Completed My North American Wii U Set!

The Complete North American Wii U Set! All games released in the US.

[@BigOleWords]

Very nice! That's actually more Wii U games than I realized!

[@stevecraigretrogames]

Thanks! It’s 166 North American releases. A good bit of games but a small library for a console.

[@GamerAhmer]

That’s so exciting!!! Congrats on the set!!!

[@stevecraigretrogames]

Thanks Brandi! My first full set and possibly my last lol.

[@chad3232132]

I've always had a love affair with this console. I know it was a black sheep for most and I get why it flopped, but I still enjoy playing it. Though one good thing about it flopping is that a complete collection is more obtainable than almost any other Nintendo system. Most Wii U games are also still very affordable. I had about 30 physical Wii U games when the console was still in it's lifecycle. I started seriously collecting for the console about a year ago and I'm up to 122 of 166 North American games, with the vast majority sealed and all at least CIB, and also have around 15 non-North American releases (mostly games not released in NA). I'll get the complete set eventually, but unfortunately I'm missing a lot of the highest priced games, like Devil's Third, Gamw & Wario, etc.

[@stevecraigretrogames]

I’ve always loved the system as well. It is to our benefit that the console sold poorly therefore giving us a rather small library to have to collect. Still it’s a shame it didn’t do better. Devils Third and Wario are a bit pricey at this point and I wish you good luck finishing your set! BTW I had a blast with Devils Third as it’s worth a play through. Thanks for watching and leaving a great comment!

[@DoYouNerd]

Dude--this is so awesome!!! Congrats man--very, very impressive! On to the next NA set, but which console?

[@stevecraigretrogames]

Thank you! Yeah I’m glad I’m done lol. Well, I’m only one game away from a complete NA Virtual Boy set haha. Only problem is the one I need is 1K loose! I’ve got two on the way just haven’t received them yet but should be in this Friday’s video!

[@DoYouNerd]

@@stevecraigretrogames Ooof--that last title, I think Chris at Telesplash Games is in the same boat--just one game away from his full NA N64 set, halted by price.

[@stevecraigretrogames]

Yeah it’s a tough barrier haha

[@joshuawick5382]

Wow! Awesome collection Steve! The Wii U is a fun system. I think that collecting for the Wii U is going to sky rocket at some point in the future. In about 5 years, I think that competitive collecting for this system is going to go way up in value and never look back. There are going to be a lot of games for this system that a lot of people don’t know about that are going to be highly sought after for their collectability.

[@stevecraigretrogames]

Thanks Josh! Yeah man I really enjoy the Wii U and think it will definitely be sought after down the road. Some of the games are going to get stupid expensive over the next couple of years. A few of them already have over the last couple months. I’m definitely glad I completed the set before these prices haha. Thanks for watching brother!

[@joshuawick5382]

I have had a Wii U for a long time. I got Zelda: Breath of the Wild the first day it came out at a GameStop. I remember it was the last copy they had! I have the original Misprinted Edition! I think that that game is going to be highly sought after down the road because most people bought the Switch Verison.

[@stevecraigretrogames]

I would have to agree on the BOTW misprint. I have that one as well.

[@RetroWolf_YT]

Congrats brotha this is awesome!!

[@stevecraigretrogames]

Thanks brother! I’m glad it’s done haha

[@katiefelix110]

congrats! i just subscribed, can’t wait so say i was here before you go big!

[@stevecraigretrogames]

Thank you so much! I hope you enjoy the channel and the content!

[@DanofWar101]

Congrats on the full set! Quite an accomplishment! Which system are you going for a full set next? If there's one system I would like to have complete it would be the Vita but that won't happen when looking at the price that just keeps rising up! Great video and keep up the good work!

[@stevecraigretrogames]

Thanks brother! I’m actually only one game away now from. Full NA Virtual Boy set. Just purchased two of the last 3 I need! I would like to keep getting more Vita games but they are getting seriously pricey now. I’ll just get what I like. Thanks for watching Dan!

