I got a Wii because of Virtual Console. Then lots of interesting stuff came out for it from all different developers. I've got two games I want for Wii-U, but there's no other feature about it that I really want. I think if they go to a new system and put the Wii-U on sale though, I'll likely get one.
It varies. I usually carry it over there on Sunday and it stays there through Monday and then I bring it home. This week I left it there all week long. I was setting up a station at home to play some in the wee hours after work, but so far I haven't had enough time to get to it. I get home, make some grub, check the nets, and then it's like bed time.
Why more LEGO games don't have online co-op is beyond me, but I guess most people play it couch co-op. You know, kids with their parents. I'd love to play some Lego Star Wars if I can just find the time. I was trying to play some Silent Hill Book of Memories with daftman, but that was kinda touch and go. I get over to my friend Mark's place and we're co-oping some shooter like all day long. I don't know what to do about it really except get a day time job so I have time during the week. That would be really cool. I've got to work on that.
Co-op is such the irresitable element for me. I will plan to play all sorts of stuff on the weekend, but if my friend Mark says, "let's play Borderlands", I'm dropping everything to do that.
I stopped using backloggery as a way to get me to complete games so much as a place to keep track of my games. It's now my online database that I check to make sure I don't buy the same game twice. It's also cool to record your progress in the games you're playing there.
I rarely read reviews or user reviews to pick a game to play. I'll read them just for fun or to see what someone else thought, but I won't pick any game based on a review. I look for certain kinds of game content and certain developers who's games I've liked in the past to lead me. Like I want to play Fantasy Life because it's a Level 5 game and I want to play Codename STEAM because it's by Intelligent Systems who did the Advance Wars games. I also like games that are compared to some of my favorites, like if you say any game is like Valkyria Chronicles, I'll very likely buy it no matter what the Metacritic score is.
Yea, he did that. It's not exactly Into the Wild is it.
Any reference or similarity to Etrian Odyssey gets my attention.
I've had bad luck at Goodwill lately. I'll go over there every so often just to check though.
Can Nintendo survive on just their core titles? I really want more reasons to get a Wii-U. Right now I have only two, Pikmin 3 and Wind Waker HD.
Every detail of that game was attended too. Absolutely amazing craft.
Sometimes having less is a good thing. I'm reading Thoreau's Walden right now and it's all about that.
