Thinking about getting WiiU for my birthday. Should I go for it?

Now, I've been eyeballing the WiiU for quite a while, and I'm planning on getting it for my birthday.

However, I don't really know of any good titles.

The only ones I can think of at the top of my head that I'm considering getting are:

Super Mario Brothers WiiU

Monster Hunter

ZombieU

You guys have any other recommendations? Is it even worth getting a WiiU at this point in time?

I'd wait for E3 before getting one.

I'm just hoping that they announce something related to a new smash bros. or somethiing :). Now that would be awesome :D. 

My vote is no, hold off for now.

I just bought one 2 weeks ago and i dont regret it in the slightest, iv just completed ZombieU and it's fantastic. Nintendoland is also great for a quick blast every now and then. I would wait until E3 though just incase the announce a price drop or something, not long to wait for that.hyperjj3000

I never expected to put in over 30hrs in Lego City Undercover and I havent even found half the hidden items yet. I would recommend that game for sure. 

.........Let me answer for Jaysonguy though since he hasnt chimed in yet, "no its a waste of money blah blah blah blah blah blah I like to be a negative Nancy".....hey thats close! :P

Well I work at Gamestop and my manager has told me that Nintendo is planning their first price drop somewhere between late summer and fall. I haven't gotten a wii u yet(which is shocking considering I am a die hard nintendo fan) because of the lack of titles that I was looking for. I am looking forward to the new Zelda(omg kill me now can't wait any longer), Smash brothers 4, Pikmin 3, and maybe the windwaker hd remake. Personally I'd wait but if you want it dude go for it. Oh and Earthbound on virtual console :Dknightofhyrule1

Yes. Get ZombiU and Lego City Undercover. Fantastic games.

No. Plz don't buy that garbage system. Nintendo is going down in flames and you will barely have any good games to play outside of bland rehashes of the same old IP's while you watch all the awesome content flood out the gates for PC,PS4, NextBox. Nintendo deserves the consumers distain for its failure of a console. If you go Nintendo, go mobile. THATS IT.

Thanks for the feedback you guys :). I think I will go ahead and wait until after E3 to see what Nintendo says regarding a price drop, hopefully there is one :).

I got one for Christmas, and as a gaming console, I find it very hard to recommend at this point. If you really want one, though, I'd suggest the ZombiiU bundle. Not a bad deal for all you get. donalbane

I want to want the Wii U, but there's nothing that interests me on the system.  Honestly, with half of the games out in the first year ports of games I could play on my PS3 or PC, why would I buy one?

Right now the future of this system looks grim.  I'm hoping there's something intriguing in that Nintendo Direct they're planning before E3.

I'm also thinking about picking one up, but I'd get it after the price drop.  As of right now, none of the games are really that appealing to me.  I was hoping that with the Wii-U, Nintendo would get some more RPG's in there, but aside from the upcoming Project X, Nintendo has yet to deliever.  In all honesty, I think if I didn't love the Zelda series so much, I probably would have passed up on the Wii-U and gaming in general.
