PreOrders are now being taken for the console at a few stores {300/350$s}. Anyone going to be buying one? |

Not at launch. I would never buy a console until it had a bunch of games I was interested in.  |

I've not owned a Nintendo system since the SNES. This one is looking nice certainly if you compare it to the rumors of what the new XBox/Playstation may be like. Apparently Bayonetta 2 will be a WiiU exclusive which... sucks beyond belief. The "controler" for the WiiU looks terrible to me... Though, Yea... I may be in for one after the first price drop. Certainly since even if you do pre-order it, It doesn't guarantee you get one on release day. |

It's too expensive. I can't afford to replace a 170 dollar controller. i care little for Mario's 3D iterations and have played enough of the rest not to pay for more. Twilight Princess was disappointing for a Zelda game and Skyward Sword just looks like more of the same. I don't have high expectations for the series' future. That covers the main franchises that once drew me to Nintendo. Unless some amazing looking third party exclusives come along or the next Zelda completely surprises me, I can't think of any reason to buy a Wii-U. |

Not really that excited for it. Maybe once the new SSB is announced. The $170 controller is pretty hilarious though. Great job there Nintendo.  |

It's pretty much taking advantage of the fact the market is heavily into gaming on mobile devices with similar touch screen...If you think it looks terrible you may be really behind on the times.  |

And what does that have to do with anything? People like gaming on their touch screen devices, obviously many people are capable of finding games/apps that they like and disregard ones they don't. Nintendo's controller doesn't look anymore terrible than any other device with a touch screen. If anything it's nicer because the screen is larger and will incorporate more standard controller functions than phones and such. |

The only way I'll get it is if it's given to me as a Christmas/birthday gift. |

Anime_Name said: You were criticizing him for thinking that, in his opinion and to HIM, it was a terrible controller. I pointed out that hey, maybe he doesn't like touch controls hence why it was bad to him. If you like touch controls and all that thing, be my guest, like it. I'm not stopping you.Leon-Gun said: Anime_Name said: Maybe he doesn't likes Touch screen games? I sure as hell don't.DeWinter said: The "controler" for the WiiU looks terrible to me...
