It might be fun to follow up this video with THIRD PARTY GAMES for Wii U, like Batman:Arkham City-Armored Edition, Deus Ex Human Revolution: Director's Cut, Sonic & All-Stars Racing Transformed, etc. What do you think?

This is one of the best gaming channels on YouTube. They are not stuck up and are just real people that are passionate about games.

When he chuckled when he said he didn't have anyone to play multiplayer games with. I felt that.

Nice to see the Wii U getting love
Been there since 2013, most underrated console since the Dreamcast.

Can’t believe I just recently discovered your channel. Amazing content. Love the passion and energy you and your co-hosts show for video games. Keep it up!!

Metal Jesus Rocks is like a tv show you'd see on public television and I love it

Here a few tip for Wii U collectors:
- First print of BotW has kind of a misprint, fixed on the second print. Back of the game show you can use a wii mote to play the game, and this is false.
- If I were you I would buy Darksiders Warmastered. One of the last Wii U games, with a lovely "false advertisement" sentence in the back, claiming that the Wii U version runs at 60 fps (and it runs at 30)
- If you can find the Russian Special Edition of Darksiders 2, consider yourself lucky. It's a freakin' unicorn.
- If you can buy the WindWaker console bundle, buy it. The only wii u special edition console released.
- Get yourself a copy of Fatal Frame
- Spiderman was removed from the e-shop. Physical price will probably go up.
- Fast Racing Neo could be rare, EU only.
- Scribblenauts Unmasked was released in the US and Australia, for European collectors (as myself), this is the only not released in Europe that can be played on European consoles.
- Germany has a MK8 steelbok, Rayman Legends Steelbook, a Monster Hunter very rare version (with an ugly decal), and a lovely cardboard sleeve with cat mario (3d World) with an actual fluffy belly.
- Sonic Lost World normal edition is more rare than the special edition (Deadly Six)
- Not an official game, but GAME sold in the UK a box with a download code and some collectibles (poster and pokeballs) for the game Pokemon Rumble U

I really love your channel. The guests you have on create some good variety in opinions, as well as personality. And, most importantly, this show is 100% sincere. Keep on doing what you're doing, it's great!

[MetalJesusRocks]

Thanks to Kelsey for helping me with this video. You ROCK! :)

This is my 3rd time visiting this video. Still building up my Wii U collection here and there since 2016! Love your reviews :)

[bsg]

Absolutely love the Wii U! This console was in such high demand in my household, I got a 2nd. I had so many games for it that I decided to go for a full collection.

There's actually a hidden option to turn off hard drive idling. Go into Data Management, hold down on the d-pad, +, and -, and the option to disable hard drive sleep will show up. Works wonders and lets you use flash drives as external memory.

I just now got my Wii U (Wind Waker 32gb) w/ Smash, Splatoon, Shovel Knight, 3D World, Mario Maker, Nintendoland, and Tropical Freeze for only 70 bucks!

[Negrodomaus]

Just bought a Wii U tonight! Can't wait!

[ericklein]

I appreciate the conversational approach to this video. I feel like I’m eavesdropping on a discussion between friends as opposed to being told that I’m a noob and I need to listen to the “experts”. I’m learning and adding items to my wish list without being beaten over the head with content. Thanks!

[SteelAngelVikki]

Zombi U utilised the game pad in such a terrifying way. But it was good fun to watch someone else play!

[Toastytop]

Thank you guys for showing some love to the WiiU, I made the decision to buy a WiiU when the Switch came out because I never got around to trying it before and I have been insanely impressed by nearly every game on the system, soooo many great games I'm going to be enjoying that library and the Wii Library for years to come!

The best thing about the Wii U is the fact you don’t have to use the tv screen to play. My son will be playing WiiU while I’m playing PS3 at the same time.

[TheZeofobicChannel]

I have seen you on the Internet for yours video and I'm getting a wii U tommorrow so thanks for the Guide. And a great upload and channel. Congrats
