Should Nintendo talking about the Wii U successor scare me from buying one?

No, what should scare you is

- Purchases of the same game on virtual console are not shared across from 3ds or to 3ds even if they're both linked to the same Nintendo ID
- Installing games or updating games takes a lifetime
- There's very little worth actually buying
- WiiTV is just a glorified TV guide
- Default battery in tablet sucks
- Unless you have wooden walls don't expect to get more than a room away without losing connection to the base console
- Only launch game worth your money is zombiu
- Bundled box weighs more than a ps3 fat boxed did
- wires, wires fucking everywhere.
- For some inexplicable reason all Japanese consoles released after the GameCube do not allow system language go be changed
- region locked, screw you Nintendo.

U have that many complaints including "very little worth actually buying", yet u bought a second Wii U?

I have a laundry list of complaints for every console, yet i still buy every console despite them.
I bought a second WiiU to use as the primary, as I am currently using the first WiiUs tablet as a makeshift development kit for testing software.

Would you rather hear a list of complaints from someone that has no financial investment in the product? because that sounds stupid to me.

The thing that stood out was saying it doesnt have many worthwhile game but u still bought a second one, that seemed odd to me. It makes sense now that u explained its for development purposes.

When the herd loses its way, the shepard must kill the bull that leads them astray.

Take it from me. I've been around since most of these posters aren't even alive lol. Wii-U is a safe buy. It won't break records and it'll be slim on third party games, but it'll be here for the full five year cycle. So buy it and enjoy.

Well if they made the decision to abandon the Wii U ship before the next holidays it would be the lowest selling console of the modern console era. So it would make your Wii U something of a rarity and hence might be worth quite a bit of money in a few years.

If Nintendo stay committed to Wii U until 2016 there will be quite a few good games released between now and then and you should enjoy at least some of them.

So it seems like a bit of a win-win either way really.

Like it always happens, development of the successive gen starts soon after current one launch. Both haters and daydreaming fans are damaging Ninty by blowing this normal fact out of proportion.
