This always makes me a little sad because the D-pad on my gamepad is loving terrible, and the local Nintendo support here in Finland told me it's fine when I sent it in.

That sucks. My first Wii U gamepad’s dpad squeaked like crazy to the point that it was jarring while using it and NOA was cool and replaced it.

I was a little interested in Gear Club Unlimited, but the price is pretty high and 30fps is a deal breaker when it comes to racing games for me.
So I picked up Mantis Burn Racing instead

I have to say it's quite a fun little game, my only gripe so far is the framerate occasionally drops from 60 on a few tracks- and it's quite noticeable because the game runs like butter the rest of the time.. it actually gives me that weird guitar hero vision if I play for a while.
It even supports cross platform online multiplayer, pretty cool but I haven't seen anyone else playing yet

It'll probably be a game with an okay plot, cool environments, and a somewhat divisive combat system like the first one.

I played Revelations on the WiiU and had a good time, it was originally a 3DS game so I imagine it's very easy to port- probably why they've already ported it to everything.
Gonintendo has video reviews for both Revelations 1&2 and it appears capcom did a good job porting them, here's the first review

I liked Rev 2 a lot better than the first, apart from making the good ending dependant on something you might not even realise is a choice halfway through the game.

I pre-ordered this from Amazon for the physical discount and it's arriving today. Looking forward to it and also looking forward to the RE2 remake next year as well. I've also been thinking about playing Code Veronica again on the PS4. I don't know if it's the best of the classic RE games, but it's almost certainly the longest.

So that explains why he did not answer. He had no mouth to answer with. There is nothing left of him but his ears.

Just got my birthday discount email, is Yoshi's Woolly World worth $21? The only other game that catches my eye is New Super Mario Bros U, and at $47 that still seems a little too pricey.

Yes, I still have my Wii U hooked up to my television. No, I don't know why.

I'd actually reccomend getting the 3DS version of Wolly World instead, it has more content and shorter load times.
