I just like owning a Wii U for the handy dandy internet features that allow me to watch p- okay never mind.

Only good if you like Nintendo games. Simple as that. 

 

If you like Nintendo games, then sure buy it. 

 

But if you don't like Nintendo games then it's a bad investment.

 

And to put it to you bluntly, there's not one single Nintendo Wii U game currently available or coming soon that interests me.

 

The Wii U is like the PS Vita of home consoles except the PS Vita actually has great hardware.

bayonetta 2,xenoblade 2(at least thats what im calling it for now),the wonderful 101, and several multiplats out now and some shared with other next gen consoles in the future, theres more than just 1st party titles. the PS3 didnt have very many exclusives until 2010, dont judge a console only out for a year 

seriously dude if you like hardware that much buy a pc

Why to buy a PS4 instead of a Wii U. Kingdom Hearts 3. Nuff said.

 

Nah im kidding, i like the Wii U, but the thing is, i dont see enough games that interest me, compared to the PS4. :

[Alexander Clover 7]

Or if you are poor like me you can  just save the munnys and buy PS4 when KH3 (or FFXV) its on sale

They don't interest me.

 

No, I'll just buy the most powerful video game console ever created since It has my all favourite games. FINAL FANTASY XV, Kingdom Hearts III, Madden NFL, Star Wars Battlefront and eventually all the games via Gaikai. I'm also hoping Bandai finally releases a great Dragon Ball Z game, been waiting for one since BT3.

battle of z came out recently or is coming out

[Sora96 17,256]

battle of z came out recently or is coming out

 

Battle of Z isn't what Dragon Ball Z fans want. None of the Dragon Ball Z games of this generation have been exactly what fans want. I'd love to play BT3 in HD on my PS3.

theres an hd collection. i played raging blast 2 and it just felt like bt3 with the shitty kai va's

Yeah for Budokai, which was great. But BT3 is better. 

 

Raging Blast 2's gameplay was the best of the generation but it's story mode was awful. Nothing wrong with the Z Kai voice actors.

[Blake 776]

But why would you buy a relatively cheap console with games over a "new" ps4/xbone with exactly zero games for it? It makes so much sense

 

I am glad some people can actually have positive articles about our lovely wiiu, shows that not everyone is all on the hype psbone train (which will derail by spring like every console does)

no, maybe not in australia but theres a budokai tenkaichi collection here

bt3 story mode wasnt that great either. you got a text box before a chapter and the characters say some lines during battle, everyone knows the storyline of z anyways. i had a problem with gohans va, he just sounded even girlier than before

 

edit:oh...theres not an hd collection. i couldve sworn i saw it in a store

Nope, wish there was.

BT3's story was great.

Don't forget Monster Hunter yoooooo.

 

I have a Wii U and it is great. But I will also be getting a PS4. TADA! Problem solved.

I want Battle of Z.

That article is what Reggie was suppose to say, but ofc he's all theorymoaning. 

 

Props to this article. Now if Nintendo can put their part and advertise better+make more exclusives, beyond 2014 won't be so bad. I'd like to say getting the 3rd party support, but I won't for numerous reasons.

Exactly this. The Wii U has some great games out for it now compared to the Xbone and PS4. It's would make more sense to get the Wii U this holioday season than a PS4 or Xbone.

[Kittenz 4,281]

My plan is I'm gonna buy a Wii U, then a ps4(KH3 derp) and eventually an xbox one. The reason im getting xbone? My older brother has an xbox one and I like the controller and games. (IMO Im not loyal to any console at any time)

 

I like the idea of chaining my next gen consoles and switching between games http://www.neowin.net/news/microsoft-xbox-one-can-connect-to-ps4-you-can-play-ryse-and-killzone-at-the-same-time http://www.gamespot.com/articles/playstation-4-will-work-with-xbox-ones-hdmi-pass-through-port/1100-6414735/ http://www.pcmag.com/article2/0,2817,2426949,00.asp

(Possibly will work with WII U as well *Squee*)

 

I want to play Titanfall and AC: black flag on xbone as well. ( Im used to playing AC games on xbox and various other games on ps3. Although, I am going to get black flag for PC and Wii U as well to test my PC stuff/ How well play works on the wii U)

 

I don't care about the hardware or brand, just the games.

I have another reason why to own the Wii U

 

[Shulk 8,623]

Didn't need to tell me twice. If it wasn't for KHIII, I wouldn't even be getting a PS4. Wii U all the way for me!

[Hero of Winds 2,576]

Seeing all the trash talk about consoles makes me sick and miss the innocence of childhood where all that mattered then were the games. All that matters to me now, are the games, why do we have to focus so much on technology, that won't mean jack shit by time we start buying games to play on it. It's like the PS3 and 360 happen, and the world of gaming turns into an apocalyptic fallout full of arrogant children who think they know what they're talking about.

[xxClouDxxmoon 901]

Definitely getting one for Super Smash Bro's, Mario Kart and the next Zelda. Though a lot of people think Nintendo might just drop the Wii-U and invest themselves into a new console.

[The Rocky Shoe 169]

I wouldn't have a WiiU if I didn't win it from IT'z. So far I mostly play on my 360 till the XB1 came out. Then when SM3DW came out I took some time off of them. After I was done with it I started playing DR3 again. 

 

I just like the XB1 more for 2 main reasons: 

Exclusives

Online Feats.
