They couldn't even deliver Gears of War 4 to me and spent an entire week lying to me saying that "the developers are having trouble with a Friday release" despite no other stores having any issues.

Who will buy Zelda BOTW WiiU ?
- Thread starter dovella
- Start date
May take a century until CEMU is ready for that.
Yeah...the people talking of buying a WiiU for it don't seem to take int account....you can't buy it new anymore. It has been removed from store shelves and online stores. You can only really find it used online places like ebay now.
Well, for me personally, I can't justify spending $300+ on a system that I Know will only have one game I want to play on it until 2018. (With Nintendo's recent track record Mario ain't coming in 2017, I just don't believe that). And don't want to wait until then to play Zelda.
Uh....what in the world are you talking about with Mario? Nintendo has never delayed a Mario game. And every report we have had is that Mario is effectively finished.
This post is pure absurdity with no basis in reality.

"Dips in FPS!" Meh. "You'll have to sweat and toil and set up a Wii U in Winter to play DLC!" ... Actually it'll still be there, right beside the TV.
Did people's minds break when this happened with Twilight Princess or something?

I have this strange feeling that while TP and SS did nothing for me, this has looked banging since day one previews.

Maybe in USA but I guess everybody isn't from USA!
For exemple in my country you can still find the Wii U in every shop, and at a good quantity.

I lived through the n64 era. A few frame drops won't affect me. Getting the wii u version and waiting on Switch until smash bros

Already pre-ordered the Wii U version off Amazon. Can't afford a Switch currently but there's no way I was going to wait.
Nintendo has been synonymous with delays for a little while now. Whether more recently with the Switch itself, the new Zelda being delayed for years, or Star Fox. As a consumer, this is what I'm now used to with them. Just because Mario hasn't been delayed in the past, doesn't mean it can't be or won't be. I'm not against a delay to make a product far better, I have more than enough to play on back-up, it's just something I expect with Nintendo.
And I doubt Mario is finished. There would be no reason not to release it to boost Switch sales (Unless it's artificially being held back for the holidays since Mario is ALL they have to release in that time frame which is equally disheartening) Either way, Nintendo would likely have +1 on Switch sales from me if Mario was being released sooner (me and a lot of people I know would have bought the system with at least more than one reason to)

If you're complaining about slight FPS drops, then I think you're being extremely picky.
There's been no indication of any discount for buying both

I think I'll keep my switch & game preorders until digital foundry comes out with clear framerate results, then if the switch version is even 10% better, I'll keep the switch, if not I'll return or sell the switch at cost.

almost 99% sure im getting it for Wii U.
Has there been any recent discussion on the differences other than the 720P and audio differences? Has the framerate been a topic of concern for the Wii U version? Ive heard that the Switch version has framerate issues as well, so it doesnt sound like itll be that huge of a difference between the 2.

Man, the fact that you bought the Master Edition on Switch doesn't give you the right of pirating the Wii U version, you should feel ashamed...

Umm...
Well for ROM's, if you own the game you can technically can get the ROM...
This just seems ill advised though...

I decided to hold out on the WiiU version purchase.
(Especially since BB refuses to use coupons on pre-order games).
Anyways, gonna see how it performs on the WiiU - if it does well and not REALLY bad in FPS, I'll get it on the WiiU , if it does perform bad and/or no more WiiU copies left, I'll wait and buy the game whenever I get the Switch which may be next year or so.

I believe they said there are some framerate issues that pop up when it matters least.

lmao, I respect the honesty at the very least
I myself am a lapsed Nintendo player, so this will be my first time owning a Nintendo console since Gamecube. First Zelda in 15 years. To say I'm excited would be an understatement. Most day one Switch owners are also Wii U owners, so there's some disappointment in having ports of Mario Kart, Splatoon etc., but for someone such as myself, I'm finally getting to play some great games I've been missing out on. Buying Zelda on Switch is a nobrainer for me.

Currently in talks with friends whether we are going to buy a Switch as a group.
I would buy Zelda for me when that happens, the other guys would just get it for Mario Kart.

Seems like a bad idea... :|
I'm going to wait until the Switch has more games. With all the accessories and such, it's pretty pricey and I'm not willing to shell out that much money for it...yet.
That being said, I'm getting the Breath of the Wild Special Edition for the Switch and the Wii U version day 1. I'm really glad there's a Wii U version.

And yes Edge did get to play the Wii U version as they were playing using Nintendo UKs hardware (hence why they have a review despite going to print before receiving the Switch). I'm not sure if they had to go to Windsor (or some other location) to play the game or if they could stay in their office Bath or London (given how old Edge is they're probably based in Bath).http://www.neogaf.com/forum/showthread.php?t=1347513&page=8#380 said:
I think it is pre-load in Europe only which is odd because Europe usually misses out on pre-load completely.

I think I asked this question before, but no one has answered me, I will ask again: Will the Wii U version has pre-load? If anyone knows about this matter, please respond.
No pre-load was announced.

I'll have it on Wii U with a glass of ice cubes.

in before the mods.....
that's a weak defense, like saying i bought an expensive car which cost me a lot of money but i don't have the keys yet, so technically i'm allowed to steal a cheaper car for free.

Ordered switch version for me and Wii U version for a friend. Letting him borrow my wind waker Wii U until he's satisfied.
