If we talk past tense, I owned both a Vita and WiiU. I don't regret buying either.
Vita introduced me to Persona, Persona 4 Golden was incredible. I also enjoyed Wipeout 2048, Gravity Rush, Uncharted GA, Ratchet/Sly Trilogy, Rayman Legends, TT Walking Dead, LBP. I got a decent amount of use out of it and as I had PS+ for PS3 already I got a lot of free games for it.
WiiU I really didn't use for much, I basically bought it just for Mario Kart. I played a little bit of Mario Party 10 and Wii Party U but that's it. It was just an MK8 machine for me.
Both were very cheap when I got them though, about the £140 mark. Imported both from an EU Amazon site for cheap.
WiiU I got a little after MK8 released and Vita I bought December 2012.
