendo games, NES Remix and its sequel are also good eShop games to get; and if you like the Pushmo/Pullblox puzzle games on the 3DS, there's a WiiU one coming as well.

Stallion Cabana posted:Super off topic but I've never actually gotten to see footage of this game, only a speed run. It seemed really good but I wasn't sure. It takes DKCR and polishes it to a fine sheen. While DKCR had great platforming the levels felt the same aside from a couple of standouts. Tropical Freeze has some repetition in the first world, but after that every stage has a flavor all its own. You may be jumping between small platforms, but in one level it will be floating balloons high among frozen peaks and in another it will be leaves that get blown around by owls on alpenhorns in time with the music. Seriously. https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=8XM1pG8z22w Some levels definitely have a more "oh my god this is crazy" asthetic than others, but every one has something different. My main complaint about the game is just that some bosses are way too much of a slog, particularly the last one.

Add another to the "got a wii u" group. I was planning on one to play monster hunter and smash bros but figured there was enough good games to get one now. I literally live next to a rental store and they have wonderful 101 and this game so I decided the hell with it and ordered one online last night.

I actually went on a binge and got MK8, Monster Hunter Unlimited 3, Mario World 3D, Windwaker HD (Free Game), Pikmin 3 (Bought it off the free game SA Mart thread) - I'll probably end up owning the entire Wii U library within a month at this rate.

I'm loving this LP so far. I've been lurking the thread, but I wanted to speak up and say this really changed my mind about the game. I've just kinda been given a certain expectation from all the 'New Mario this and that' games, and I'm really happy this one seems so much better than those. You might as well add me to the list of Wii U's sold too. I haven't bought mine yet, but that Mario Kart bundle will probably be an impulse buy any day now. And I just have to get one for this game at this point.

OK. This thread, combined with all the excellent MK8 gifs that have been posted make me want to buy a Wii U now. Holy gently caress Nintendo, I didn't want to spend my money this. It's going to be a used one for $80, but oh well.
