I'm probably going to buy the 3DS version on launch and wait for the Wii U version to come out to purchase the main console game ( I only have a Wii console right now and it seems kind of pointless for me to purchase the Wii version right away when I'm going to buy the Wii U console anyway so why not make Giants my first game for it?)

Just in case if some of you didn't know, the Wii U is coming out on November 18th =). http://www.nintendo.com/wiiu/

JESUS! The DX Wii U is $349.00?! You can buy all of the new Giants characters for cheaper!

^ Consoles are always high priced when they are first released. The Xbox 360 Elite was $479.99USD and the PS3 (40 GB) was $399.99USD. The price of the Wii U will diminish eventually but I'm still going to purchase the Deluxe at launch.

Every Wii U game has network capabilities. Not necessarily online play, but you can create and share tags whilst in game that pop-up on your friends games. For example, I could write a tag that says "Secret location here, use a Giant to enter!" and publish it. Anyone on my friends list who was playing Giants with the feature turned on would see the tag and know about the information that I've shared.

It's a nice little system

Confirmed Glow in the Dark Cynder for Gamestation (UK) anyway, (I didn't take this picture, but I did ask permission from the guy who did before posting it here):

Ok so is this up for pre-order yet, if so do you have to go in store, cause I cannot find it anywhere on the site. Any help appriciated

I found the GITD Portal edition, but not the GITD portal and GITD cynder

That's it, my friend - there is no third version with just the glow portal but no glow Cynder. It is merely that the item was listed before the confirmation and not updated since.

Also my fave Giant :>

Thumback looks better than I thought. I thought he would just swing his anchor around, but he uses it to lasso people in.

I like his eating enemies move

Thanks, has anyone tried this yet, or ever ordered anything from this company? It just is a lot of money to fork over for no garuntee. Anyone aware of their return policy?!

Heh heh. me too. Hopefully it will be better than 's Tongue Attack, where you can see the enemies fall off the screen under him.

I'm getting the Xbox version, but i used to have the wii version of S:SA. Will the toys work still?

Yes, it will.

Giants Wii U gameplay video I've put together from the Activision Reels:



Mike Graham talks about Giants on the Wii U, and there's gameplay of Fright Rider on the television behind him and his toy form:

thats cool thanks aura!

WHOA.

If frighty and thumpy are getting publicity, THEN WE'VE GOT SOME POTENTAL OFFICAL REVEALS COMING UP.

Thanks, has anyone tried this yet, or ever ordered anything from this company? It just is a lot of money to fork over for no garuntee. Anyone aware of their return policy?!

My first pre-order from them but I perceive that Buzzthebatgirl has prior experience with them? I would PM her...


Portal

Well, there you go - a Portal for Wii U. Hopefully no more arguments on NFC versus RFID.

i really wish we could have gotton some fright rider gameplay. he looks ausome!

The only moves I saw Fright Rider use was the spear and charging I wonder was his 3rd move is???

im thinking his bird thing will shoot like a magicall ball or something. that would be ausome.

It looks like one of the Story Scrolls is called " Forgers Basement"
I wonder what it's about?

why would they even need a GITD portal? it already lights up. and im assuming a fair amount of kids/teens just keep it in a box or cabinet. although im guessing Glow-in-the-dark cynder would sound more confusing than glow-in-the-dark portal, so it's possible it's for easier listing. but from what i can see, all the promotion says is "glow in the dark cynder figure." it doesn't seem likely to say
"glow in the dark portal and glow in the dark cynder figure."

Display the glow Portal on the special Battle Arena add on thingie.

Perhaps us americans will get Glow in the Dark Cynder as a loose figure and have her imported to the US

Fright Rider

Looks like Fright Rider is to be on the 270/540/690 path for health.

ShaneG.

Thanks Plaag
it appears fright rider has a charge attack and a attack where he just hits enemeys

Watched the rest of it: Tree Rex stats are Speed 20, Armor 24, Crit 40 and Elemental Power 25

ShaneG.

I forgot to mention that online the site merely takes a pre-order on the item and does not actually charge your card or PayPal account until it is released.

Going in to a store, you would only risk 10 quid, not the entire amount, as well.

Frights looks like a good character. I'll be getting him on day 1
