Buy now folks

[That one guy 86]

I just bought a refurbished Wii U, from Nintendo. I haven't played a Nintendo game since Wii sports. I looked into the backlog of games for both Wii and Wii U and it seems like a no brainer. Will play these games, then sell my Wii u and eventually buy a switch.

[InTheZoneAC]

Pick up a Wii u pro controller for $20 or less. My recommended games:
-Zelda botw
-Zelda TP HD
-Zelda WW HD
-Donkey Kong country tropical freeze
-New super Mario u
-super Mario 3d world
-Yoshi woolly world
-paper Mario color splash
-Mario kart 8
-Super smash Bros

And all the other VC games like DKC1-3, Zelda alttp and minish cap

You forgot Bayonetta 2. Oh, and need for speed most wanted was really good too... Pikmin 3 also and the wonderful 101.

[VincentCastle]

good choice, i did the same, also give Xenoblade Chronicles X and Tokyo Mirrage#Fe a try if you want on the wii u.
And on the wii front there is Rune Factory Frontier, Xenoblade Chronicles, TLOZ- Skyward Sword, The last story, there are two fire emblem games but i did not like those, FF CC The crystal bearers, and that's pretty much it that are good games in in oppinion.

[Automatic79]

I want to purchase, just waiting on a deeper library of games.

[81BX]

Yes. Smart move. I got mine day 1 with zelda.... Now I'm waiting on a Wii u game Mario kart??? Oh well I knew what I was getting into

Switch is a lame system. I had one at launch and recently ditched it on ebay. Try before you buy folks.

[Istolla]

I tried it, and I love it. Different strokes for different folks.

[InTheZoneAC]

Obviously, but don't discredit his valid point

[Perjoss]

I don't see discredit, only 2 people giving their opinions

[Dumpling]

You're a lame system!

[EddieNX]

Switch is a great system. I had one at launch and still have it now. Buy before you try folks.

[InTheZoneAC]

Lol so true when it comes to people who buy regardless of sketchy history

[Testfire]

Still play mine every day

[Istolla]

InTheZoneAC when did I discredit his point? Also what makes it valid? It's just an opinion there is nothing to validate.

[InTheZoneAC]

Don't play stupid. Did you jump on the Wii u band wagon? What makes the switch different? How is try before you buy not a valid point?

You people are ridiculous sometimes, unless you were simply trolling me then LOL at me

[Istolla]

InTheZoneAC not that it has anything to do with my statement, but no I have never owned a Wii U.

"Try before you buy" is a suggestion, not a point being made. "The Switch is lame" is an opinion, not a valid point. So what valid point did he make?

[Razzer]

I'm enjoying mine. Play on the TV at night after work and then take the portable unit and play in bed until I go to sleep.

It does need more games. Looking forward to Mario Kart but after Zelda there look like there is going to be a dead period. That is ok though. Still playing all my PS4 games. Great year for games overall.

[0Day]

Let me clarify my reasoning... sorry. The launch titles were a bit lame to me. I love zelda but I cant justify spending the $330 (after Tax) to play 1 great game. Overall it just didn't do it for me. Mario Kart is around the corner but its just Mario Kart 8 again, so still not something new and exciting. I really wished they had a decent lineup of Retro Console stuff but the selection was really bad...Even having ARMS as a launch game would have been great, Splatoon will be fun, but again its the same of what we already had on WII U.

[InTheZoneAC]

Meh

[meganick]

But for how long...?

[superchiller]

The Switch isn't hard to find anymore, I've been in several stores that had them available and passed on it. At this point it looks like it will follow the same path as the Wii U; great early sales, then poor sales for the rest of its lifespan. Like the Wii U before it, the Switch has very few 3rd party developers on board, it's just another Nintendo machine, not enough to make it succeed. Without substantial 3rd party support, the system is going to fail.

[Athos]

Yep because after a strong opening month its obvious its gonna flop. What a dumb comment. Also it has great 3rd party support, and personally I like that the games wont be exactly the same games as on my PC's and PS4's.

[Testfire]

I've never seen one in a store in my area, and I've searched even after I bought mine weeks ago (forced to buy from reseller). By the time I get off work in the afternoon everything is gone.

[meganick]

The Switch will easily outsell Wii U. Remember, roughly 60 million 3DS owners are ready to switch over to Nintendo's newest hardware, not just Wii U owners. It's not hard to fathom 40 to 50 mil life time sales, maybe more, who knows?

[wonderfulmonkeyman]

Aaaaaand it's sold out again.XD
