Forums - Gaming - Should i trade my ps3 in for a Wii U?

 

What should be my Secondary Console for this gen? (PS4 primarily)

Wii U 258 72.68%
 
PS3 97 27.32%
 
Total:355

Get a Wii U. It's also backwards compatible with the Wii, so if you need a JRPG fix you'll have it. I'd only hold a PS3 if I really, really wanted to play Persona 5, otherwise I see no reason to stay with it(unless your model is a launch one fully backwards compatible with PS2 games).

Blood tears they selling at a loss, selling at a bigger loss would make no sense



Wii U ofcourse. Getting a PS3 as a secondary console will be redundant as most games will be multiplatform for PS4 also.



Your profile picture says it all haha, but thanks for the reminder of the backwards compalibilty.



Keep your PS3. Get a Wii U when the games you want are on it.

The thing is, i already own a PS4 :P



No, don't do it. I got a PS4 myself, but that thing doesn't qualify as a main console right now. Not enough games and we are in for a drought the next few months. Also, you would miss lots of great ps plus games. No free games on Wii U. But if you really wanna have those Nintendo games, get a Wii U without trading in your PS3.

Well that u even think about switching to wii u, shows that the ps3 cant give u the love u need.

Ok now i leave you alone, but i tell you get a Wii u



Not a bad idea if you're going to wait for the PS4 library to build up steam. Do it now, wait a year, get a PS4 possibly with cooler bundles next holiday season.

It's still surprisingly ridiculous that the PS4 isn't backwards compatible... but that's a different story.

Yes, you should. I would've said no if it weren't for you mentioning multiple Nintendo games that you liked that are either coming out soon or are in known development. However, the end decision is up to you, of course.
