HIGHLY recommend picking up Super Mario Galaxy 1 and Super Mario Galaxy 2. The first one is the best Mario game ever made IMO.
Super Mario Galaxy was one of my favorite games from last gen, never bought 2 though, I should
Never got around to buying Skyward Sword either
One of my favorite Wii games was Mario Strikers Charged. Probably the best arcade soccer game I have ever played, hope they make one for the Wii U

You can get a refurbished one from Nintendo for 200 bucks. It's the deluxe one. I got one and the thing looked brand new, not a scratch or anything on it.

Isn't there like fifty dollars difference still?
Don't forget if you get MK8 you can download either Wind Waker HD, Pikmin 3, and some other games I can't remember for free after you register it.

Mario Kart commercials keep making me want to buy this. IDK. I probably won't but I will think about it for a long time.

I want it, but not because of MK. Maybe I haven't watched enough footage of it, but I can't fathom it being different enough to make me THAT interested in that series again.

Indeed.
I kind of want a Pro controller too.
hmm
glad to hear the refurbs are legit though.

Just got done dlling updates on mine. I got one of the refurbs. I am so confused on what controller/wiimote to get to play the wii games. There are tons of options.

The other consoles are good only if you want to play some generic mainstream fps titles. And you're a pc gamer so you'll have access to most of them anyway.
This.
If you have a top line PC there's almost no use for another console. I still may, MAY get X1 or PS4 down the line, after a couple of years and some price drops. Until then, WiiU/PC.

Also stout, if you want other free stuff there are two programs to be a part of (2...it's kind of annoying, but whatever)
Club Nintendo
Rack up coins by registering games and products, and take survey's. Get coins, download free eShop games that change every month.
And:
Deluxe Promotion
Sort of the same thing. Every time you DOWNLOAD an eShop title you get points. So one program actually feeds the other. (Downloading the Free Game from above will give you points here)
The DDP will even even count your MK8 Free Game download... so you'll get $6 to spend on the eShop. Uhh Free.

Is it sad that I most pumped about playing some games on the shitter?
Posted on 5/28/14 at 4:01 pm to Freauxzen
I LOVE Club Nintendo. Every time I buy a game, console or any kind of nintendo product I register it and give them feedback on it. Nintendo is great about rewarding their customers. That's why they will always have my business.

My wife will not be happy about this gamepad sitting on the coffee table though.
Posted on 5/28/14 at 4:12 pm to flyAU
I think it looks pretty good sitting on mine.
Also you can turn the gamepad into a remote for the TV

I want very much to buy the MK8 bundle I think I saw at gamestop. I figure I can just trade in my old Wii + 360 + ps3 and basically get the WiiU for free. I just have to sell the idea to the wife!
