no, i dont. I love my Wii U



Well if we go by what's out and what is known to be coming for it I think the exclusive library is pretty darn good. New Super Mario Bros (and Luigi) U, Super Mario 3D World, ZombiU, Wonderful 101, Bayonetta 2, Pikmin 3, Mario Kart 8, Super Smash Bros, Donkey Kong Country: Tropical Freeze, Kirby and the Rainbow Curse, Captain Toad Treasure Tracker, Hyrule Warriors, The Legend of Zelda: Wind Waker HD, Zelda Wii U, Xenoblade Chronicles X, Fatal Frame V, Mario Tennis Ultra Smash, Splatoon, Mario Party 10, Mario Maker, Yoshi's Wooly World, Genei Ibunroku #FE, the list just goes on. They aren't all smash hits critically, but it's a pretty long list. And many have had a lot of polish put into them and the majority have been quite well received. So betrayal would be quite odd to feel IMO. You could be disappointed that one specific game isn't out, sure. I wish there was a Metroid Prime. But the console has a really extensive, quality exclusive library with a lot of variety.



Not really. I've had more than enough time with my Wii U to be satisfied with what we got.



The Wii U is great consoles - amazing collection of games - full backward compatibility to Wii - eshop to access indie games and classic NES, SNES, N64 & wii games. The WiiU biggest issues was Nintendo failures to get third party to support the console. The biggest problem is consumers buy the WiiU mainly to play Nintendo games and are contents with Nintendo's offering. Nintendo own success has a publisher can be attributed for the lack of third party support.

For the amount of hours and the numbers of games I own on the WiiU there no reason for me to feel betrayed. Unless, I can transfer all my WiiU and virtual games on the NX, I'll be keeping the WiiU consoles around for years to come.

I hope that with the NX, Nintendo change their approach and stop trying to lure third party but instead open up their consoles to indie and build a bigger second party house to support the consoles. I don't think that NX need to be a portable consoles that merge their handheld and home consoles. But, every handheld game should be playable and available on the NX eshops. That way a handheld new release will also be a new release for the NX. Every handheld game should be cross-buy between consoles and handheld. The new pokemon even if it was for handheld would be promoted has a 3ds and NX.

I like the Wii U but I think the console could used a graphical upgrade and I hope to play the new Zelda game on the NX next year.

Nope and thanks for the thread Dr. Vita!👍



I'd be pissed if there's no pokkén but no, not at all. I mean, there are even people who don't regret buying a vita, all consoles are bound to have it's fans.



The Wii U, at least, was aimed at traditional Nintendo fans. What's going to happen if the the next Nintendo console is aimed at those who play browser games?



Disappointed, sure I would have liked to see the Wii U turn out better but still I had a lot of fun with it. I'm unsure how you can feel "betrayed" though.



Betrayed, no, that would be silly. Wii U is not a person, it's a product. Am I disappointed with the product if it has a shorter lifespan? Not really. I got plenty of value out of it - any game system provides incredible bang for buck compared to other entertainment options like drinks at a club, a concert or hockey game tickets. Heck, my Internet/cable bill is as much as a Wii U every month.

I'm excited for the reveal of NX, and there is a good chance I will pick one up if it looks good.
