The sorry state of the Wii U

[C.Mongler]

i aint even mad lol   

[Daddy]

glad i didn't spend money on a shit console

hopefully the nx isn't shit so i can get good games like zelda

[strongbad]

wow no production by end of 2016
would this make it worth it to buy a wii u now? like could it make it more valuable? or is that dumb logic

very few wii u games appealed to me sadly but i still would like to play some super mario maker

[Hiro]

well it was a good smash bros/splatoon/earthbound machine, a bit sad that there's nothing more than that but at least i got it fairly cheap
but I won't be able to afford the nx for a while and i want that zelda dammit
then again I also need a PS4 if/when the last guardian ever comes out

maybe but probably not. it will probably be a semi niche console like 10 years from now, but probably no more than the dreamcast is.


honestly super mario maker is worth it alone if u like kaizo mario otherwise eh

good, so i guess they'll mark them down to an affordable price what they're actually worth

but the games won't

you're right *sad soap wizard*

[Samus Aran]

what is a playstation tv

how have i not paid attention to thes gaymen things

it's a vita that is only compatible with about 75% of its games

granted, it's compatible with 90% of the ones that are actually good

upddate

ninnytendo says about ceasing production...

"*shrugs*"

[Kalahari Inkantation]

nikkei in 2009: nintendo is to launch a new, larger dsi

nintendo: squarely denies, then announces dsi xl mere days later

nikkei in 2011: nintendo is to launch a 3d-capable successor to the original ds

nintendo: squarely denies, then announces 3ds mere days later

nikkei later in 2011: nintendo is to launch a wii successor with a touch-sensitive controller in late 2012

lo and behold, nintendo does just that

nikkei in 2012: nintendo is to launch a new, larger 3ds

nintendo: squarely denies, then announces 3ds xl mere days later

nikkei in 2016: nintendo is to cease manufacturing of the wii u

nintendo: squarely denies, and then.......................................

this particular report about the fate of the wii u may or may not actually be true, but nintendo's own words are even more worthless than those of the rumour mill at this point

and it's not like they would ever come right out and confirm that they're ceasing production of the wii u eight months before it even has a successor on the market; even if it were true, that sort of information made public could only possibly affect them negatively

[C.Mongler]

Um that is just a rumor and ALL rumors are fake, okay?

[ME##]

What I'd really like to know is how pitiful the Wii U's production numbers are currently

[C.Mongler]

they probably sold around 6 or 7 so they probably made like 9 or 10

[squirrelfriend]

i would buy a wii u just to play tokyo mirage sessions ironically

[Thyme]

$199 would be the sweet spot for me tbh
