Ill still give that to the N64.


N64 had Rare back in the day.

I know. Doesnt help the N64 to me. Banjo, Conker and DK64 are great games.....when played on a different system with a good controller.

Just a reminder that Nintendo lied/was misleading about this:

Nikkei was right again. I also said this at the time but a vocal group of Nintendo fans here tried to deny that report.



This console deserved so much better. I think in 10 years it'll be valued in the same way Dreamcast is today.

Continuing support means releasing games, not manufacturing more units.

Lol are they even doing that after this week?

One of the most Hyped Nintendo Game this gen is still coming to the Wii U in March!



Pocky Lover Boy! 

Some very good games but i have hated the wii u from the beginning, can't wait to pass it on to my family and move over to NS.

No goodbye bundle with a big price cut?

I sold mine a while ago but i would buy it again for 250$ and a game.

Production of several components likely ceased months ago. They were just slow rolling out the last batch of units over a few months. Nikkei was dead on once again.

lol You acting like you want a 199$ deal!

 

It should have the deal that you want on holidays because it's not a big deal. heheh

Although, if you're not from North America, then...



There will be no official price cut, but retailers will likely start slashing/taking a loss on units just to clear stock, so if you want a Wii U, I'd suggest waiting a month or two.

Probably by January of 2017, retailers will get desperate to get rid of any remaining inventory and you'll be able to score one for cheap.
