Love the Wii U
PostedJune 16, 2014
I'm a sucker for limited edition consoles so this version was the reason for me to buy a Wii U. only the controller is zelda themed but it looks amazing and is a beautiful design. the console itself is fantastic and far exceeded my expectations. Initially I wasn't too keen on the screen controller, but love it and almost play it like its a portable console. I highly recommend the Wii U especially with all the great titles coming out/came out such as mariokart 8, smash bros. etc. Maybe im not picky, or am very nostalgic about Nintendo but I don't understand how this system is "in trouble". I prefer it over the xbox one and ps4 because I have a gaming desktop.

A Waste of Money
PostedMay 15, 2014
I was super excited when I got this console because I was going to get to play The Legend of Zelda Windwaker. That game was awesome along with all other games that I have played with it such at Assassins Creed 4, Batman Arkham Origins, and the Pikman 3. Also the Gamepad is pretty cool also. If you are looking for a multimedia device this is not it, 1st of all it does not allow you to play anything else besides games. I knew that blue-ray was not an option on this thing but it will not even play DVDs. 2nd it does no allow you to put anything on the console such at music or videos. 3rd the Gamepad is very picky as to where you can sit and how far away you can be from the console for it to work, I have had numerous times were I will be into a game and then the system tells me that I need to check to Gamepad. This system would be great for like a kid or someone who is not into that much into gaming. Once again Nintendo you have failed at getting at gamers and have once again made a system for kids. Please if I was you I would spend the extra $100 to get the PlayStation 4 which I will be getting as soon as I trade this junk in.

Very good console
PostedMarch 19, 2014
I own six home consoles and have played just about every other console out there, and I have to say the Wii U is one of the best. The controller has a nice button layout and fits comfortably in the hands. The only bad thing is the battery life, it only lasts about 4 hrs so your going to have to charge it a lot or buy a battery extender. The console looks great and runs quiet, it also has four USB ports That can be used with external hard drives and flash drives to expand the memory. there is also one SD port. The games are on blue ray like discs which is nice because they wont scratch as easy. The Wii U is a must have because of MarioKart 8 and Super Smash Bros being released This year! I also cant wait for E3 2014 and the New Zelda game going to be revealed! Wind Waker HD is great by the way, it improves a lot on the original.
