Hey guys, I've been thinking about getting a Wii U for a couple of weeks now mostly because the line up of exclusive games on it actually seems solid and worth playing. So, I wanted to know from those of you who have one, is it worth it right now? Should I wait a bit more (are there rumours of a price drop?) and, is the Wii U Gamepad good for playing in long stretches or should I get a Pro Controller? Thanks. I love my Wii U. The GamePad is surprisingly comfortable. It looks stupid, but it feels so nice. I don't have a Pro Controller, but I want one, mainly because the GamePad has crap battery life, only lasting a few hours before needing to be charged again. Yes....just a few hours...... That being said, offscreen play is a god send. But seeing how close we are to Black Friday, I suggest waiting until then and taking advantage of any sweet deals that come up(and there will be sweet deals).

Ain't even mad. You're not the first person to state this. Won't be the last. And all of you make the same mistake It's more or less being honest with myself. I love laid-back RPGs on portable systems, and every time I tried to play a JRPG on a home console beyond the 16-bit era, I get burned out and bored. This includes Tales of Symphonia (never made it too far, but I still regret selling it) & Skies of Arcadia (quit after entering the forest region, but I'll always treasure my GameCube copy). Xenoblade looks cool & I dig {Spoiler}{Spoiler}Fiora's mecha body , but I know myself... and when it comes to buying games, I'm most often a ham & egger with my budget. So, to parphrase one of the lamest excuses to end a relationship... it's not the game, it's me. On the subject of Mario Kart 8 DLC, however, that Excitebike track looks awesome.

My 3DS got smashed on Sunday night, so I lost everything I had... including the SD card (and the Omega Ruby/Alpha Sapphire Demo I downloaded).
But, yesterday, I put a 2DS on layaway. Frankly, I've liked that design, even though it was made for little kids, so I'll be happy with it.
Oh, and...

Got in Tropical Freeze from Gamefly. Just played around with it a bit - got it a few days ago just been playing Bravely Default instead and... Eh, don't like it. Returns was spotty for me in its own right, but this one seems to have worse controls (I typically like the Gamepad, but the way they've mapped the buttons to it is just awful) and it seriously annoys me that you can only play as DK when playing solo given he's consistently the least fun character in these games.

ph.she.yahoo.com/nintendo-wants-sleep-better-141335111.htmlAfter hinting in January that Nintendo would be spreading its digital dragon's wings beyond gaming and into quality of life, the company has announced that a non-wearable sleep tracking device in partnership with ResMed is in the works. The device will be themed around visualizing sleep and fatigue, according to president Satoru Iwata, who spoke at an investor briefing. It will be part of the Nintendo's Quality of Life (QOL) platform, he says, equipped with a QOL Sensor containing a non-contact radio frequency sensor that will detect body movements, breathing and heart rate from the bedside. Data will be collected and processed for visualization by the QOL cloud servers and ResMed is to help Nintendo to create an analytics base, according to the meeting report. The move follows the release of ResMed's S+ sleep tracker, a no-contact sleep tracker that works similarly to how Iwata describes his company's future device will collect data. Patented bio-motion sensors also monitor temperature in the room, air quality, darkness and noise levels and the device's Mind Clear function allows users to record a voice clip or enter text that helps erase the worry slate for the day. Users can log their daily exercise quotient and caffeine and alcohol intake on the corresponding app, which assesses their habits over time and provides individualized feedback aimed at maximizing sleep quality. Other sleep tracking systems include the Withings Aura ($299.95), whose goal is to increase sleep quality by lulling the user to sleep with a combination of sound and changing lights that train the circadian rhythms to stick to a consistent schedule.
