My next major purchase is going to be a WiiU, hopefully by next Monday infact, and this list is stupid enough to almost put me off.
I'm buying it because it's the only way to play the latest Nintendo games, and even then, I'm not willing to spend as much on it as I did on my second 3DS. That's it.
In every other respect the PS4, XO, PC, and frankly even PS3 and 360 piss over it from a great height.
Hell, I already have more games for my PS4 than I want for the WiiU, even counting all the upcoming titles.
Buying Nintendo hardware is just the 'Nintendo tax' you have to pay if you want to be able to play their games. They have no benefit beyond that.
But I'll be fucked if I'm not willing to pay it to play more Mario Kart.
