UPDATE: It has been almost two months and many things have changed. WIth the under performing launch line ups of 4BONE, buying a Wii U instead makes even more sense.

Take a look at retail exclusives by the end of the year. I think it's obvious who wins.

Super Mario 3D World  Killzone Shadow Fall
 Ryse
New Super Mario Bros. U  Knack  Forza 5
New Super Luigi U
 Dead Rising 3
ZombiU

Now let's look at price. Wii U wins again.

$299 $399 $499

What about the multiplat games though? Everyone's a winner.

But what about the graphics?

Factor in the Wii U gamepad being included at no additional cost, and the Wii U is by far the best buy this holiday.

So if you are planning to buy a PS4 or XBONE at launch, why aren't you getting a Wii U instead?
