Yay! The World's Worst Selling System has survived the 2 year mark! (CAN YOU BELIEVE IT?)

It's been one heck of a ride, but it made it. It surpassed the life span of the Dreamcast.

Bravo WiiU.

I'm sure many of you were there when it launched (all 2 of us) though most of us just picked one up along the way and many probably just got one for Smash!

With that said, Since the WiiU has been on the Market for 2 years now, What are some of the best games for it?

and is it Still the Worst System in Market or does it have a Chance against the Almighty Xbox One and PS4?

Regardless The WiiU shows off the Best and Worst of Nintendo and we should note it's existence and look forward to the Future!

Thanks for Bayonetta 2, Nintendo and PG.

Got mine Day 1. Many glorious experiences have been had thus far. Mario Kart 8, DKRTF, Hyrule Warriors and Bayo 2 have been awesome thus far. But all of those will pale to the amazingness that arrives Friday. 8 player smash will be happening all weekend long!!!!

i think the strong sales of its games kept it afloat...

did dreamcast have any game that sold even 1 million copies?

@KBFloYd: Both Sonic games, SoulCalibur, and Shenmue, I think.

Also, comparing the Wii U to Dreamcast's sales trajectory is disingenuous- by the end of 18 months on the market, Dreamcast had little over 5.4 million units sold worldwide. Most of its sales to 10 million came from the fire sales and discounts to $49 once stores started to off load stock after Sega announced its discontinuation.

vgchartz says soul calibur did 400k

sonic adventure 2 did 200k....this cant be right?

sonic adventure1 did 3million.

shenmue did 1.2 million

Ooo good job what games did you get? :D

I bought a Wii U and I got Super Mario 3D World, Mario Kart, Hyrule Warriors, and...Other M (which is, well...different). It's a fun system though!

Such a great system, the Wii U. Best game: Super Mario 3D World (10/10 in my book).
