There's so many cool looking indie games coming to WiiU, lots to look forward to in the future :)
There's nothing to be upset about here, some people got randomly selected to get something free and congrats to anyone that got lucky.
What people should be upset about is the $80 price tag for the whole game, splitting your game in half to increase the price is a cheap and shady move. The free to try aspect is cool but the overall price is ridiculous.

"Creytek and others vow full next gen support for the Genesis - Dynamic 2d pixel art and blast processing in full 480i"
Impressive visuals but it just doesn't look fun.
The color shaded auras that corresponds with the button color and the on rails system the game uses makes me think of some Indigo Prophecy styled action gameplay. Now I have to go and commit seppuku for thinking about Indigo Prophecy.
I wonder if the community for the game had the opportunity to vote on this or be part of the decision making process. I'd be upset if I threw in money only to find my platform was dropped :/
Dreamcast 2? Whatever man, we all know the only console worth waiting for is the is the Philips cd-i-nfinity. Or a Tiger console :D
Before the beginning of this gen there were experiments with pricing games for $60 instead of $50. Games like Doom 3 on the Xbox were $60 instead of $50 but came with extra content, like a making of DVD. Those were tests to see if people would pay $10 more dollars for a game and the results were good enough that all games wound up being $60 since people were more than willing to pay the price. Now, at the end of this gen, we've seen 'episodic' games, the Season Pass, the online pa...
First Killer Instinct is said to be sold in 2 $40 sets and now this MGS thing with a prologue for $30 and then the full game later for however much cash.... next gen pricing schemes are starting to look like robbery.
Well that's... not very cool at all.
If the game's good you don't need any trophies at all.
Link belongs on this list as well, he's been wearing the same outfit for generations. That's just a little grody. Octodad may be a pretty good contender as well since his flatulence surely leads to ink stains in all the wrong places.
Maybe even not so much confusion as it just being unnecessary to have Wiis on shelves any more. The entirety of the Wiis funtionality (minus GC compatibility) is already in the WiiU which makes a Wii pretty pointless. They're just better off focusing on one product, especially since WiiU sales have suffered as much as they have.
This is something I've considered doing as well, I already have a Wii U and upgrading my pc would cost around as much as getting a next gen system. Having said that, PS4 gets alot of the crazy japanese stuff and those tend to be my favorite games so I'm really just at a strange point where I don't know what to do :/
StarCraft:Ghost should be brought back for next gen. All the stuff the Blizzard wanted to do (Giant enemies, open world stealth, nuke strikes) are now way more attainable than they were in the PS2 era. Make it happen and all my money is yours Blizzard.
Waiting this long to do the math is sad. This wound up being a huge factor this gen to me considering if you bough a 20g 360 or a 40g ps3 you might as well say your console is not only inferior but barely even usable now in the later end of this gen. It's going to happen this gen as well, file sizes are growing instead shrinking for both indie devs and AAA title makers.
I also don't understand how the WiiU has caught so much flak for asking people to buy a seperate hard drive ...
I think they'll start advertising through the holidays and after, part of why they're waiting is probably to get wiis off shelves before launching a campaign and having everyone still be confused.
So, to let MS know your upset just buy a XBO and frown at the kinect for the entirety of its life cycle.
Poor Knuckles, he always has to sit it out in the corner.
I was thinking the same thing. A unified system is coming, it just needs to come quickly.
