No. It would only be worth it if you were a massive Nintendo fan. But if you were, you already would own one. Smart play is to wait for the NX. Wii U support will be completely dropped once it comes out, like with every other Nintendo console. Its just not worth it when you can just wait.

>coming out before the end of the year
where does it say this?

You can play NES, SNES, N64, GCN, and Wii games so it's pretty gud

>>322934192
So can my PC. And I already have one of those.

>>322934192
You can do the same with a softmodded Wii

>>322934236
In that case don't bother. Wii U emulation development is in full swing right now.

>>322934356
Who here doesn't have a PC that can play at least up to Wii? I mean, thats like 4 year old laptop tier.

>>322934338
except you can't play XCX, Bayonetta, Pikmin 3 on Wii

>>322933749
Yes, NX is not coming this year. No, [insert analyst here] saying it will is not an official confirmation.

Stop making these threads.

>>322934765
If a random blogger saying he thinks the Wii U is probably profitable per unit is treated is irrefutable proof that it is, I don't see why an analyst is somehow completely ignorable.

I have all three. Probably used my XOne the most, but damn if WiiU doesn't have great features. If you don't have friends though I wouldn't bother.

>>322935841
If only emulating those backwards compatible games didn't give a 10 times better experience.

>>322933749
There is literally like 5-10 decent games on PS3 half of which were released in the last two years of console life. The same situation about original Wii and pretty much every console ever. Best shit always released at the end.
If Wii U is gonna die soon, it's pretty obvious soon we'll be flooded with good stuff.

>>322933749
If you can find it for 150$ with some games, sure.

300$ isn't worth it.

>>322936181
What IPs are you counting on?

I'm hoping for a 3d mario, fzero, hoping star fox gets better, also hoping for a main metroid entry

>>322933749
No, fuck no. Even its current library is shit.

Wait for emulation, and I say this as a Wii U owner.

is it really worth it to buy a wii u ever? at any point? I've sold two of them already.

>>322936181
That's not how Nintendo works. We get filler or no games instead.

we know literally nothing about the NX

the release date you hear on /v/ is speculation

>The Wonderful 101
>Bayonetta 2
>Frozen Dong
>Splatoon
>Super Mario 3D World
I bought a Wii U about a half-year after launch, and I'd say it's worth it, but for most people I don't think $299 is that great. Chances are the games I listed are gonna get ported to or have sequels on the NX
