I know the feeling; I was in the same position this time last year.

why not just hold on to it?

I've played all the games that I've wanted. It's been gathering dust over the last month and I'm not going to keep it for a year if I'm not going to use it much.

fair enough, I think my friend sold his as well he didnt even last 5 months, told him not to get it.

I didn't last more than 2 months lol for me, the library on the Wii U is really poor at this moment in time.  I've got most of the ports on my PS3, a console which I use a lot more and have played all of Nintendo's offerings so far. I'll consider getting one again when there is a much bigger library.

my friend wasnt even a big Ninty fan so he had no buisness getting it in the first place. He got Zombi U which he said was mediocore and Mario just to have something else to play

Now, I'm not saying they COULDN'T or WOULDN'T release Smash Bros. close to MK8, I just think it's extremely unlikely, as I think Smash Bros. would be their most desired title to push as the BIG November 2014 holiday release. Your statement that X is just as notable as MK8 is silly. X is (presumably) a sequel/spiritual successor to a niche JRPG which never reached a million copies sold worldwide on a system with a 90 million install base at the time (not hatin' on Xenoblade, you can check out the Top 50 games thread and see that it's my favorite game of all time), and while I personally am looking forward to X more than any other game in 2014, from Nintendo's business perspective, X is simply not going to make them nearly as much money, nor push Wii U systems the way that Smash Bros. and MK8 will. I DO think it is also worth mentioning that Sakurai hinted last E3 that the 3DS and Wii U versions of Smash Bros. may not release at the same time. The 3DS version is supposed to let you do some kinds of customization on moves/attacks and characters that could then be carried into the Wii U version. If so, it's likely they would release that version first. Separating them would also help make sure the Wii U version gets its own time in the spotlight, away from the 3DS' much larger audience.  So it's certainly a possibility that the 3DS version of Smash could come out fairly close to MK8, though if I had to guess I'd say maybe August or September for that and then again November for the Wii U version. 

How did you survive?
