Regarding the second point: How is getting almost every multiplat game out there hell? And do you realize that the crushing majority of PS and Xbox consoles are bought for multiplats? The exclusives are just the sprinkles on the cake for most and looking at 2015 it seem that at least the PS4 (the X1 probably as well) is going to have more then enough sprinkles.
Also regarding 3: That the Wii U is almost exclusively a Nintendo game machine (meaning there are hardly any non-Nintendo games) is not a misconception, so if you don't care for Nintendo then you won't care for the Wii U. And to change that up they'd need third parties.

It's hell because there's nothing unique about the console.  It's an exact mirror of the Xbox One.  If someone has one, there is no reason at all to get the other except if they want one of the half a dozen odd exclusives which they may or may not like.  

Once again, that point is overhyped...  Wii U while not comparable to Microsoft and Sony has a pretty good number of third party games which are exclusive to the Wii U.  Not to mention those games are pretty damn decent.  Yes it's a weak point, but not nearly to the point that it's been made out to be.  

yes those are opinionated thoughts, but so is the author who made a thread like this in the first place.  If you don't wanna hear it then don't put up a thread like this.  

Just so I get this

PS4/X1: No point in getting both because they share multiplats and you would only get both if you want the exclusives

Wii U: Makes total sense to get one with a PS4/X1 because you don't have the multiplats on the Wii U and would thus only get it for its exclusives...?

I hope you realize how ridiculous that argument is, unless you're seriously going to try and tell me that the Wii U is going to have such an substantially larger amount of exclusives than the competition (don't bet on it) that it makes much more sense for a PS4 owner to get a Wii U as a second system instead of an X1.
