I'm sorry I didn't understand the notice above. Will the Wii-U pad/Pro controller be usable for the Wii titles? I really don't want to have to use the Wii remote.

If you were able to use the classic controller on the Wii then yes. If you were only able to play with the wiimoteand nunchuck then you can only use that. The only games that you will be able to use the gamepad for are Pandora's Tower and Sin and Punishment which are coming out later.

Ah gotcha, thank you. I'm far less interested in getting the SMG2 and the Metroid Trilogy now

wii controls sucks, but that price...

Yup same here. I might just give Metroid a try since I've never played any of them. I'll pass on Galaxy 2.

Seriously. Worse for me is that my Wii U shipped with a defect inside the game pad that I know needs to be shipped to Nintendo for repair. So while these sales go down I may not have the console at home to make the purchases.

If you already made your nintendo network id on your wii u, you can purchase the games online.

Sweet, thank you I'll be following up on this.

Who else is trading in their 3DS? I need to check in with my Gamestop and find out what value I'll be getting for it.

Metroid Prime for 10 dollars? Gotta do that

I tried the Metroid Prime Trilogy on the regular wii, was so pumped when 1 came out, but for some reason, playing that game gave me the biggest headache. I really wanted to get into it too, just couldn't.

Bro when I used to play metroid prime 1 on the GameCube it would give me a headache too...always wondered why

$75 for OG 3DS and $100 for 3DSXL if you put it towards new 3DS.

Perfect, I'll be doing that soon then. I hardly play it but it's worth it to me to upgrade if the specs are going to be different.

Yeah, I meant GameCube. Couldn't finish, thought I was the only one.

Now yall got me second guessing Metroid

 

[9th Wonder]

Super Metroid is the business

Just copped Galaxy 2, 2 hour download though? I think I need a wired connection..

I never have had a problem DL wirelessly until recently... last ps4 download said multiple hours as well

 

[iYen]

I recently bought the wii version of metroid prime 3 corruption. The version that's in the trilogy is the exact same game as the wii version correct?

Bascially, I don't need said game now?

I think it's mostly for people who get a headache with fps
I'm the same with most fps
Don't play them that often

That sounds right. Trilogy is simply the three games packaged together without any additional features.

Are those bootleg Wii Remotes good to use? Don't want to drop $40 for the official one.

Nope. Nope. Nope.

$25 for a refurb. wiimote/nunchuck.

What other games do you want to see on the "wii?"

I'm eyeing:

• xenoblade
• metal slug anthology
• kirby's dream land
• super smash brawl
• last story

Honestly, for me the Wii catalog is so weak I don't want much from it. I'm much more interested in seeing Nintendo make GameCube games available and 64 games too.

 

[Johnny_Cakes]

And I'm sad there wasn't a console Animal Crossing announced.

I understand.
I copped a wii for ssb and that was it. Now that I have a wii u, I've been finding various wii hidden gems.

murumasa, madworld, red steel 2, no more heroes 2, etc.

I could have sworn I saw 64 games on the eshop. Like a snowboard game or something.

 

[Mcflyy]

I'm a little upset that the small NEW 3DS won't be coming to America, I would have liked to have an option to get that one cause of the customization that it offers.
I wonder what their reasoning behind not launching that SKU here was.

 

[Ricky D]

I doubt Xenoblade will come to the eShop. If it does, I'd think it'll be a long time after the Xenoblade 3D drops. You wouldn't want to take away from potential sales. I do hope we get Last Story and hopefully we also get Pandora's Tower.

I'm ok with no smaller 3DS. My OG 3DS made my hands hurt after about an hour of play.

Every piece of news and every single trailer shown at the Nintendo Direct.

Can't wait to pick up the Metroid Prime: Trilogy for $10; Almost bought a new copy for $150 last week. Love how Nintendo is sticking it to the scalpers. Also, playing Super Mario Galaxy 1 + 2 is a annual tradition. Probably the best platformers of all time and they're direct sequels. 

Still need to pick up Pikmin 3. Can't believe they discontinued the physical release.

I heard they're working on it
