a nostalgic Nintendo Wii U music mix

[@XenoJace]

Say what you want about the Wii U. But this is one of the most unique gaming consoles ever.

[@rene_mxo]

How so?

[@ms.artipanGames]

Yea, I believe that it's extremely underrated. I wish it could've done better honestly.

[@OreoKiller_]

Yeah, It could play mass effect, minecraft, deus ex, injustice, Mario maker, and Nintendo land all on one console

[@PaBien]

@@rene_mxoEasy: most consoles are all the same, with just more power, from the NES to the PS5. There are very few unique consoles, so WiiU make it easily to the list. (Unlike the Wii, which is not a GAMING console. :p)

Maybe it’s just nostalgia talking here but I kinda miss the Wii U era a little bit. Oh also JUSTICE FOR NINTENDO LAND! That game was so fun and literally nobody talks about it anymore. Thank you so much for putting its main theme on here!

[@EpicGamerZone-gman]

Dude nintendo land is the best game ever. Whats your favorite mini game in nintendo land

[@RW24897]

Oh man Wii U was so overlooked I still have mine since 2013 Christmas. I just turned 20 a few days ago. The Wii and DS make me feel old ,the Xbox 360 and PS2 my consoles I grew up around as well.😢

[@sourlemoneee]

i miss the wii u, despite its low sales it has to be one of my favorite consoles (probably solely due to nostalgia tho lol)

[@lucaspec7284]

it can play most generations of nintendo games, including 3 natively. i'd say it's objectively really good. edit: also, it can technically be tinkered into a portable console by adding a USB-C power supply. sometime use mine to play PSO on the go.

[@kookyflowers4633]

idc what anyone else says...this console always had so much heart to it. i may have gotten one long after its prime, but i can gladly say its one of my favorites. the music is so memorable

[@anoncuber1510]

just recently hit 16, and god do I feel old realising that the Wii U released in 2012, when I was 5, why did you inflict me with these emotions?

[@leahluostarinen]

R.I.P Miiverse we still miss using it and browsing it when it was still around

[@xer0335]

Those Xenoblade X tracks 🔥🔥...the hype was so real for that game!

[@squish_39]

blessed be the new vapid upload... that one animal crossing night time mix you made is literally my favourite ever, i have listened to the full thing over 100 times and fell asleep to it a ton over the years (that number isnt an exaggeration btw) :3

[@squish_39]

also i hope the tracklist gets added soon, some of these songs i remember so well but cant remember for the life of me what the names are

[@robinbackrud89]

The Wii U menus are brimming with personality with all their different musical themes. The Miiverse was such a nice little community platform.

Guess I'll just have to play more Wii U :P ) 57:20 Not really a different song, but this is the faded version of the main menu song when you don't touch the console for a bit! 58:01 Pikmin 3's Title Screen Theme! 59:49 I do not know this one.

Do you mind me asking what the track is called, I'd love to know?! I don't blame you for timestamping it. It is just absolutely wonderful, isn't it? So reminiscent of a simpler time. It makes me so emotional, feeling all these sublime, visceral and comforting senses of nostalgia and warmth akin to what I felt back in the Wii U era. Man, I miss the Wii U era so much - it was my life as a kid... I wish I could go back, I really do.
