When your Wii U breaks/gets stolen you now have no Pikmin 3
thanks!
and I hope you reach platinum somehow.
Will this be in the form of a code? I already have those games and would rather just sell it.
the "no account" excuse is getting kinda tiresome. It's not as good as the other two options out there, but the nintendo account system works.
my WiiU broke, I got a new one, and I managed to get my NNiD relinked and all my digital content back with a phone call.
It's obnoxious and outdated, I agree, but it's not impossible as some of you guys make it sound.
Woah, best buy is also offering a $10 preorder bonus gas card (it's a regular $10 prepaid card).
So $38 for two games after GCU, so bought.
Anyone in the UK want to get in on the Wii U, The MK8 bundle can be had for £199 from Tesco using code TDX-JGCV

So you're basically gonna get a brand new Wii U, Mario Kart 8 and another game for under £200. BARGAIN!
Nope, it's still garbage. Digital purchases should not be tied to hardware, period. People need to stop defending Nintendo over this.
Also it's a *lot* harder to get your content back when your hardware is lost or stolen (less likely to happen with a Wii U, but very likely with a 3DS).

Nope, NA only gets SMBU, Pikmin 3, Wii Party U, and Wind Waker HD.

Preposterous situation.Isn't that the same as when his disc breaks/get stolen?
Can I share or play my digital my games anywhere like with Steam, PSN, Ios, Google, and XBL? Can I easily recover my games on my own? No. It is not adequate and It'll never me tiresome until it's fixed.the "no account" excuse is getting kinda tiresome.

But they aren't, they're tied to an account?

Wow, that's really quite amazing. How are you viewing all of your purchases? I'm looking at my purchase list on both systems and only things after the NNID update on the 3DS are viewable.Purchases are not tied to hardware. I can see all my purchases from both my 3DS and Wii U on either system. The system is definitely capable of recognizing purchases made on other hardware.
Problem is that there's no public-facing utility to transfer accounts between different 3DSs or Wii Us to redownload purchases.

Exactly, so because of their crazy system, it IS tied to the hardware even though it technically should not be.Purchases are not tied to hardware.

But they aren't, they're tied to an account?
But when accounts are tied to hardware, though?
Nope, that's what everyone thought at first when Nintendo announced the NNID, but in reality it does nothing because your account is also tied to the hardware. You can't login to your account on another console without getting it transferred first. Your account can only be tied to a single Wii U and a single 3DS.
Yup. Glad i held off on buying Pikmin 3.Mario Kart 8, now with free Pikmin 3. This is like second Christmas!
If you buy the game at retail or on the eShop, and register it on Club Nintendo, you can get a free game from the eShop! Bundle and LE copies included! Both Europe and NA confirmed too!
Games for Europe.
Games for NA :
- Pikmin 3
- New Super Mario Bros. U
- The Legend of Zelda: Wind Waker HD
- Wii Party U
ps: can a mod please edit the title? Sorry about that...
NoA actually wants you to play Mario Kart.I am VEXED that NA isn't offering Monster Hunter despite being the target audience for the game.
Fucking awesome!
Zelda or W101? On one hand I can get W101 for free but it is only $20 and on the other Zelda has the higher cost and I already played before but having it free would be great.
Think I'll get zelda and just buy W101.
Damn... but I already preordered a physical copy. Might double dip just so I can get a free game.
I highly recommend Pikmin 3 over NSMBU for those in NA. A much better game in every respect.
Honestly they're completely different games. I have more love for Pikmin, but if people are craving a platformer NSMBU is still a fantastic game.
Also, almost forgot: Nintendo seems to be nice enough to allow me to hold off registering long enough that the coins will go into the next Club Nintendo year. Hooray!
