Author Topic: Is the Wii U really that worth it?  (Read 1555 times)

I might save up to get it because it does seem cool, although 249$ for it just doesn't seem worth it.
I know deep down inside within 6-24 months from now the price of the Wii U will lower a lot like all video games, video game consoles and electronic devices.

I played it at a cousins house. Nintendo land was the stuff, it was awesome. I definitely recommend it.

I know the games on the Wii U are pretty awesome, and compared to the PS3 and XBOX 360; I think the Wii U fits my likes. PS3 and XBOX games are just too violent for me. I don't even like shooters.

it depends on what type of games you like.
personally, i think it has less than five games that are worth playing. fewer worth buying.

so as an owner, i would say not yet.
once Pikmin 3 is out i'd say Nintendo is ready for your money

Its actually $300 for the Basic model & $350 for the Deluxe model. I recommend it although I don't even own one. Think about the game library if your more in to FPS and racing games buy a Xbox or a PS3.

What about the other games, like NSMBU, Nintendo Land & Rayman Legends?

I do like retro games, colorful indies, some exploration adventure games, and sandboxes.

Then you should get a Wii U now, I heard that lots of retro games are on sale.

than the wii u is for you

only colorful indies and sandboxes i know of for xbox 360 is minecraft, and i dont even own a ps3

the wii u also has better support for downloading games via the nintendo eshop, which contains already many indie games and even some retail games that you can download

the only virtual console game so far is balloon fight though

also the wii u has support for wii games and even wii virtual console games and some wii channels

eh... For retro and indie games just get a cheap PC and use an emulator

When I will get money enough I will totally buy a Wii U, I recomend because the exclusives are amazing and there is alot of cool games that will come out for it

Once they announce MarioKart-U...

Once they announce MarioKart-U...
This and Yoshi's Island-U

Apart from if you want nintendoland, Not just yet, Wait until we're a bit closer to the big games.
