A couple of main things (aside from my awesome game library) that really got me about the "U" so far is definitely the browser and Miiverse.

After attempting to use Wii's pitiful opera browser I didn't know what to expect, and the "U's" just blew me away.  It's fast, real fast!  Being able to hit the home button at any time during gameplay and launch the browser and it already has the game you are playing in the search, which is super handy.  pop open a couple tabs and find what you want and then hit the home button again and close the browser and BLAMMO!  You're right where you left off with the game like you never left it...you never have to close the game, pure brilliance! 

Same with Miiverse, it is awesome.  Hit the home button, load up Miiverse and post the screenshot that you had up when you hit the home button, and make a comment or add your own hand drawing.  The social community that is Miiverse is great...kinda like a Nintendo Facebook with every "U" owner.  The art that people have done using the gamepad and Miiverse is absolutely unbelievable.

There are still plenty of areas that the "U" can make firmware upgrades to further enhance and improve options and functionality...but it's a great solid foundation to start from.

Also, the Pro controller is awesome.  I have a hard time saying this, but I think it just might trump the GC controller as best I've ever used.  It's damn sleek and very comfortable.

Not knocking what you are saying but a PS4 can do those things too. Though as of right now the Wii U has the better browser. Those types of things are what makes the Wii U superior to the PS3 and 360
