Reddit reviews Nintendo Wii U Console - 32GB Black Deluxe Set

http://g-ecx.images-amazon.com/images/G/01/aplus/detail-page/B009AGXH64hardware.jpg

Wii-U

To play this game you need to get a Wii U. You can play any Wii U game ^^(obviously) and you can play any Wii game. It also has Virtual Console which is older games from the NES to the Gamecube you can download and play on your Wii U.

I saw a post a few days back about GameStop having Wii U for $99 USD. New Wii Us are very expensive.

Well that did make my frontal lobe hurt. My whole brain, rather.

Also,
>A graphics card costs more than a Wii U, PS4 or Xbox One.

No. A Wii U costs $320, a PS4 costs $390 and an Xbox One costs $300.

My video card, an AMD Radeon HD 7850, costs $170. It runs everything on highest settings (that includes Skyrim with lots of (graphical) mods, and more).

(I don't have a VisionTek video card, but it's basically the same thing.)

Edit: some words.

Interesting, and yet, Amazon.ca is selling them as a retailer. However, all the Amazon.com entries I found were indeed from other merchants.

SAVAGES, SAVAGES, BARELY EVEN GAMERS!

This is the new one he just posted

Just imagine being able to take the tablet on the go.

The 32gb Deluxe set Wii U costs $368.95 on Amazon. Even the nice ZombiiU Deluxe Set only costs $399.99 on Newegg. Nowhere near $500.

Sure, but that VAT doesn't mean the same Wii U Bundle at $360 (around $380-$400 with US sales tax) should be selling for £299- which includes 17.5% VAT ($446) in the UK.

Damn, something I want. Well, the things I want the most at this moment are definitely not reasonable in value (eg: a few hundred dollars, damn consoles), so I guess I link one of the things I'd really love that falls into semi-reasonable levels:

This
because I'm trying to complete my Epic Collection set and the older sets (including this one) are getting hard to find.

If I'm dreaming big, a giftcard towards saving for this would be amazing!




As for the gift two . . . C'mon...gimmie.




Anyways, I wish the best of luck to everybody. I've heard so many good things about the both of you in just the few days that I've been here. Whoever wins will be really lucky people.


Oops, and forgot to mention how lovely you both look today!

Sounds like the relevant titles for you are:

• Zelda U (when it comes)
  
• Twilight Princess HD (when it comes)
  
• Wind Waker HD
  
• Hyrule Warriors
  
• and possibly Sm4sh
  
  If you don't have a Wii, that means you'd now be able to play Skyward Sword as well, and the non-HD version of Twilight Princess.
  
  It's as low as $222 on Amazon for a used (in "good" condition) Wii U console. If that sounds worth it to you go right ahead.
  
  Personally I'm going to hold out and see what they announce in regards to the NX. If they're launching a new console that will also support Zelda U and the HD remakes, then no way am I splurging money on a dead console. Though, from what was said back in March, it sounds like the NX, the 3DS, and the Wii U will coexist.

For my boyfriend it would be this or this though I don't expect to be gifted it and that's fine. As for me, those two are the same! XD I don't expect to be gifted anything over $20.

Probably either this PS3 Bundle, this 3DS XL preferably with Monster Hunter Ultimate and Etrian Odyssey IV. Or this Wii U.

I haven't used any handheld pi. I guess there are some good alternatives though.

​

​

NDS with charger. $25 - $40 (I would get the DSi) (DSlite bumpers and things tend to wearout)

A flash cart for NDS. $15 - $20 (DSTT I hear is best) (Acekard2i is great) (R4 is hard to tell the model) (DSTWO flashcart drains battery life, is overpriced, but has built in cpu and emulators for gba snes and genesis) All are compatible with 3ds, NDS, DSi.

MicroSD. $10. Samsung EVO 32gb on amazon is a good deal

The DS has a lot of great games, snes and genesis emulators work okay but not the best. GBA emulation only works with dstwo or ez-flash.

Total $50 - $70.

​

​

PSVITA w/ charger $110 - $150. Never used one, cfw is available for firmware up to 3.68. The firmware 3.69 is not hackable.

