I feel so sorry for you that Nintendo can't come with the same amount of games and quality like the PS3 that is only 7 years on the market.. Nintendo didn't expect you to want over 100 quality games 3 months after release.

You don't feel good games are coming to Wii U? Unbelievable, just take a look at this trailer I made. Those are all quality titles and VERY varied in genres. There should be a game for everyone.

Only the fact alone you're saying: PS4 and Xbox 720 are coming up! proves your a biased gamer. There are almost no exciting games announced for PS4; the same shooter and a random platforming that is wait-and-see and multiplatform games other consoles (even PS360) are getting. Even a Sony-fanboy has to admit Wii U has a better line up of announced games than PS4. Xbox 3 isn't even announced and there are rumors it won't be a real gaming console.

I predict that DRAGON QUEST X alone will make the WiiU sell like 2 more million consoles at release, and ANOTHER million for Monster Hunter.

lol no exciting games on ps4, it didn't even go through its first E3 yet, and already has a more intersting line up then wiiu to me, witcher 3, thief, kill zone SF, nack, battle field 4, and the superior version of watch dogs, the only thing i would care about on wiiu is 3d mario or a zelda like the tech demo. as for the op, i think he made the right choice, if he never owned a a ps3/360 he will have a huge backlog of games, and some great ones coming to keep him busy for 2 years, then he should buy a ps4.



You traded in a new console for a console that has 1-2 years left, The Wii U has not had its main franchises released yet, you speak of the new PS4 and the new Xbox as something you will purchase also, so in my opinion, yes you made a mistake.

Zelda, Mario, Mario Kart, Pikmin, W101, and 'X' don't interest you?

If that is the case, I am forced to wonder why you bought a Wii U at all.



The Screamapillar is easily identified by its constant screaming—it even screams in its sleep. The Screamapillar is the favorite food of everything, is sexually attracted to fire, and needs constant reassurance or it will die.

Depends. If you want to play Nintendo games, you will need a Wii U. If you prefer third party and Sony games, you made a good choice. Make sure to get the Uncharted games. Esp Uncharted 2.

With that money I got a 500gb PS3 super slim, LBP Karting and 1 year PS Plus.

The Wifi is garbage with no ethernet ports!


I agree that you got a good deal with the PS3, as it's a great system.  But what is this nonsense about ethernet ports?  The original Wii didn't have them, and it's become common place now for WiFi to be integrated into everything, while physical ethernet ports are now being removed from most devices.  I don't really think it's fair criticism.

Actually the wifi is garbage. 1 in every 4 matches of Black Ops2 would fuck up. The other 3 of 4 matches I was running around with 1 bar running through walls and shit. This NEVER happened with my PS3 online. My tablet and cell phone dont have a problem with the wifi. I even had my router sitting right on top of my WiiU i was so fed up! What really sucks is that you are not given an option about it....your stuck with it.

And as far as I know the PS4 is going to be released with ethernet. So yes companies are still adding ethernet ports. And it's such a cheap option. But it's good to give the customer a choice right?

You're describing router issues.  You probably have to change the channel on your router so it works better with the Wii U.  It's not faulty hardware.  And while it's likely the PS4 will end up with an ethernet port, surely you agree that for the most part, new devices do not release with ethernet ports.
