Only when at least five huge games that I wanted were already on the shelf. Buying the Wii U based on what I ASSUMED would later come ended up leading to some...feelings. I still love the thing, but I would have gladly waited for a more reasonably priced bundle and more games. Instead I shelled out $350 and ended up doing a whole lot of waiting.

this is alot shovelware and if they increase the handhelds hardware on wii us level they wont be able to put that many good titles on handheld as they do know. nintendo is just one publisher. they cant.

Nintendos ead teams are 50-100 men strong. their biggest project was zelda skyward sword with 120 ppl involved.

on games like the division or star citizen 400-600 people are working on. nintendo cant compete on this level.

Well that's enough info for a console purchase...I don't need to know what the games are just that they were made by Nintendo...

If we make this same poll next year (when Zelda Wii U is at E3 and hopefully they learn from this year and go in full force) I wonder what this same poll will be then?

Well, if Nintendo go all out at launch, and if I have enough money, then day 1. Imagine a Nintendo console launching with Zelda, a 2D Mario, a 3D Mario, a Mario Kart, a 2D Metroid, a 3D Metroid, an F-Zero, a Star Fox, a Super Smash Bros., Splatoon 2, a Fire Emblem, an Animal Crossing, Mother 4, a Kid Icarus, a Pokémon, a Donkey Kong, a Kirby, a Yoshi, a Wario Ware, a Punch-out, an Ice Climber, a Xenoblade, a Pikmin, a Duck Hunt, a Yokai Watch and 3 new IPs...which will never come close to happening, but it would really tempt me!

I'll throw out a general comment of fan boyism. SOME people will rule out buying their brand of choice in spite of anything. Notice how whenever there is a good anouncment on one side, the other side bands together to downplay it?

In any case I chose Never because nintendo consoles have been a poor choice for general entertainment for years now. I used to get all brands but from the wii generation, Nintendo Stopped caring about parity as the wii's games looked like Game cube games. That was the begininng  of the end in third party support. And I grow tired of Nintendo's rinse and repeat reahashing of their old games.

The same thing happened with the wii u, but it's far wose. a console that's support has been dropped in such a short time and a new one released in the middle of a generation has doom written all over it. 

Even if they manage a system more powerful than the ps4 and regain the 3rd party support they were lacking, I'd consider it a dead investment. For one thing, I believe I have bought my last game console. With each generation it feels more and more of a waste to get a console over a pc.

I don't know how else to say it, but I honestly don't see it being a worthwhile investment.

Yes I will... but I hope it's a 2017 launch.

The sad thing about this is  that it's actually believable after seeing this year's E3.

That's a shame to hear, but as with any system, I think you are missing out on a whole lot of great games, maybe you just need to be less picky about what 'kind' of game you play. Some are really great. I can think of about 10 must buys on the Wii U.
