Wait for the 10th generation Nintendo console: the Nin10do !
Now seriously I'm in the same exact situation and, since you mentioned Zelda U that is one of the games I'd like to own, I'd tell you to wait until NX as I decided to do: the lack of Metroid is HUGE for me, as well as such an high price in his third year knowing the poor specs. for the games I'm gona miss out I'm not really concerned: if NX isn't backwards compatible (and it's rare to see such a thing with a Nintendo console) then I'll get all of the games I need via E-shop or maybe even remasters/better versions, after Zelda which most likely will get a dual release (with something better in the NX version) there are lots of games that Imho might get re-released since they didn't get the attention they deserved on Wii U, as well as games that are building up for sequels (aka Splatoon) and so on...
