The Wii U actually has good games. Not exclusive movies and multiplats you can play on xbox or pc

Yeah games that were good when they were released on GameCube.

Hint: kids aren't building $2500 PC rigs to play multiplats

Right, I enjoyed Wonderful 101, Bayonetta 2, Splatoon on gamecube

I don't know why you think the particular store you shit heads were at speak for everyone.

The Wii U bundle was the best deal. Cheap as fuck and you get two really fun games.

So have casuals finally found out that the Wii U exists after 3 years?

>>318097365
No, kids want it because other kids have it.

Games don't matter. Advertising matters.

Americans aren't Japs. Wii was a stupid name. It would have flopped if it weren't for soccer moms wanting to waggle.

Wii U is even more dumb and confusing. Not to mention Nintendo thought, well, the wii sold well, i guess we never have to advertise again.

Nintendo made the wii u sale bad. They could have called it pretty much any other name and added another ten million on their sales.
>>
>>318097806
>kids
true, but i also know people in their mid-twenties who get consoles because their friends have them
>>
>>318098210

That's just life man. People are impressionable and they also want to be accepted.

So they follow the herd. Most people can't tell you the difference between the ps4 and xbox game wise, they just get whatever their circle of friends get.

>>318098772

No, because I'll get a refurbished one from Nintendo. I don't like the games being pre-installed. It takes up too much room since 32GB. That's a load of bullshit.

You should be using an external HDD anyway. Games like Xenoblade Chronicles take up more than 32GB.

Not him but my Wii U will be a Xenoblade machine for the foreseeable future. Already beat Fatal Frame and removed it.
It almost doesn't seem worth it. The loading time difference is minuscule.
>>
So what games should I buy first? I was thinking maybe bayonetta 2. Didn't play the first and would like to play through both. My GF said she wanted wooly world.
>>
>>318099046

Why can't it just be a 500GB console? What was Nintendo thinking? Why do I have to get so much extra shit for the fucking Wii U?

>Pro controller
>GameCube adapter
>External HDD
>Another pro controller
>Ethernet adapter
>Amiibos

This bullshit is why I'm so hesitant to buy a Wii U. Yes, I am mad and this is exactly why I didn't buy a Wii.

Outside sf5 I get everything I want on my xbone, no need to get another console. My backlog is still huge.

At the Best Buy I went to all but two of the Smash/Splatoon sets were gone, but they had a shit ton of the Mario Kart ones. A lot of the PS4's were gone too. Then they had a shit ton of Xbones seemingly untouched, like twice as many of the other two combined.

I bought a Wii U for my family today, got the last one they had in stock. They had a mountain of Xbones and PS4s there though.
Of course, they could have just had more stock of those.

I worked at a target last night I came around 11:30 did some looking around before my shift and saw quite a bit of ones and PS4 left. After nine hours of work only like 2 or 3 ones sold and 3 or 4 PS4 sold. Wii-u were sold out fast from what a co-worker said.

Because that bundle is shit.

You won't see a stack of splatoon smash last.

Also, the fat neckbeard that took that probably waited until they finished stacking that shit in the store and took the picture as soon as it was finished
>>
>>318100162

>by selling at a cut price, with two free games, and a TV all for $500

That's not really a victory. They've had to cut the price too soon, package it with two free games, and bundle it with a discounted TV to get any notable sales.

Spending $2000 on video games is more indicative of someone who has never had to work for money in their life. Regardless of the circumstances, buying every console and an irresponsible use of money.

It's not hard to have a bundle sellout when you undership it. Nintendo always under ships products to increase false demand. See: amiibos

But this is the latest in a SERIES of hits. They can only take so many hits without zero payoff. Like that's what the sales are supposed to do. They're supposed to offset the losses by selling more software but they aren't offsetting the losses because they just aren't moving enough units. So it's nothing but a string of losses.

$5000/month salary is about ~$95k a year. Most entry level jobs don't make anywhere near that much. Also, when you don't live with your parents, you need to spend money on things like

I worked today but most places have sales all weekend. I might go shopping tomorrow, but mostly for clothes. Could use some chinos, sweatshirts, and long sleeve shirts. I know GAP is 50% off everything so maybe I'll check that out. Maybe Macy's or Levi's as well. Cheap stuff, you know.

>Dong Freeze
>good

Stop fucking saying this. I personally got this game based on /v/'s recommendation and it was complete ass. Absolute trash. I guess you have to already love DK games to enjoy it, but as my first DK game I put it down after about 3 hours and never touched it again.

>b-b-bu it was too hard for you g-g-git g-gud

Nah it wasn't hard at all you fucking sissyboy kucks. If you honestly think Dong Freeze is hard you're extremely bad at video games. It was just boring as fuck and unfun to the max.

I'm sorry for getting autistic but Dong Freeze is constantly posted as one of the Wii U's best games when it really fucking isn't. I wasted 60$ on that turd and I won't let you nostalgiafagging shills scam anyone else out of their money.

