yeah I will get that new mario game, seen it tons of youtube videos.

and nintendo still feel youtube videos dont sell games, idiots.

my only concern is how many good wii-u games is there? the majority of games that I want are wii games and I think I will need to buy a wii controller to play them, not sure.

At least the system plays the Wii games unlike both the Xbox One and Playstation 4,my only gripe with the system is how it uses both the Tablet sized controller and the Television to function in many if not all of there games.

My problem is Eyesite is not what it used to be and i use a pair of Prescription reading glasses for close up stuff and distance glasses for Television viewing driving ect.

So now it looks like i need to go down the Bifocals route because when the game requests you use the tablet Mr Magoo here is pulling them funny Squinting type faces and I'm not going to keep swapping from reading glasses to distance glasses every couple of minutes.

it was actually something i mentioned when the console got released 13 months ago,seems Nintendo don't really care about the older people like me and think everybody is about 13 with 20/20 vision which sadly i haven't had for the past 10 years.

Watch the Magoo jokes and old age jibes flood in once Nelly and Spook read this thread

Its quite laughable really to think of the canning i gave the Nintendo Wii and there new console the Wii U,last night a had a 5 hour straight gaming session playing just the Zelda remake and had a wonderful time and i generally felt great and entertained while playing it.

In fact i have actually played the Wii U twice as long as the Playstation 4 and i have only had it 2 days,had a hour with Pikmin 3 and that is drop dead gorgeous to look at and play,Zombi u and Mario 3D still in wrappers and I'm even considering that game The Wonderful 101 from Platinum games .

All this system needs is a totally new Zelda game which is coming and get Retro developers back and give us a Metroid and we have a great little gaming system.

And Nintendo need to concentrate on more Adult type games and lets leave the Dance,keep fit stuff alone for a while?

yeah what you seeing is that the wii-u (a) has BC which is never a bad thing and that (b) its been ni the market longer so has better/more games.

super mario 3d world is the new game right?

Yes mate Super Mario 3D is the new one on the Wii U....check out the reviews they are outstanding,check out the videos on YouTube for a better insight.

as I said already seen the vids, reviewtechusa had it in the background on a few videos plus another I subscribe to has been playing it also.

I will wait a short time before buying it tho. Already got 4 games on order, plus the zelda plus xenoblade chronicles which I already own.

Sunday delivery?!!?

That's interesting you have played the Wii U longer than the PS4. Just shows it all down to the games - buy the console for the games you want. Nintendo has nothing I really want but I agree with you I would like them to concentrate on more adult games and become a serious contender with the PS4 and XB1. I think they need to stop with their casual/kiddie focus as that is covered by tablet games these days unlike in the Wii days, if they don't get that they will be dead.

I seriously believe Nintendo to even release a new console in the next 18 months which will be aimed at the older gamers and compete against the likes of Sony and Microsoft.

yep I guess due to the time of year they doing sunday deliveries for next day orders.

Just got some more emails now telling me they coming today to make sure I am in.
