Re: Poll: The Wii U is Four Years Old, But What Is Its Legacy?

I absolutely love my Wii U. I have never once regretted being a Day One adopter. I still love my Wii U, and I'll continue to play it for years and years to come.

@Turbo857 Truthfully, I think it will be viewed as a remarkable and woefully underrated system as the Dreamcast is regardless of the Switch's success. Let ten years separate us from the console's life, and it'll be remembered more fondly than it was treated during life.

If the game performs like crap, it doesn't matter how pretty it looks. I think they need to market it as a handheld that can be played at home (like how Sony once tried to market the PS4, when paired with the Vita, as a home console that can be played on the go.

I think the Switch will be fantastic. I'm expecting graphics a bit better than the Wii U, but I'm certainly not expecting PS4 levels. I think Nintendo has finally found their mojo again with this.

This makes me extremely sad but doesn't surprise me at all. In a lot of ways, the Wii U is Nintendo's Dreamcast; an amazing system that was sadly overshadowed by technically superior competition.

I still love my Wii U, and I'm proud to have 60+ titles on my shelf (most of which are actually good games). RIP you confused, beautiful, little black box. I'll still love you.

Re: Nintendo Switch Will Be a Single-Screen Experience

I'd be lying if I said I'm not a little disappointed because of how well the second screen worked for a some of the Wii U's games, but I think it would have been a huge mistake not to go back to single screen gameplay given that this is supposed to be a handheld/console hybrid.

@KTT
Yeah, I don't understand why people are saying there's not D-pad; have you guys never placed a PlayStation console? All 4 home consoles and both handhelds have had separated D-pads like that.
