Forums - Gaming - Does Your Local Retailer Still Carry All 8th Gen Systems?

I heard stories from people on here that their nearest walmarts no longer have Wii U on the stock order list and are unable to carry Wii U units.

I looked around at all the retailers by my house and noticed that Best Buy, Gamestop etc do have Wii U units, but surprisingly Meijer did not. Meijer carries Xbox Systems, Playstation systems and the 3DS, however they no longer carry Wii or Wii U. I am in the midwest US. I checked for Vita and surprisingly units were still to be found everywhere but games were very scarce. It seems like a Nintendo problem not working with US retailers as if the US market does not even exist.

Microsoft is the best at using retaiulers to their advantage. Xbox One signs and Units everytime I walk into a store. Huge signs advertising the Titanfall bundle.

Post your general location and whether or no they still carry all the 8th gen systems in you area

Are we talking handhelds too? My local GameStop stopped carrying Vitas last I checked.

They carry everything else though.

Those 733 games man!  you heard right, SEVEN HUNDRED THIRTY-THREE!!!!




       

Every single 8th gen console has a retail presence in every major store in my area. Both Vita and Wii U actually have decent retail space as well since at places like Best Buy, Gamestop, and last I checked Meijer Vita sections usually had 30+ games available while Wii U has about 40+.

It really baffles me when people say they rarely see Vita/Wii U games at retailers and to some extent I think most people exaggerate what they really see.



PSN: extremeM
