It actually has games and more games on the way without endless delays. Plus Nintendo funds or contributes to things like Devil's Third, Fatal Frame, Bayonetta, and Xenoblade Chronicles. It seems as though they're the only company that actually cares about games and gamers at the moment.

>>253290349
GTA consistently sells fantastically well and gets all the critics hot and bothered. What other metrics do you fucking want?

CoD4 was one of the most fun multiplayer games. Yes they went psycho and started releasing it every fucking year with like 5 changes and some new maps (and some rehashed ones) but it was a fucking great game. Personally I'm not into FIFA games but loads of people are. But in addition to that you've got stuff like MGR:R, Bayonetta, Tomb Raider, all kings of shit. Stop being a fanboy

Honestly because it sort of feels like what the 7th gen should have been like.
>Updates to games are seamless, download and installs in the background
>Far majority of first party games run at 60 fps
>If a game is 720p, it is upscale on the console side instead of the TV so it reduces input lag
>Games actually run at least 720p instead of the sub720p resolution most ps3 and 360 games ran out
>Can use previous gen controllers
>eShop doesn't feel like it's cover in molasses like the PS3 PSN
>System updates adds features to console instead of taking them away
>And yet the OS runs a lot more fast than it did at launch instead of just feeling bloated
>No update every other day due to security reason, fuck you PS3, why do I need to update every time I turn you on?

Honestly the thing I really enjoy about the Wii U is how slick all the games play, the games just feel so much more responsive than what I played on the 360 or PS3.

I'm 26, mate and I don't have to resort to ad homs to make my points. I think I am probably smarter than you. The public likes the big mac cos it tastes good. Lil Wayne is popular cos he raps about bitches and bling to good beats (aka mass appeal) and justin Bieber does the same thing with a pretty face. I understand why those things are popular. But the only metrics you can look at that are worth a damn are sales and critical opinion. Anything else is just your piddly little opinion and the thing about opinions is that we all have them. Yours, however is worthless to most people

It's better than playing it on a console. The video games are at home on the PC, because that's where all development starts, and it lacks the taint of watered down console hardware. Plus, we enjoy the power of customization when it comes to control schemes. We're not limited to a measly 2 choices like most consoles.

It's okay, pretty good for the price. It has loads of great exclusives, with a lot more coming, but it's also gonna miss out on loads of third party games to be released on PS4, XBone and PC.

The Wii U is worth getting, just not as a replacement for a proper next-gen console. The best choice for that would be a PC, if you can just spending ~$700 on a video game console

As a Wii U owner, what 10+ worthwhile games does it have?

SM3DW
DKCTF
Pikmin 3
W101
MK8

What else is there? WWHD is an enhanced port. MH3U is on 3DS. NSMBU is the definition of a rehash. Sonic Lost World made Sonic shitty again. ZombiU was a rushed launch title.

Not counting yet to be released games.

>>253303347
Whole 20 games for 9 years. That's really good. The best deal you can ever have.

>>253304751
Different anon opinion here.

NSMBU can be counted only if you got Luigi U with it.

Lost World Free DLC makes it pretty ok.

ZombiU is decent but I would see why you wouldn't count it.

I myself prefer MH3U on Wii U but I would see why you wouldn't count it.

WWHD can only be counted if you never played WW.

If we are counting multiplats then TTT2 is best on Wii U, if not then please disregard.

For now I currently have 9 games with one being a multiplat (TTT2), one being MH3U, and last one being WWHD (which I never managed to beat back in the GCN days)

So for now there are really only about seven real exclusives that I have but the upcoming games will change it to the double digits.

>>253305723
I agree that Luigi U kinda sorta redeems NSMBU a bit.

And, I'd also add that Rayman Legends is definitive on Wii U.

But yeah, for me, that still doesn't equal ten worthwhile games. I can see people getting WWHD if they never played the original, but even still that's not ten worthwhile games.

I know anon. But if you want to add another multiplat I heard that Ninja Gaiden was pretty good. But yeah as a Wii U owner myself I hate the fact that people exaggerate how many games it has. Sure it has more then the other two but it still isn't much if your worthwhile exclusives aren't in the double digits. But it will be there soon with Bayo, X, SSB4, Yoshi, Kirby, Devil's Third, and whatever the fuck else is coming out.

Why should Nintendo go software only?

Their entire philosophy revolves around using software to sell hardware. They've been doing this for 20-30 years.

If they went software only, they'd have to pay licensing fees. They would also have to downsize.