[@CHILLSCISSORS]

You freaking did it! 👏😮👏 congratulations man this is an amazing accomplishment!

[@stevecraigretrogames]

Thanks brother! I’m super happy to be done with it lol. Glad I started when I did because I got most for cheap.

[@RetroReminiscence]

Niiiice! You finally did it! Now that’s an accomplishment bro! Not easy to do at all. Mad respect ✊

[@stevecraigretrogames]

Thanks brother! I’m glad it’s done haha. Getting pricey now and I got in when they were mostly cheap!

[@RetroRivals]

So awesome! Congrats on completing it! That’s amazing.

[@stevecraigretrogames]

Thank you! It’s been a journey lol. Glad it’s done!

[@niks7643]

I was able to complete my complete Wii U collection a few years ago. Looks like you might be missing a few games. There are regular versions of Just Dance 2016 & 2017 in addition to the Gold Editions. They are different sku’s than the Gold Editions, so considered different games. Might want to pick those up. Anyway, nice job and congrats. It’s unbelievable how much some of the rarest games are going for these days.

[@stevecraigretrogames]

Thanks man! Yeah I’ve got all of the Just Dance games. Unfortunately there are so many of them as I’m not really a fan but needed them to complete the set haha. That’s awesome that you completed yours as well! The prices are definitely crazy aren’t they! I appreciate you watching!

[@niks7643]

@@stevecraigretrogames No problem. Hard to keep up with all the Just Dance games. Think there are 11 in total. Don’t recall seeing Just Dance Kids 2014, Just Dance Kids Disney Party 2, and Just Dance 4 in your collection but you might have showed them and I forgot.

[@stevecraigretrogames]

They should have been in there. Been a while so I can’t remember but yeah I’ve got them all haha.

[@DrinkGameswithJosh]

That is freakin Awesome Steve! Way to go man!

[@stevecraigretrogames]

Thanks Josh I appreciate it brother!

[@Pacmancase]

Congratulations on hitting your goal!

[@stevecraigretrogames]

Thanks brother! Where you been? You guys doing alright man?

[@alexanderzeif2007]

Congrats! I'm only a few games away myself, but Wii U games are so hard to find in Canada without paying an arm and a leg!

[@stevecraigretrogames]

Thank you! Which games are you still needing? That’s what I hear. Hopefully you can complete your set!

[@alexanderzeif2007]

@@stevecraigretrogames I still need Ben 10 Omniverse 2, Steamworld Collection, Tumblestone, and The Voice

[@stevecraigretrogames]

Those are pretty accessible as far as price goes at least. Hope you complete your set soon man!

[@askthecheesegaming3165]

Wow congratulations! Perfect time too because a lot of Wii U games are now spiking in price!

[@stevecraigretrogames]

Thank you! I know right just in time!

[@Nightrider-ck5hx]

Congratulations on the full set!!

[@stevecraigretrogames]

Thank you!

[@JavGeez]

You did it. Now it’s time for an AES full set!!!

[@stevecraigretrogames]

Yes sir! Haha I wish brother I wish! Just the system and a couple games would be nice enough 🤣

[@khanthevideogamehunter2946]

Congratulations brother

[@stevecraigretrogames]

Thanks brother!

[@GamesWithTea]

Amazing! Great to complete it now because a few years from now we both know what will happen with the prices

[@stevecraigretrogames]

Thank you! Exactly man. Can’t even imagine starting to collect for it right now much less 2 years from now. Got most of mine cheap so I’m happy!

[@zmbigmr]

I’m curious, why not get Zelda BotW with the controller correction, the GameStop Rayman Legends version, the DuckTales collectors pin edition, Pikmin 3 Nintendo Select, Lego City Undercover 1st release? That is a great collection but my OCD would kick in if I were missing variants to games… also Wind Waker box with amiibo, Twilight Princess box with amiibo. I’m not trying to not pick, I am honestly curious. Great Collection!!!

[@stevecraigretrogames]

Thank you! I collect for so many other consoles that I just can’t go for all the different variants. Maybe one or two down the road but not a necessity at the moment. I’m happy with my Wii U set the way it is! Thanks again!

