Forums - Nintendo Discussion - 10 reasons why the Wii U is awesome

Pretty good points. Not all of it appeals to me (like the camera or the browser) but you make the other features sound sweet.

What's the deal about the headphones, though? It makes crappy headphones sound better? Oh, and I'm pretty sure you can use an external HD with a PS3.

I used an external HDD with the PS3 but I haven't gotten it to work with games.  Maybe it does.  I don't know.  All I was able to use it for was to watch movies, listen to music, and pics.  Couldn't save games to it or store DLC on it.  The Xbox 360 supports it but it only allowed 16GB to be used for games.  I was told that they recently doubled this number, though. 

And it doesn't make crappy headphones sound better.  Some games actually have lower volume when you use headphones (to stop you from going deaf, I assume).  It's just that you can use headphones on the controller instead of using the headphones connected to your TV.



And, of course, I didn't name EVERYTHING that makes the Wii U awesome. The games, the fact that you can use controller to control you TV/Satellite/Cable box, the upcoming TVii service, the awesome Netflix application--I just wanted to get the conversation started. Feel free to add your own awsomeness.

I really need to stop using the word "awesome" so much. But I can't. It's awesome!

Did you say you can use a 360 controller on the wii U? How!


I meant the traditional 360 styled control scheme using the Pro Controller!

You forgot porn on the gamepad. That should be #1.

edit: i should have read the whole OP first, Porn hub supports HTML5 or something so all the porn you need is at your fingertips, or at your gamepad.
