X cause i loved xenoblade chronicles to death

There is no one game that sold me on the Wii U, but the promise of what's to come (3-D Mario, Zelda, X, Pikmin 3 before it's release) and the thrill of surprises like Bayo 2, Wonderful 101 and that which we don't yet know about.

If I had to pick one though, I'd want to say that Zelda demo, but 13 years ago I learned the hard way not to trust Nintendo when it comes to Zelda demos.

Donkey Kong Country also could have sold the system to me on its own, but by the time that was announced, I was already getting one for Bayo 2.

The idea of a Zelda and Metroid one day

Bayo 2 and X.

I don't have one just yet, but for me it's simply the collection of Nintendo games. I don't think a single game could ever sell me on a console, but I want pretty much every major exclusive Nintendo is going to release. Combine this with all the Wii games I didn't get to complete last gen (as I didn't own one), the virtual console games and the steadily increasing choice of eShop titles and you've got yourself a happy customer.

Nothing as of right now. But Bayonetta 2 and X have me interested.

I bought it for numerous reasons. The greatest developer in the history of the world is on it. Beyond that ZombiU and Bayonetta are why I bought it.

I got one at launch even though the only game I was remotely excited for on launch day was Nintendo Land for a few of the multiplayer minigames...which to their credit WERE fantastic (Mario Chase, AC: Sweet Day, Metroid Blast, Luigi's Ghost Mansion, Zelda Battle Quest) when played with a group of my friends.

Other than that though, I REALLY wish I'd waited for Wind Waker HD. I'd have gotten Pikmin 3, Rayman Legends and Lego City Undercover like I did anyway, but could've saved $50 and a lot of "empty" months.

That being said, even though there was a MASSIVE drought, I was finally "sold" on Wii U the second they showed off the "X" trailer from Monolith Soft back in January! That alone would be enough to justify Wii U for me personally. Add in WWHD, Super Mario 3D World, Smash Bros, Mario Kart 8, and the promise of a brand new Wii U Zelda game and Wii U is just a no-brainer, like pretty much EVERY Nintendo system. I get them all eventually...comes with the territory of being a proud Nintendo fanboy...but I'm just gonna start being more "selective" about when I actually buy in to the systems. From now on there MUST be a high-quality single-player or online-mulitplayer game available before I'll buy in. Please hold me to this in 5 years people when they release their next handheld or their rumored handheld/home console hybrid lol! Save me from boarding the hype train until a game I REALLY want is actually available!
