There are different Facebook Status of the Day widgets that you may want to have on your own page to share with friends and followers or even just to make it easier for you to check out the new daily status for your favorite type of status.
The funny and hilarious status of the day ones are especially good when you want a good laugh. The love one can be fun to share with your partner or other loved ones. The life one tends to be good for inspiration, get you geared up for the day, or to keep you going. The clever one is my favorite, though, as it has witty things daily.
Other Facebook Status of the Day widgets include the good and best ones. There is also a Facebook Quote of the Day one that is good for those that like to enjoy and share different quotes. There is even an Insurance Facebook Status of the Day that may be of interest to those that work in insurance or know people that work in the insurance industry.
What is your favorite Facebook Status of the Day Widget?
Captain Falcon's Twister Race Thrills, Twists, and Turns is a racing mini game. You turn the Gamepad side to die to control your racer through the courses. Mostly, you look at the Gamepad screen, but when you go through tunnels only the TV screen shows you and the boosts.
In the Takamaru's Ninja Castle Throwing-Star Game part of NintendoLand you throw stars from the Gamepad to targets on the TV screen. Overall it is peretty simple to play, but it does start to get hard as more ninjas come and some throw things at you. I found it a good challenge, though. However, the bossa t about Stage 5 was kind of annoying because it took forever to wittle it down and it is not exactly clear what exactly you were supposed to be hitting.
Donkey Kong Crash Course Full-Tilt Obstacle Course has you tilt the Gamepad and use the different buttons and joysticks depending on the obstacles. At first it is pretty simple, but I still cannot get past the part where you have to spin the right joystick to turn the path with you on it. Thus, it is quickly challenging, but I hear 9 is the worst part. I still find it kind of addicting and fun to try to do, though.
Metroid Blast Deep-Space Shootout is not the kind of game I expected to like, but I was kind of surprised at how complicated I found it. Yeah, I am one for simple controls and the whole having to use two joysticks moving the Gamepad and also use L and R buttons is just too much to try and get coordinated with. I actually surprised myself in being able to beat the first level in the assault mission (only mode I could play on my own) on just my second try.
Octopus Dance Undersea Party Grooves is a rhythm game. Playing on the Gamepad you use the two joysticks to control the Miis arms to match what the guy does in 1, 2, 3 counts. In the first few stages it just using the joysticks, but later it also involves jumping by shaking the Gamepad and tilting side to side for different positions.
The Pikmin Adventure Tame the Wilderness part of NintendoLand plays much like a action adventure level style game. I found the first 6 levels of challenge mode very easy to play. It is interesting how it has different types of levels like timed, challenge, and boss. However, the 7th level is a timed one that is got quickly very frustrating for me, as it seems to run out of time very quickly with few opportunities to collect extra time before it runs out. Then again I am not that great at these types of games and do not like them that much to grind and master them anyways. However, it does seem like it might be more fun if played with a friend, although the versus mode is probably not for me since pretty much anyone could very easily beat me.
In the Yoshi's Fruit Cart On the Snack Trail part of NintendoLand you try to collect all the fruit and get to the goal. The concept sounds easy, but the actual execution can be tricky. The fruit and obstacles appear only on the screen and you have to draw the path on the Gamepad. There are different landmark things like clouds and proximity to other fruit or the door that can help you draw the path successfully.
Clearly, I have not paid much attention to the preview or Wii U release news since the announcement back in September because I had no idea that I would not be able to enjoy Nintendo TVii, Hulu Plus, or Amazon Instant Video until some later update. I am quite disappointed because the Nintendo TVii feature was the thing I was most excited about checking out. I know it is a video game system and yeah I did get it more for gaming, but I really was interested in being able to watch the other stuff on my TV using the Wii U since Nintendo consoles are the only systems I own and only thing I hook up to my TV besides my DirecTV box. What is more annoying is it has the icons on the Gamepad screen for the different video services and only Netflix is actually available right now. At least the Nintendo TVii part does say it is coming in December, though.