What's even more infuriating is that /v/ constantly shits on Hyrule Warriors despite it being in the top 5 best games on the Wii U. It's my first Dynasty Warriors game and I have 200+ hours in it. I also bought the Heros of Hyrule pack because it's so much fun, and I never buy DLC. It's an addicting game with a buttfuck load of content, and it never gets old. Meanwhile Dong Freeze is an underwhelming boring 2D platformer that you finish in <20 hours and then drop. Even if you don't like Dynasty Warriors gameplay, it's a million times better than Dong Freeze's.

tl;dr, if you're looking to buy a Wii U, do NOT get Tropical Freeze, no matter what the nintendrone shills say. They're only saying that because of nostalgia. You will instantly regret paying 60$ for that flash game. You don't have to get Hyrule Warriors (although I recommend it) but whatever you do, learn from my mistakes and STAY AWAY FROM DONG FREEZE

I honestly feel sorry for you because your gaming experience is so severely limited and dependant on meme's. I even said as a metal gear game, it wasn't great, this is coming from someone who has played 1 to GZ several times.

You really need to get your head out of your ass though because as a AAA action game it is a dam fine piece of entertainment. As a MG game, once again, it lacks all the iconic things everything that makes metal gear gear great but it redeems itself with quality gameplay in which you can easily clock in over 60 hour. If you haven't played current gen exclusives you are seriously missing out that's all there is to it.

It's nowhere near as bad as we want to put it, it;s important to make the distinction in saying that it is a bad metal gear solid game, as a AAA acton game is passes with flying coloured, compared to shit like Battlefront, Fallout 4, Assasins Creed it blows them out of the water without even needing to lower the bar.

I stand corrected.

Not only is it a reskin but it's also a complete and utter downgrade to the original game aside from the graphics.
Mechanically the game has been watered down horribly and the only reason it's popular is because it has that hard game thing behind it. I mean, how is a game hard when fucking Arin Hanson can beat it of all people with minimal frustration?

It's not a re-skin or a rehash though.

I mean you could do a better job saying 3DWorld is a rehash (it's not) or that Link Between Worlds is a re-skin (still not).

Nintendo never released anything like a level designer utility.

>Others did though

>>318106616
I wanna hate you, but I find that I actually agree to some extent with some of your points. I'm glad we didn't have another Brawl (even though I liked Brawl) but I don't like some of the changes to Smash 4.
Mario Kart 8 made several great jabs at making the series great again, adding new elements and bringing back favorites, but Battle Mode is a steaming pile of shit and honestly 7 might have done the whole thing a bit better.
I'm not into Warriors blah blah games so no comment
I like Super Mario Maker, but I like all the Mario platformers so it's made for people like me who like the series.

I've played several titles I liked on Wii U and I still have some I want to play or play at length. Nintendo Land multiplayer and the Donkey Kong game are great, Mario 3D World is interesting with friends with good visuals and a fantastic soundtrack. Lego City Undercover is a good bargain bin title, even if it does fail at being a "GTA clone for kids." And Tropical Freeze is the best use of the Donkey Kong franchise in ages. I don't get how most of /v/ doesn't understand that "it doesn't have grimdark games, shooters and strategy games? It's shit" will never be a valid argument.

Fuck Nintendo for dropping the ball on third party support again, though.
>>

There is no argument. You're saying that Nintendo wont have anymore games because "just you wait." Like they're just going to stop supporting the Wii U because there's another system being made down the road someday.

>>318108095
1. I didn't say anything about microtransactions.

2. The game's story is shit, it was rushed and the level design is just awful. Ground Zeroes one area is a better location for sneaking than any single sub-area in Phantom Pain, which is horrendously bad.

You are some retard Kojima fanboy who likely keeps checking for "THE RUSE CONTINUES" threads in desperation for anything that would allow you to believe more content has been secreted away.

And "just wait" is all I care to say anymore because I'm tired of convincing idiots that the writing is on the wall. Whether or not you can read it doesn't concern me anymore. Even if I could convince you, what would I have accomplished? Helping a moron accept the inevitable? The inevitable will come to pass with or without your acceptance, so just wait for it. I'm pretty sure the NX will be unveiled next March so you don't have long to wait anyway.

And yeah, if you look at Wii support, it pretty much ended BEFORE the Wii U came out. There might have been a trickle of shovelware shit, but no AAA-tier titles. We're arguably already in the shovelware-trickle of the Wii U when you look at games like Mario Tennis and Animal Crossing Cashgrab Edition.

Usually at this point in the conversation I say something like "Face it, the Wii U is over" but I really don't give a shit anymore if you face it or not. Continue being oblivious, you've clearly earned the right

Normies (the people who buy stuff en masse) won't be buying Black Friday stuff at Gamestop as much as Wal-Mart/other big box stores like that.

Because a lot of the exclusives that made Sony consoles worth a purchase have gone multiplat or are available on their previous gen system like KH, Persona 5 and Dragon Quest Heroes and the rest are remasters with only a graphical update so there's no losses when you get it on a previous console.

Hell, not even Final Fantasy 7 is an exclusive anymore.

On the bright side alot of our Wii U games stock was gone, even older Wii titles. Lost out on some good games because I couldn't grab anything before my break. I'm just gonna plop down for the Wooly World Yoshi bundle and Mario Maker.
