I was too busy at work for this and forgot all about it. I had no chance in the morning to even get to a computer, and I was at work till after it was already gone. I really just dont like limited run games. This should have been a preorder situation. Having to be at a computer for a short window during a work day is just garbage. As a full set wii u owner this crap sucks. The preorder system is so much better. I was ready to preorder this the second they announced it, but now have to overpay because it releases on a work day.
You can still get it in the mega bundle on their site if that interests you
I got a best offer of 62.50 shipped accepted
so about 15 more than retail plus shipping. I didnt want to worry about this game for my set. Just bit the bullet. Oh well, not the worst game to get for a regular retail priced game.

Man, that's just silly. The person reselling that, after eBay takes their cut, is making about six dollars profit. That's assuming they paid the same shipping and tax as me for their copy from LRG. eBay is making more money off that transaction than they are.
I'll never understand why people resell stuff at so low of a margin. Is it really worth the time, effort, and making yourself available in the window they sell the game? All for $6? Just let someone who wants the game pay retail for it. They're making you pay $15 extra so that they can get $6 extra. Seems so wasteful.

Yea, they probably thought it would sell out a tad faster. This is one of those games that will take awhile to be worth selling, but probably wont go down in value below what it cost.
Haha. Picked up a copy of "Monster High New Ghoul in School" at Walmart on clearance. $3 bucks. They also had 1st release Lego City undercover for $11. I passed on that.
I think i spent 10 on monster high a couple years ago. My walmarts dont have games for wii u anymore. So finds like that arent going to happen here. I think that one was a later release so makes sense to have some stragglers on clearance

Haha that's crazy. I remember selling a couple of LEGO City for 60 pretty easily when it dried up a bit before they re-released it.
Five Below has Star Fox Zero/Guard box bundle for the Wii U for only $4 (and a lot of them). It was in the $5 section, but got ringed up $4. Don't think it can get cheaper than that.

Oh man, I haven't thought about that since it happened. Dark times of me hanging out by Family Video waiting to see if they'd put their rental copy on sale, and then it got re-released and I realized I didn't want it that bad anyway

That's crazy. I wasn't aware of the hype around that title back then. There's about 8 first print copies there now!
I remember seeing a Hello Kitty Cruisers at Family Video for rental. Then it disappeared one day and I was disappointed. Lol
Seems like Wii U prices have tanked since all the hype during 2016-17.
final note, Axiom Verge arrived today! I remember when this would just not be released years ago. Now we know why.

Yeah I bought most of my games in lots or liquidation sales but never thought we'd be seeing prices quite this low like Star fox for 5 bucks or guitar hero live set for 10. Even harder to find games have really fallen although a select few still hold a notable value.
Five Below has Star Fox Zero/Guard box bundle for the Wii U for only $4 (and a lot of them). It was in the $5 section, but got ringed up $4. Don't think it can get cheaper than that.
It can! Well, did. I got a couple dozen sealed copies for $2 each plus tax when GameStop clearanced them out. Probably sometime in 2017.
I think it's safe to say we won't be seeing another Star Fox game for a long time, not after it's poor showing on Wii U.
If they just took away the 2 screen weird control non sense it would have been great. What was he thinking. So awkward, and unnecessary. If you could just turn it off it would solve everything. But No. Nintendo has to be all arrogant about it.
I think the Walker Mode controls sum the game up fairly well. Why did they feel the need to use every button / stick on the controller plus the gyroscope? It makes the game harder and more confusing than it should be. It's not impossible to get accustomed to, just nowhere near as beautifully simple as in Star Fox 2.
If there was a Wii U F-Zero, they probably would have included Gamepad gyroscope functionality in that as well.
I don't mind motion controls when they are warranted or can be customized but I hate when they push them on you. I used to hate playing DKC Returns for Wii for extended periods of time because you HAD to shake the controller to roll.

samesies. That aspect of the game turned me off totally. I'd be fine if it was optional (IE: you could just map that to a button).

I think most of us probably thought it was fun at first, but it got old fast, and it makes it very difficult to go back to the game again years later.

The worst was going for the gold medals in the speed run mode. Some of those levels you have to play over and over and are essentially rolling the entire time. I really wish they would have at least given the option for the classic controller.

So when are they gonna ship these out? I thought they were packed and ready to go?
Hopefully soon. I hate how slow LRG can be sometimes.

There is an Axiom Verge Wii U selling Buy it Now for $54 including shipping. Is he taking a loss?
Probably pretty close to breaking even, if not making a dollar or 2. With tax and shipping my 2 copies cost 91.50.

My Axiom Verge arrived today. Will it be the last game on the system?
Nah. We'll be seeing Just Dance until around 3030.

Not likely, unless you mean the last GOOD game.
