I still have a Wii U lying around and I'm definitely in no hurry to get a Switch anytime soon, so this is a very easy choice to make.

After seeing the presentation I probably won't get a Switch for at least a year.
So I'm buying Zelda in March for Wii U. Cannot wait!

I'm probably never buying a Switch, so yeah I'm buying BoTW for Wii U..I've waited this long. It's one of the few games that I think utilizes the game pad in a way that actually benefits gameplay and functionality. I just hope it runs as well as the Switch version or at least very close to it.

Was it confirmed? I fell asleep after the presentation and didn't see any Wii u mention
That'd be great if it's same day

I will. And it will be the last game I buy for Wii U before I sell it.
I had huge love for Nintendo during the 3th through the 5th Gen, but I think I'm not target audience anymore. I gave them a new chance with the Wii U but it just wasn't for me. So I don't think i'm getting a Switch (unless something changes and I get surprised) and my Wii U is just collecting dust at my living room. But I want to play the game.
I'll buy it used for Wii U. Then I'll say good-bye to Nintendo for the last time.

Is 1080p with solid framerate even a thing these days on CeMu ? For such big games ?

I'll buy the Wii U version and the Limited Edition Switch version.
Because it's Zelda.
And I NEEEEEEEEEEEED Zelda.
Also have the Wii U version on pre-order since June 21 2014.

I have my Wii U copy on preorder for a couple months and I was so happy it wasnt dealyed!
Question, do you think it will play better with the Pro controller? I heard tehy removed touch screen stuff so the switch port was easier is that true? I need to grab a Pro controller if that is the case.

Buying Wii U version, too, since I want to have a bit of spending money for Mass Effect Andromeda's release at the end of that month.
I'll wait for Switch until they have at least 3 games I want to play.

.. which it won't have until Mario Odyssey is out.

4K runs just fine, sometimes. Need a monster PC I suppose. Still, with the new WiiU hack, the emulator will make big leaps soon.

I am. I'll get Switch much later due to the events today. I'll just pretend the "real" launch to be this holiday and buy Mario.

Nope. I'll never buy a WiiU. I will get a Switch one day hopefully. Once they get around to putting some decent games on it and release a model that doesn't have such poor battery life.

I bought a WiiU to play a new Zelda. I look forward to playing it at the end of March

Same here. I was super hyped, woke up at 4:40 AM for it and went back to bed one hour later thinking "Meh, I am glad I caved in and got myself a PS4 Pro as well to supplement my WiiU.
Maybe in autumn I will but the Switch as I cannot miss a fully fledged Mario title, but for now Zelda WiiU will have to do.

Every WiiU gameplay video I've seen so far had some troubling framerate problems as soon as shit started happening. Add to that that they've been mum about the WiiU release date and I'm skeptical the WiiU version is the way to go.
Then again, I'm one of those guys who also bought new hardware at launch to get Twilight Princess as early as possible. In hindsight the correct decision, but no guarantee it'll be the right move here.

Scarily they have good reason to put it out in an awful state.

Promised myself to never buy a system on launch again, after the 3DS.
I though the presentation would change my mind, instead it made me don't feel bad for waiting.

I don't own a Wii U so I'm likely to get a Switch and Zelda on that... But I'd be lying if I didn't say that the launch line up and price of the Switch have me considering just picking up a Wii U instead.
I guess I'll wait then. I have a 1070, I know I can do most games on 1080p but if I can do Zelda BOTW on my 3440x1400 display there's no way I buy the Switch.

Exacly this.
I am getting on Wii U. Was about to pre-order the switch, amazon was out of it and after consideration I'll just wait for holiday when the game libary is a bit better. By then I hope to be able to pick up Mario, Xenoblade 2, Splatoon 2, Sonic Mania and Super Bomberman R (wife LOVES bomberman!).
So knowing that the Wii U version is same day release as switch version, I'll get it for Wii U, frame rate have never bother me that much in all the videos I saw honestly and the trailers yesterday had me wanting to know more of the story and everything!

i'm buying a WiiU to play this game (and TMS,XCX), WiiU will be well within my budget unlike switch that is way too expensive and has no games until SMO comes out.
And to think i was so in for switch yesterday.

This might be my last Nintendo game for a good long time. Not only did the presentation not sell my on the Switch, it's making my question my love of Nintendo.

Given that insane switch asking price. If i wouldn't have sold my wiiu, then without a doubt. Now it looks like i'll be spending 500 to play zelda.
