I can't believe how small that unit is.

Wow, up to 3TB of memory...

You can basically use a 3TB External Hard drive and plug it in.... That's gonna be a lot.

I have to admit. I've come around on this thing. I will definitely keep one of the systems I have reserved. Reserved Mario, Zombie U, Lego City, and Avengers. The Avengers game put it over the edge for me since its a Kinect only game for 360 but controller for WiiU. Considering 360/PS3 could both be over $500 at launch, WiiU may be my only entry into next gen now. Will probably get Call of Duty and Assassins Creed III on it as well.

Yep. Thinking the same thing. If the next consoles are really salty I will pass more than likely until a price drop. Don't think I'll ever do a 600.00 (PS3) console again.

Re: Wii U Discussion

Although pre-orders sold out, for PRU members at Gamestop you can get on a wait list for WiiU. In store only. No money down, but you have to buy it within 2 days notice or lose your spot.

I got on the wait list for the premium.

Re: Wii U Discussion

I just now started looking into Wii U and there's definitely some cool stuff there. I think Nintendo made a smart decision by putting out hardware that improves on today's HD consoles, but is not overly pricey. Good for customer wallets and good for developers who already have experience with 360/PS3 development. It also looks like Nintendo is working to bring back the hardcore audience, which is great.

I don't plan on picking one up this fall. I have vowed that the 360 was going to be my last console purchased at launch, because there is so much more value in waiting. Zombi U has me tempted, though. I'll really miss not playing that at launch.

Nintendo confirmed the WiiU will be region locked.

Knew this was going to happen since they did it with the 3DS and normally they never used to on handhelds, and they ALWAYS did this with the consoles.

Bummer for those who love to import in all regions.

Re: Wii U Discussion

I found a pre-order for a deluxe at FYE. Since my son is crazy about Mario there is no way I will miss this.

Do you think the Wii U will avoid the gathering dust problem that many people had with their Wii?

if the PS4 or new XBOX comes out at 400 or higher it will certainly keep the dust off mine.

I don't see the next Xbox or PlayStation being less than $399 considering what rumors say on what they want to put into the hardware.

Then the WiiU will suffice till first price drop.---Is what I'm saying now lol--Guess it will all depend on actual game footage. If I see things that make me "OMG!" then I may jump at the start. If not I will wait for the time ever after a new release of systems.

It would really have to be jawdropping for me to get the next console at launch. Not just graphics, but actual features of games and integration. I foresee having a lot of fun with the WiiU, my Vita and my PS3/Xbox 360 for a long time.
