I got my Wii U this morning and have been enjoying it all day long. From Miiverse to New Super Mario Bros. U and Nintendo Land to the very cool way you see the Pikmin transferring your files from Wii to Wii U…it’s all very smooth, fun, and impressive.<\/p>\n
What else should I comment on? HD Miis look amazing. Before you think it’s a silly thing to highlight, I think you just have to see them move around for yourself on your own 1080p television. They have a great crispness and shine to them. I love it.<\/p>\n
The console’s interface is also a blast to navigate around. It’s a fairly simple design, but man is it effective and clean. I really enjoy the ease of social communication, too, via written text messages and drawings.<\/p>\n
Adding friends and finding them is easy, accessing the web is fast, and the keyboard (which I’m using now) is tight.<\/p>\n
The first mega download, however, sure took a good half hour to complete. The games and applications themselves are pretty quick to load though.<\/p>\n
Wii U is fairly quiet, too, and no…sadly it does not light up like its presecessor, but it stikk is an attractive console. Truthfully, I do miss when video game machines looked as such (Nintendo 64 still is my favorite aesthetically), but what Nintendo designed here really can become a part of anyone’s entertainment center.<\/p>\n
The Wii U GamePad is brilliant, too, and is to consoles what a touch screen was to cell phones. Ladies and gentleman, this is our first “Smart Console”. And these impressions come before TVii has even arrived. By the way, the farthest I was able to go in my house was 45 feet from the console, with the Wii U GamePad, and have it still function as long as I stopped moving. It’ll go through a couple walls, but most importantly, it goes everywhere I need it to go.<\/p>\n
Yes, I feel it. Wii U is going to be a major player in the 8th gen console war. Look for PaulGaleNetwork and add me as a friend if you want. See you all, online!<\/p>\n","protected":false},"excerpt":{"rendered":"
