No need to decide a winner between these two. They're both just necessary components in addition to a gaming PC to have a fulfilling 8th gen.

This post need more love

Well I was looking at the game isle and couldnt see a differance between xone and ps4 serious I was like wtf? Titanfall was the only exclusive there. It really didnt help me convince the wife to let us get a ps4. So where is this greater variety off games the op talks about?

Why not? I was fair, clarified at the start that it was only my personal opinion, and even said that the Wii U was a great console depending on your situation. I see nothing wrong with what I posted.

Because it's like deciding between air and water even though you you need both to live.



If you demand respect or gratitude for your volunteer work, you're doing volunteering wrong.

Just got a WiiU to sit beside my PS3 on my 720p 50" while I have my PS4 set up on my 32" 1080p LED. It's a great combo and I love all 3! I have to say WiiU has impressed me with its multimedia capabilities. With Xbox touting its movie watching and app capability so much I find it surprising Nintendo has made the best innovation and is the most convenient for these things this gen. I just love watching Youtube and Amazon instant on it now!


The Wii U should really be sitting beside your PS4.

the PS4 is in my room while the other 2 are in the family room which is why I have WiiU there for multimedia use.  Does it utilize 1080p on any games?

EDIT:  Just looked up that Wind Waker HD is in 1080p and so is Rayman Legends which I was thinking of getting on WiiU (for Gamepad support)

For the most part it's best to consider the WiiU a 720p system, so your other TV will work fine :) It does have a few released 1080p retail titles (you mentioned two), but all in all the list is rather short. Decent number of 60fps titles at least.

I agree.  That's how I do it!  But at least he got both consoles.  Can't say anything bad about that.

First, I plan on playing multiple PS3 games I missed with PS Now.

As for new games? I'm looking into, InFamous SS, Killzone SF, Destiny, Driveclub, LBP3, The Evil Within, and a few digital games.

My bad!  :P It wasn't directed toward you at all.  I was just saying that a lot of people won't give the Wii U a chance.  They just pick one console and hate on the rest.  Platformmaster has the Wii U on the weaker TV than the PS4 but at least he got one.  You actually gave the Wii U a chance even though, in the end, it wasn't for you.  You're not one of those that hates a console just because you don't own it.
