Houn: Yeah, I say a guy with a name that was just a very slightly misspelled Hitler (with a Mii to match) in MK8, and I had to play a few matches with this asshat because I had a full lobby and I didn't want to leave. And I kept losing to the guy too, which irritated me a lot.

What do you have against James Hotler? He is not responsible for his family's last name! He lives every day with the gasps and the jeers of everyone around him!
One thing that Nintendo needs to improve is reporting. Like, I don't even know how to report someone for playing MK8 online with a Mii named "Diqqmouth". I ended up racing against this clown, and figured I'd report him, only to find no way to do so from the race lobby. So, after I backed out and went to Friends (which also shows recent players), he wasn't on the list; evidently that list is populated with NNIDs, not the specific Mii you were racing as, so I have no idea who it really was.
C'mon, Nintendo. I'd at least have expected you to get a properly working "Report" button, considering how amazingly anal you are about the sanitation of your online services.
And yes, "Diqqmouth" was designed to looked like he had a dick in his mouth.
Well, you could have gone to Miiverse.
You can't open the Wii Menu from the race lobby, and I'm not sure how that would have helped me find his NNID. When you race as a Mii, it uses that Mii as your name/Mii in the lobby and game instead of your NNID Mii.
Ok, I just took a screen grab and uploaded it to all 4 sites to see if I could compare them. I got a slightly higher resolution since I chose the image off the TV instead of the Gamepad (I'm playing off TV at the moment, and it was a pain to mess with that with Pikmin but on Mario Kart it's no bigs.
It appears that I got different resolutions from the different websites and different file sizes. The Facebook one and the Tumblr one look almost, if not, identical but have different resolutions and the Facebook one is about a fourth the filesize.
That's really neat - we've been playing a ton of Nintendoland as a family - it would be cool to post occasional pics on Facebook of me gloating at how much I dominate them at Mario Chase.

999x562, what the hell.
EDIT: Wait nevermind, that's full 720. The pics were squished a bit by auto resizing.
Can't you upload screenshots directly to imgur now? Didn't they add that in the latest firmware update or did I dream that?
You can feasibly upload to just about any image hosting site, really, just some don't play friendly with the Wii U browser. Supposedly stuff like copy.com and minus.com work fine though.
I wish you could just save the shots to the storage if you aren't connected to the Internet.
I'm glad to see screenshots now available though. Even though it's fairly tacked on still with the 3DS.
So someone with a computer able to tell us which upload site has the best resolution/quality? I don't mind moving images after upload if I can at least start with a good image.
From looking above it seems Tumblr might be best, since it's at full resolution, and as McFlynn says that Facebook's is 1/4th the file size I would guess there is less compression too. Though the ones pictured above are all re-uploads to imgur which adds its own compression.
One thing to keep in mind is that screenshot posting can be addicting. My Zelda let's play comprises over 300 Tweets/Tumblr posts, and that's just one game. All the other screenshots and all the times I challenged various forumers by posting Need for Speed times just made things worse.
@Houn call customer support and let them know that its offending you and the lack of tool s to report it is a big oversight. Its not hard to patch something like that in and Nintendo would definitely do it of they got enough complaints
I have a podcast now. It's about video games and anime!Find it here.
Woo! My first let's play sort of thing. Never beaten Zelda 1 before and did it without a guide.
Still a really great game.
You can get to Zelda without killing the flames...? All these years and I've never tried it - schoolyard rumor was that touching those flames was an insta-kill, heh.
Anyway, grats on beating Zelda 1! I agree, it holds up amazingly well.

The flames didn't kill me, although my playthrough did have some pretty funny moments.
Oh god Wonderful 101 is so charming and rage-inducing... just like all my other WiiU games... wait a minute...
Speaking of charming and rage-inducing, I've been eyeballing the Wii Punch-Out. Should I?
Yes yea a thousand times yes
Punch Out Wii is everything an update to such a classic game should be. Which reminds me I still have stars to get, but I probably already lost all of my hard-earned skills at it.
Buddy and I are trying to system link WiiUs for extinction in Ghosts but neither can see the other when joining. Anyone got insight into possible router configs that would help? Both connect to interwebz just fine.

I meant more like he just put an extra H in front, and the rest was spelled the same.
Typically a Tumblr upload has a little less compression than the Miiverse upload as well.

I was wrong. 460 images. That seems like a lot for one game.

I love that you can't find level 2
Edit: Also it's hilarious with as much as you use bombs, you totally skipped the bomb capacity upgrade
I was also going to laugh if you couldn't get to Ganon after missing the Lion Key :P
That man deserves a medal.
