Ive been thinking for the past several days over the drought of Wii U news and am now thinking about canceling my pre-order.
Im 80 percent NO and 20 percent YES!

( Reasons I should)
- Im missing out on Borderlands 2, LBP VITA, Resident Evil 6, Dishonored, AC:liberation and more because of the wii u
-I am basically working my job for the next 4 or 5 weeks to pay the thing off.
- No spending money in general.
- Not as much Christmas Money

(Reasons I shouldn't)
-Tons of great Nintendo games and an awesome new console.
-Already paid off Zombi U And Assassins Creed 3
-Missing out on games now but getting awesome games later.
- I can always buy the others later

Can anyone help me out here??

Whatever you feel more confident with. I personaly wouldn't cancel it... You know you'll buy one anyway so why cancel it?

My opinion, you might not like it. But I would actually trade in my ps vita and games and accessories towards store credit or cash to put down on the Wii U, but then again I'm just not a fan of handhelds.

Therefore it makes less of a dent in yout pocket.

I won't be getting Pokemon White 2 or Paper Mario Sticker star until christmas (parents getting it). I get 20$ a week in allowance, and the reason I started doing chores is for wii u. I know. It hurts. It will pay off in the long run though.

Great idea, I already traded in my Xbox 360 towards the Wii U and my Nintendo 3dxl, I purchased it and all it did was confirm my dislike for handhelds.

But with that being said, cash back is even less than store credit at Gamestop. You are defintaly in a hard place.

If I were you I would just stick it out and get it. Once you get the WiiU and play it you will not think twice about it being a bad decision. You will be satisfied I bet. Take a chance and get the new console.

Yep, last time I was this hype for a console was Nintendo 64.

[Mushlikeahusky]

Hearing all the Borderlands 2 praise is what really makes the wait unbearable. That and the lack of news.

[unleashedknight]

i reccomend selling an xbox or ps3 for the Wii U if you have them.

Gave my dad my ps3 and never selling my 360

[Wonder Blue]

i see no reason to cancel it, considering preorders seem to be sold out everywhere, so you would have to wait a while to catch a wii u after the release...ZombiU its the perfect excuse to get a wiiU at launch

[Mushlikeahusky]

I agree

[skiesfallsdown]

well i just sold my ps3 AND pokemon heartgold to get it

[WisdomPowerCourage]

My inner Nintendo Fanboy is screaming DON'T DO IT! But I also must say that it is just a videogame console, and you need to do what is better for you. If its stressing you out and making your life harder and more stressful then you should probably cancel it. Remember basic needs come before video games.

What to do what to do

Comes down to what you want first:
The promise of great games in the next 6 years, or a list of current games you already own the hardware for.

I can't really trust Nintendo anymore. After the 64 they went down hill with heavy hitters. The wii let me down so hard.
I really really really want a wii u because the games look amazing so far, but outside of the launch window what is there?
People say Star Fox, Zelda, 3d Mario. But none of this is guarnteed my wii is collecting dust while my 64 gets played from once to twice a week.

Be careful. You never know

[Mignaga]

It really isn't going to hurt you much to get it for Christmas or afterwards. There really isn't much coming out between the launch, and then that would be worth getting. (As far as I remember.) You may as well just wait it out, which is what I'm doing.