[@8BitGlitch79]

Congrats Brother! What's the next collecting goal? I'm not going for a complete set but there are some titles I would like to add. The two Batman's come to mind.

[@stevecraigretrogames]

Thanks brother! Haha I’m only two away from a North American Virtual Boy set! I’m actually eying one of them now. I got most of the Wii U games cheap so figured why the hell not you know. Glad I did it now that I’m done though.

[@AnJohnThanhNguyen]

Congratulations Steve

[@stevecraigretrogames]

Thank you! I appreciate you watching!

[@joeyhadorn1295]

Now that you've accomplished that goal, I don't expect you'll stop there, so what will be your next focus as you expand your horizons to another complete library of games? Has to be something attainable, right? 32X might be a good option with only like 40+ games in the entire library, but be prepared to pay up for it big time because a lot of others are going for the same set. and will continue to drive up the prices. into the stratosphere.

[@stevecraigretrogames]

I’m two away from a NA vmVirtual Boy set and eyeing one of them now. Other than that just stuff I want really. Thanks for watching!

[@WARTRAINWINS]

Ohhh yeah! Congratulations Steve!!! You did it man, mission accomplished! So awesome to see them all laid out! Cool for me to be able to see them all and see wich ones I need and or want to add to my collection 1st! Now to the next library, lol! 😁👍

[@stevecraigretrogames]

Thanks Jeremy! Glad that’s behind me now haha. Got most for cheap so can’t complain. It is cool seeing them all together! I’m sure you saw some you need! Yes sir on to the next!

[@nickbarrus1675]

I’m beginning to start collecting for Wii u

[@stevecraigretrogames]

That’s awesome! It’s still a good time to start as the pricey games are still only around $300 so I would start there if possible and knock those out first. Good luck and thanks for watching!

[@RetroFuzionGaming]

Congratulations man. I know the struggle of this set myself. No way I'm trying for all the variants though

[@stevecraigretrogames]

Thanks brother! Me either lol. I’m mostly done with the Wii U now. Maybe a couple PAL games but that’s it.

[@rickalbuquerque1205]

Thank you

[@stevecraigretrogames]

Thank you!

[@madness3795]

That’s so dope man

[@stevecraigretrogames]

Thanks brother!

[@zangiefgames]

Awesome collection! I'm working towards a full set myself! I just recently highlighted the 5 rarest Wii U games in my collection! What would you say is the rarest game in yours? And the hardest to come by?

[@stevecraigretrogames]

Thank you! Good luck completing your set! Well having all of them I think the rarest honestly is Unwritten Tales 2. I think that will be the most expensive game for the system down the road. Also the hardest to come by.

[@zangiefgames]

@@stevecraigretrogames Interesting! I'll have to keep an eye out for it in the wild! Never know when it might become decent trade bait lol

[@training4260]

Congratulations my friend. Truly an accomplishment. Once I finished my set, I went out and found all the games to life boxes and all the Nintendo selects. Finding some of those was harder than I thought it would be. Anyway congrats again. That set will gain in value in the coming years.

[@stevecraigretrogames]

Thanks brother! I’m pretty happy I’m done with it lol. I might add a few PAL region games but that should be it with the Wii U. Thanks again man! I know I can’t wait to see where the prices go down the road.

[@BandanaGamer]

Congratulations!!!!!

[@stevecraigretrogames]

Thanks brother!

[@mkps1988]

Graduations also just found out Jeopardy have 2 different print runs thq and Nordic games

[@stevecraigretrogames]

Thank you! Yeah there are a couple games like that.

[@broseb8050]

Well damn son!!! Congrats brother! Epic in so many ways. Curious to know what the future holds for the lowest printed console and games are. Take care brother

[@stevecraigretrogames]

Thanks brother! I’m super happy I started collecting for it three years ago because I got most of these for damn cheap. It’ll be interesting to see where the prices go from here. Thanks my friend!
