Yeah, Wii-U was an ultimate fuck up and a mad cash grab attempt at something that was really a fluke to begin with.

My Wii is sitting in a storage bin somewhere. Last time I saw, it had so much dust and grim on it.

Admittedly for a little while we thought about getting a Wii. It was mostly my brother than me. I can't even remember for which games but the two I looked at (Mickey, NMH, and HOTD Overkill) came to PS3 anyway..

I went ballistic when Tekken Tag 2 first appeared for consoles at the Nintendo E3 conference. I thought it was an exclusive!

I'd like Nintendo to just made a console like they did before the Wii where you had a normal controller. Sure you can get the pro controllers but having one be the main controller would make more developers use it and have it be less hassle. As it stands there're about 5 controllers for the Wii U which is just ridiculas.

I own a Wii U but I only own Nintendo games and as for games that I'm intrested in they're also all Nintendo games. All of these I would be happier to have on a console with an Xbox/Dualshock type controller. At first I thought the touchscreen on the gamepad would be cool for games like Zelda but after playing Pikmin 3 I just found that it just feels odd. It just doesn't feel natural to stop looking at a giant HDTV and then down at this tiny screen in your lap.

I still can't wait for games like Mario Kart and Smash Bros as Nintendo make amazing games.

Really only want a Wii to play Fatal Frame 4.Oddly enough they are somewhat rare to come by in my area.Way before Nintendo announced the cease of production.

Yeah, I liked a couple but they all ended up on PS3.

Then oddly enough came out with the Wii Mini..

Who ever made that comic, was trying a little bit too hard. Although I like the point.
