#157301 Just sold my Wii U!

Posted by syks-1 on 07 January 2013 - 01:33 PM

I have to disagree. The PS Vita had a far better launch line up then the Wii U. That's not to say the Wii U doesn't have some strong games but there is very few of them and some are just direct ports.


You must be joking..i had a vita at launch and it was crap,i sold it after 2 weeks as the games that were out were all rubbish and now there still just as bad lol the wii u has a cod at launch ffs not my favorite cod by a longshot but most people think its the best ever,then it has a mario,assassins creed 3 which is the best in the series,has sonic racing for the racing side which is surprisingly good.

The vitas launch was terrible mate and the games on it now are still just as bad,little big planet is the only worthy game on the vita.

Thats my take on it :)

lol the wii u has prob got the BEST launch line up of any console before it! and to spend £299 on a console,sell it then pay another £224.99 on the same console a month later is CRAZY to me lol but each to his own :)

$100 says Paz will sell his new Wii U in 3 months.

Yeah, can't really see any trolling at all. CookieEpic - it is a forum, opinions being expressed is normal - DO NOT hit the panic button!

Bought it again because it was almost 1/3rd cheaper. at £224.99 i the UK - original price was £299.99. Logical to get it again at that discount. I'm enjoying getting back into ZU and I'll pick up Mario Bros U within the week. My concern's are still their though - what's coming and when. Triple A's have not been the Wii's strong point and as much as Big N want to say the Wii U is aimed at the HC gamer, the proof is in the info and delivery. I, just like everybody else here - want to have great gaming experiences on it.

Not to compare the Wii U to handheld, but one of the reason I decided to sell the original was because my Vita has been gathering dust - few really good games and a dearth between quality releases - a very big disappointment. Didn't want a repeat of that, or the Wii experience for that matter.

Been great reading all the posts from Wii U Zealots - to gamer's having pretty similar opinions to myself. Let's hope the Wii U get's to be where it deserves. The only way it's going to do that is with Triple A titles.

The Wii U is hardcore and has AAA titles LOL. Trollfail.

Have any of you played DK's Crash Course yet?  I find it one of the most challenging minigames available.  I would rate it 9/10 for singleplayer.

The overworld is interesting, but so far I haven't unlocked much so I'm not sure how much there is to actually do here, and the TV headed stick figure that explains things gets quite annoying to start with, and can't be skipped.

IMO, Nintendo land is targeted for multiplayer purposes.  Single player is 'okay', Multiplayer is exceptional.

7.5/10 overall

Rated 8. Nintendo Land is a lot of fun but it's limited for both Solo and Multi.

I have only played half of the 12 mini-games, and I will rate each one I played and give this game an overall score based on what I played.

The Legend of Zelda Battle Quest: 8.7/10 - This game features use of an archer for the Gamepad and use of Links with swords for the Wii Remotes. This is a fun game with nice touches such as rips in the Links' clothing from being damaged.

Pikmin Adventure: 8.7/10 - This is a great game for anyone that loves Pikmin. The combat is fast and straightforward.

Metroid Blast 8.3/10 - Nothing bad to say about this game, just that it's not a killer app. The Samus Miis still look cool though. And I will probably also get disagreement with my "not a killer app" opinion.

Mario Chase 8.3/10 - This is a pretty fun game in which you chase Mario using Toad. It would have been better with things like jumping.

Luigi's Ghost Mansion 8.3/10 - Pretty much what you would expect from a Luigi's Mansion game. Faithful to the original. But still a little lacking.

Yoshi's Fruit Cart 7.6/10 - This looked really fun when I saw a video of it. Is it as fun as what I thought it would be? Not really.

My overall Nintendo Land score: 8.5/10



Id like you to elaborate on how your grading scale works.

You missed Zombie U?  How, what why?  That's been one of the most hyped games for the system.  One game was enough for you to buy the system again now?  Why sell it in the first place if one game is enough to make it worth buying?

you should have probably waited for more than the single month of release... it seems you are too impatient  .


#148994 Just sold my Wii U!

Posted by Abcdude on 17 December 2012 - 04:49 PM

So you sold a system 3 weeks after launch because it has no games for the next 1-2 months

You probably also lost some cash when you sold it

Your impatience makes me sad.

Posted by Crimson_Engage on 17 December 2012 - 02:55 PM

So you sold it because you are impatient? The system JUST came out. Oh well, whatever. Your loss. (of money)

I'll be playing Aliens: Colonial Marines next month.

The vita did not have any games at launch either and to a point still does not. I think the wii u will thrive and be huge. At the moment I love my wii u and this is coming from a hardcore pc/console gamer who never owned or would buy a nintendo product. Until the wii u


#146931 Just sold my Wii U!

Posted by RGKID144 on 12 December 2012 - 04:56 AM

LOL, anyone who has Wii U must be completely satisfied, and if they arent, they probably had some trepidation about buying one in the first place. The ONLY complaint I have, if you can even call it a complaint, is the launch titles, NSMBU is a 9/10 in my book, and has just blown me away......BLOPS 2 is very very solid, and gonna be the game that consumes me while i eagerly await new titles......but im not big on AC3, zombie u etc.....so i cant even call it a complaint, because I, just like everyone else knew exactly the games that would be available.....its simply a justification for having ANY one thing be not stellar with the WII U. Everything else has been above and beyond what my expectations were for the system.

Dont really know why someone would sell this so soon.

Eagerly awaiting Rayman, Zelda, Kart, Party, and all the titles and platformers that put Nintendo into a league of their own. And the sole reason it can still be a monster entity among microsoft and sony.
