I don't understand why Nintendo can't make a DS Player (think GameBoy Player) for the Wii U. It could play DS and 3DS games through the Wii U. The television would act as the top screen and the Wii U Controller would act as the lower screen and touchpad. I think that would be a neat idea and it would get me in the store to buy a Wii U TODAY instead of waiting another year or two for the prices to come down. I'm not familiar enough with the Wii U to know it it has any type of expansion port like the GameCube had for the GameBoy Player to hook up to. But regardless, it would be a cool idea.

I'm not big on buying used for some of the more current gaming systems, especially when they are still available new. It just bugs me that my 30 year old 2600 works just fine and my PS3 has crapped out three times. I just feel a little safer getting something new.
It's funny though, out of the PS4, XBox One and Wii U, the Wii U has the most games that I would imediately want to buy and play. I know the PS4 and XBox One are more powerfull, and in the long run the better systems, but right now, if I had to get one, it woud be the Wii U.

Ps4 for me. Had the wii u since launch, and only played about 3 hrs max on it. Got games still in wrappers, but would rather play ps3 or dreamcast to be honest. That's not to say it's a bad system, just I buy too much . Lol

I'm interested in PS4, but I see no reason to buy one yet.
Wii U is doing good but I have not touched mine in a while, mostly because I've been busy and I don't own that many games for it. 3 currently. There are a few I'm interested in, but meh.
I loved the Wii, It has a smallish solid library, like the N64, There are still some games I want for it.
So far the new gen systems are kinda disappointing for me, Nothing really pops out to me, even on the Wii U. I love the game pad, I just wish it was used more.
The 3DS on the other hand (No pun intended) I'm loving, and I only own one game. ;D There are a lot I want to get and the street pass stuff is cool.
Vita is . . . a thing. It has stuff I think, Sony is doing a terrible job marketing it, even worse than the Wii U, I know nothing about it that would make me want one and never hear about it.
