i've never understood people selling consoles.

A) don't buy a console you don't actually want.
B) once purchased, the resell value sucks so much you might as well keep it.


Exactly. It's like you want to give a kick in the ass to the company, but it doesn't matter as you've given them your money anyway. All you're doing is decreasing your collection and getting almost nothing in return.

How did Nintendo find themselves in this state... smh.



MH3U -> keep it.
Aside from that, I always keep the devices while they are current, and later only give it away to friends or family.
Can't understand people that sell their device after some months. You lose a lot of money that way.

I think you should just sell your Wii U, with that kind of attitude is obvious you don't like the system. No point in keeping it. 

I always found this kind of questions kinda stupid tbh, by this point and with the known 2014 lineup, you should already know if you like a console ot not, no need to people on the web tell you what to do. 



Nintendo and PC gamer

Never crossed my mind.. Nintendo will go all out and give full support. As an action / platform gamer I never felt a drought.  I'm flooded.

This, im sticking with Wii U /3DS combo for the forseeable future...so much quality gaming.

You might as well just sell it.



I don't think I will get much for it so might as well keep it.

My bad, I think you mistook that comment the wrong way. I wasn't cheering for it to be true, by "great" I meant "oh great" (sarcastically)



Don’t follow the hype, follow the games

Here a little quote I want for those to keep memorize in your head for this coming next gen.                            

 By: Suke

I have two Gamecubes and two PS2's, so it's safe to say I never sell consoles. However, in your case, I'd really recommend keeping it. What games do you like? You Smash and Kart, but there's got to be something else. How about X? We'll hear more about it soon. Metroid? You know that's gonna come eventually. Bayonetta's never going to be anywhere but Wii U. Yarn Yoshi is on its way too. Perhaps you don't like platformers? FExSMT should be interesting. We'll hear something about Zelda at E3 this year, probably get it next spring. And that's just the first party, once things pick up a bit after Smash and Kart you can bet there will be a handful of interesting third party entries like Zombie U. Sure you can rebuy the system once everything comes out, but that's such an inefficient way to handle money. I don't know, might just be the way I do things. There's not much out for PS4 either.

I really am curious exactly what you expect of Wii U though. What would you actually want to see besides Kart and Smash? If you like platformers, I don't know what else you want, the thing is littered with them. If you like Strategy, there's Pikmin, if you like RPGs, there's Monster Hunter, X, and Fire Emblem (which also applies to strategy), if you like action there's Hyrule Warriors, Bayonetta and Wonderful 101, racing has Mario Kart, Need For Speed, and Project Cars, I mean the only genre that's sorely lacking is the shooters, which just has a couple COD ports at this point.

What would make you not consider selling it? What exactly are you looking for?



Can't play most of the games I want the most on XB1 or PS4, well my signature explains it all...
