You take the lead as your team approaches a clean new area, free of color and chaos. With a smirk, you take it all in ~ you'll soon change that. Two teammates begin spraying down walls, floors, ceilings and every other imaginable surface with ink, claiming this territory as your own with a vivid wash of your colors. You and another fighter scan the area for enemies. The opposition never sees you as you sneak up and douse them in an ink bath they'll never forget. This turf is all yours ~ it's time to move on and paint the whole world in your team's colors.Get messy with Splatoon, a fun-filled third-person action shooter that challenges you to cover levels, and enemies, with a brilliant spray of colorful ink. Take on the role of an Inkling, a squid-like fighter ready to cover yourself and everything around you with your team's hues. Cover the terrain around you in ink to claim it, and spray walls to gain access to hard-to-reach areas. Earn high-powered super weapons by soaking your turf in ink, so you can cover your enemies in color or spray more territory. Put on your thinking cap to dream up devastating strategies, but don't forget to keep an eye on your turf ~ too much attention on the other team may lead to a redecoration of your own territory. Easily refill your tank or hide from enemies with just a touch of a button, or transform into a squid and dive into ink for a blazing-fast speed boost. Attack your own way with a multitude of control options thanks to the Wii U GamePad controller, including gyroscopic controls that let you look around, aim and more with precision. Band together with three friends and get online to take on other teams in four-on-four matches that will have you perched on the edge of your seat. A color-soaked battle awaits ~ are you ready to claim your turf?

Solid game. I am not a big first person shooter fan, but my kids wanted this game after hearing about it and I am not disappointed. Even I can get into this game. Not just a "shoot 'em up" deal.

Enemies will fall at the wave of your hand. Goals will be grasped with the reach of your arm. Sports tournaments will be won by the twist of your wrist. Your gaming destiny is clear when you're armed with the Wii Remote Plus controller. Hyper-sensitive to recognize your slightest movements, the Remote Plus eliminates buttons and joysticks and replaces them with the natural, fluid gestures of your body.A controller has never been so simple to use. Integrated MotionPlus technology intuitively recognizes every swing, twist, swish and blow and reproduces it on the screen with unbelievable accuracy, taking your mind off the buttons and into the battle, tournament or race. With this Mario-inspired controller, you get the red and blue colors of the classic character to add a bit of nostalgia to all your games. When your controller no longer controls you, the reins are yours to take ~ steer your way to success.

Awesome fun for family

Verified Purchase:Yes
Bought the WiiU after my PS3 burnt out. Assembly was very easy, although initial setup took a while (however, I don't have a PS4 or XboxOne, so I don't know if setup time like this is normal with new consoles). Plays well. The WiiU controller with the screen is a fun, unique addition to gaming, especially with NintendoLand. Old retro-console games for purchase has a very small selection, but it took the original Wii a while to boost their titles, too, so it is ok for now. The ability to buy new titles to be downloaded online is also nice because I don't have to drive 20-30 minutes just to buy a videogame. All-in-all, I think we made a great choice to purchase this console.

Movie, of course, was in good condition. Good movie. Very morbid concept. But it was a thrilling movie and opens up the doors for the next "X-Men" adventure, as evinced by the end of the movie...(hint hint)

Good initial product. A few steps left
on April 7, 2014

Verified Purchase:Yes
I have been eager to try a streaming dongle for a while. The Chromecast was the first one that I wanted to spring for, being that I am an Android fan. I picked this baby up and set it up immediately. As with most modern computer-oriented setups, the initialing process was pretty simple. Here comes the problem...the apps available for use to stream from your device to the Chromecast are plenty, but none for pulling movies to stream from your own library. Apparently buying the Chromecast is not enough. They want you to pay for other apps that will let you stream from your library...or you could just buy movies from Google apps. The one I ended up with was a cloud service that you pretty much have to upload into in order to stream effectively.
To conclude my assessment, I like the technology but do not agree with the inability to watch the movies you have bought or downloaded onto your personal device.

Insignia may have a flip-flop reputation with certain products, being that they are always the cheaper option because they are best-buy brand products. But this cable is excellent. High speed and no glitches does a good cable make!

Cheap GPS, but do they lie about features?

Posted by: richmondhillian

Verified Purchase:Yes
This product is great for the price. However, the box says free lifetime map updates and I have downloaded the application on my computer and it it asking me to pay for it. Since I have friends that live out in the country this can be an issue. I don't have a problem paying for a map update, but they shouldn't tell you something is free if it isn't. Just sayin'. Aside from that though it is a typical GPS system. Sometimes it takes a while to recalculate, but that's about it.

Lightning took out HDMI inputs on my LG tv. Is there any other device that can hook up to stream netflix?
Not with your Chromecast. You're out of luck.
