The Wii U is a joke of a system and anybody who says otherwise is either too young to remember Nintendo or too stupid to accept the truth.

It is a nice system and I use it daily. I wish it had 3rd party support. I really do. It's pretty much a Nintendo box, though, and I don't see that changing. Thankfully, I have a PC to cover any missed 3rd party games.

Um clearly you just don't see the brilliance that is the WiiU.

Bro it's cutting out the fat of gaming libraries on other consoles, and focuses on the purity of gaming bro. Why would you even want to play a Wolfenstein: The New Order or something like Valiant Hearts, when you could be playing Hyrule Warriors.

True excellence my dude.

And this is why you don't go Wii U only. I still love the system, but I wouldn't be able to make an entire generation with only the Wii U.

Yeah 3rd party is practically non existent. Thanks for telling us the obvious. It still has enough games that I want and exclusives I can't miss to be worth a purchase to me.

Just watched the video. It was actually very informative. Hahaha :P

This.

That said I don't have a good reason to go new gen yet with the other consoles. So PS3 and Wii U are just fine for me for now.

I don't buy Nintendo consoles for 3rd party games and it would not bother me one bit if no more 3rd party games ever released on the Wii U; I have a Xbox One and PS4 for that. I buy Nintendo consoles for quality Nintendo games and I feel that Nintendo has been doing the best job that they have done since the N64 at delivering great games on the Wii U.

Would I be satisfied with the Wii U as my only console? Hell no! But it has a great library of exclusive games that makes it well worth the purchase as a companion console. In fact, at the moment, it has by far the best library of AAA games of all the new gen consoles and I play it way more than my Xbox One and PS4.

I have a ton of great games for Wii U!

Super Mario 3D World

Pikmin 3

Lego City Undercover

Lego Batman 2

Lego Hobbit

Mario Kart 8

Lego Marvel Super Heroes

Assassins Creed 3

Assassins Creed 4: Black Flag

Call of Duty: Black Ops 2

Call of Duty: Ghosts

New Super Mario Bros. U

New Super Luigi U

Mass Effect 3

Donkey Kong Country: Tropical Freeze

Nintendo Land

Ducktales: Remastered

The Legend of Zelda: The Wind Waker HD

Tekken Tag Tournament 2

Deus Ex: Human Revolution

Resident Evil Revelations

Splinter Cell: Blacklist

Star Wars: Pinball

Batman: Arkham City

Batman: Arkham Origins

Darksiders 2

Injustice: Gods Among Us

Ninja Gaiden 3: Razor's Edge

The Wonderful 101

That list doesn't even include all of the awesome virtual console games I have, or all of the great upcoming games like Bayonetta 2, New Legend of Zelda, Star Fox, etc... plus it's fully backwards compatible with the Wii, so it's definitely worth it imo. I actually have way more fun with my Wii U than I've ever gotten from my PS4 thus far.

wow
so unprecedented
much partnership

Regardless of their actual quality *cough* Colonial Marines *cough*, so many of these games (Here's the list for anyone curious, btw) have a strong casual appeal that bring in the numbers for Sony/Microsoft, whether by licencing fees or later buying Sony/Microsoft's own games. Now, whether it's the fault of third-party groups for not trying or that the casuals simply never came, I don't know, but the fact of the matter is the WiiU's missing an entire demographic. That's not good no matter how you spin it.

Exactly we can't judge the WiiU against its competitors based on the quantity of games not coming to the WiiU and this crazy notion that the other systems have more games.

No we have to judge the WiiU on the handful of games it gets a year, because otherwise we'd have to deal with choice paralysis. Nintendo are visionaries in this regard.

As I said on the comments section on the video, yes, the third party support is a disaster. But on the other half, how many people were going to give a damn about Wii U third party support even if it had it? I still won't forget what happened late 2012.

EDIT: Additionally, look at the sales charts of their systems and look what games lead the freaking pack...

SNES - You know, the "best" Nintendo? The one with all the third party support? Bar one game, look who still leads.

N64

GC

Wii

GB

GBA

DS

3DS - You know, the current Nintendo system to "have" third party support?

Yep...

First and foremost, if you want to play third party titles or multiplats, PC is the platform of choice. That leaves you to choose a console with the most quality exclusives that can't be found on PC, or any other console. That console is Wii U.

I got a Wii U not expecting much 3rd party support, I got a Wii U strictly for Nintendo content. Pretty much the same thing went for the Wii, not just for me but for tens of millions of Wii owners who did nothing more than buy Nintendo IPs. Playing all those other games not on the Wii U, that's a reason to go buy an XBO or PS4. Again, I chose to get a Wii U to play Nintendo stuff, I had no illusions that the Wii U would be basked in next gen multiplats.

The thing is, the real idiots are those that expect anything more from the Wii U, like this guy in the video and everyone else that agrees with him. That's like ripping on your ice box for not making toast.

Meh, I think its been wildly accepted that as a STANDALONE system its not worth much.

But as a companion to one other system its by far the best choice.

Have MY PC ... my Wii U gets more use than my DustStation4.

When was the last remake of a Mario game? Seriously, do people understand the MEANING of the term "remake"? Remake is something like Metroid: Zero Mission, Tomb Raider: Anniversary, Pokemon: FireRed/LeafGreen + HeartGold/SoulSilver, MGS: Twin Snakes, RE(make) 1, and Mega Man: Powered Up. Not every follow up to a Mario platformer.

It's exactly the machine I predicted a few years ago. I wasn't surprised when I bought a Wii U at launch once the last gen specs were revealed. The tablet controller further ostracized the 3rd party publishers.

It's Nintendo.

Yes as a gamer why would I want options in terms of a bigger library, when I can know I'm getting the games that sell the most. The **** would I want choices for when I can have the most successful titles. Thank Christ.

Wii U's a bust, I really hope Nintendo gets its act together for the next round. The only pity is that this coincides with what might be Nintendo's best output in years.

Also, pro tip guys, if you ARE buying a Wii U, don't do it for third party games, that's just asinine.

I fully intend to buy every 3rd party game on the Wii U. Well the decent ones. It doesn't bother me that Wii U doesn't have the big 3rd party games. I got a PC that handles that. But I needed a Wii U for was exclusives I can't get anywhere else. Not just the first party stuff but the 3rd party stuff. Zombi U, TW101, Sonic Lost World, Bayo 1 and 2, Hyrule Warriors, Devil's 3rd, Sonic Boom etc. etc. I think there's more 3rd party exclusives on Wii U than on the other systems.

It's an okay platform as a secondary, but it'd be nice if Nintendo released more games for it.

If it's going to be a Nintendo first-party box only then I want more than one interesting game every 6-12 months.
