XBL gold 12 months for $44.99 at Best Buy.

Perfect, thanks. Was hoping one of these would hit before my renewal on 1/2/14...pair it with the $15 reward zone coupon, and I'm in for another year at 30 bucks. My kind of deal.

Don't have my ps3 anymore but saw this on another site -

One of if not my favorite racer from last gen.

[Wilk5280]

Yep it's a great game. One that I miss after having sold off my 360.

[pk500]

Horizon, DIRT 3 and F1 2013 are the best racing games of the last gen, hands down.

Between the 22nd and the 28th, Best Buy has a deal where if you buy the Mario and Luigi Wii U bundle for $299 you get ZombiU and a $25 gift card for free.

That's damn tempting.

[Wilk5280]

Yep. After having recently pulled the Wii back out we're kind of jonesing for a Wii-U

Yeah, Target won't match BB so it seems I purchased the bundle a couple days too early. Still, I couldn't be happier with the Wii U. Such a nice change of pace. The kids absolutely love Nintendoland (can be bought for $15 pre-owned at Game Stop), and Mario 3D Land is incredible. My daughter is really in to dance games, and Just Dance 2014 works very well on the Wii U. I really want to get some more time in with Zelda, but all I've played thus far is the demo. But, it looks nothing short of beautiful.

You are able to try out the Wii Sports Club games for 24 hours. Surprisingly, golf is my favorite. Putting the gamepad on the ground and seeing the ball is really cool. Tennis is nice as well, albeit it's relatively the same, but in HD.

Zelda is beautiful and brilliant!

Lego City Undercover is my boys favorite and I made it to the 3rd stage on Donkey Kong Crash Course (Nintendoland...and super fun/challenging)

Madden 13 is $9.99 right now on Amazon....Fifa 13 is $12 or so....Mass Effect 3 is $12.....terrific value!

The WiiU is the best kept secret in gaming...playing on the gamepad is sublime!

[Rodster]

The Wii U needs to be priced at $199 with a couple of games. It's basically the Gamecube all over again with Nintendo pretty much only making games for it. I'd get one at that price and for the Nintendo games.

I agree. I do miss the Nin games a lot. They were always my favorites, but I'm just not willing to pay the price they've set to dabble in the couple of great titles I know I'd love.

[sportdan30]

Yeah I agree the Wii U is a bit over priced but it's made slightly more justified by a pack in game. Seeing my son excited about playing tennis online along with multi-player Mario has been a great past couple days of gaming. It's been a great change of pace.

A price drop will probably occur in the late spring or summer. Perhaps depends on how the sales this December are.

With the PS4 and XBONE being such similar experiences in regard to the games I would play on either one, the Wii-U seems like the logical change of pace console. Especially now that my 7 year old daughter has shown interest in some console gaming. Up to now the phones and tablet have done the trick for her.

I bumped the Wii U thread back to the first page. I don't expect it'll get many postings, but whatever.
