I brought my PS4 and Wii U last month. The ps4 for myself and Wii U for the kids. I can't believe how much more fun I'm having with the Wii U vs the PS4 right now. Currently playing zelda WW and Mario 3d land and nintendoland and my family is having a blast. Don't even wanna turn the ps4 on to play watch dogs because MK 8 is such a blast to play. Wii U is good for party games and it certainly a blast to play at my home because of the kids. But I can also understand the singl...
Nintendo's own online store have been selling those for 200 for months.
Because it gave me so many memories and my early childhood was spent in front of an NES, I would have to leapfrog it to second on my personal list.
Snes, NES, PS1, then PS2 for me.
Do you want a cookie or an award for this insight of yours? And exactly how much "fun factor" is gonna be taken out of the game because of the lower resolution?
Is Wii party U a game that little kids can enjoy though? I am purchasing mk8 but thinking about wii party u to get as a free game for my 6 and 4 year old to enjoy.

I got a refurbished wii u on their site two weeks ago. Just a suggestion they also offer refurbished wii mote with nunchuck for only 20. Might as well get it along with the console so you dont have to pay shipping twice. Been kicking myself for not purchasing one because its the best deal around for an official nintendo wii mote plus nunchuck controller minus the shipping charge.
Im on amazon now and the onlu thing im seeing are the bundles for pc.
It always is. Remember the games of e3 2013? Other than rushed launch games most of the heavy hitters ended up being released in due time by 2014. Some have also been announced as being delayed till 2015. Halo 5, Division, Ff 15. I would not be surprised to find announced games for e3 2014 being pushed till 2016.
Nintendo online store is selling refurbished wii u for $200. Comes with the normal one year warranty and nintendo land. If you preorder Mario Kart 8 from dell.com you will get a $25 egiftcard for future purchases plus an additional 10% egiftcard rebate on all purchases if you are a preferred member.
Put it this way, it will cost me $260 for a Wii U and 3 games, nintendoland, mk8, and a free game. I will then also have $31 in free rebates for accessories or another game. <...
Its more fun to argue about consoles because nobody is playing their consoles right now. I just wish games wouldnt take so long to come out. I have both a ps4 and xb1 and the only thing Im playing right now is my Android Nexus. Go figure.
Those hoping and are still talking about the Wii U hopefully retaking the sales lead are out of their minds. Nintendo have no chance this generation. Not with the other two power hungry machines on the market and certainly not without 3rd party support. Stop with your childish wants of putting the Wii U on some type of console war with Ps4 and xb1. That ship had sailed.
What has finally happened is the Wii U will finally have that killer game that most fans have been wait...
I brought a refurbished nintendo on their online store days ago only $200. Can't wait for MK8 and the free game. Don't knock on refurbished items, I got a refurbished xbox 360 4 years ago and it still works good.
U also get nintendo land with this deal. Mk bundle does not have it.
I brought one yesterday. Shipping is definitely not free. Its 5 dollas for standard. Plus tax. Good deal though.
The problem, Alduin, is as much as the quality of the CoD series have dropped over the years, the gameplay still outperforms current competitors on the market. As bad as Ghost has been, I simply can't find another shooter that I can waste my time on, and that includes BF4, and even Titanfall. I still find myself going back to CoD with my friends because for some reason or another, the other games have NO lasting appeal. I'm all for trying new things but unless the new things perf...
The funny thing is, had MS concentrated on their core console specs in the first place instead of focusing their attention on the cloud, the kinect, the controller, the swiss army OS of theirs, they wouldn't be in this mess of trying to nickel and dime their console in order to gain 5% 10% 20% more processng power that in the end still wouldn't compare on an even level with the PS4.

Actually if I recall correctly, Sony didnt need to show anything to win the E3 showing. They just needed to show two things that won it for them, 8gb GDDR5 and a $399 pricetag. Microsoft on the other hand did everything in its power to ruin its reputation it has built up over the years with fan from its 360 brand with the DRM announcements. Games were an afterthought at that point.
I might be in the minority here when I say ATB system bores me to death now. Maybe its because I've played the heck out of these jrpg's growing up or maybe I'm more used to the faster paced actions of the FPS genre. But whatever the case, the ATB system is no longer something I want to play with anymore. FFXV so far looks like it has an action oriented battle system with I am very excited about. Hopefully it will have a cultivating storyline of past epic final fantasies instead...
@Gamingtruth
I agree 100% with your thinking. The loudest heard are always the critics. But the franchises that are successful will always have their silent fans that will buy something entertaining to them.
But bro, you gotta learn to add periods to your text and break off your thoughts in paragraphs. It was very hard to make sense of what you're trying to say.
I've long blew past the idea that Wii U is going to be neck and neck with the PS4 and the XB1. I mean just look at the specs. How do you compete when its known that your specs fall more in line their previous gen consoles than their new ones.
But I brought a Wii U 3 weeks ago to go alongside my PS4 and loving every minute of it. I dont even really care personally if it has no 3rd party support. I can get all the 3rd party support I need from my PS4. Already have Wi...
