  • Abstract:  Six years ago, almost to the day, I remember sitting on the couch with my then one-year-old son playing Elebits on the recently launched Wii. I thought he'd understand the simple point-and-shoot game. It was sort of a shooter. You walked around a house an...

  • Very quiet and very small, Incredibly unique selection of exclusive games, Great for parties, Family friendly
  • GamePad battery life is abysmal, Very few new games coming in the future, Plays games and nothing else, Requires adapter for Ethernet
  • The Wii U hasn't changed all that much since it launched, but that isn't necessarily a bad thing. The big innovation -- the system's tablet-like GamePad -- didn't set the world on fire the way that the Wii's motion controls did, but that didn't stop t...

  • An included tablet-style GamePad can play games when the TV is in use; Nintendo has a core library of awesome exclusive titles; works with older Wii games and accessories; very kid-friendly. Access to a vault of your childhood classics. Off-TV play is gre
  • Can't play DVDs or Blu-rays, lacks a lot of third-party games available on Xbox or PlayStation, GamePad wireless range and battery life are too short, Wii U and 3DS handheld don't share games
  • The Wii U has shaken off some of its initial growing pains to become a superior kid and family console, with a limited but excellent lineup of exclusive games you won't find anywhere else....

  • If we only look at sales, then yes the Wii U has been a flop so far. Nintendo has only managed to ship 5.86 million Wii U consoles worldwide. Just how bad is that? Well, Sony managed to sell over 4 million PS4 consoles in a month and a half since it launc...

  • Abstract:  Despite the increasing shift to mobile gaming with devices like the PlayStation Vita and Nintendo 3DS XL , consoles are still very popular devices for playing immersive, graphics-intensive games; and that won't change anytime soon as long as the major con...

  • Great second screen experience, TVii shows great promise, HD streaming is flawless, Full 1080p / HDMI support
  • Glossy hardware attracts dust, Massive out-of-box updates required, Sluggish UI navigation, Weak CPU / GPU combo, No support for playing your own videos / photos
  • The Wii U is somewhat difficult to summarize. Whereas prior consoles could be judged almost entirely on their graphical prowess, controller design and list of launch titles, we're at a point now where home consoles are only partially targeted for gaming...

  • unique two screen/“asymmetric” feature allows for individual experiences within the same shared viewing, genuine all ages fun, easy setup, mobile and lightweight GamePad options, large GamePad display, high promise/potential for future features, pre-insta
  • no backwards capability for GameCube games, cannot play DVDs or Blu-ray video discs, a more simple system transfer process, use the same Nintendo DS battery charging cord for GamePad instead of a different one