Vita Memory Card + microsd $20. Since the proprietary memory card are so expensive.

PSVITA & TV are cfw compatible up to 3.67 - 3.68, however there may be some homebrew incompatibility on these firmwares. 3.69 is not compatible yet. CFW can load PSP homebrew as well as play PS1.

Total $130 - $170

​

​

Wii U complete console $140. Used - Very good

SD card. $15 Sandisk 64gb Extreme SDXC

DS Virtual Console Game $10 From E-shop, needed to play DS on Console/Gamepad screens.

Emulates Nintendo up to DS, has an abandoned PSX emulator from the wii. Portable and Console for TV.

Total $165

​

The consoles and handhelds fluctuate in price. PSvita TV was low as $40 at one time, they are a bit inflated right now but collectors items will hold value. Finding one second hand or used for half-price is probable a used PSP is easy to find for $40 but not online.

​

​

RPI $25 - $40 RPI3b+ is what I have connected to my TV. The RPI2 is similar to RPI0 and emulates PSX but not all, as per the RPI3B+. There are many SBCs, I think the OdroidC2 and Tinkerboard and NanoPI M4 are all interesting but I have not used them.

Case + Heatsink and fan $25 - $30 There are other cases Argon One, SuperPI Retroflag, many others, some bundles heatsink and fan are necessary for the rpi3b+. The retroflag controllers are not preferred.

Power Supply $15 or official raspberry pi power supply.

MicroSD $10

Controllers $15 - $35 There are a lot of options here, recycle your PS3 or XBOX360 controller, Buy a corded Ibuffalo Snes, 8bitdo SF30, logitech, retro-bit/retrolink n64. I think only the RPI3B+ and RPI Zero W have bluetooth, else an adapter is needed.

Total $75 - $130

​

​

$50 (zero W + microsd + psu) + all the parts for building a gameboy zero

battery ~15

powerblock ~20

usb teensy ~15

controllermodule ~10

lcd and shield ~30

case ~20?

main buttons ~10?

audio amp and speaker ~10?

extra buttons and switches, wheels ~15?

Total ~$195

I am a streamer who is looking to improve my set-up over this summer. One of the things I am looking to do is separate the audio from my game system to a USB mixer I am looking to pick-up. My big tradeoff would be that no longer I'd have separate tracks on OBS Studio (where it records the audio) but with easily being able to adjust audio live better through a mixer I think it's worth it.

-
So my set-up would be Game System HDMI Out -> Capture Card HDMI-In -> Capture Card HDMI-Out -> HDMI Splitter -> HDMI Audio Converter Extractor -> USB Audio Mixer.

Essentially after the audio converter, I'd plug this in (RCA Cables) into here (L and R Tape In on the board.) Sorry if I'm not technical enough...still learning a lot. Is this correct and would it work well?

How would I be able to send the sound out to a venue's sound system and then be able to control what they can hear on it while maintaining the stream on my computer captures a different sound?

For example: When an actual match is being played I do NOT want the commentators being heard on the live PA system as it would disrupt the competitors...so at that point I'd want the sound going to the venue system to be turned off...but once the game ends I'd want them to speak to the venue about any deals showing on screen, in general getting the crowd hype, etc. How would that be possible?

Thanks for any help you can give!

This is my most expensive item. Main reason it's on there is because the kids want one. Though they got a Wii at Christmas time from their uncle, they've still been asking for this because it has Scribblenauts Unlimited. xD

1. A wii u.
   
   
2. I bought one the week they were released, and had a ton of fun with it. It was great for parties, and there were a ton of games coming out I was looking forward to. However, one night I left my apartment for a couple hours and came back to find that it, along with all of my other electronics, had gotten stolen. I haven't been able to afford replacing it, so that's why it's wound up on my wishlist.
   
   
3. Oh, yeah, of course. It's definitely a luxury item, and my life will go on without it. It's just hard having something you saved up your money for being taken from you suddenly.
   
