How many of you Switch owners also bought a Wii U?

I bought one and it's collecting dust

Own a Switch, only Nintendo system I owned before that was SNES.

I ordered a Xenoblade Wiiu, but i never went to pick it up.

Count me as a non-Wiiu guy.

not me as my last(also my first) Nintendo console was the gamecube. So I would like to see wii/ wii u ports for the console.

You should get some of this Brasso gadget cleaner.

It's even kept dusk off my Xbox One and i've not used that fucker in months.

Why do you care then ?

I got 2

One US and another JP

I think the point the OP is making is that most switch buyers were Wii U owners meaning Nintendo have not really reached out to any new crowd

I actually bought a wii u after i got the switch. I needed to play some smash, zelda wind waker hd, donkey kong, and those mario games i missed out on. Good stuff and the games are cheap right now.

I have bought both, I also bought a PS3 then a PS4

Bought a WiiU after it launched in few months. Played all the major games on it and I had a blast actually and didn't regret buying it like any other Nintendo system.

When Switch came out I sold my WiiU and bought a Switch. So far I'm still playing Zelda but I'm planning to buy other games in the holidays.

Ha. "Gathering data" riiiight...

Your not so subtle jabs at Nintendo arent fooling anyone man. We get it...you dont like them. Great ?

I have a Switch, no Wii U. I bought the Wii U for the ex wife.....she kept it in the split. I think I got the best outcome of that situation.

I don't have a Wii U, but I do have a Switch.

I was wanting a Wii U because I thought the thing would dreamcast and go down to like $100. But that never happened.

Make sure you ask people outside a gaming website for your data, because we are all enthusiasts and will most likely own both.

Gathering data from system wars...okay lol

Sounds like you're trying to validate your suspicion that the Switch is only selling to Wii U owners which will make your results questionable as they will be tainted with confirmation bias.

Not I, the last time I owned a Nintendo console was the N64 which I got it because of Zelda and I bought the switch this time for zelda and mario and the other indie games for the switch.

The plan back in 2012 was to skip the Wii U and buy the next system and expect backwards compatibility with Wii U.

That didn't happen.

I would've bought a Switch by now if it was able to play wii u games. Since it doesn't, I didn't feel the Wii U nor the Switch is strong enough to have either individually. I could've had access to games from different Nintendo consoles, but instead I have neither.

This is why I have this gif at the ready everytime I see an emgesp Nintendo thread:

Never owned a nintendo console before the switch! Iv always owned all xboxs and all playstations expcept for ps2. Its the first time nintendo has made something that appeals to me iv never been that big into mario or zelda but the fact i can play that sorta stuff on the go has made me give the switch a chance and no regrets i absoulty love the console! Only thing that sucks is the ammount of games out on it but they seem to be coming out pretty quickly towards the end of the year.

Aren't you glad you only have to buy 1 Switchy now..OR did you get 2 also.. xP :)

@superbuuman: haha yeah, I'm really glad that they gone and went with region free, BUT if they decide to release a limited edition that has the Switch tablet also illustrated with a design I like, and usually Japan get those, I may get a 2nd one

I got a WiiU for Christmas the year it launched, but only kept it for 2 years. I had Nintendoland, New Super Mario Bros U, Super Mario 3D World, Mario Kart 8, and a handful of third party games. I gave it to my nephew for Christmas 2 years after I opened it for Christmas :P

Last one from Nintendo was a cube. Black bought it for $99 in '04 for resident evil 4.

why do I feel this is bait lol Also, no, I dont buy thrash. I only have switch.
