I will be on my way to the eurogamer expo shortly, can't guarantee on getting any footage of Legends because it's in the nintendo section and nintendo are anal with recording, but I'll get some opinions. Stay tuned.

Eye of the Tiger, Woo Hoo song, Jules Verne-like world with James Bond story in my Legends?!

I'm really happy they got rid of mosquito levels - not because they were not fun, they were fun, but because they were overdosed. For example, R2 got roughly the same proportion of unusual sections to normal sections, but undepending on your general opinion on them, they were really more varied and integrated into the main game.

Working Sssam in 2D game is possible, but he'd require a giant number of changes. Think 2D Mario vs. 3D Mario.

I really love the Moskito levels to be honest. These are the only levels I play with others actually, because they just can't play the normal levels without getting bubblized every 5 seconds

I agree.

We still get bubblised in those levels anyway.
I have to admit that they are quite fun, but they get pretty boring when you have them in such a large volume (to the point where some of the hidden cage sections feature them), that you get put off by them.

That's roughly inverse in my case, in regular mosquito levels everybody gets bubblized every 4 seconds and normal levels are, huh, normal.

With me I get bubblized every 3 seconds

(In the Moskito levels).

Instant change of opinion, I suppose?

I got to play it in the end, it's ok but i got paired with a guy that had the gamepad and didn't really know what he was doing, not sure what to think of that experience. Demo was the same as the e3 one so nothing really new there.

I don't even know what your talking about :lololol:

So I guess you didn't spot anything interesting, right? Did you notice the announced removal of slowdown after normal air attack?

Also, I repeat my question: how would you record Wii U gameplay after getting one? Is there anything that accepts HDMI as input, or do I have to settle for YPbPr if I want to record things and not become a journalist?

Sorry for the off-topicness, but I was right in my calculations:

http://www.fnac.pt/Wii-U-Pack-Premium-3 ... PID=130693

*Sigh*

That must really be one heck of a bummer.
The prices here are:
Basic 8GB Pack - £248.00
Premium 32GB Pack - £329.00

Surprisingly Polish prices are not that higher than German ones; I may even order from Polish retailer at the end if this saves me on shipping. The only problem is that in Poland the standard for pre-ordering is that shop pulls your cash from account at the moment of order, and as I put some of my savings on a time deposit I don't have all the cash yet.

On the HDMI recording: I learned it's possible if you buy a $200 recording thing, but the problem is that the console must not HDCPify games. 360s never do that, but in case of PS3 this depends on game. So we kind of have no idea about Wii U HDMI recording...

I probably won't be able to buy a Wii U...but as soon I saw they were coming out with a new Wii I was like WOW!

@Stan I think it's a bit too early to even think about suitable capture devices for the WiiU, hell I didn't even get to try and play it with the gamepad as I said earlier on so I don't have a clue on what it's like on that. With an inexperienced Rayman player, the game is a bit of a nightmare (apart from Castle rock where we somehow managed to do the level without dying!!). On the other hand I've heard talk from other Eurogamer attendees where it's possible to play the Murfy levels single player and that on the gamepad it switched to Rayman, but they didn't really go into detail so who knows.

By the time the day was almost over we, a group of 6 people including me, were about to go into the WiiU section again but it was closed. I did queue by myself earlier in the day, but the queue wasn't as bad as it looked, not much more than half hour I think. When I got in, I was given the freedom to choose what games we could try so I just went straight to Legends and was done with it. I think maybe watching other people play it really badly in front of me was more frustrating than actually playing it. There was Nintendo Land and NSMBU but I weren't personally that fussed with those.

I'm hoping that to make up for that, the Wii U will show up at MCM expo at the end of October.

What are these shops that you are talking about?

Edit: I know it's little difference, but 96,95€ in GAME
