So is it good to buy Wii U NOW ?

[ShadowSoldier]

I'm going to reiterate getting the books.

Boy you need to back your ass up and realize that books are useless ever since Wikipedia was invented

I was wondering whats a BC and DLC

If I' m reading that right, it's Backwards Compatibility and Downloadable Content. Acronyms are prone to being re-used though, so a close second interpretation would be Birth Control and Downstage Left Center.

I voted no. But if money is not a problem... Why not?
It'll probably take some time for a price cut, since they are supposedely selling it with no profit.

I wouldn´t buy it at this moment. I have a PSX, PS2, 360, WII & PC. But I really feel that this console needs something extra to be worth it. Like:

Final Fantasy 7 Remake
Wind Waker HD
3D Super Mario
New Zelda
Some good RPG´s

As it is right now. This is a big no-buy for me. If I want to smash zombies in first person, I can take out my Condemned 2. There´s nothing new to see here.

Although. Nintendo is Nintendo. Their Gamepad is a fantastic innovation and I wish them all the best!
But another part of me says that this might be just a new Dreamcast.

As a pretty neutral gamer. I am amazed by the lack of "blockbuster" games this console lacked at release, and also how indifferent the gamers are acting towards the Wii U. It just haven´t had any impact at all. Maybe Nintendo blew their fuses with SMG 1 & 2 and Zelda TP & SS. But we´ll see.

I'll buy a WiiU when the new Zelda comes out.

Getting a launch Wii paid off last gen. DMS drive for the modchip era and vulnerable Boot 2 for the softmod era.

 

[Devin]

Backwards Compatibility, and DownLoadableContent.

But some WiiU owners say that their WiiUs came with vWii mode already on it.

 

[Eerpow]

That said, it WAS severely underpowered and it DID affect the overall library in, in my opinion, a negative way.

Fact, not only your opinion, even Nintendo themselves says that regarding the Wii.

 

[Taleweaver]

Welcome to the future; the Wii U is dead, BotW came on Wii U and was a launch title for the Switch, (similar situation to Sushi Striker with the 3DS and Switch) Nintendo Switch Online is a thing and only has NES games, yeah. I'm sticking with my Wii U, until I finally break down for a Switch and sell it. Not to GaymStop though. Oh that, and aauth for Switch allows for nintendo to eat piracy's lunch, poop it on them, and spit on the combo. No cake or grief counseling either...

...did you really necrobump a seven year old thread to post news of two years ago?

Maybe he opened his microwave while posting.

I would be glad to receive a D-post from 5 years in the future, telling me if big N finally did something with the Metroid franchise, if handheld consoles can fit in a pocket again and if the SMACHZ is still delayed.

Wii U can run NATIVELY gamecube, wii and wii u games, that reason is enough

Could you tell me what guide to use to mod my Wii U? Want to play some old Gamecube games and the one or other Wii game. Thanks in advance

Did this hack two years ago, there are very good tutos online https://wiiu.hacks.guide/
Latest updates even let you convert your gamepad as a full handheld console with nintendon't. GC on a couch, sheer happiness.

I never plugged my U to a TV

Thanks mate, will give it a try
My Wii U's gamepad's battery is whack though.. Do you have any tips with that or are you just constantly charging?

 

[Bladexdsl]

Me too...
At full charge, after two hours of Arkham Origins or Metroid Prime (always on gamepad screen), bam, red dot.

So yep, as far as I know, constant charge is the only solution for this crap.
But there seems to be 20$ long lasting batteries on mamazon...
