Hardware designed purely for first-party games. It's a sickening business model even below the kind of shit companies like EA pull.

It's really an excellent console. It's just got no games.

Nintendoland and Wii Party U give us tons of fun over here, but while everyone else is waiting for Smash Bros or Mario Kart, I'm dying for X.

Dude! I can call you dude can't I? You need to wake up and smell the dates because it's 2014, and the Wii U is like...I dunno, because I never listened to my Grandpa's stories and he died of lung cancer three years ago. But really, I'm not going to be buying any console now unless it has at least 10,000 RAM, an nVidia with quad cores, and stuff and shit.

Imagine owning an iPad Air 64GB (no you can't have one of mine yes I have more than one lololol), then buying a console and the controller is like a fucking shit original iPad but somehow worse, like a Kindle or some fucking shit with no games and a resolution like omg i need glasses I can't see.

That's the Wii U. It's like having child with downs syndrome, because you adopted him that way.

Yeah, the Wii U controller screen is crappy compared to an iPad, but it's still better at playing games than an iPad is because it has fucking buttons.

And yes, the tablet is a gimmick just like the Wiimote was. Regardless, there are still some games that are way better played on the tablet just like there were great games that were best played on the Wiimote. Is it worth dropping $300 on? That's up to you, but it was worth it to me. We all know it will never have the success or be the big platform that Nintendo consoles once were.

When I have friends over, we play shit like Nintendoland. It's simple and it's fun (especially when high or drunk), we get competitive but not assholes about KDRs and shit, and the tablet screen really makes some of the games a blast. I couldn't care less about playing split-screen Call of Duty or whatever. Is that even a thing? Do console FPS games even still have split screen multiplayer these days? Honestly, I don't even care.
