u bbuy a system early because thst is the one u want no matter what happen at least the first year. u ended up wasting money. it's ok, you bought a system with more titles but its a 7 years old system u at least should have saved for the PS4. The Wii U have years to live, at least more than the PS3. You got to learn how to manage yourself.

I would have kept it for the Nintendo games. I mean trading it in for a PS3 seems shortsighted to me. The Wii U has more of a future than the PS3.



na you didn't lose money the wii U will probably be 200$ 2 years from now you can rebuy it if you want later



Bet reminder: I bet with Tboned51 that Splatoon won't reach the 1 million shipped mark by the end of 2015. I win if he loses and I lose if I lost.

Still kinda shocked actually. The other day I packed up my WiiU and brought it to Ebgames. With the 32gb console, Blop2, Zombie U and NSMBU I got over $200 trade in value ($200 for the console alone + like $80 for the games).

With that money I got a 500gb PS3 super slim, LBP Karting and 1 year PS Plus.

I just cannot see the future of WiiU looking good!

There are no games and there don't seem to be many coming up within the year that interests me!

The Wifi is garbage with no ethernet ports!

PS4/720 are coming around the corner with a baseball bats!

I just dont want to be stuck with a Dreamcast. So I figured I would cut my losses and trade it in while the value is high. And believe me this hurts. I have always loved my Nintendo systems.

Did I react wrong? Will I regret this?

 

 

 


I think you are lying, your avatat says NINTENDO TILL THE END.

So proud of you.



Yes you will regret it. I mean you only gave it 4 or 5 months before you decided to get rid of it.

compared to GOW: A,The Last of us and beyond two souls........Plus the backlog of ps3 games.



If you've been wanting to play games right now, then I can't blame you. Just having a Wii U at the moment doesn't seem very fulfilling. I could better understand the "wait and see" advice others are giving if you had another active console. In my opinion, you should keep that PS3 until at least The Last of Us releases, and maybe beyond that depending on what third party publishers end up doing. Sony is still supporting the PS3 big time through this year.

And the multiplat games on PS3 that the Wii U won't get, and he has + so he'll have access to more titles. Better deal for sure.



 

Playstation = The Beast from the East

Sony + Nintendo = WIN! PS3 + PSV + PS4 + Wii U + 3DS
