200cc???
200CC!?
REALLY NINTENDO?
Can't ramp it up more than that?
Take a look at hacks on the MKWii and MKDS version!
Wii had 200,250,300 [anything over 300 was glitchy]
DS had 200 250 300 and 600, so why the "200 is fassttt" card?

For someone who defends Nintendo so much it's strange to see you don't have the Wii U online for its updates and more.


So? I'm already up to date, 5.3.2, and have all the updates to my games, who cares? :rolleyes: Why does it matter to you what I do on my Wii U? :P

Ugh, man... WiiCube_2013

Ahhh. Good 'ol Nintendo Direct.
Those are great news. Looking forward to those DLCs and games.

Off topic:
Is Satoru Iwata sick or something. He looked like he's getting thinner/slimmer or maybe it's just me.
His English is getting better now.

Let me see if I get this straight, you not only have to pay a tax for each VC title on Wii to migrate them to WiiU,
but also another $2 to make them WiiU VC? Is that right?
Nintendo is shit, we all know that, but that much is surprisingly.

Super Mario 64 transfer from Wii to Wii U

Discounted price - $2.00
Tax - $0.01

Not sure to whether laugh or be confused.

"Keep in mind that the VC you already purchased on Wii, and transfered to WiiU will be avaiable at the special discount price of $2 each"

Not the 2 dollar charge, but the fact the 0.01 I got from taxes, that's the part I'm tempted to laugh at.

You completely misunderstood my post, I'm not talking about this $0.01 of tax,
I'm talking about how outrageous it is for Nintendo to charge three times for a single VC game.
You paid for it on Wii, then you paid a dollar for putting it on WiiU, now more $2 for using them as WiiU VC.
This is ridiculous and outrageous, just look at Sony and you'll see what a decent company do,
the same PS1 title I bought I can play on PSP, PSVita and PS3.
There shouldn't be any charges for migrating it to WiiU, even more migrating to a native WiiU VC.

No, there shouldn't, I agree. There needs to be cross-play for these types of things, and is a big reason why I'm still about to give up on the eShop and rely wholly on ROMs and unofficial emulation. Sure, third party emulators aren't as good as the one Nintendo writes our outsources (such as M2 and their GBA, Megadrive, etc emulators on Wii and Wii U), but it is ridiculous, and something has to do be done about it, to alleviate the issue instead of milking users for everything they've got.

Holy crap, how long ago did I post that? I don't remember when I said that, but it's gotta be old as hell :blink:
I don't believe you did say it. Must be a bug in the forum because if you follow the quote back to the original post, well it does not go back to the original post.

edit: it was ov3rkill a few posts above.

  • BigOnYa @ BigOnYa:
    I think you only get like 425gb on a series s hard drive, so you get 1, 2 next gen games max
  • Xdqwerty @ Xdqwerty:
    @BigOnYa, so you need to have another series s if you wanna play more games?
  • BigOnYa @ BigOnYa:
    Nuh you buy extra HD n add to it, but not cheap
  • Xdqwerty @ Xdqwerty:
    @BigOnYa, how can a console have more than 1 hard drives?
  • MysticStarlight @ MysticStarlight:
    usb expansion? I know the PS4 can do this
  • Xdqwerty @ Xdqwerty:
    @MysticStarlight, oh Yea I recall my PS3 can do that
  • Xdqwerty @ Xdqwerty:
    Modded ofc
  • Xdqwerty @ Xdqwerty:
    Speaking of my PS3 i havent downloaded any games yet bc my wifi is too slow
  • Xdqwerty @ Xdqwerty:
    and also because blackouts here are very common and that could damage the console
  • MysticStarlight @ MysticStarlight:
    Do you have a surge protector or an UPS?
  • BigOnYa @ BigOnYa:
    Yea but to play the next gen games, you must have those games on internal, or buy the official ssd expansion cards, which are expensive
  • Xdqwerty @ Xdqwerty:
    @MysticStarlight, dunno what each one of those are
  • Xdqwerty @ Xdqwerty:
    @MysticStarlight, my PS3 was already modded when my dad bought it for me and my brother
  • MysticStarlight @ MysticStarlight:
    A surge protector is a device that protects your electronics from fluctuations. I recommend having your console plugged into one of those
  • MysticStarlight @ MysticStarlight:
    An UPS is even better because it has an internal battery that keeps your system on even if the power goes out, but it's much more expensive obviously
  • Xdqwerty @ Xdqwerty:
    @MysticStarlight, oh i recall seeing one in some in the houses of some relatives, including my dad's apartment
  • Xdqwerty @ Xdqwerty:
    @MysticStarlight, although whatever device we plug into them stops getting power anyways lol
  • MysticStarlight @ MysticStarlight:
    that's weird
  • Xdqwerty @ Xdqwerty:
    @MysticStarlight, and oh i was talking about ups
  • Xdqwerty @ Xdqwerty:
