- Why Did I Buy a Wii U in 2019!?
I'm a proud owner of a Nintendo Switch, but never owned the Wii U as I read nothing but terrible or disappointing things about it. I wanted to test the console for myself, so I decided to buy one once I saw a great deal on eBay. What's your favorite thing about the Wii U?
• Where can you find me? •

I bought a Wii u for a smooth 60 bucks with mk8, splatoon, and Lego avengers. If you want to, I would recommend homebrewing it. It opens up a lot of great functionality of the system!
You arent alone. I just picked up a wii u this weekend.
Lucky
Nice!!! What games did you get for it??
just bought one in 2020 love the wii u
Just bought one this week, homebrew it, its awesome
Hey man, congrats on getting a Wii U. It is my current console in 2019 and probably going into 2020, and I do NOT own a Switch. Hopefully you will find out just how amazing this console is. The two screens is a wonderful feature for Windwaker HD and several other games and I really don't want to lose it when going to a Switch. I definitely recommend getting an external HD with its own power supply (maybe 500gb). A highly underrated console, the Wii U still looks fantastic on screen and offers a truly unique approach to video games. Another recommendation is to transfer all your Wii data over to this Wii U and consider it a "Super Wii."
I love the Wii U, congrats on getting one in 2019! I really like the Wii U, so far its my favorite Nintendo home console.
Thank you! I play it at least twice a week. Loving it so far.
Last year I bought my Wii U CIB (Mario Kart 8 edition) with three games (BOTW, Smash Bros, Mario Color Splash) for $170. I bought a Wii U mainly for Xenoblade Chronicles X and I love the Wii U.
I have a Switch, but I really want a Wii U! My brother in law owns one and let's me play his. It's got a lot of great titles on it, it's too bad its potential success got ruined by poor marketing :(
FilthyIcon yeah
FilthyIcon I have a Wii U but I want a switch
FilthyIcon I have a Wii U love it!!
FilthyIcon Yeah it’s worth it especially for the Xenoblade games.
I have Wii u
These are the best titles for the Wii U in my opinion:
Batman Arkham City Armor Edition(Good use of the game pad)
Batman Arkham Origins(Best edition out of all consoles)
Captain Toad Treasure Tracker(very addicting)
Donkey Kong Country Tropical Freeze(amazing gameplay and graphics)
Legend of Zelda Breath of the Wild(good use of game pad)
Legend of Zelda Wind Waker HD(amazing graphics and good use game pad)
Need for Speed Most Wanted(nice map display on game pad)
Mario Kart 8(amazing graphics and awesome characters)
Pikmin 3(fun and addicting)
Rayman Legends(best version)
Super Mario Maker(Awesome online Levels and gameplay)
Super Smash Bros U(the best smash game before the switch)
Wonderful 101(super fun and underrated)
The Wii U is backwards compatible and plays hundreds of Wii games
AWESOME list, thanks for sharing it! I've gotten a few of those games since this video, and definitely will get more as I keep finding deals.
The dark knight and zombie u have a great experience
The dark knight WHERE IS 3D WORLD?!?!!??!!?
I love my Wii U! I have had it since launch back in 2012. And of course I have a switch, which I also do love. Although the Wii U has so many great games that I could never part from
I think they didn't find the right specs for the Wii u, I'm playing crash bandicoot 2 and final fantasy 7 at 60fps without a dynarec, I will do a video of it to prove that
Love these videos. I recently bought a Switch and it has opened the flood gates for my love of Nintendo. Dusted off the old Wii and bought a WII U. So many games I've missed and it's been fun it's been fun discovering all of them.
I too already had a Switch and yet bought a Wii U in 2019. Between the HD Zeldas, Pikmin 3, Xenoblade Chronicles X, and all the Virtual Console games, there was a lot I didn't want to miss out on.
You NEED to get Xenoblade Chronicles X. It's a super underrated gem on the system that still has a semi active player base. It's also extremely unlikely to be ported over to the Switch, as stated by the developers themselves. So if you want to play it, there's no other place to do so. It also has a crap ton of content (that admittedly varies in quality). So much so that you can put at least 500+ hours into the game and still not have done everything. But I might also want to mention that if you're not into open world RPG's it may not be your cup of tea.
Just a recommendation.
A friend gave me a copy as a gift!!! Have still yet to play it but I'm really looking forward to it.
I love the Wii U! I wish I had one, even more than a Switch, mainly because it’s cheaper and it has Breath of The Wild which I love
Good buy! I’ve been thinking to get one because I want Xenoblade Chronicles X. I am holding onto hopes that they may port it one day to the Switch. 🙏
Nintendo has re-invigorated gaming for me again with the Switch, I love it.
i really like wii u discs i like how its blue and the design in the front
Ok, i have a switch too, and got a Wii u at a garage sale 2 weeks ago, for 100 dollars they wanted 150, it had 2 pro controllers, 2 Wii controllers with nunchucks 6 guns 2 steering wheels and 46 games...yep 46, I havnt picked up my switch since, the dual screen games are fricking awsome, if I had known it was this good I would've bought one on launch, it's so good!!!
you got a bargain there , like you i just picked one up . i just want it for the platformers tbh nintendo make the best platform games hands down ...
That’s a good haul Juan! I would recommend an extra hard drive. Most WiiU games I bought were 20 or less. Mass Effect was 8 dollars for example, brand new. That’s insane.
Nobody is going to recommend Rodea, Sky Soldier or Devils Third, but I found enjoyment with both. So maybe watch a video or two and see if they might be your speed. Have fun dude, and you have a new sub.
Also, if you don’t have one, the Dreamcast is pretty cool. I got mine for $40, and most games hold up pretty well, plus the homebrew crowd keep making new ones. The aggregate cost is closer to $100 to buy all the stuff like memory cards, controllers, whatever, but the games can be burned to blank music CDs.
Hey Andrew!
I bought a hard drive recently as I know I'll be modding it in the near future (probably around December) so if you know of a great video tutorial let me know!
I haven't had much luck with sealed games but I did manage to pick up a sealed copy of Pikmin 3 at a good price. :)
I LOVE the Dreamcast. Power Stone. Sonic. Tokyo Xtreme Racer. Ready 2 Rumble. Virtua Tennis. Crazy taxi. Many great games were spent playing there. I own a Dreamcast though the controller ports are damaged and disconnect a lot. Works after a few tries though! I also have 2 VMUs. Loved playing around with them as a kid.
I'll be watching videos of Rodea and Devils for sure. I know a physical copy of that second game has become quite rare.
Thanks for the sub!!! Hope you enjoy the other videos on the channel. I'll also be streaming Ninja Gaiden III on the wii u next Friday right here. :)
that was a really good deal! Star Fox was a fun game but it flopped so I don't think they're getting that one on the switch anytime soon, especially because it needed the wiiu controller screen for a few things.
That's why I wanted to get it! Even if it's for a few games I want to be able to check them out and finally try the console. :)
The Wii U for me will be a system that I will always have respect for, seeing how I became a true fan of Nintendo during the N3DS and Wii U days.
Thanks to my dad getting me an original red N3DS back in 2011, I've been a Nintendo fan since.
With the Wii U, my hopes were extremely high with the system and I was rooting for Nintendo to succeed wit the system. They were going full-HD, their was so much potential with the Wii U GamePad, and various the third-parties were onboard (originally for the first two years of the system's life.)
Sadly, everything fell apart with Nintendo, during that era with the N3DS being the only system that helped them transition with the Switch, but despite all the troubles, I had fun with the Wii U.
Some many memories with Smash, Mario Kart, Nintendo Directs, and Miiverse that eventually led me to make multiple playlists just dedicated to the Wii U and N3DS era.
Awesome video! Absolutely love my Wii U. I got an awesome deal locally on OfferUp in February. 11 total games, 4 wii (MarioKart, Zelda TP & SS, Mario Party 8) and 7 Wii u (Batman AC, Mario Kart 8, NSMB - U +NSLB - U, Mario 3D Land, SSB Wii U, Zelda BOW, and Zombie U), 2 Wiimotes w/ nunchucks, all for $120. It was dirty but otherwise in good shape.
Point being to look at local seller apps like OfferUp, Let it go, Facebook groups ect.. Often they have FAR superior deals than Ebay, Mercari, Craigslist, or brick and mortar game stores.
Thanks for watching!! That is an awesome deal. The key to good deals like that is patience.
I bought A Nintendo Switch and had it for less then a month, i was not happy with it and so i got rid of it and downgraded to A Wii U instead. I dont care what nobody says. Im happy with a Wii U and not to mention the games .
What didn't you like about the switch? The only thing I don't care for is the Nintendo Tax on games, I hate paying $60 for a wii u port
@@liamlyda2116 Its nothing major. Ok, I Super Smash Bros. I loved the characters they had, i just hated how they looked tho. Every character had a washed out almost white color, making there colors look just white. The characters lacked bright fun colors. Mario Kart is ok (Not better then Double Dash). I liked there characters too, but i couldn't get into the stages how they looked...life-like. Maybe im still just a kid and look into these things a little too much. But this isnt the Nintendo i grew up with. N64 and Gamecube will always be #1 for me lol. But people that like Resident evil, shooting games, mortal kombat, then yeah its for you because the graphics are amazing. Just not for me tho.
@@littlemonster7280 I can understand that, my first nintendo system was the DS (I'm only 16) but I still prefer any gameboy and still carry one with me everywhere, idk why I like the gameboy more as I had a DS first it's kinda weird, but I grew up with a Ps2 and it is still probably my favorite console, the Switch is a close second tho
@@liamlyda2116ive only had my switch for a few weeks and when i lock my joy-cons on the handheld console, the joy cons keep slipping up even tho they were locked in place...i hated that. Only had the switch for a few weeks. So your a handheld kind of guy! Those are rare to come by. Thats awesome. Have you ever tried the Wii U?
@@littlemonster7280 yes an no, my brother in law has a Wii U and I hang out with him and his friends and we would all play Mario Kart or smash bros together which was really fun but now smash and Mario kart are on the switch (I literally just got my switch 6 days ago so I haven't picked them up yet). I loved the original Wii but the lack of HDMI is killing me but I still loved all of those games so I'm debating on picking up a wii u, there is one of facebook Marketplace right now for $75 and has Wind Waker and Twighlight princess which makes me want to bite the bullet and buy it
I have an N64 (legendary gaming). A Gamecube (awsome graphics) A Wii (took consoles to another level of pure fun) I play all of them and each one is unique. My 8 and 7 year old sons love the Mario world of fun. Wii U next, stock up on some A rated titles that only the competition can envy. Nintendo is decades of joy.
Nintendo really is something special. Great to know your sons and you have that special connection through gaming. :)
I bought a wiiu in 2019 so I could put homebrew on it. Literally bought one last week lol
Lol
Same, i think i never spend my money better
@JitzyJay i dont know, i never spend money for gamestop
@JitzyJay Yes, I just got one almost a week ago for $99.00 best money I have ever spent 💯
@JitzyJay What is this homebrew everyone is speaking of?
I bought a Wii U yesterday. 120 €, came with Mario kart 8, Zombi U, and Starfox zero (factory sealed). Looking out to mod it and play all GameCube, Wii and Wii U games!
Man, the Wii U was my childhood since I was 7 back in the year 2012, just like the 3DS, DS, Wii, and a little bit of GBA. I remember wanting it for New Super Mario Bros. U and for that cool Gamepad.
Also, here are some good games that weren't ported or third parties, but are worth trying out:
-The Legend of Zelda: Twilight Princess HD (Played)
-Paper Mario: Color Splash (Don't have)
-Mario Party 10 (Don't have)
-Star Fox: Zero (Don't have)
-Wii Fit U (Don't have)
-Wii Party U (Don't have)
-Wii Sports Club (Played)
-The Wonderful 101 (Don't have)
-Pikmin 3 (Don't have)
-Super Smash Bros. For Wii U (Played)
-Splatoon (Don't have)
-Sing Party (Don't have)
-Kirby and the Rainbow Curse (Don't have)
-Mario Tennis: Ultra Smash (Don't have)
-Super Mario 3D World (Don't have) (Man, my collection feels small.)
-Mini Mario and Friends - Amiibo Challenge (Played)
-Nintendo Land (Don't have. Just kidding, I played it)
-Game & Wario (Don't have)
-Dr. Luigi (Don't have)
-Pokémon Rumble U (Don't have)
-Xenoblade Chronicles X (Don't have)
-Tokyo Mirage Sessions #FEedMe (Don't have)
-Mario & Sonic at the Olympic Games (Don't have)
-PAC-Man and the Ghostly Adventures 1 & 2 (Don't have)
Some of these games are what I don't have, but wish to have. :\ Also, a few of these that I mentioned are okay games by people's reviews.
You got a killer deal. I bought mine from GameStop a few weeks ago for $90, but it didn't come with any of the charging docks or a pro controller. By the time I bought WWHD and TPHD it cost me around $140 after taxes.
my reason for having wiiu: modding
I think many folks confused the Wii U for.the Wii, due to Nintendo not showing the actual system and the fact the system looks a lot like a Wii. If you.get a screen protector, the scratch might not be so noticable.
I love the back play of the Wii and it has the option to play Wii games on the pad where you can play games that are not Wii remote compatible. I love Pokken Tournament and Bayonetta 2 as well as Super Mario 3D World, Splatoon and I can go on. It is an underappreciated system. I love my Wii-U.
Meme Run
Three weeks ago I bought a Wii U with a pro controller and Mario Kart 8 pre installed for 70€. I love it.
Games to buy
1. Breath of the Wild
2. Mario Kart 8
3. LOZ :Twilight Princess
4. Smash Bros
5. Splatoon
6. Mario and Sonic at the winter Olympics
7. Bayonetta 2
8. Paper Mario Color Splash
9. Mario Tennis
10. Mario 3D World (I play this more than anything else)
So many more to list but that should get you started
Whatever wii games you want
the best thing about the wii u is that theres a game type for everyone. like a zombie game? get zombiu or survival instinct. like a gta game? theres not one but watch dogs is good enough! mario, zelda, splatoon, donkey kong but no metroid? actually theres the prime trilogy collection thats not extremely expensive! sports games, party games all sorts. brought my wii u in feb 2017
I did the same. I own a Switch but wanted to play Virtual Console and 3D World (now). I can’t believe how cheap Wii U games are and love it.
I've seen great deals on Facebook marketplace but YMMV. All together I've spent about $150 and played through Windwaker HD/Super Mario 3D World/Pikmin 3/Captain Toad Treasure Tracker and I've got Twilight Princess HD & Star Fox in my backlog. It's weird, I play the Wii U as much or more than the switch. Also you can mod the system to inject N64/GBA/Gamecube games.
I bought the zelda edition wii u for $160 with 4 games. New Super Mario Bros. U, Donkey Kong Tropical Freeze, Ducktales Remastered, and Super Mario 3D World. The previous owner also had a bunch of wii u and wii virtual console games on it. The console is a bit scratched but a good price for all those games. I also figured I'd buy one as soon as possible since prices are rising.
That's a great set of games! Hope you're enjoying the console. :)
@@PlayerJuan Yeah so far so good. Slowly expanding my library and I'm enjoying it a lot!
I just received my Wii U a few days ago. Found a good deal on eBay for a like-new 32gb deluxe edition in pristine condition, with 3 games (Super Mario Bros U, Super Mario 3D World and NintendoLand) and a wireless pro controller for $100 shipped. Been playing for a few days and I'm loving it so far. It's a damn shame Nintendo didn't do it justice. It's a nice system that had loads of potential.
That's a great deal with a solid line-up of games. I still need to buy NintendoLand. Wish the console got more love. :( Thanks for watching!
7:14 I could tell that that Wii U you have is used because my Wii U has a yellow AC adapter plug and a red sensor bar plug, while yours is black. So that person probably cleaned it very well.
Xenoblade Chronicles X, Twilight Princess HD, Super Mario 3d World, and Pikmin 3 are all must grab games for the system. Plenty of VC and Wii games as well.
Great list of games! Twilight Princess HD will be once I get eventually after I FINALLY beat Wind Waker.
I bought a Zelda Wii-U on eBay about 3 weeks ago. And it July 27, 2020 now. No I don’t have a Switch. The only game console I had is GameCube. I’m really loving my Wii-U. The graphics are amazing. I can’t believe how much I’m actually enjoying it. I’m getting used to the double screen. I’m really happy I decided to buy the Wii-U. It’s definitely amazing and so much fun.
I’ve had mine for about 6 or 7 years now. Probably my favourite console of all time
Also windwaker is fn awesome! One of my top 3 favorite video games of all time.
Got a Wii U just a while ago since I didn't know you can get almost every Metroid game in the system, although I do have the physical versions, having a digital backup in one system is pretty nice, plus playing the poetible games in the series on TV is just great.
Yeah Nintendo has history for chunky power supply cables, so no surprise there.
What was a surprise is how incredibly heavy is the Wii U console (Console, not the Game-Pad) for a Nintendo system.
I got mine wii u 32 GB mario 8 pack yesterday for the same reasons. And I can still play my wii games on this console..its really something else.
Love it.
Yeah it's a great combination! Hope you enjoy your Wii U.
Would you recommend the wii u thinking about buying one
@@judyx5083 yes I do
I just bought my Wii U yesterday 😁
Awesome!!! Hope you enjoy it. :)
@@PlayerJuan I am! It cost $225 USD and came with 60 games. The only problem is the console is Japanese so I can't read anything, but the games are English.
"Are the actual Wii u...DAMN" 😂😂 My stomach is currently doing the Cha Cha slide
I wasn't prepared for that brick!!!
Brings back memories to when I got a wii u with the smash bros and splatoon bundle. I have a switch but I want to get a wii u again so I can play splatoon 1 and many other games the switch doesn't have.
Get Xenoblade Chronicles X, huge, fun, and affordable game, only on the Wii U. Can't get much better than that.
A friend gifted me the game so I'll be playing it in the near future for sure!
I have an Xbox one s. But games are really expensive and I only play with ea access. So do you think it's a good decision to sell XBox and buy wii u?
Wow awesome. I love the Wii U. I have been playing it a lot recently and buying all the games I can. I suggest Fatal Frame since it's eShop exclusive. The Wonderful 101 and Mario 3D World are good too.
I thought the Wii u store was closed?
I just got a new gaming pc for christmas which is I absolutely love but one game I've been wanting to play for a long time was the Project Zero Maiden of Blackwater for WiiU. Unfortunately the WiiU emulator on pc was having a really hard time with running the game and it kept crashing all the time so turning desperate I ended up getting a WiiU just to play it. Although I didn't regret getting it, I did think it was still quite a bit of money to get just for one game so I decided to mod it which was the first time I ever modded anything so I was kinda nervous that I would do something wrong and end up bricking it but thankfully I was able to do it correctly. Still haven't really gotten to do much exploration on it since I just got it a couple of days ago, but knowing how much more it's capable of is really cool.
The Wii U Pro Controller can last 80 hours of use. Games to get... Mario Maker, Super Mario 3D World, Breath of the Wild, Windwaker (which you own), Twilight Princess, Xenoblade Chronicles X, Need For Speed Most Wanted U, Reyman Legends and Smash Bros.
80 hours is insane!! I've been having a blast playing the Wii U so far. I MAYYY get Mario Maker 1 if I find a good deal on it.
Obviously, mario maker 1 and Splatoon were some of the best, with both having decent Amiibo support. Pikmin 3, 3D World, and Wooly World are awesome exclusives that have a lot of things to do. I also suggest Nintendo Land and Wii U Party.
Im getting this for christmas 😀
Awesome!!! Hope you enjoy it. 😃
Word of the wise: pick up Super Mario Advance 4: Super Mario Bros. 3 on the Gameboy Advance Virtual Console. It is easily the definitive version of the game. It has the upgraded visuals of the GBA, and the all the exclusive levels from the e-Reader on the ROM, which you can’t even get even if you owned all the cards and an e-Reader. The actual cartridge can’t even hold all of the card levels at once.
Oh I didn't know about that!! Thanks a lot.
Glad I was able to help!
Also, if you ever plan on playing Fire Emblem Shadow Dragon, pick it up on the Wii U Virtual Console. Ever since the DS WiFi Connection got shutdown, the only way to get the online shop items (Elysian Whips, Brave Weapons) is through the Wii U port.
I also bought one this week. I think it has a really big catalogue of games. And the use of the gamepad with some games like arkham city, it is amazing. I think it has some things that are better than switch.
Love my wii u it is under rated and was under marketed in my opinion I suggest darksiders 2 , xenoblade chronicles x just for starters
I may do a Xenoblade Chronicles X stream in the future to try it out. A friend gave me a copy of it!
@@PlayerJuan It is great looking game and long there is lots of side missions too.
I absolutely love my WiiU and is a solid system. Don’t necessarily care for the ginormous ac adapter though 😂. Also if I’m not mistaken this would be the last console system that the late Sakura Iwata (former CEO of Nintendo of Japan) had an influence in being hands on in all. It’s just a shame that nobody really supported this amazing system the way it deserved to be treated. Anyways I’m very happy with mine and that’s all I can say. Also unless a new Nintendo console comes out this would be the last disc based Nintendo system as well
You got a great vlog voice, I know you have enjoyed the Wii U a lot since this video.
Thank you!! And yes I have. The interesting thing about this video is I almost didn't record it. I was tired and just got home from work, hence why I'm not physically on camera, haha. Everything turned out pretty well!
The wii u is awesome, I'd suggest jailbreaking it, you can the play gamecube and wii games on there natively
That's the long-term goal with it, specially for GameCube support. For the time being I plan on playing it - as it- to get the original experience.
@@PlayerJuan yea that's exactly what I did. Once I got through the wii u games that came with my console I decided to open it up and it unleashed a whole new world.
Hey everyone! If you're interested in chatting live while I play a few classics consider following my Twitch channel at: www.twitch.tv/mrplayerjuan
Played games such as: Super Mario Galaxy, Judgment, Prince of Persia: The Sands of Time, Resident Evil 3 and many others. :)
@Manfred Ädelrot 18NA-SPEAST Elev You dont have 100-150 Dollar?
@Manfred Ädelrot 18NA-SPEAST Elev I have a couple of thousand Dollar, how old are you?
@Manfred Ädelrot 18NA-SPEAST Elev Don't you get pocket money?
I love mine. I actually have two. Got them both for about $150. Very under rated.
great console i just bought one in 2020,,80quid with 3 games ,,,great system ,,
I wish more people would buy wii U games
Definitely pick up Nintendo Land! Also Nintendo Remix is awesome! Paper Mario color splash is good too
I do need to get NintendoLand! That's been added to the list. :)
Holy crap. I got one too in 2019. Actually what I did was buy Xenoblade CX and Twilight Princess in 2017 without owning a WiiU. I bought the latter because of the Link Wolf to use on the Switch Zelda game. My idea was to buy a used WiiU, but at the time the console sold for $250. Forget that. So I waited. Played my Switch games (Zelda & XC2) then bought a PS4 in June 2018 and since I was so behind with PS4 exclusives, I started building that library. I didn’t start playing PS4 games until Yakuza 0 became a PS4 $20 red box game. Then I got into that. 2019 hit and I checked on those WiiU prices, which were still a bit high for my liking. I kept growing the PS4 library, then on one of those days I saw that the WiiU Black was selling for under $100. Great price, I thought. The only thing missing was the little recharge station. It wasn’t until month 4 and many more WiiU game purchases later and beating CONTROL that I fired up the WiiU for the first time.
Holy Hell!!! I was immediately blown away as I could see the origins of the Switch unfold in my own home.
I started with XCX and haven’t put down the gamepad since. I already broke an analog stick and quickly bought a replacement for it. It’s been 350 hours of gameplay so far, which has been spread across 2 months.
The game is amazing and the control touchscreen pad adds to the experience. I wish more games did this and I lament that my Switch is incapable of this feature. At least for right now. Currently, all I can think of is going home to Mira and spending time with the Indigens of that hostile planet.
So yeah. The WiiU has been worth every single penny. It’s been a steal.
Patience is key! Great to know you (like me) could find a Wii U for a much cheaper price than previous years. I need to continue playing XCX. Streamed it for a few hours and loved the world, but haven't made much process as I started playing Star Wars KOTOR on the original Xbox. Gonna pick it back up after.
Thanks for watching the video and I really appreciate your comment!
You got a good deal. I got a Wii U that had MULTIPLE noticeable scratches on the game pad. The Wii U itself wasn't the best thing either. Did not come with any games. Also, it didn't have a stand for some reason. Plus I got it for 180$ and it was 32gb.
I’m getting a wii u on Saturday I’m so hype :))
@MangoRanga Today is Saturday :D
Today is october 28 bruh
10:46 my favourite
Mario maker
Wii U is underated. You should get Lego City Undercover and ZombiU two great games that work great with the gamepad
Love Wii U! By far my favorite Nintendo system. An extremely underrated system. I've owned every Nintendo system lol including the Virtual Boy. Had to sell my wii u years back when bill's were piling up after getting hurt at work but just bought one on Ebay today $90 and comes with Smash. Can't wait for it to come in!
@@ericolens3 I've owned em both and they are both great systems. My xbox one just sits and collects dust lol. Have a lot more fun with retro games on my nes n as nes and the wii u.
@PPG-Darkness Green no the Wii u was used but was it pretty good shape for the price. Some scratches on the system so got a splatoon skin to put on it. Just look on Ebay there's plenty of em on there for cheap
the same,i bought a wii u before 8 months and im excited,you must play zombie u,trust me it is a great experience the wii tablet
Zelda Twilight Princess is good too. It hasn't made the Switch yet. Don't know if it will.
I honestly liked the games. And I like the old ones from the native system, not a fan of the switch versions
I watched this video last year and I had a wii u before but it got destroyed in an electrical accident and decided to pick one up in 2019 and now half way into 2020 I have a decent collection both physical and digital and use it to play all my wii games on an hd tv
Great to know you were able to pickup another one and continue building that collection!!
I just bought a brand new unopened unused Wii U on eBay for $750.00 😂I always wanted one but I was going through some personal issues and never had the money for anything fun. Besides, most of the games are cheaper than the Switch games. I have a Switch, but for example now I can buy Bayonetta on Wii U for $30 instead of $60. Most games are way cheaper. PLUS there’s virtual console on Wii U. It’s like getting six consoles for the price of one! Sorry, I have to justify spending that much to myself 😊
You really deserve MUCH more views and likes.
Thank you! Always try my best to put out great videos and hope to provide a bit of entertainment in the process. :)
Your profile picture triggers me
I hate your profile picture
I just got my hands on a black Wii U a few days ago myself,so your not the only crazy one ✅
Awesome!! What games are you thinking of playing?
Player Juan would like to get in to Zelda and some rpg’s on the system as well action games,already started my Mario collection so far....
In addition to these games I also got Super Mario 3D World. Love how it's looked in videos so I can't wait to get started on that. Hope your Mario collection keeps growing!
