I finish exams two weeks today. Going to run straight out and buy myself one :)

Am I right in thinking that the free game with MK8 runs until the end of July?

Edit: Also, is there any word of FZero on it? FZero GX is still the best racing game I've ever played.

There's a widely held view that Fast Racing Neo is essentially.....FZero.

We may see it at E3.

No word of one yet. It's not a franchise that sells very well unfortunately(doesn't appeal to the casual crowd), but I'm sure Nintendo knows there is a lot of respect for F-Zero so there is still a chance.

Mario was supposed to be good but I didn't like it, I've tried to get into it a few times but it's just not for me. As for Wind Waker, I preferred the gamecube version, the pastel colours just suited it better and the Wii U version just didn't seem right.

You could try the demo of Wonderful 101, it's one of those love or hate games (I didn't like it).

Mario Kart 8 is very good though so enjoy it :)

I'm kind of the same so far, I want to like it and I can see it's amazing... but I want Mario64 2 and this isn't that so it leaves me disappointed. :(

Same. 3D is great for what it is, and it is very good - it just isn't a Mario 64. I don't want bite-sized linear levels. What happened the the exploration and camera control? Even Galaxy 1 & 2, which are amazing, lacked in this regard. As a genre, the platform/adventure game has pretty much ceased to exist. We used to have Mario 64, Donkey Kong 64, Banjo Tooie/Kazooie, Conkur's etc etc - bring them back goddamnit!!
 
I have to say I'm so glad I bought a Wii U, it's like a breath of fresh air and the kids live watching and playing where as I can only use my PS4/Xbone when they are in bed as most games arn't child friendly. The Wii U games are just pure fun, can't wait to see what nintendo announce at E3.

I completed DK but in the course of playing it I accidentally taught my kids some new words.

Yeah that was one tough game to complete.. I swear that game was pixel perfection jumping at times..

MK8 on the gamepad in bed, sweet as mentioned. OP has got a great little machine. Lets hope MK8 has done the machine justice and it starts to sell a little better - although its still not a terrible seller in the whole scheme if you ask me.
 
Really impressed with mine. The console is really nice and the controller is useful, Ive used it without the tv on a few times, its brilliant.
