Now let's look at price. Wii U wins again.

Wii U PS4 XBONE
$299 $399 $499

What about the multiplat games though? Everyone's a winner.

Game Wii U PS4 XBONE
Call of Duty Ghosts X X X
Assassin's Creed 4 X X X
Watchdogs X X X
Battlefield 4   X X
Batman Arkham Origins X***    

But what about the graphics?

Wii U PS4 XBONE

Great graphics
A lot better than current gen

 Great Graphics
A lot better than current gen

Great Graphics
A lot better than current gen

Factor in the Wii U gamepad being included at no additional cost, and the Wii U is by far the best buy this holiday.

So if you are planning to buy a PS4 or XBONE at launch, why aren't you getting a Wii U instead?

 

 

*Also available on 3DS

**Remake

***Lacking multiplayer

Because I want next gen features and a console that will last 4 years...not one where people are asking if it will last 6 months.

Also to say that the WiiU has next gen graphics is a flat out lie and you know it. It does not support all dx 11 features and the memory pool is too small to be next gen.

Uh...  this is wrong.All of this is wrong

 

Are you seriously telling me this?

 

OKay for every idiot who thinks the WiiU isnt worth the 300$ you pay for it you're really gullible. Like those fools who listened to Sega's (Nintendo isnt cool for such and such reasons ) back in the day.

Everything you think you know is  wrong. Point blank.

Well this thread has been entertaining at least.

FWIW, I'm not buying a Wii U later this year because I already have one.

I am getting a PS4 though.

Give it a year and the PS4 and Xbox One will have twice as many games worth playing than the Wii U does.

^And if the majority of those can be played elsewhere?

Maybe, but we know for sure the Wii U won't have: Metal Gear Solid, The Witcher 3, The Divison, Destiny, Battlefield, any major sports titles, Final Fantasy 15, Kingdom Hearts 3, Dragon Age: Inqusition, Lightning Returns, and so on

Now its you who do not seem to understand the argument.   Simply answer this question.  Gun against your head, which console is more likely to get a R* game in the future? 

PC. Yes, you said console, but consoles are not all platforms for games.

I don't say WiiU is more likely, that you seem to construct out of my argument. I only say, it is not certain that it will come to both consoles (PS4/XBOne).

Here's something that might interest you.

Games this gen from Rockstar that aren't on PC.

Red Dead Redemption
Midnight Club Los Angeles
Max Payne 3 
Grand Theft Auto 5
LA Noire (Rockstar collaboration.)

Games this gen from Rockstar that are on PC.

Grand Theft Auto 4

*edit*

Was informed that Max Payne 3 and LA Noire were released on PC.

And if they can't?

Out of the 100+ games I own on the PS3, only 37 are playable on PC.  Not even half.  Majority is more than half btw.

We also know for sure PS4/X1 won't have  Mario 3D World, DK Country TF, Mario Kart 8, Smash Bros., X, Bayonetta 2, Zelda, and so on.

My point its too early to tell, yes PS4/X1 will have more games cuz of third party support but we dont if all games will be better am I Right?

FFXV and KH3 are debatable. Since they wont be out for another 2 years.

I dunno, I think if COD:Ghosts sells well perhaps they'll put Destiny on the WiiU(Bungie was on Miiverse, the amount of My Body is Ready in the trailerP. EA gonna EA. Konami gonna Konami till they make enough money.

All of Enix's stuff runs on the WiiU just fine. So if the sales pick up and they can make a profit they'll put the games wherever
