I'm not talking about resistive vs capacitive. It's dragging your finger around a screen vs dragging a stylus around a screen, even on a capacitive screen I don't like having to use my finger to draw/trace lines. It made the Ouendan clone unplayable, which was a shame because any new Ouendan would have been good.

You really are talking about resistive vs capacitive.

You can easily use a stylus on the capacitive screen if you feel the need. Capacitive stylus tends to have quite a big "nib" but much smaller than a finger.

I use one for certain apps for firing sound fx etc.

I dislike stylus generally as i find them a faff... thats why I like the gamepad as "best of worst case resistive scenario" as 95% of time it registers a finger press pretty well. And when it gets tricky I can always pull out the dreaded stylus :)

The price cut has had arguably more impact given the sales spike started two weeks before the game was released, and the most recent figures show the system still doing well despite the large drop off in SS sales. Vita sales aren't tied to a single game as such, the price drop has just put it within more people's reach. The Vita and 3DSXL are much closer in pricing in Japan than before.

Not that any of this has anything to do with Nintendo, I just dislike seeing someone use an example to make a point and then get it wrong. ;)

It...wasn't wrong though? I just failed to mention the price cut. Which can count as even more awesome Sony news.

Okay, I'll buy a stylus to buy this 69p game I don't like.

the tone of that edge article can kiss my balls.

The console remains significantly behind Xbox 360 and PS3 sales, but it’s almost as if releasing more, and better, games for the Wii U – rather than letting it languish for months without bolstering a lacklustre launch line-up – is a strategy worth pursuing.

Scott can't handle the truth! :lol:

Cheer up man, seeing how the Vita was doing a while ago, and how it's been seemingly turned around in Japan right now, there's still every chance for the Wii U to become something. Anything. Besides, aren't we by Nintendo's own definition still in the launch window :P

Lego city undercover came in the all formats chart at number 8. An excellant start for a game that thoroughly deserves it. Seem's like it was the game a lot of people bought with the HMV offer. See Nintendo you can sell WiiU's when the price is better and the games arrive.

Can someone explain what this creepy fan base My Little Pony has is all about? Is it just people who realised they appreciate powerful, emotive storytelling after seeing Dom's anguish in Gears of War 2 looking for something of the same quality?

I went into a Hot Topic shop in Texas and it was full of older teens wearing My Little Pony stuff. That said, I was in for the Adventure Time shirts, because I am a 30 year old man-child.

Also, that Edge article doesn't seem very Edge-like. Is Ben Maxwell in a huff?

I'm grateful for MLP fans, makes Sonic fans look slightly more sane in comparison.

I mean, theres a thread I saw once of people wanting to buy mere vagina toys (that come in multiple colours of your choice).

edit: don't ask me how I know

edit 2: somethingawful youtube

edit 3: oh god

Posted this in the Wii Homebrew thread but it fits here too (Re: will USB loader work on original Wii when you do a Wii to Wii U system transfer):

The fuck is this shit?

So I took the plunge, and did the transfer. I took precautions (backed up NAND, backed up SD card, updated shop channel with DOP-Shop not System Update), and after the transfer found all my homebrew and USB Loader worked just fine. Phew.

However.

I now have to download EVERY SINGLE VC AND WIIWARE GAME AGAIN?! Even though they're on my SD card?! What? That's like nearly 80 games. 80. Picking each one from a menu then setting it to download. Jesus.

I thought it let you just use the same SD card from the Wii and all was well? Seems not.

What did you do about locked saves for your retail games? Surely you'd want to keep them on the Wii?
