I was pretty hyped, but it kinda died down by the time it got released.



"Just for comparison Uncharted 4 was 20x bigger than Splatoon 2. This shows the huge difference between Sony's first-party games and Nintendo's first-party games."

I can safely say my level of hype was lower than any other console/handheld release in history for the WiiU.



Didn't even know about it.



Not even close. For any of the consoles this gen.
None of them launched with worthy games imo



Around the Network

Yes. I was psyched. I also got a whole load of their good launch games that I hadn't played before hand. Well worth the purchase actually.
I'm a little sad at the bit of a drought that has been happening of late, but it's a good system in general.
Still a few I plan to pick up and likely enjoy. Or at least hope to, Devil's Third is in that list lol.
I don't regret the purchase.



Gotta figure out how to set these up lol.

I had zero hype for the Wii U. You could smell it was a bad idea from the start. I was hyped by Super Mario 3D World and the promise of more games, so I bought one. Big mistake. Without an exclusive Zelda, it's not even deserving of existing. If you have a 30-year old pattern of Zelda releases, you don't break it. Plus, a lot of the games Nintendo released are budget or kiddy. Even kiddier than on the Gamecube or Wii.



Was, mostly because of Sonic & All Stars Racing Transformed and Warriors Orochi 3 Hyper.

But it was the first HD Nintendo console, so of course I was hyped... But also sad because it was the Wii's retirement, so much fun with it.



No i didnt care about video games at that time



Not even a little bit. It took over a year and a big sale to get me on board.
