Wii U and it's games are already going up in price!?! In 10 years when the Wii U hits it's nostalgia boom like the GameCube and DreamCast are now, It will be loved a lot more and games like The Wonderful 101 will be $200 like how Chibi-Robo on the GameCube is today.




Oh and the fact that this video has 217 likes and only 2 dislikes PROVES that the Wii U is finally starting to get the love it DESERVES (I liked).

[kumatorahaltmanndreemurr]

Can I just say that you guys' videos feel so cozy and safe. It feels like I'm hanging out with friends just chatting about games like when I was a kid :)

[dylanbrady]

TLDR: sell your Wii U tablet in 10 years for a good dollar

[indianatrekker]

I love seeing the Wii U getting some love. Such an underrated system, just thanks to its backward compatibility to the Wii. I'm playing mine right now, and so glad I never got rid of mine.

You forgot to mention the best part about the Wii U:



Its modding capabilities! With homebrew you can do stuff like add third party controllers, add free games and even use it as an emulation device for consoles such as gamecube and SNES

Btw great vid!

[giankosokataktitis]

I know im late but I just want to say something, the reason why Wii U failed, is the name. Many people were confused because they thought it was an accessorie for a wii, could have named it a Wii 2. the second reason it failed, are the ads. Could have done better with those. And the parents who always said "you already have a wii" lol. Other than that wiiu is a underrated console.

The wiiu never failed in my heart.

[kevinp]

The other thing is that its versatility as an emulator is far reaching with the HDMI port. You can play every game from every console all the way up to the Wii U and with the SD port, an infinite amount of them. I think everyone is getting aware of this and the prices went from 60-80 bucks to 130+ now. All of its games went up in value too

[PKInTheUniverse]

I didn’t even realize I wasn’t subscribed to this channel. I love the WiiU . I do play my switch, but the WiiU is really special to me. My son and I love games like Nintendoland, Yoshi’s woolly world, Super Mario 3-D world etc. People Who don’t have a Wii U do not know what they’re missing. I found so many amazing people on Twitter Who love the WiiU as much as I do. In my most recent video I talked about a really amazing deal I got on some Wii U games recently. I think it’s my one of my favorite Nintendo consoles of all time. People also forget it is the last true Nintendo home console, considering the switch is a hybrid. That cheesecake stuff sounds great! Great job with this video guys!

[TheMan]

I got my wii u in may 2019 and i love it

[Emceemur]

You know I’ve been doing “WiiUvolution” vids this year. It’s a movement. And people need to get behind it. Do I smell a collabo opportunity, maybe? That Axiom set tho! Sexy vinyl. I can prove on paper that any real gamer needs a Wii U. If this video isn’t enough, and it totally should be. You outdid yourself on this one!

[David_JA_Noble]

Guys, this is the best Wii U review on the net. Well done. Just purchased a Wii U with 500gb hard drive and 60 games. Our main console has been a wii (with about 100 games) nothing beats its multiplayer experience (with 4 Wii controllers. Of course the Wii U can also link up with the brilliant Wii controllers. This will be second time I try out Wii U, but I think I better understand it now. This new set up cost me about $200, so much better value than switch ... my kids desperate for Mario karts 8, as they know the Wii version back to front (need new challenge).

[ChrisJamesT]

Great video guys! I was just playing mine this last weekend. I had bad memories with the Wii U only because my Zelda one was stolen, But I have it now and it’s been fun. I don’t mind double collecting if on switch and Wii U. I just get games either for myself that I want to play later for for the boys when they get older.

[ThatOneGuyMatt]

Also too in the U store there are alot of gameboy advanced games on there. Like metroid zero missions

[jonmccown]

Another Banger Boyz. Long time listener, and Huge Fan. Kudos for the great production and Top shelf comments.

[CFEntertainment]

You guys made me get into wii u! Just bought a sealed copy of Devils Third for 50 bucks. Thanks so much for such a really wholesome channel!

[DoYouNerd]

Hey, that's a cool Freddy figure! I really liked playing games on the WiiU that really utilized the gamepad, using it as your inventory or as a map is such a great and novel feature. Second Dr. Luigi--very well done. Loved the AVGN game! Definitely agree on the collectibility on the WiiU. That gamepad always, always freaks me out--I always hope that maybe even a 3rd party option will come out someday as a backup.
Love the Yoshi game--of course Lady Laci loves even MORE the yarn Yoshi Amiibo set.
BTW--I feel like you've only recently been adding in that first beer sip for the initial reaction and I am really digging that.

[brandonnel]

I still have my black WiiU along with its box and everything. Playing Mariokart 8 with friends using the wiiU is way better than the switch in my opinion simply because of the wide range of controllers it supports. I still use the console a ton, it's definitely one of my favorites.

[kylieguillot]

Hey gaming off the grid I’m jaxon and great video and cheers to my favourite YouTube channel ever see you on the next live Stream

[craig]

Just binge watched the entire GOTG content over lockdown. Honestly you guys are going to be one of the biggest gaming content creators one day. Much better than MJR in my opinion. Also how did you guys get those N64 artwork and cases? Such a cool idea.

[CaptainFrugalReviews]

Poor marketing really hurt this overlooked system, I don't think most people knew what it even was. I know I had no idea what it was at launch. The hard thing to get is the controller, you have to have it and it is hard to get a backup! Many people love having a modded Wii U The Wii U is also has HDMI making it a great way to play Wii games on TV's with HDMI and record game footage. Grab the games now while they are cheap.
