Yeah sorry about asking for a list. Thanks though, it's good to hear about the not so popular games coming out. I didn't even realize Disgaea 5 was a thing.
Keep my PS4 or get a Wii U?

Isn't there a ton of games that are basically console exclusive? I mean even Destiny and GTAV for the longest time were only available to console. OP didn't imply that he had an Xbox One.

OP, PS4 games:
Order
Ratchet and Clank
Bloodborne
Persona 5 (also on PS3)
Rime
WILD (I don't think its 2015 though)
Uncharted 4
FF Type 0 HD
DMC4 SE
Ys (also on PSV)
Yakuza 0 (also on PS3)
Dragon Quest Heroes (also on PS3)
Last two depend on localisation.

If we ignore the fact that 2/5 of those are actually 1st party games... You are absolutely right. PS4 has plenty of games to look forward to in 2015 and will be a good companion for any other platform.
You literally said this "So is PS4 if you don't like Sony IP's"
Then when I pointed out that they have the largest third party support, you changed your argument to having to exclude games that are available on PC. I pointed this out, and then you felt like insulting me.
Not sure how that is putting words in your mouth.
You are ignoring the context completely. Although I don't think anyone really cares to read about this so feel free to follow with a PM if you still are confused.
Selling a PS4 now would be silly. But not getting a Wii U, especially if you're particularly into the games it features, would be silly as well.
Keep you PS4. Wait for a good sale on a WiiU.

Either way, this is getting off topic. I still don't see why the OP couldn't just wait and save money to buy a Wii U. They are on sale almost every other week, and they could surely find a smoking deal on one.

If you like JP games, you should keep it, but start saving for a Wii U too.
Otherwise, sell it ASAP, or ship it to my address.

I didn't say Nintendo loves me, just I'm happy with the relationship we both acquiesce to. horse for courses... just stating an opinion on the matter.
There are six in that list, and I wasn't answering your question.
By all means, carry on moving goalposts and creating list wars. I won't be a part of it more than I already was because it seemed like someone was actually genuinely interested in what else was out there.

Didn't see this. Selling your PS4 when it has such a great 2015 lineup would be crazy. There's probably more coming as well.

Seems you will end up buying another PS4 in the future so just keep it. Selling consoles to buy another one is silly any way. Learn some patience.
3/6 of the games are first party.....
To me it sounds like you can use the Wii U right now, while you can still buy a PS4 again next year?
Most of the Wii U games you mentioned are out right now or will be out very soon.
Your PC can help you with third party games and once the PS4 exclusive library is a bit bigger you can still get that PS4.
Of course you can just keep your PS4 right now if that's what you really want and get a Wii U later on. That works too ^^

You know guys a lot of this could have just been avoided by linking to the PS4 2015 exclusives thread...

Like...that's really all that needs to be said. The PS4 is gonna be an exceptional value this year, and that's just Playstation exclusives there, that's not full multiplats which is even more games.
This year i'd wager to say, will be the best year for PlayStation EVER.

The guy was listing games he was personally looking forward to in response to someone who asked what games were coming out. I don't understand the point of the first half of your post (it's actually 3/6).
Wii U is the way to go if you like LOCAL MULTIPLAYER
The best things on Wii U so far are as follows (in no particular order)
1. Nintendo Land: Ghost Game and Animal Crossing - these are really good for friends over + beer. I think they are an underrated experience that is more fun than Wii Sports.
2. Smash U - obvious reasons.
3. Pikmin 3 COOP - the singleplayer game is kinda mehhhh but when you play with a friend, it becomes way more fun. The co-op mode is so much fun, and so addicting.
4. Mario Kart 8 - obvious reasons are obvious.
5. Super Mario 3D World - the single player experience is not as tight or fun as Super Mario 3D Land or Galaxy 1/2, BUT as a co-op / competitive game, this shit is great fun.
6. Rayman: Legends is fun single player, but a lot of fun in co-op too.
As far as single player experiences go, your options are more slim. Captain Toad, Bayonetta 2, Windwaker HD, and like... Lego City Undercover is about all I can recommend.
For me personally though, Wii U is the best console to get for multiplayer, and the PC + Wii U combo feels perfect.

