To re sell?
Surely you don’t stockpile Wii U’s
Then again this is GAF
Some were for resell and some I kept for a period of time. I used to flip games & consoles right about when the retro game market started to blow up.

I got addicted to the leaderboard.
there was a few cheesy things you could do like how many times you jumped or died I would just leave the game on a lot to get top 10 ten on most of that
also trying to 100% it but there were a few late game bosses I could not take down
I'm pretty sure that I'll get Bayonetta 1 and 2 sometime soon - but how is NInja Gaiden 3 RE?
I've never played NG3 before, (heard it was pretty bad) - I only played NG Black on original Xbox, and NG2 on Xbox 360... Is NG3 RE as good of a game like NGB and NG2?
6 months is a very long timeI've booted up Tropical Freeze the last few days and was reminded of some weird technical issues the WiiU has (or maybe it's just mine) like how the last time I played the system I had completely charged my Gamepad and pro controllers, but every time I go like 6 months without playing anything on it the Gamepad and ProCons need to be charged again. They just lose charge when not in use for a while.
Also It's a gamble just to get the damn thing to work on any given wifi network. I've tried everything and it refuses to work with my Wifi. I used to have a LAN adapter but lost it somewhere last time I moved. Anybody else ever have to deal with this crap?
Now I just try to use only the ProCons as to conserve the Gamepad, but man I gotta say the WiiU Pro Controller is one of Nintendo's best. It's lightweight, super comfy, and I actually like the right stick on top. Also the Gamepad is way more comfy than the Switch.

Razor's Edge is a significant improvement to vanilla NG3, but that's not saying much. Vanilla NG3 took out the dismemberment mechanic and most of the weapons that were in NG2, along with any sort of challenge. You could basically just tap/hold heavy attack to win.
Razor's Edge tried to rectify this by adding those things back in, but it's clear the game wasn't built from the ground up with those mechanics in mind. The most annoying thing in NG3RE is how there's no healing items and you can only heal by using ninpos; it's really dumb. Most of the bosses suck too.
RE is still pretty good, but is a step down from it's predecessors.
I just recently got it and my copy is still sealed. Will be my next game to play. Wii U is my fave Nintendo console ever, too bad the branding and price killed it before it had its chance to shine more.I'm currently playing yoshis wooly world with my son. Im Surprised how good this game is

That collection has a lot of overlap with mine, I should really remember it’s there more often.Necro bump.
How about this folks, my Wii U backlog. And you can add the console itself to the list, I think I bought it five or six years ago and it has yet to be unboxed (I hope it works). I've bought everything I want, along with a few Wii games that it'll play. I'm also waiting on a pro controller, I don't want to use the Wii U gamepad, or whatever its called as I want a different experience to my Switch.
Anywho, I bought all these over the past year, good choices? I'm missing the Metroid Trilogy, is that Wii or Wii U? And will there be any point in double dipping for the Switch versions? I was thinking of getting Captain Toad, Super Mario 3D World and New Super Mario Bros U for it.
Incidentally I've never played any of these. Not one. Ever.
Btw, will the aforementioned pro controller play the Wii games or will I need a Wiimote to get the best out of them?
Wooly World is my favorite Yoshi game, though it's fair to mention that I feel meh about most of the others (even though i grew up playing em). The level design somehow --- SOMEHOW -- keeps introducing new twists to the player even several worlds in. I consider myself a well seasoned platforming genre fan, but I was still impressed. I don't usually enjoy collectathons, either, but even so I had a lot of fun completing WW.I'm currently playing yoshis wooly world with my son. Im Surprised how good this game is
Well...I'm not big on posting threads, but i picked up one yesterday and thought it would be good to get one going. So, yesterday i did some trading and picked up a Black Wii U 32Gb with a pro controller and three games: Super Mario 3d world, Sonic Transformed, Xenoblade Chronicles X, Lego Dimensions, and Lego City Undercover. I've got a list created of more games I want to pick up, as well as some modding to be able to play Gamecube games and run some emulation. I bought one back when the Wii U first came out and enjoyed it but the slow release of games and the excitement from the soon to launch PS4 caused me to trade it in on a PS4 when it released. So there are a lot of games that i missed and want to play. Plus there are some great games for my kids to enjoy. In fact, my son's eyes went wide when he saw the Lego Dimensions box and was really excited about me hooking it up. So what's everyone's thoughts on the Wii U in 2020? Any good (or bad) memories? Favorite game you love from this system?

Are there any games that specifically require the tablet to play/complete?

I have both consoles and I can tell you, there isn't a single Wii U to Switch port that is worth the 45$ asked for.And will there be any point in double dipping for the Switch versions
You should give it a chance, the Gamepad is really comfortable. I would suggest using it, as well as putting it on the cradle for it to charge whenever you don't use it, and eventually get a better battery from (a cheap one, not an official one). Some games require the Gamepad anyway (and they are awesome, you should experience them : Zombi U, Xenoblade Chronicles X, Tokyo Mirage, Project Zero or Nintendo Land...). Many games offer inventory management on the Gamepad, it is really convenient (both Zelda games, Shovel Knight) etc...I don't want to use the Wii U gamepad
That's a Wii game. Wii requires a functioning Wiimote to play, and you will have to install the sensor bar. I don't play any Wii games because of this, it is a hassle. However, I play a ton of Gamecube games, you simply have to softmod the console and install Nintendon't. You can play them directly on the Gamepad as well. As the Gamepad is 480 lines, it is a perfect fit for the Gamecube resolution. Also, you MUST try Gameboy Advance games on Wii U (through the official releases or through Retroarch). The Gamepad is a PERFECT fit for it, the games are absolutely magnificent played on it. And more generally, you can emulate all these older consoles perfectly and enjoy them on the Gamepad with integer scaling and a big nice picture as the resolution of the screen is a great fit for all these games.I'm missing the Metroid Trilogy, is that Wii or Wii U?
That looks pretty good.There is actually still a game coming to Wii U - and its exclusive too. Enter Bizerta: Silent Evil.

Bullet Club take note! For your new games on old systems thread
It does. I wrote a preview of the game and saw some unreleased footage. Its essentially a PS4/XBO game visually but at 720p.That looks pretty good.
Yep, the Wii U is a good system. I've still got mine.It really shows what Wii U is capable of.
It's the least unique of the 3D-Zelda's. Literally an edgy Ocarina of Time with a wolf I didn't care for. It's still a great game, but it definitely felt like Nintendo was pressured to do this game after some virgins complained about Wind Waker's art style.To me, outside of the dungeons, TP was the least Zelda like Zelda game of them all.
I bought my Pro Controller just to have a second for multiplayer and it was WELL worth the money. Enjoy charging it once a millennium.An unboxing six years in the making!
€260/$315 I paid back then. Only for it to be thrown in a wardrobe. That was during my almost 20 hiatus from games, I kept buying stuff and just added games and consoles to the pile. It's so nice that I'm getting back into them and fitting that its via Nintendo, whom I started off with almost 40 years ago!
Bought a third party Pro controller, only cost €30, happy with that, should have it Monday. Can't wait to get stuck in. Saying that I haven't powered everything up yet, fingers crossed
I repeat myself but definitely use the cradle and put your GamePad on it everytime you don't use it. It will make your experience much better. Get a cheap, bigger battery.An unboxing six years in the making!

Isn't MPT on disc expensive as fuck though?Metroid Prime Trilogy is a Wii game, it’s on the Wii U store though if you fancy digital (I’d go disc though).

Pfffft...I'm not spending £65 on a used game from CEX unless it's a mint condition copy of The Twin Snakes that I stumbled across when I just happened to pop in to window shop...except that actually happened and only I paid £40 for it.£65 here
Thats like only $100
stop being poor
I got lucky, got it in good condition on eBay a few years back. Haven’t had reason to look since, so good luck with that if you go for it.Isn't MPT on disc expensive as fuck though?
