Pro controller, is not a good deal as is not working in all games. What we have to do is wait some time until xbox get something new. Will be cheaper for sure.

I just don't see the point of spending $400 when it will be outdated in a years time with the next gen consoles...

For the same reason a lot of people enjoyed the original Wii. Graphics don't always make the games.

I'll admit, the release schedule doesn't currently look so hot right now, but chances are good, you're not buying the Wii U as your main gaming device anyway.

Lego City Undercover looks really fun and it comes out next month. That will be Wii U game #6 for me. I like the system.

I agree. Where is the New Super Mario Bros. Wii U bundle? That's the only one that would matter to me. Better to just buy a Deluxe Wii U and NSMB U. Zombi U isn't anything special, as is NintendoLand. Just pack the only good exclusive game you've got and be done with it, Nintendo.

$10 less and they need to slap that Nintendoland sticker right on there. I don't think ZombiU makes use of the Pro Controller, but whatever. It apparently works with RE Revelations, but then why would you use a Pro Controller and miss out on the Wii U-exclusive stuff like off-screen play, quick item select or maps on the uPad?

I like NSMBU, but Nintendoland is a great game. I've had more fun with it than Mario. There's a lot of variety. While it's really fun with friends (using Wiimotes), there are still a good amount of single-player content.

I loved ZombiU! Thought it was great.

It uses the pro controller when playing multiplayer.

Wait till Feb 20, SONY is going to announce PS4.

Wii U hardware has been analyzed. It has a better GPU than a 360. CPU however is modified Wii CPU ... Wii you heard it right... piece of garbage CPU is a modification of the CPU from GameCube.

Do not waste your money on a Wii U. There is nothing unique about it and I suspect with weaker CPU it will not / Never out perform PS3 / 360. This Hardware is worth 199 max.

Horrible Sony GUI has basically left my PS3 as the 4th choice in the house. Hate it. My son hates it too. With that said if Sony can improve that and maybe make their controllers a little more comfortable then the new Sony system might end up in my house at some point. The only reason we still have the PS3 now is it is our blu-ray player.

As for the Wii U yes there is something unique about it. Have you even played a game or heck a demo on it ? Play the Rayman demo on it and tell me it isn't different than another system. You do not know what you are talking about.

People generally buy Nintendo consoles for Nintendo made games, waiting around for the PS4 to be announced will not fix that. Also you're right about the hardware costing about 200$, however I don't think you added in the price of the tablet controller into that. Replacement controllers in Japan are selling for about 172$ atm, and probably will go for 150$ here when they start selling them.

I'll get a Wii U not only when it is cheaper, but when they finally decide put in more memory. Screw 32 GB.

Nintendo expects people to use an external HDD for their digital downloads. I'm sure you can pick up something cheaper in one of those other threads from Canada Computer, NCIX, Memory Express, etc. because a 320 GB Wii U would probably be given a ridiculous price bump.

I think the value of this bundle is quite good. It's like getting a game or a controller for free. Plus ZombiiU is one of the games that shows off the uniqueness of the system, so I think it's a good choice (instead of NSMB). I've been waiting for a better deal before jumping in on the WiiU and I think this one pushes me over the edge to buy it especially since Nintendo has said it does not intend to reduce the price any time soon (I can see a small price reduction in the fall). Does anyone know if RCSS is going to carry this bundle and whether it can be picked up during the no tax weekend for no tax?

Nothing unique about a Wii-U? Nice try. You should take your fanboy trolling elsewhere.
If anything, the Wii-U is TOO unique and the devs have been slow to get games out the door.

From DICE 2013, there were more talks of developers cancelling projects rather than coming up with the new ones. Stop making up ***** here. TOO UNIQUE... ROFL.

I guess it is unique in the sense that a new console released in 2012 is struggling to outperform consoles from 2005.
