Couldn't agree more. Yorda, Lightning, Yuna would all be great additions. Gravity Rush's Kat's confirmed for free post-launch DLC, though, which is nice.

By "many got their start on Xbox," you mean precisely "one character got his start on an Xbox/PC simultaneous release before 10 months later having the definitive version with several exclusive DLC's being launched on PlayStation," right?

Ahem, I forgot a Journeyman.

I love the multiplayer, but I really wish they'd rejected Dante and ponied up for Crash, Spyro, and Lightning (sorry Cloud, roster's a sausagefest). And Ico/Yorda/Wander/LastGuardianKid, Robbit, Nathan Hale, Big Boss, and the Lemmings are kind of a huge oversight, too. Kat and Emmett are a great start, though, so I'm…

It does, thanks!

Wii U related! If anyone knows the answer to this I'd really appreciate it - can I turn on my Wii U with my Pro Controller and not have the Wii U tablet turn and stay on at the same time? I don't want it running anytime I can be using the Pro instead.

Nintendo's consoles could be telescopically worse than their previous gen and still jump off shelves - people buy them for nostalgia. Folks are content playing the same game they did twenty years ago. Now if you'll excuse me, I've some fireballs to throw.

I'm going to give this a try. I've used two routers to no avail - I'll mess around with some more settings if that doesn't do the trick - there's a thread on the official forums about how you need to be on channel 1 or 11 for wifi broadcast.

Not only is this a formless, lame sketch, the funniest part is when Thor is called "Point Break" by Stark. Which is a line from the movie. Which means it's not parody, it's plagiarism.

This is one of two games I purchased for the Wii U (the other being NSMBU), and I'd be online were it not for this console's insatiable hate for routers. I'd be number 561.

I'd love to start posting on Miiverse, but unfortunately it's been like 36 hours (and two wireless routers) of being unable to get past the second connection step, even after manually entering my gateway, etc. I've never had a wireless device this finicky about connecting to Wi-Fi signals that it recognizes.

Any idea what's up with my connection? Why I can connect to a device but not the internet?

I was wondering about this myself - it does seem underpowered, but more than that, just old. Also, if anyone knows why - after the Kotaku Internet Connection Troubleshooting article - my Wii U connection steps will recognize my device, but won't connect to the internet for some reason, I'd love to have your input.

Yes. It gets me to the next step "Network Device," but won't connect to the Internet. Please let me know if you get it connected.

There's that Zelda 2 Adventure Time title.

PlayStation All-Stars, Hitman, Sine Mora, and the entire Wii U launch catalog (the 18th).

Yes and yes.

Oh good, the 20th. There are only about 5498609485609845985490896059084 games coming out that week.

DLC advertised two months before the game comes out, which means it was completed before certification and stripped from the finished product? Good work, Capcom, I am no longer interested in your game. As far as mid-January purchases go, Ni No Kuni it is.

The only thing I hope is that they drop the stupid "jam X / A to run." It doesn't feel like I'm controlling a badass, it feels like I'm inflating a fucking tire with a bicycle pump.
