Indiana Jerico said: The only reason why the Wii U was a horrible purchase since launch was due to the horrible lack of games. That has been rectified since then. There really is no reason not to own one now, unless you're one of those "Bbu-bu-bu-but HARDWARE! And POWER!" type of guys, which is moronic anyway. Nintendo is the last bastion of pure gaming. Sony and Microsoft are all for graphics and flash, although Sony seems to want to go back to the awesome PS1 days. Really, Nintendo offers different gaming style and it should be an awesome companion to either "hardcore" consoles. === "Plans? What plans? I'm making this up as I go!"
Indiana Jerico said: Feedback about the controller is that it's supposed to be real comfortable once you try it out. And Off-TV play is supposed to be an awesome experience. Right now, Wii U has Pikmin 3, The Wonderful 101, ZombiU, Lego City Undercover, NSMBU, NSLU and (for those who missed it the first time around) The Legend of Zelda: Wind Waker HD. Then, in the next couple of months, there's Sonic: Lost World, Donkey Kong Country: Tropical Freeze, and Super Mario 3D World. Now, those may not be the cup of tea for some, but they are games which won't be found on PS4 and Xbone. And from what I hear, those games are all quite good/great. Like I said, the Wii U will be a good companion console for the PS4 and the Xbone, most of which will probably share the same genre/multiplats anyway. Really, right now, the problem that Nintendo should overcome is to have people actually test the damn thing. === "Plans? What plans? I'm making this up as I go!"

Especially when the Vita is out already it's possible the earlier SKU's wont have that feature. I mean as for the Wii U, ins't the tablet control pad is what making it hard for Nintendo the drop the price (which in turn hurts their sales)?
