Residents of the United States have one day left to join the Infendo contest to name my Wii U folders! The winner will have a signed copy of Final Reverie by Essel Pratt sent to them in the mail.

Just keep...
PSA: Gamecube Controller Adapter For Wii U Only Works With Smash Bros

Retro Redux: NES Sidequest – DuckTales Remastered
Those of you who’ve been following the NES Quest from the beginning know that I started it by playing DuckTales. At that time, I already had an original NES copy of the game plus DuckTales Remastered downloaded to my Wii U. Yeah, I’m crazy that way: I often download games, only to hold off on playing them until months later. Well, what better time to play DuckTales Remastered than righ...

Retro Redux: NES Quest – Updates, New Vote, and Refresher
The NES Quest continues to move forward, albeit at a rather slow pace. I tried to juggle several games over this last week: Hyrule Warriors, Professor Layton vs. Phoenix Wright, Donkey Kong Country: Tropical Freeze, and StarTropics. I’d say I’ve done an alright job, especially considering the other demands of life, which continue to bombard. So let’s not waste any time! Updates O...

Wii U system update finally adds folders
An update that I feel is long overdue for the Wii U is now available. It adds the ability to create folders on the home screen, where you can store the games and apps downloaded to your system. This is a function the Nintendo 3DS has had for a while, hence my opinion that Nintendo has been a little slow on getting the Wii U equivalent up and running. Oh well. It’s here now. And at least the ...
