Depends on the price: $199 - Day one $249 - Maybe day one, depending on compelling launch software/pack in $299 - Wait and see, but probably. $349+ - Not likely
[QUOTE="Some-Mist"]I really want pikmin 3 and mikami's new game, but there's not enough reason for me (yet) to buy one. I selected "I don't know".nintendoboy16
Shinji Mikami isn't making anything for Wii U. Hideki Kamiya is.errr thanks for correcting me. That's what I meant.
I'm not interested in a single game that has been announced for the system. I'll jump on the band wagon whenever the next Zelda or Metroid shows up though.

For Metroid, prepare for a LONG wait (it may be N64 all over again for that series).
No, I will not buy this crap! It will not have any gray FPS/TPS violent game at launch And I hate innovation and uniqueness so screw you Nintendo. I want the same old drivel i saw this gen but with super realisticular graphix!!!1! PS4/Next box FTW!!!!!
Man I bet MS and Sony would kill to have rabid fans like Nintendo, buying the console day one with barely any reason other then it being a Nintendo system. MS especially, Sony already learn't that they couldn't get away with it when they launched the PS3 ( although the price probably did a lot of the damage there).
Anyway I definitely won't be buying one at launch and barring any big change in Nintys philosophy I probably won't be buying one at all. MS and Sony will have to work for their purchase a little less because I trust them more( although MS has sucked a bit for the past ywo years or so).

The same guarantee you have that Nintendo will deliver something good is that M$ and Sony will cause problems for consumers. It is not the fanbase, it's the company.
The biggest sellingpoint (besides Nintendos core franchises) is asymmetric local multiplayer. I have zero interest in that. The new controller could have some fun ises, but ultimately I think it will be annoying in fast paced action sequences. So overall I don't see enough to buy it.

you could always use the pro controller, local play is leagues better then online play online play has way too many problems still
I'll pass initially unless I have some serious money to burn, considering there's like nothing coming out the rest of the year that's a possibility, but my sensible side says since the line-up will basically be what will already be available on the Xbox 360 and PS3 (both which I already have), then there's no real point for the time being. Besides, if Nintendo does get around to releasing any new games they'll just be next gen reiterations of games they do every gen like Mario Kart, Smash Bros, Mario Sunshine/Galaxy, Mario Tennis, Strikers, Mario Golf, it worked with the Wii because nearly nobody had a GameCube but will it work now that the Wii was so popular? anyhow... about the only thing that will be really new will be another Zelda or Metroid game and Nintendo already showed their letting that go into the crapper, if Skyward Sword or Other M are any indicator.

Yeah but if I don't use the new controller it makes little sense to get wiiu. All consoles have local mp. What wiiu has that the others dont is asymmetric mp. And like I said it doesnt appeal to me.

i dont agree its alla bout the game bruh i get a system for the games not the controller. its a cool controller and im curious to see what people do with it, but ill be using the pro often or w.e.
idk what symmetric mp is but i do like local better then co-op
Pretty much a no brainer for me since the last Nintendo console I purchased was a Gamecube. If Nintendo focused more on new, interesting IP's for gamers 21 and up instead of goofy controllers, I might consider picking one up.
until i see more than 1 platforming game the answer is no.

And knowing Nintendo, you most likely will. Not just from Mario, but since the Donkey Kong series got rebooted I have a good feeling that will have more platformers to come. Also not forgetting Kirby, who had two platformers on the Wii (Epic Yarn and Return to Dreamland).
Even on the third party front, there's no doubt SEGA's blue hedgehog will be there as it is one of the very few third party series that fares well on Nintendo consoles.

of the ones u lsited kirby was the only one i could stand playing sonic was such utter trash like omg. i found the secret rings new for 99cents in a reduced bin in a grocery once. a mfing grocery, they dont even sell games all that often and even they smelled the sh!t reeking in the case :P
mario bros wii wuz okay and Dk was kind of dry for a dk game. im waiting on kirby due to his realtive consistency s a franchise of medium high - high quality of presentation and reception and 3rd party platformers. 1st parties are basically being held up by the supertuff pinkpuff atm

This brings up an interesting point for me. You see, I hate Nintendo consoles. I think their libraries are absolute trash compared to the competition. I have no plans on getting a Wii U and I'm ok with missing out on the good Nintendo franchises like Mario and Zelda. But....I'm not so sure I'd be able to stand by and watch while a good Sonic game is exclusive to Wii U. I'm not gonna lie. If a Sonic game was exclusive to Wii U and looked good, I'd probably suck it up and buy a Wii U for Sonic.

That is WAY f***ing better than the storybook games (Secret Rings and Black Knight).

Not sure yet i am waiting to see something good,launch line up,something that spark the go get it rush... Until now it hasn't happen also i want to know the price,if the wii was $250 and was basically a re pack gamecube with motion,i wonder how much this one will cost with a touch screen table for playing.
The WiiU looks interesting.. I wont be getting one though. I already own too many systems and don't have enough time to play games. I'll be keeping an eye on the WiiU but I wont be buying one unless it totally blows me away.
Im not going to say never because Twilight Princess, Super Mario Galaxy series, and MEtroid Trilogy were some of the best games I have ever played. But then there is recycled **** like New Super Mario Bros Wii, both Kirby games, Brawl, Mario Kart Wii (abomination), and other Nintendo half asses efforts that you have to sift through to get to the real meat.
In this day and age where other companies are doing what Nintendo does (except for the in the 3D platformer department) but better, its hard to give Nintendo my money when their standards are so low.

What the hell was so recycled about Epic Yarn and Return to Dreamland?
Wii U is crap and Nintendo games are not to my taste.
However as an impartial observer I do endorse the 3DS, it's a good product if you are in the market for something portable or if you just enjoy Nintendo IP's.

What the hell was so recycled about Epic Yarn and Return to Dreamland? If you've played one Nintendo game, you've played them all. Its the same **** with a different coat of paint. I've only been a Nintendo fan for this past generation, and I am already getting tired of their rehashes.
It depends upon the price, and the games that are available. The little bit I've seen of the Wii-u looks good, but Nintendo is not saying much about it.
