I Bought A Wii U In 2021...Here's Why

The Wii U has pretty much been forgotten about after the massive success of the Switch along with many of the big Wii U titles being ported over, however due to several things around the system it looks like it's shaping up to be a solid collectors item over the next couple of years.

I have both too and honestly.... I might prefer the Wii U

[@Realmfaker]

@@GrabASpriteB Using the words "for free" when illegally stealing games is like saying you can get everything you want for free at the grocery store by just grabbing it and not paying.

[@confusername]

@@Realmfaker Difference between that is that you aren't removing the original product from the sellers, there's a moral and legal stigma sure, but you aren't actually removing someones property from their possession through stealing like you would with stealing from a grocery store. You're downloading copies of the games off an illegal site and preventing the devs from gaining money by sales of the product, sure. But honestly, are you likely to get arrested and / or legal trouble for it? 99/100 times, no unless you're really going out of your way to not be careful. That being said, I'm playing devil's advocate here, not endorsing piracy. Only way I endorse it is for preserving games which have no official legal channel to purchase them through. Then I think it's justified to not have the games eventually fade into nothingness.

it really flopped it had very low sales but in my opinion that console was amazing its really great just very underrated

[@legohalonascarfan3]

Just bought a bundle including BoTW and an Assassins Creed game today for $100. IMO a great value, especially just because I want to mod it so I can play gamecube and n64 with a handheld. Worst case scenario I can just sell the gamepad for more than I bought the whole bundle for. I look forward to making that thing an entertainment center for years to come.

[@deathwarp131]

when the wii u came out i decided to wait until the price dropped then it just disappeared. when i bought my wii u a few years ago the lady at my local game store didn't want to sell it to me because it was a dead system. after i told her that i already had a switch nes snes and was trying to get all systems then she sold it to me. props to her not just trying to get rid of a system. also i had to get on a waiting list to get one because they didn't get them in often.

No doubt and I never owned the wii u and do own a switch. Wii U had better build quality, innovative controller, virtual console, similar power better exclusives Switch obviously has some advantages over the Wii zu as well like portability and insane amount of indie games.

I got married in 2011 and didn't have much time for gaming in general I finally got a Wii U right before the Switch came out because I didn't want to get them out of order and I thought I'd wait on the Switch (I ended up getting it at launch anyway).
