I bought my PS4 for Arkham Knight. I played City , Blackgate and origins on Wii U so really got into the series there, but knew the latest game wasn't going to come to that system. I picked up the remasters on PS4 as well so I could play Arkham Asylum and complete the series. Regarding Nintendo, I always buy their systems at launch, it's all about Mario and Zelda.

I bought Wii U especially for Smash. I bought overall about 10 games. But Smash play time amounts to more than 90%. More than 850 hours of play time just for smash. So, If you think it that way, yes this console is just a Smash machine. I still enjoy it even though the left stick doesn't work properly anymore, and the moves fail :p

Prepare for bewilderment lol.  I’m more of an online gamer and I have no interest in other ps4 exclusives.

Although, what else does the ps4 have online wise that’s exclusive?  Please don’t bring up The Last of Us because I’ve played that on the ps3 and that was just a crawling simulator.  ;)

I wouldn't say I ever bought a console for only one game in specific. Like when I bought a PS3 for FF Versus XIII that was a big factor in the purchase of said PS3 but I knew there were other games I wanted as well. But if H1Z1 is all that interests you in the potential purchase of a PS4 then I personally wouldn't even consider the console for just one game, no matter how badly I wanted that one game.

Just my two cents though.

It's happened to me quite a number of times, such as the N64 for Mario 64, the GC for melee, the PS2 for DDR, I can list more. The way I see it, buying a console for one game is like dipping into the pool. Once you're in it, there's a sea of games open to you, and there's bound to be more titles that interest you.

I already have a PS4 but I bought a Pro partially because my PS4 sucked ass with a shitty controller that was losing it's touch and also because I wanted extra frames in MHW

I bought the Xbox One X for PUBG. I tried to justify it by telling myself I was also receiving a 4k blu-ray player. While I waiting for it to release since I preordered the Scorpio edition, I ended up ordering Halo MCC, Halo 5, Ark Survival, ESO (again...have on PS4), Forza 7, and Nascar Heat 2.

Once it released I have added to my library several of the free games with gold, and purchased Elite Dangerous at a special price.

So far it's still PUBG that I'm playing, and now with all the BC I'm enjoying the decision of my purchase even more. I own the physical copies of Jade Empire and Morrowind on the original Xbox, and most of my Xbox 360 games are playable on the One.

Moral of my story...even though I have bought a console for just one game, I end up with a bunch more. The beast that is my "backlog", only continues to eat and grow larger.

You should never buy a console for just one game. That would be a bit silly in my opinion. But there are many other games that cater to a variety of tastes and are only available on the PS4, so perhaps, after buying the PS4 for just one game, you will then widen your net and pick up other exclusives.

I bought Switch for Mario Odyessy, and Xbox One X just for Sunset Overdrive. I ended up getting other games to try out, but those were the only games I had to have the console for.

Now I am excited for Donkey Kong Tropical Freeze on Switch, and I am playing Super Lucky's Tale thanks to Game Pass.

I got a Philips CDi for the three Zelda games...

I got a Switch for Breath of the Wild (I of course got more, but BotW was the sole reason I got it despite having a WiiU)

I got an X1 for Sunset Overdrive.

I got a WiiU for the Zelda remasters.

Got a GBA for the Zelda games.

I got a 3DS for the Zelda remakes and Zelda DS backwards compatibility.

Yeah...I have a problem lol
