not sure why you can't it's either a visa or mastercard

The gamestop I placed the preorder with still did not call me yet. I will go there tomorrow and hope I am not screwed.

I am absolutely loving New Super Mario Bros. U! I've been playing it exclusively on the gamepad down in my basement (no router issues amazingly) and it's silky smooth and beautiful. Finally found a way that I can play console games while the family is asleep. It's incredibly cool too that you can plug headphones into the controller as well. Nintendo literally thought of everything

Are purchases made in the eShop now associated to your account or is it still only associated with the console? Anyone know? Thanks.

They are terrible. I bought the official ones with 2 stylus. The first one left a dirty smear when i removed the numbered sticker on the front. The second was already scratched up as they dont come with 2 protective covers like phone ones do, just one to stick and the front has a sticker on it.

REALLY disappointed, 10$ down the drain.

Well I must say that I am quite happy with the purchase. Was contemplating playing zombiu or returning it, but decided to just open it up and give it a shot. I am loving it so far. I went the survival mode option (once you die, game over), and found myself afraid to see whats around the corner. I died after about an hour On a side note, I ordered a cheap screen protector a few weeks ago in anticipation of the release. It works fine but will eventually replace with a higher end one. I paid like only $2 for it.

Just curious, anyone else got a dead or stuck pixel on their gamepad? I just noticed mine had one....

the gamepad is cool but in nba 2k13 its a pain in the ass when im trying to drive to the basket because my hand is too far seperated

pro controller fixes this though

KratosGOW2525, by default the audio comes from the TV and the gamepad. There is a volume control on the gamepad though and a headphone jack, so you can either mute the TV, mute the gamepad or both. Or do what I do: Play just on the gamepad with headphones =) Very customizable!

when u play wii games the thing takes you too a wii menu just like the old system

my guess is that is what the large update was for

I LOVE this thing! I've been playing all night. Like many of you, it won't connect to my wifi so I have to try to understand the long-ass process to manually do it. I just skipped it for now because I wanted to get to the games. One this that makes me think it'll be a while before I get my console connected to the web: it says knowing what kind of security (ssid?) is key. I have no idea what kind I have. I'll have to mess with it tomorrow, and download the long ass update once I get it connected.

I've jut been playing Mario and Nintendoland so far, without online hooked up...but I effing love this. It is definitely next generation. Not current. It feels new. Completely fresh. I am so glad I preordered.

Can you do this with every game?

only thing i ever seen it done with is mario so who knows. Even nintendo showed it off with mario.

Your ssid is the name of the network you have, it probably has to do with the security you have set up, such as wep, wpa2 and so on.

Some of these other security features sometimes need extra steps in the Wii U network setup so it can properly connect.

I guess that's what I meant. I don't know if I have wep, wpa2, etc