Player Juan thanks I also love how Mario 3D world looks as well,that’s the first one I stared I hope you enjoy....
The Wii U is underrated. The games are extremely affordable on Ebay. The Switch is way too much money. Also, you can have Netflix, UA-cam, etc on Wii U. You do not have those features on the switch.
i got Wii u 32gb about 2 months ago $134 plus tax at ebgames here in Canada

@@ytwy_ Regina last time i was time was at ebgames they had one left
I got a Wii U for Christmas 2020 and it looked like it was never used
I still got my black Wii U and the Virtual Console and some indie games you want to check out is really shovel knight and year walk and slender the arrival all cheap games and gameboy advance games are really good on Wii U all metroid and mega man zero and mario advance series unless if you own the mario all stars for wii and super mario maker and everything mega man and castlevania or merroidvania on gba so yeah you got a great deal plus mario 3d world.
Shovel Knight is a GREAT game! Have it on 3DS and Switch. Hadn't heard of Year Walk. Megaman Zero is something I'm definitely interested in. Excited to start playing 3D World soon. Thanks for watching and commenting!!
I love the Wii U and don't care what others say about it!
I have a Wii u!! It’s a shame most games won’t go onto the Nintendo switch...like Kirby returns to dreamland, Nintendoland (nintendoland would probably never make it since its boring) even super Mario 3D world really a shame
That is a good deal! I bought mine last month for $109 and it only came with Mario Kart 8 and its original box.
Yeah I was very surprised at the price. Hope you've been enjoying your Wii U! :) Thanks so much for watching.
I feel like Nintendo got it right with the Wii U. I feel like the marketing destroyed the console. And forced developers to utilize the damn gamepad. I wish the Switch an ingerphase like the wii u's god do i miss clicking on the little miis and reading peoples opinions on games. #bringbackmiiverse
Wii party u is the game I wish you'd try out!
I definitely plan on trying it! Keeping an eye out for deals on eBay for it as I want to make sure the game comes with the Wii U pad stand.
i got one for £75. Absolutely amazing. The 'gamepad' (with the screen) is so responsive its amazing and its nice and bright and looks good and the TV remote function on it worked flawlessly with my TV.... which is also super handy. hacking it is going ok so far......
Wow, you really luck out big-time! Does this eBayer sale/anymore Wii U consoles?
Unfortunately not. Went back to check but no other consoles. :(
Instead of a ps4, I got a Wii u back in 2014 cause I knew the Wii u would be special in the long run. It's like the Dreamcast of it's generation.
Legend of Zelda the Windbreaker
The only zelda game I played was mojaras mask for the Nintendo 64
what a console, great selection of zelda games you can get. you got a great deal
A great console indeed. Thanks for watching!! :)
I did the same thing to even though I have a switch
tortoise games too
Xenoblade Chronicles X, Pikmin 3, ZombieU, Super Mario 3D World, and.... Haxchi lol
I managed to get all of chose except Pikmin 3. I assume Haxchi is to mod? What kind of support/features does it bring?
@@PlayerJuan its a hack that allows you to install homebrews and emulators like retroarch. there are lots of tutorials on youtube to do it safely. it was pretty simple and easy to do, even for a technologically inept person such as myself.
:D good job m8 the wii u is the best retro console ever
Honestly ive been wishing a Wii U since 2014
Why because its worth it ...
I literally have never read a single bad thing about WiiU, despite reading a lot about it, so I don't know where you heard all those terrible things)
Do u know what happens to your purchased digital downloads if u mod your wii u? Thx
Great deal! I am selfishly praying for Wind Waker & Twilight Princess to be released on Switch soon.
I really need to start playing Wind Waker ASAP. I'm surprised they haven't released them for the Switch
@@PlayerJuan Wind Waker is a beautiful game. A game that was criminally underappreciated at the time - just like Luigi's Mansion!
But the nintendo switch has some wii games like super mario maker 2
