Forums - Nintendo - WiiU competes with Wii, lacks casual games

 

WiiU launch

will struggle due to lack of casual games 15 24.59%
 
People will want to upgrade. 46 75.41%
 
Total:61

Today my colleague asked me for advice. His daughter doesn't want to play his Playstation,  and he knows I'm a Nintendo fan. So he asked me my advice, should I buy the WiiU or get a second hand Wii?

His daughter loves games for girls, casual motion games, and apparently there is everything for her liking on the Wii. He will also prefer to save money as he doesn't have much money to spare atm. So at first I told him the WiiU was future ready and has some casual games, and is a much better multimedia device than the Wii, and also has a great online community system. Ultimately it boiled down to the games, and the Wii had everything he needed.

Do you believe the WiiU will suffer for lack of casual games atm, or will people want to upgrade regardless?

Well then he shouldn't buy anything but peanut butter, ramen, and bread.

pics or it didn't happen.



Maybe I must be misunderstanding, because I read this as "Wii have more casual games than Wii U". If that's the case, yes, a six year console has more than an unreleased one.
