Friendly reminder that this was a system that was

>made you rebuy all your old VC games at full price

>didn't even include a charger for the Gamepad in the box despite requiring the Gamepad to navigate the menu
>still used friend codes until its second year
>had an abysmal launch day filled with shovelware, compared to the PS4's launch window of exclusives such as Destiny, Infamous: Second Son, and Bloodborne
>didn't even start getting worthwhile games until three years in and which were all ported away months later anyway

>was fully emulatable within a year

Makes a nice piracy machine. Was nice to play botw for free a day before release. Also got all the DLC for free now.

Shame it has like 10 worthwhile games but at least I can run my entire gamecube and Wii library off an SD card.

>>384837993
Would've been way better to wait for Switch and use the Wii for piracy

>>384838117
I got the WiiU for 100USD on craigslist, came with a bunch of games and peripherals that I ended up selling. Bought an external HDD and a high capacity SD card and loaded it with everything.

I own a Switch now and regret buying it to be honest. I have botw + dlc for free on WiiU, got bored of ARMS in a week, have no interest in Splatoon 2, and all the games I want for it aren't coming out till late in the year or next year.

>>384838263
I agree ARMS is complete shit. Should've started the thread with that honestly

>>384837993
It'll have 0 by the end of the year if the ports keep up, making it the first truely worthless game system.

Let's not forget that expensive fucking gamepad was fragile as fuck. Both my friends had to end up paying $130-150 for repairs even though it should've been in their warranty period.

>>384838406
I'm not the OP, I actually enjoy my WiiU and Switch. WiiU was fun for party games with friends and it's good for playing all the older nintendo games via loaders or VC.

Switch is a nice concept and it will be great once it has more games.

>>384838263
I've been having a blast with Splatoon 2 for what it's worth. That and Disgaea 5 have racked up the most hours on my switch. I wouldn't dismiss it because of the art style if that's why you're not interested.

>>384838591
It's not the artstyle. I actually think the game is very aesthetically pleasing. I love the colors and aesthetic. I just don't like twitchy third person shooters, tried to get into the first one and didn't like it.

>>384838591
Disgaea 5 is the worst in the series. Killia makes me want to not play it

>>384838546
>it's good for playing all the older nintendo games via loaders or VC.
You can do that better on PC, with mods and other stuff

>>384838702
Fair enough. You probably wouldn't like the second if you didn't like the first.
>>384838713
I don't play for the story, but to satisfy my autism/ocd. It's better than the other games in the series in that respect because there are more knobs to fiddle with. It's fucking comfy in bed too.

>>384838795
This is true but there's something very nice about laying in bed playing games on the tablet screen. It's the same reason I like the switch so much.

I own a high end gaming PC and I have CEMU and Dolphin on it. I just prefer to play in bed on the tiny screen because I may be slightly autistic. I also play PC only games in bed with a bluetooth controller via steam big picture mode.

>>384838795
This, Wii-u is most worthless piece of gaming hardware ever made. Everyone who bought one should be rounded up and gassed as part of an idiot cull. Not even useful for fucking piracy, and that's when you know you fucked up worst

Oh boy, are we still trying to act like the 3DS version of WiiU games are comparable to their WiiU counterparts at all? Smash is the closest one and it's still shit compared to the WiiU one.

They're a budget alternative for shiteaters, nothing more.

I get relatively the same experience with BOTW on WiiU. I can't say the same for Mario Maker, Hyrule Warriors, or Yoshi Wooly World on 3DS.

That would be a ton of fun to play with your friends, all huddled around the 3ds taking turns playing smash.

Oh come on, that's probably hyperbole. I'm sure at least some of it's right but fuck if I know

Does anyone outside of obsessed fanboys and autists actually pay attention to the details on that stuff? I just skip over every Nintendo-related I see when I read the news and just absorb what I know about them from osmosis on forums after all the PR bullshit has long been filtered out

Couldn't be arsed to know how powerful it is or what's on it to begin with. Only finally learned shortly after the Switch came out it wasn't a tablet addon for the wii. Thought they were still trying to compete with the PS4 with a re-cased gamecube these past few years.

This is just fucking stupid. I love the 3DS, and I don't really use my Wii U except for BOTW, but some of the most fun I had in college was getting groups of people together to come over and play smash while we got fucked up. It worked because everybody and their mom loves smash, but not everyone is going to have or autistically bring their 3DS. Having a bunch of autists sitting around with their faces in their 3DS just isn't the same as sitting around on the couch where everyone can be a part of it.

>>384842363
PS4 was always better. It got Infamous Second Son 3 months after it came out. That game is way better than the shit that Nintendofags used to shill Wii U, like 3D World, Hyrule Warriors and fucking NSMBU

Not everyone owns a 3DS dipshit, but everyone has played smash, so even the normies that came over had fun with it, it even got some of my comp sci friends laid for the first time. I really don't see that happening with everyone sitting around with their handhelds.

>>384842559
Because quality doesn't have any indication on sales. Call of Duty, Minecraft, etc are the best selling game series of the modern age. Some bara dad simulator is the top thing on Steam right now. The majority of people have shit tastes anon.

Pretty much all of my friends who got a PS4 realized they had no idea why they did it later and are just glad it's starting to work out well in 2017.

>>384842582
PS4 is still outselling the Switch, while Wii U is forgotten. That means he's right.

>>384842151

Why would you even need to do that? It's practically a 2.5d game.

Yeah, and that means they're better off than Wii-u owners these days. That means they win and Wii-u loses.

Try after Melee. And before Melee, for that matter.

Actually, fuck it, Nintendo thinks Melee was an accident and regrets it anyway. So let's just say everything from Nintendo. Square propped up the SNES and that's about it outside of Melee.

It's not like I'm not excited to see Odyssey return to form for the series but Mario 3D World is a damn good "race to the finish" platformer. And 2.5d level design with 3d movement is a GOAT combo, I want more games to do it.

I'd have to disagree on that. There's much less hair-pulling when it comes to maneuvering around each other in 3DW than the NSMB games, just having ANY space to walk past each other is a big deal.
