Do you buy games for a system that you don't own?

Not usually, but I was planning to buy a New 3DS so I bought Tales of Abyss and NSMB2 last winter. This spring, though, I changed my mind and decided to buy a Wii U instead. Now I have 2 awesome games that I cannot play.

Maybe one day I will buy a New 3DS if they ever release the smaller/cheaper one in North America. In Canada, it currently costs $250 (including the power adapter) to buy a N3DS while a Wii U (with 2 games) only costs $300. It's just way overpriced, in my opinion.

Uff. So I'm not the only one who thinks N3DS is way overpriced. I mean, it is overpriced even when compared to another overpriced console! Nintendo sure should cut the prices of its consoles, cause they are impeding their sales. They are both my most-wanted consoles right now (Wii U is on top), but I'm not going to pay the current price for such outdated tech. N3DS is so inferior to Vita's hardware, yet costs so much more :-/ The games are also much more expensive. Crazy.

 

OT: I've actually been thinking about picking up MK8 and Bayo2, even though I won't buy the console until they cut the price. So yeah, I always buy games before I get a console
