So, does the wii u serve as anyone's main console for gaming? I mean it seems that wii u is only good as a secondary console for Nintendo exclusives. Unless you plan on getting a pc/ps4/xbox one or have a ps3/360, you are going to miss a ton of third party games. The third parties the wii u will get shall be inferior to the other next gen versions too. The wii u for me personally just can't be my main console. When I get a wii u later down the line, it will be for the Nintendo exclusives while I game on my ps4 mainly. What about you?

It is my only gaming console but I don't really spend much time gaming these days.



I know it's my main console for bashing.



Why don't you make like a tree and get out of here?

It's my main console at the moment. The 360 is rarely used now.

Once I get the PS4 (12 months after launch at least) I wouldn't really have a main console. Each would have its use.

PS4 - Multi-plats
WiiU - All the amazing Nintendo games.

Wouldn't that kind of make wii u a secondary console then? You listed the same thing as me, unless our defs are different.

No, PC is my main console. Will change with all the games Nintendo releases in the next few months, though. I don't know how I am supposed to justify spending at least another 600€ for Nintendo games alone (3DS included, though) until christmas to myself. That's one entire month's payment...(Thank god KH3 won't release for at least another 2 years, else I would have to get a PS4 this year, too.)



It's not mine, but I can see why it would be.



My best friend owns a Wii U, but she doesn't play a lot because she's pissed off there are not a lot of games

Not if you mainly play Nintendo games

Lot's of worth while third party games to play.^

Last of Us, Tomb Raider, Metro, Bioshock, Dead Space, GTAV, etc.

I do not know how it would be anyone's main console, unless it was their only console. 3DS is my main handheld, also, it is my only handheld besides the DSXL I am trying to sell.

Ya me neither, don't get me wrong Nintendo exclusives are great, but damn you're going to miss out on some great gaming experiences from third parties.
