i dont regret mine personally. got a good library currently and will be buying 5 more games this year for Wii U, so I'll have over 40 games on Wii U :O


I don't regret mine either: I am just disappointed in the nearly non-existant future of the Wii U.


No doubt. As  a multi-console owner I'm not really taking it as hard as most would with just one console.  We have 5-6 games this year for Wii U and currently have at least two confirmed for 2016. Afte that its a mystery. Were going to have to wait and see what 2016 brings for Wii U in its 4 year as a console,which most likely is its transition year.

 

The flipside is you being a new Wii U owner 3 years into its life cycle is that you currently have a backlog of pretty good games to keep you entertained for now

After 3 year, it does have a decent list of great exclusives. That's all it wil have, but that's good :p.



In the wilderness we go alone with our new knowledge and strength.

I bought a Dreamcast one week before Sega announced they were going to kill the console (though they did say they would support it for one year after the announcement) and dropped the price $100. Quit your bitchin', man up, and play some Splatoon. You're a kid, now. You're a squid, now. You're a kid.  You're a squid.  You're a kid.  You're a squid.   NOW!


I bought my Dreamcast on 9/9/99. Never felt cheated. =P

It was awesome while it lasted. While not equally awesome, the Wii U is still worth it. I'm only hoping the Zelda they are developing for the console won,t be cross-gen... -__-



I got my wiiu 3 weeks ago. The E3 is soooooooo bad, but i don't feel Nintendo cheats me into buying wiiu. Wiiu has released for 3 years, and there are so many great nintendo games on it. No matter what games nintendo will release in 2015-2016, it is worth buying it.



To be honest, I think I got my moneys worth for purchasing the Wii U..

Smash U, MK8, Hyrule Warriors, The Wind Waker HD, Splatoon, etc.. is already enough for me to justify my purchase. I was expecting a slow down for Wii U games (though not by this much) but I guess not everyone thinks that a handful of games is enough to purchase a console.

Nintendo normally supports their consoles for like 4 years and then let them die, so I don't know what exactly you expected.



If you're interested in Nintendo content and understand german, maybe you want to take a look at my youtube channel! :)

This I don't get. Did the bad E3 just erase from all existence all the good games already out and the ones we know are coming out?

Nope, but it makes me think that I could have saved up for the NX instead, especially if it comes with backwards compatibility.


It wont. It will have different architecture either x86 or arm



I have played great games on the system so it is impossible to feel cheated



Don't worry according to johnlucas the Wii U will sell 500 million which will surely encourage more game development for the Wii U. Seriously though Its been apparent to nearly everyone, especially Nintendo for about 18 months that the Wii U will sell less than 20 million. They know its not in their interest to spend money making games for the Wii U with such a small install base, they're prepared to start again with a clean slate with the NX

I bought my Wii U over 18 months ago and I also feel cheated. I think you can't not feel cheated after this presentation, with the console only being out for 2 years and a half.

Still, while the future after 2015 doesn't look bright, there's still at least Zelda to look forward to, and with that it'll have a pretty solid lineup, so I don't regret the purchase. If they do stop supporting it, that won't stop me from loving it - it will only stop me from buying the NX.

Actually Nintendo released an infographic about upcoming retail wii u games and said there are more to be announced so lets wait a little.
