The Nintendo WiiU is now here! To our amazement, one of our resident gaming families had not previously heard of the new console or the features it offers. In this Family Gamer TV, we put them in control of Nintendo Land and New Super Mario Bros U to gauge their reaction.
We take a look at the new WiiU controller and how the family react to it, including the new role it can play in assisted multiplayer. We also discuss the Wii U's backwards compatibility and handy re-use of all those Wii Remotes that have been collected during the Wii's reign in the household.

With so many different perspectives it can be hard to know where to start - a little like walking into a crowded pub. Sorry about that. But so far we've not found a way to streamline our review output - there's basically too much of it. So, rather than dilute things for newcomers we have decided to live with the hubbub while helping new readers find the columnists they will enjoy. |
