Wow, you idiots really fell for that lie Reggie told you?
Wii U is NOT better value than other consoles. Here's why:
- Wii U bundles are priced $300.
- Since Nintendo did not have the decency to include a hard drive, you have to spend MOAR $$$ to buy an external hard drive before you can even THINK about using the eshop.
- A typical 500GB hard drive is $50.
- So already, the wii u is $350.
- For the same price of $350, you can get an xbox one. It is quite a bit more powerful and future proof than the wii u. You will get all the third party support you are missing out. It will run the latest games (albeit not at the same level as a PC or even a PS4). Xbox one can also play blurays and dvds which the wii u can't.
- Xbox one also has better online services than the wii u. And please, don't bring up the subscription fee for xbox one. It is very small and you get free games in return. Wii U online on the other hand is dead. Call of duty is a ghosts town on the wii u and vast majority of wii u games do NOT have online functionality to take advantage of the free online.
- Of course the wii u online is free! What is Nintendo even going to charge you for when there miiverse servers are empty as a graveyard. Don't bother bringing up free online.
