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

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...

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
