I'm one of those lapsed Nintendo fans. I grew up on the old Nintendo and Super Nintendo. I have a Wii, but I got out of the habit of playing it. After I saw the Splatoon demo videos, I went to Best Buy to test the Gamepad controller. No other game has motivated me to do that. I pre-ordered the Best Buy Splatoon bundle.
Splatoon is not the only reason for me to get the console. It is the tipping point. I also want Donkey Kong: Tropical Freeze, 3D Mario, several of the virtual console games, etc.
I'm buying the Wii U because I want Splatoon. Surely, I'm not the only person who is ready to take the plunge specifically for that one game. I do wish we were getting this bundle in the U.S., however.
