Nintendo Wii-U

I played Mega Man 9 in bed last night awkwardly on a little screen with a Wiimote. LIVING THE DREAM!!!!

I wonder what's so difficult about just mapping the Wii Pro Controller buttons to the gamepad...

Super Mario 3D World looks great. Hate that Donkey Kong is delayed until February.

It's not like Nintendo has had well over a year to work on Donkey Kong...oh wait...

Keeping games like Kirby on the 3DS is the way to go i think. He'll never come to close to being a console seller. And the install base of the portable systems is perfect for him

The Zelda bundle looks interesting. The Zelda games hold there retail resell value and there are a lot of Zelda fans were this bundle might prove to increase in value once sold out. I just wish they had increased the size of the HD with this system bundle. Only thing holding me back is that the system just hasn't put out the amount of games worthy of investing in it yet. I want a WiiU but not sure it's time yet with so much going on with other systems.

I believe the Zelda game in the bundle is download only not a physical copy.

Yep, that is correct.

New bundle for the holidays. $299 for the Deluxe Set with two games.

Thanks to fellow freak, Vader AL, I did a bit of researching and found that Super Mario 3D World has been getting such high feedback scores.

At this time, it scores an average of 94/100, from 46 reviews.

I'm still on the fence on whether I should get the PS4 or Xbox One first, but this one is as good as bought.

That game and the bundle is making want one of these systems.

Nintendo picked a helluva time to release this game too.

It's clear they weren't going to sit aside during Sony's and Microsoft's console launches. It's brilliant!

This game is receiving higher scores than anything on PS4 and Xbox1.

I need to read some reviews.

Getting Mario 3D World and Zelda A Link Between Worlds tomorrow.

Nintendo is also releasing the new Zelda 3DS game and limited edition Zelda 3DS system....they pulled out the big guns for tomorrow too.

I keep getting the impression that Nintendo is kind of killing the Wii U with the 3DS

Yeah!
They waited to release Super Mario 3D World and Zelda: A Link Between Worlds to coincide with the release of Xbox One.

I think they did this so that they would have a killer app for both of their hardwares during this time of the season.

I don't believe for a second that they're ignoring either one of their units (Wii U/3DS).

Well, 3DS is getting better games, and many of the good games that are going to be on Wii U are also coming to 3DS. If you like Nintendo, you can get a 3DS and be happy without a Wii U

Perhaps, but I still wouldn't put anything pass Nintendo.
I really don't believe they'll let their Wii U fall behind. It is, after all, their offering among the next gen consoles. Or maybe, that's wishful thinking on my part.
