I'm kinda hesitant. I mean, Retaliation is by far my favorite DLC... I also own the game already...

Maybe someone on that frontier can tell me how it is?

If you liked the game before Retaliation and don't mind spending 6-10 trying to kill guardians without a piercing mod, then the game is pretty good.  The biggest issue for me is that the do everything button is labelled as the A button, just like the XBox, but is in a different spot.  A lot of Console jumpers are having issues with the A button switch on mutliple games.

I'm interested to see how the controller screen is used in multiplayer!

I'm wondering the same thing.

It shows the score, current wave#, and has push to talk buttons.

Or, at player behest, it can show the actual game, and you can play without a TV. Basic stuff.

Mass Effect 3 MP on the game pad controller? Woooah, I gotta get me a Wii U.

lol @ wii u ME3 MP'ers. Why would anyone buy ME3 on a platform where they can't have ME1 and 2?

If that's the biggest issue, then it sounds like a worthy purchase if I ever get a WiiU. Thanks.

Still gonna miss my Vorcha Hunter (no, I'm not kidding), but I'd still have my Slayer... eventually.

I didn't kow that.  After 45 minutes, I got tired of punching the air and went back to play ME3 on the XBox or Mario. So I guess I never learned that .

What's WiiU?

It's got other issues, that aren't necessarily ME3 related.  For one, no Nintendo made software will connect to the internet over a WPA encrytpted wifi network, which makes a lot of the features kind of useless.  The community is really, really small. Most of the games out on it right now, ME3 included, are 3rd party ports. Lastly, there currently is no way for DLC add-ons to make it to a lot of games.  As the community grows, and the native software gets patched, it will become a heck of a system.

My recommendation is that if you play your Wii as much as your XBox or PS3 or you love Mario, Zelda and Metroid; pull the trigger.  If your Wii collects dust, don't.

Wow... but that does agree with the Kotaku article that commented on only 500ish Black Ops players online and only 37 people playing Madden concurrently.  How many people are on the Wii U leaderboards?  (Don't know if there is an easy way to tell).  Out of curiosity, is the RNG store the same on the Wii with recruit/vet/spectre/PSP packs?

[skulker]

The seem to be about 400 entries in the leaderboards. The RNG store is the same with rec/vet/SP/PSP/JEP packs. However, the only way to get packs is by earning credits in game.

It's pretty crazy. I played three different nights and kept seeing the same names over and over again in random pickup games. There were no Silver games available to join, so I had to create my own. Then people I recognized from the Bronze matches joined my game after I started it.

It's pretty easy to tell the ME3 newbies from the people who played on other platforms. The newbies keep dropping the package on delivery objectives because they try to run. The people who migrated from other consoles keep punching the air.

Thanks for the info.  Only 400 people who ever plugged in the game online in MP mode doesn't seem to bode well long term for the community.   I never expected the game to sell to the Wii crowd as well as on other platforms but the numbers shown for the "hardcore" games so far for the Wii are much lower than I would have ever expected.

I sincerely hope that changes for the Wii fanbase over the Christmas season.  The multiplayer is very surprisingly addictive for what most people expected to be a throwaway feature-check on the back of the box.  If Wii players ignore it, it's their loss.
