Well I don't really care for Nintendo Land, so it would cost me another $50 to get a game I actually want to play, so about $250 for me. Nah not worth it.


What currently available game would need to be bundled for u to get it?

Metroid Prime 4. Wait currently available? Probably 3D World. But I'd still like it to have a larger library of 1st party games. 


Ur original post seemed to imply that price was the issue for u so I thought there were already games on Wii U u wanted, just not Nintendo Land.

I hope Metroid is shown at E3, Retro said they have been working on there new game for a few months so by E3 it will be in development for about 6 months which should be enough time to give a teaser trailer. Assuming that there new game is Metroid that is.

It's a combo of price and games for me. The only games I really want on WiiU are 3D World and Mario Kart 8. But I'd buy a WiiU the day another Metroid comes out. As long as it's by Retro of course.

it's refurbished for Christ sake they probably have less than 100 available, why some people here act like it's an official price cut?



Bet reminder: I bet with Tboned51 that Splatoon won't reach the 1 million shipped mark by the end of 2015. I win if he loses and I lose if I lost.

Great deal,



VITA 32 GIG CARD.250 GIG SLIM & 160 GIG PHAT PS3

Same here, im a huge Nintendo fan but as of now the price is a bit too high and there are only a few games I really want. mostly Pikmin, Wind Waker, 3D World and now Tropical Freeze. Im planning on getting it this Spring tho, with the addition of Mario Kart that brings it to 5 must have games for me so I can justify the price, although I would love to see a $250 Mario Kart bundle.

I love how hypo-critic some people are in this site... When the wiiU was $350, people said, nahh, I will buy it when its $300, when they lowered it to $300, people said nahh, $250, now you have one for $250, people say nahh $200 and etc... Just come out and say you aren't gonna buy it regardless of the price point already... We get it, its not your type of a console and thats alright but don't lie and say you are gonna buy it

Thinly veiled trolls, thats all, they were happy to use the whole "when it drops in price ill buy one" line when it looked like it wouldnt happen, now it has, the drop "isnt enough" or whatever bullshit excuse.

I bought one on launch day and second a few months ago, yet these same people that have yet to buy it, attack me when i post anything negative about nintendo, such is the state of the console wars.

Agreed! Its amazing how many excuses people make in order to not buy a system they said they would if blah happened... Was $350 too expensive for the wiiU? Hell yes! Was $300? Thats argueable, how about $250? Hell no, thats cheaper than a lot of last gen systems, and etc... And now that used wiiUs are coming out at a price that people love, they will move that goalpost once again and say," oh it doesn't have the games that I want.." Watch, when Nintendo brings out MK8, SSB, X and etc, people will say, "oh I don't like the gamepad, if they got rid of that, it would be perfect or, oh I hate their online system or, oh I hate the shape of the wiiU hardware itself"

I seriously like people that trash on the hardware and the games library more than people that keep on making up excuses to "buy" a hardware they clearly don't want. At least people that hate the wiiU provide a reason to hate it and say the hardware or games or etc don't appeal to them instead of saying, "oh, it fixed this issue I had with it but I am not gonna buy it even though I said I would but if they fix this other issue I have, I will buy it for sure!"

Btw, idk if I said this yet but I <3 your avatar!!!

So just because a system is cheaper now we should go rush and buy it even if doesn't have the games we want? Yeah that makes total sense. Who cares what games it has? A used console is selling for slightly cheaper than the normal price. Anyone who doesn't buy it is a hypocrite and a troll! I should go buy one right now and put it in my closet for a year until a game I actually want to play comes out. That'll prove I'm not a Nintendo hater!

Try to at least follow the discussion.

Anyone that claims the only reason they were not buying one was its price, is a hypocrit for moving the goalposts whenever the price comes down.

No I followed the discussion pretty well. Jizzbeard's post couldn't have been more directed at my response had he help a bright neon sign with my name on it.

I just wanted to let people know about this because I've read a lot of VGCharters were waiting for a price drop. Now's their chance!

I never said it was you dude... I am referring to the people that say that the only reason they didn't buy a wiiU was cause of the price and now making up other reasons not to buy a wiiU. We are well awear that you have said that it needs a price drop + key games but I am talking about the people that said it only needs a price drop and they will buy it