   Lucy in the Sky with Diamonds

1 -- The Wii U Bundle

2 -- Because I love Nintendo and I skipped getting a regular Wii. I enjoy playing it at my parents' when I'm there. Also, Zelda. And Mariokart. And Smash Bros.

3 -- Probably... there are many games I have in my backlog to play, so I'd survive without it.

Lucy in the Sky with Diamonds is actually a song I'm not as fond of as everyone else seems to be. Dunno why.

A Wii-U

I want it so I can play more games cuz I love games.

and I probably wouldn't be okay with that cuz it's my Lucy in the Sky with Diamonds.

C:

> I mean nintendo seems to be the only one that knows how to make a console.

Eh? Didn't they have an initial update out of the box? Bricked some consoles iirc (pbkac) and it contained many of the online functions - internet connection (couldn't access the internet without it), NNID, eshop etc that took about 90-120 minutes. Not what you want from your new console that "works out of the box". Few noteworthy games in 2013 (I definitely remember TB going on about his Wii U collecting dust because he had nothing to play) which included cancelled multiplats like Metro, BF and Crysis. Then you get to the hardware - $335 for the 32GB version and $300 for the 8GB. The 360's 20GB release almost 9 years ago sucked then, yet Nintendo's only giving out 32GB max? What is this shit? Ffs phones have more than that. 512MB memory in 2005 wasn't that good then, 2GB was not good in 2012. 1GB of memory (DDR3 1600!) available for the devs. This isn't 2006, that is not good enough. Then you have the GPU which is worse than 2007 cards.

If that's "knowing how to make a console" then fuck me, they should give up now.

All these stories have the same source: they are completely based on the Amazon UK numbers. Hence they all have the same problem in the price drop. Only one article mentions it

> And for the people who are saying it was because of the price drop and not the Xbox One reveal, that’s not necessarily the case. There have been multiple price drops in the UK and sales never spiked on Amazon like this. So it can’t be just because of the price drop. If anything, it’s a nice combination of both.

But it hasn't happened on the American Wii U set. Or the Canadian, German, French, Japanese Amazon, etc.

(I've now done more research than all those sites combined, which is pretty pathetic.)

I'm assuming you are looking at the one for $193.92 here
I would suggest paying a little bit more and getting a $200 'refurbished' unit direct from Nintendo.
The console comes in better condition (most of these are probably new units that Nintendo took back from retailers when the Wii U went off the shelves), with all necessary cords and cables, and also includes a one year warranty from Nintendo.
In my opinion, Nintendo's refurbished consoles are the best way to buy a Wii U right now because you know exactly what you're getting and you get a great warranty package with it. If you would rather order from Amazon, the only way you can find more about what you're buying is if you contact the seller or actually order it. Amazon has a pretty good return policy so if you are missing something, I'm sure you could just send it back.

dae remember this retro gem???

Says shipping is $10.33, not bad.

This is from Amazon.jp. It says 輸入版:北米 which means imported from North America. It is double the amount of JP version though.

For future reference, the weekly noob thread above is a great place to ask these types of questions. Your question is a little confusing, as I do not know what you mean by premium and deluxe pack promotions? There is a "Basic" White Wii U w/ 8GB of memory and there is a "Deluxe" Black Wii U w/ 32 GB of memory. There is only one promotion going on besides Club Nintendo, and that is the Digital Deluxe Promotion that the OP was describing, which is a promotion available to anyone that is buying digital games on the Deluxe Wii U.

This or This or This

Why?

1 Wii U - well I collect video games and LOVE nintendo and I have been wanting to play one for a long time now.

2 Barbell - Im getting in to working out and I have dumbbells and a bench so I would like to add this to stuff I can do

3 drawing desk - I love to draw and I would like a place to do it. I have always wanted one of these. (the glass one)

Saving Private Ryan

I don't have any gift cards yet, but I am saving money, and hoping for the price drop soon. I want the wiiu and some games.

I freakin love nintendo stuff and I just got a new job and the SO moved out so I have more time to play now, but it's been too expensive for me to justify buying.

oh yea, Saving Private Ryan

How about....a WiiU?

I have one myself and I love it. I just need to get some more games for it

Dang girl
