I plan on watching my WiiU collect dust as it has been doing for a while now. I'm sure it could make an excellent paper weight or door stop too though. It could also be used as a murder weapon... there's many things you can do with it.

It makes excellent catapult ammo too.

The responses here are amusing. I remember people on VGC saying PS4 has no games in 2013 and 2014 when it had quite many games, and that PS4 owners had nothing to play, when like many responses here, they probably had other gaming systems and a backlog.

Also having a life and having games to play have no relation to each other. You can play many games a year and have a great life. You can also have no games to play and have no life. If you're on a gaming forum games are probably a big part of your life. This is true for everyone, VGC and beyond, who uses this petty insult in any argument.

It's pretty weird seeing the shift. I joined a bit before the recent gen

I have a giant backlog on both WiiU and 3ds, so I'm covered.

Where do you kids these days get the time to breeze through so much content so fast? Maybe I'm just not hardcore enough but between studying and a full time job I don't have much time for gaming anymore.
I'm almost grateful there's nothing much to buy and throw on my backlog! :P
(No, I'm not saying Nintento letting the WiiU die a slow and painful death is a good thing overall, but for me personally it provides a breather)

Edit: After seeing midranges comments on this I feel the need to clarify that I'm by no means implying that people with a lot of time on their hands for gaming have no live. If anything I'm sort of envious and want to know the secret to managing your time better! :P

With regards to time, I don't plan on playing every single ps4 game nor do I plan on playing every single of game (that would be absurd).

However, E3 is a place to show off many upcoming games. The more games a platform has to show, the likelier you are to finding a game/games that suit your taste. It's all about options

I think that is actualy very small number that have only Wii U like gaming platform, some of them have 3DS also, some have PC, some have PS4/XB1..

While true, I don't think some (like myself) enjoy the fact that not much was shown for the wii u for 2016 at E3. I kinda expected some more things as a wii u owner, but as a gamer I'll be fine



Illusion on 19 June 2016

I will be mostly playing eShop and Wii Virtual Console games, which is what I basically bought the console for. I bought my Wii U in March 2015 and so I knew full well that the console was going to have a very short life when I bought it.

Games that I have beaten on my Wii U so far:

- Chrono Trigger
- Phantasy Star II
- Earthbound

Games that I am still playing:
- Shining Force
- Yoshi's Woolly World
- Super Mario 3D World
- Yoshi's Story
- Splatoon
- Mario Kart 8

Games that I have bought but not yet played:
- Phantasy Star III
- Phantasy Star IV
- Super Metroid
- Shining Force II
- Shining in the Darkness
- Golden Sun
- Golden Sun II

Games that I would like to buy:
- #FE Tokyo Mirage
- Final Fantasy: The After Years
- Final Fantasy I, II and III
- Super Mario RPG
- Paper Mario (N64)
- Zelda Breath of the Wild

For me, there are far too many games on the Wii U that I would like to play. I doubt that I will ever be able to fully play everything I would like to on this console. The library is just enormous.  Zelda Breath of the Wild is really just icing on the cake for me.

I can't imagine anyone would have solely gamed on just the WiiU since it launched. The droughts would have been enough to push away even the most hardcore fans.

 Actually my work leaves not enough time to play my games, so WiiU should have been enough. Sadly though I also own a 3DS, so my backlog is enormous.

And Nintendo has more interesting games than most think, as I also play fun little download-titles. Most here seem to discard them from the start.

Personally i dont find the WiiU to have many interesting games, thats probably why i only own one game for the system and will maybe buy one or two more ever. 3DS on the other hand has alot of great titles, I've got a small backlog building for it.

I plan on playing Splatoon and Xenoblade X, like what I have been doing for most of 2015 and 2016 :P

Me?
I'm still finishing Lone Survivor (i think that's the name) and The Swapper for Wii U. Loving the Swapper!

Me too, one of the best Wii U games of 2014 in my opinion. Fantastic atmosphere, visual design, puzzles, and story.

I still need to get Pokken and Twilight Princess HD and I plan to get old games I still don't have like City Undercover, Kirby Rainbow Curse or Monster Hunter 3. 

I'd recommend skipping Rainbow Curse personally, unless you really liked Canvas Curse on DS, but LEGO City and MH3 are definitely worth getting. If you don't have them, other less popular Wii U titles I'd recommend picking up are The Swapper, Sonic Racing Transformed, Need for Speed Most Wanted U, Rayman Legends, Deus Ex Human Revolution, and ZombiU.

I think part of the reason so many are "fine with it" is because we knew it was going to be pretty much Zelda: The Show in advance. So people got their anger and disappointment out of their systems ahead of time, and then went into E3 knowing what they were getting, compared to last year, where we went in expecting cool new announcements and got jack shit.

I think Canvas Curse is one of the best kirby ever and a must have for DS owners so I dont see how I'm gonna dislike this one honestly.

As for the recomendations, I have everyone of those in my PC except Zombie U, I have that on my WiiU. I hate Deus Ex HR though, everytime I give it a chance it makes me want to sleep, is boring as hell, I will never understand how praised it is.

Fair enough, different strokes for different folks.
