Wii U - Will U Be Getting One?

[jumblesale]

I couldn't resist the lame pun, I'm afraid

I'm seriously tempted. I hear pre-orders are selling out fast in the US, but I don't know whether that's just a marketing tactic to encourage panic-buying.

It's also a bit pricier than I expected it to be, around £250 for the basic pack here in the UK.

I learned never to be a first adapter of any new console. Nintendo lost me on the Wii and unless something amazing comes out for it, I don't see me buying one. Reckon I dunno much about the 720 or ps4. Still PC gamer master race.

I am going to wait when the Wii U comes out with a second generation, cause usually the first generation of consoles have issues (PS3's yellow light of death, 360's red ring of death, PS2's disc read error)

You love zero punctuation also? Mhm the things I would do Yahtzee. His Sims3 Video sums up quite nicely my opinion of women.

Oh I'm not really a fan (the zero punctuation part wears off pretty quick), but he has his moments

i'm gettin one,good point but nintendo consoles have had a pretty good track record for not having red ring of death etc

Yeah but they did have issues when you left it on standby, and if the wireless on the system was constantly on and so it heated the system up and been told that it fries the video card. It's stupid too cause I've left my system on standby and when I feel the system it's really hot so I just turn it off when not using it.

I am kind of sad that Nintendo hardly gave much love to the Wii cause the last system update was what a year ago? They gave more love to their Nintendo 3DS then they did with the Wii probably why nobody cared for the games that came out on the system.