It's useful information when you want to determine what an exclusive is worth. For example Sony owns right to Rime. I'm making a strong guess here when I say it won't be available on other platforms than PS4 for the time being. That isn't necessarily the case with some other games that launch only on PlayStation (maybe with some kind of exclusivity deal or otherwise). It's less of a factor when you already own the machine but more so when you are looking to buy one.
That said I'm in the wrong here and I apologize for my shameful display. Tbh I don't even know why I answered to that post in the first place.
I wouldn't sell your PS4, well I wouldn't have upgraded my computer and bought a PS4 at the same time either if I was crunched for money. Though, you have the PS4 now you may as well keep it and use it instead of trying to sell it for less.
If you're that crunched for money that you need to sell it, then you shouldn't get a Wii U either just use the money for what matters.
Just get a Wii U at a later date, what I'm going to do.

I don't think I've ever sold a console. Gotta catch em all!
Anyway, for me personally Bloodborne is easily the most appealing exclusive coming in the next few months on any platform. Your preference may vary, of course. I would personally keep the PS4 and reconsider in a few months time when you can hopefully pick up a Wii U cheaper anyway.

This is wonderful!
Let's see...
Persona 5
Disgaea 5
God Eater 2 Rage Burst
Earth Defense Force 4.1
Toukiden Kiwami
Dragon Quest Heroes
Bladestorm: Nightmare
Yakuza Zero
And many more. I'm getting sick of posts like yours claiming PC is the be all end all of gaming. Stop being so shortsighted.
Its okay as long as you know you made a mistake. Like sometimes I go overboard on my nintendo criticism.

Or do nothing and... profit?
OP I'm in a similar situation.
Sold my 3DS XL and games to get PS4 games/headset/etc. since I was getting an iPhone 6 plus for portable gaming.
Turns out I really miss my 3DS and haven't been playing much PS4. Now I know it's dumb, but I kind of want to trade in my PS4 for a n3DS and a bunch of games.
My indecisiveness is crippling.

Ha! I actually found this post via Twitter. Juniors gonna junior.
OP: I'd say keep the PS4, and try to find a deal on the Wii U. It isn't exactly setting the world on fire as far as sales are concerned, and it makes sense that a price cut should be around the corner. Or, ask your buddy if he's willing to return the favor. Kids are usually fickle, so maybe his child has moved on already and wouldn't particularly miss MK8.
So will the PS4 games, Anyway it's really up to you, but as many others have stated most of the games on PS4 you can also buy on PC, so you'll only miss the exclusive stuff, If you're fine with that then get a Wii U, If you feel you want the PS4 exclusives more then hold on to it.
Sometimes? You make DragonSworne look like me lol.
In all seriousness though, if OP can keep the PS4 he should. Otherwise he should spring for a Wii U because clearly that's what he wants now. PS4 will be solid this year but Wii U's 1st party lineup is solid now for OP's tastes.
Now that's one hell of a bold statement. A bit rash doncha think?

It's such a completely different concept of a game compared to what Nintendo puts out that that is just a ridiculous thing to say.

I'd advise trying to have both but, if you don't see much appeal in Sony's first party but do in Nintendo's then go for it.

Op also needs to realize that with the cost of Nintendo's software, selling his PS4 and jumping to the Wii U won't net him much.
Keeping what he's got and just saving what little he can towards a Wii-U makes a lot more sense.
The never ending cycle.
I've learned to keep the hardware after I got rid of my 360. Gave it to my cousin because I took a break from fighting games and got caught up in the PS4 hype, but it turns out there was nothing I felt like I really wanted to play until last month. Looking back at the decision, that was incredibly stupid because fighting games was pretty much the only console games I played in the last few years.
If you feel like you'll have any kind of urge to play a game on a system, keep it. If the system is still getting new games in the early-mid life cycle, keep it. There might be new games announced that may appeal to you.
Not really comparable. Though as action games I do think the souls series is better than platinum games' which is the only real action game on Wii u so I guess that fits?
Pretty much this. Unless you don't plan on getting the PS4 later and just sticking with Wii U and PC. If you don't want the PS4 ever again, then yeah, it sounds like Wii U is the better deal for you.
But if you think you'll want the PS4, I'd save up and just buy a Wii U when you can.
