I know.... I know.... I just think PS4 needs a little more exclusives before I buy one my self.. and also I would've kept my Wii U instead of sell it and just make money a different way.


Getting a job and working is a great way of making money. Personally I find it's a better option rather than go around selling stuff to buy other stuff.

Just because one chooses to sell stuff to help pay for other stuff doesn't mean they don't have a job. In fact I would counter the smartest of working consumers do just that. They are disciplined enough to recoup some of the cost of ownership by reselling an item and then use that to help offset the cost of another item thereby mitigating a portion of the impact on their money.

I have a great job and I ALWAYS sell my old consoles (sometimes like with my 360 I sell them before they are old) to help pay for my new console purchases even though I could afford to just keep them and buy another if I so desired. It helps me stay on budget and allows me to keep on gaming while not wasting more money than I otherwise would. Seriously, put that money into a mutual fund or some type of savings instead of stocking up on old dusty hardware that your wife will eventually start nagging you about anyway. Saves on headaches IMHO. Not to mention you lower the price barrier for others trying to get into a console down the road. Sold my PS3 on ebay with some great games and they paid around $200 for the whole lot! They got a deal and I got half of my PS4 funded. WIn, Win.

Depends on what games you like, personally my favourite games so far are Infamous Second Son, Wolfenstein: The New Order, Sound Shapes, Assassin's Creed Black Flag, Resogun, Don't Starve, Transistor, Tomb Raider and Lego Marvel Super Heroes.



Don't let all these Nintendo fans get to you man, they are all butthurt from you selling their system lol. Really though if its your only console this generation then you made a good decision considering that the PS4 is going to have tons of multi-platform games that will not come to the Wii U, as well as some pretty awesome first party games from Sony itself. Some games I would recommend for it right now are Infamous, Killzone, Resogun, and The Last of Us remastered since you missed out on that game last generation.

I hope that when you say, "recommend me some game", you mean additional games from the ones you bought the console for. You shouldn't buy a console without knowing what games you are getting.

As for games to get, I could only recommend Octodad.



Well If you already made the switch,lets pick games that wiiU don't have:

First thing:

Buy the PSN+ year! if you really want to save money;

then:

AAA you should have right now:

Assassin's creed 4(if you didn't have on WiiU)
Rayman Legends(if you didn't have on WiiU)
Tomb Raider DE;
Infamous Second Son;
Watch Doges;

AAA that maybe you should have imo:

Killzone Shadow Fall;
Thief;
Need for Speed Rivals;

AAA that are coming and you should watch for:

The Last of Us(GOTY last year);
Metro REDUX;
Destiny;
GTA 5;
Drive Club;
Little big Planet 3(Nintendo kind of game)


Games you shouldn't buy(don't do this with yourself):

Brokenfield 4;(great game but full of bugs)
Call of duty: doges;

Chill out people. He can buy back a Wii U later when it's discounted if anything. Meanwhile he can enjoy his PS4 which he most certainly will.

Oh well, Good Luck with your ps4! I would have stuck with the wiiU but I understand that sometimes, its good to try something new and I am sure that eventually, the ps4 will have great games that people really want just like how the ps3 was! I will get mine as soon as it has more exclusives that I want! (Most likely when MGS V PP comes out)


Ironic...



Ignore the trolls OP, enjoy your PS4. In terms of 1st party + 3rd party I think it's the best combination, and if I could only afford one console then I would definitely go with PS4.



Sigs are dumb. And so are you!

Sorry but that is probably the dumbest move ever. I wouldn't sell my Wii U knowing that some of the best games of the year and next year are coming out to it. I feel like you should have waited for the PS4 to get a price drop before getting it, because by then the games will be plentiful and right for the picking.

This especially and even I would even recommend other PC gamers consider a PS4 or an X1 over the WII U.
