It seems like Switch pretty much fills the need for both, but I still think both systems have really great libraries. Since Switch isn't BC with Wii U, you still have lots of games to play from. Vita will be seen as a cult classic years from now, just because there are so many niche games you can play on it. Wii U will still has solid AAAe titles that may or may not make it over to Switch. You can also still play Wii games on it. For now, I'm keeping them. I think they are worthy of keeping in a collection. How about you, SW? Any interest in these system?

I'll be getting both since they'll likely be cult classics in a decade.

When I get a Switch I'll still keep my Wii U, I still have my Wii as well. I'm a collector though so I keep all the systems and games that I buy.

I never sell my consoles. Besides the Wii U has some excellent exclusive games that you can't get anywhere else and can also be modded to play every single previous Nintendo console's game library.

Why would I get rid of the Wii U or Vita? The former has a lot of amazing exclusives, and the latter is great for imports.

Keeping the WiiU around for Bayo 2 and Mario Maker... honestly if Bayo 2 gets ported I'll probably just get rid of it.

I'm keeping my Wii U, not because I think it's good (I've enjoyed more games on the PS4 in the last three months than I have in 3+ years with the Wii U), but because I just don't get rid of my systems in general.

I don't get rid of consoles but I have neither, nor a 3ds of any kind.

I'll possibly get all at some point down the line.

Own both, plan on keeping them too.

Remote play on vita alone makes it worth

@aigis: Remote play on Vita sucks since it doesnt have 4 trigger buttons and missing other features required in the games. Thats why no one uses it.

Another thing, you might as well keep your Vita, the resale is a joke.

I play Vita everyday before going to sleep. Mostly about 15-30 minute sessions, but sometimes longer.

And I use it a lot of remote play as well. I bought overpriced Vita grip that has L2/R2 so it plays fine now. It's just.... the day I got it, the manufacturer decided to make more of them, effectively slashing the price down to 1/3.

I'm keeping my Vita, the games are getting cheaper.

I would love to get a Wii U, but damn that thing is not going down in price at all.

Traded in the Wii U while I could toward my Switch. Somewhat regret it only because I have no idea when I'll get to play Bayo 2 again, but I'm hopeful that CEMU will save me.

Still have my Vita, it doesn't fetch nearly enough to be worth swapping it so I use it as a paperweight and mildly entertain the idea of going back and playing some games from my backlog on it. Maybe I should keep it near the toilet for extended sessions and remote play my PS4.

I sold my Wii U in a stint of financial difficulty, but I want to repurchase it one day. I can't let Super Mario Maker pass by me; it's the only game I have never played in my favorite franchise. Besides, more than a handful of interesting Nintendo games have come out for Wii U since I sold it. I think Super Smash Bros. for Wii U and Bayonetta 2 were the last two games I bought for it.

Never owned a Vita, and my owning a Switch makes me less inclined to buy one, though I think it's a cool handheld.

I have a second hand Vita and I like it. I own no games for it, though. I just use it for movies on a 64GB memory card that came with it. I rip the DVD I own, convert the file type using Handbrake, and transfer the file to the Vita from my PC. Kind of a pain, but ultimately worth it.

The little thing has a nice OLED screen, long battery life when just watching movies, and 64GB can hold a crap-ton at its native resolution. And probably the best part? I don't waste storage/battery life on my phone that I use for web browsing and other phone stuff while traveling and have no outlet readily available. Watching movies on my Samsung Galaxy S6 Edge chews through the battery like you wouldn't believe.

I have never owned either. Nothing on the Vita ever interested me enough to get one and the only game I really wish I had got a Wii U for was Mario maker. Finger crossed for a Switch Mario Maker!

I def. want to get a Vita before they stop producing them. Would love to see a random price drop, -- otherwise will have to get second hand. A Wii U would be nice, but is less compelling to me.
