Mass Effect 3 Wii U includes Extended Cut DLC

Good for them. I wonder how much I would have loved ME3 if I had never seen that original ending.

Gonna need one hell of a long intro comic to get all those ME1&2 choices sorted... Maybe they'll find a fun way to use the controller for that...

Not hating on the WiiU, I like the idea, but wrong game entirely for the system, unless they wanted to bring all 3 games to it and allow you to use powers off the touchpad (thinking about it that'd be pretty nice) but considdering biowares usual porting style, it'll be a simple slap it on the disc and hope no one notices the framerate.

Don't post often here. But I saw this:

"vocally expressed their disinterest in the original endings."

Truly? 'Vocally expressed their disinterest? Truly? Could you have possibly written a blander article than this? Perhaps- but deadlines, right? Not only was it bland but it was utterly dismissive of the gamers who've invested their time and money in the franchise only to have the rug pulled from under them in the last ten minutes.

Disinterested? Forgive me if I'm still stuck here. But do you -and I mean gamespot on the whole- even know what that means?

Were the fans disinterested you wouldn't have had the ongiong outcry, nor the admittedly misguided cupcakes,fund-raisings etc. Conversely, nor would you have a majority(hyperbole's wonderful, isn't it?) of the hipster mouth-breathers this site calls staffers taking the opportunity for twitting their 'outrage' and their support for 'artistic integrity' while in the same breath bashing the  'hordes of the great unwashed.'  Well enough- they're easy targets aren't they? Even so they're segment whose support over the years has made both the industry, and in turn gamespot and every other such den of obsequious, pseudo-journalism out there possible.

Disinterested. Right. Artistic integrity. Right. Yes I'm still stuck here. But it's as though a liberal arts major(assuming they have even that) somehow gives you an intellectual and moral leg up. I'm here to say right now that it doesn't. It simply doesn't.

Now if you've a moment away from counting your trust funds, you might come back down to the gutter to where entertainment and salaries actually have to be weighed against one another. To a place where words such as discretional income grow ever nonsensical by the day . It's been five years. Five. Bloody. Years. Five years waiting for this ending and that's an eternity in gaming.

But what were the fans of Mass Effect given?

They were given artistic integrity, intellectual disinterest, vocational lassitude, not to mention moral and ethical ennui from a gaming studio that owes them -f**king OWES them better- for their their devotion over the last decade and more. Bioware owes them and they know it.

Oh- but there was multi-player. They were given multi-player. *twirls finger in the air- "Huzzah..."* Moving on...

But in leaving - while you're at it- have your staffers look up 'entitlement.' That's another word you've taken to misattributing. See, entitlement is what you and the gaming industry have exhibited to date. As though you believe you deserve your money, you deserve your jobs, and that somehow, magically,(perhaps even space-magically) you'll keep them, no matter how you keeping phoning it in.

single player DLC about time should of had this a month ago not more silly multiplayer stuff that could of been done later on

Long story short: So what?

The Wii U gets the better deal here. But of course all the little hateboys come out to talk their usual shit. Go figure.

As excited as I am for the Wii U, I am rather puzzled by this game being ported over, especially considering that it's a game that pretty much requires you to play the previous entries in order to get the best experience, unless you can somehow transfer your PS3/360/PC data to the Wii U, I don't know about the likelihood of success for this game. Still getting Assassin's Creed 3 though for Wii U :D

It'd be preety stupid if they didn't release it with the extended-cut

I hope they make a few single player DLC like they did with Dragon Age Origins; seperate campains taking place after the original story.  I'd like to see what happens to my shepard since she survived.

I guess Bioware doesn't want to see their original endings anymore, and I want a new dlc krogan party member for shepard please

Bundle free DLC with a game? Wow, compared to the 6 hours DLC of the PS3 edition of ME2 that is quite sad... seriously who will buy this???

Only reason I clicked this article was to see the news about single-player DLC.  Can't wait.

Considering the limited memory of the Wii U, this is a good thing. Of course, late ports usually get extra fixins tbh.

I already have Mass Effect 3 for the 360 and the DLC so I'll pass on this for sure.

Nintendo always a day late and a dollar short. As its already been stated the Wii U is barely on par with the 360 , there is no reason to buy it for this system, unless you absolutely must have the dlc on disc.

Whats the point on releasing it on the wii when they don't even have the first two? 

I personally have not had the time to play that game yet, so I"m actually excited about getting it for this system.

Well yeah, this should contain the extended cut, as well as all other DLC otherwise it's pointless.

It shouldn't be any other way for next releases, even Greatest hits and platinium ones.

This just makes sense. Now, if they could fit ME2 on the same disc, Bioware could have a real winner here. It's a shame ME3 ended the way it did, and the Extended Cut didn't make it a whole lot better. Even though the ending isn't very good, ME3 is a lot of fun, and the ME series is fantastic as a whole.

By including this in the WiiU version, it seems to me like BioWare has essentially decided themselves that their original ending wasn't good enough.

Not interested in anything nintendo does. Wii U is another paper weight.

I hate that everyone who disliked the fact the ME3 didn't end the way they thought it should is whining and complaining.  I can guarantee that the ME trilogy is one of the best franchises to be released this console generation.  Complaining that people are going to experience a game thats 9.0 rated from just about every critic?!?  C'mon people.  The word "trolling" comes to mind.....

Hm... Since Wii U disc capacity will be 25GB++, they should just include all 3 games into 1 disc... :)
