To clear up a few misunderstandings, I told my mom over and over, explaining to her why not to get the Wii U. She being the non-gamer she is, couldn't comprehend my Xbox 360's controller "buttons and sticks" so she thought she'd get this. (using childhood image brainwashing, Nintendo=automatically good." Because you know, buttons and sticks on a Wii U giant pad with a screen is way less complicated than it's clones. Also the backwards compatability is asinine. I'm never getting rid of m original Wii. It can read Wii discs just fine, but you HAVE to attach the sensor back to one of its ports and use the Wii's controllers. Also, unlike the Wii, it's incapable of reading GameCube games, which all I ever used my Wii for. Along with that the games are total crap. The port of Assassins Creed 3 is just awkward with the controls. For playing the Xbox for so long I'm used to letters being in a certain place, Wii U the letters are the same, sure, but it's in a different spot, so if say I want to choke someone cold, I'm more likely to jump on them or something that'll get me detected. Also, AsCred4 on Xbox is so much more fun. The pamplet my mom got from shameless advertiser brags about the "1080p graphics" and I suppose that's only on TV's and crap because the GamePads the only thing I can use to play because my vision is total crap. Also the library, weather it be a crappy game like Pacmans' ghostly adventure, or a late import like Watch_Dogs, it's just boring. Seriously, Watch_Dogs sold so little on Wii U. Want to know why? It was on 6 other platforms 5 months before it's release. 360,XBONE PS3, PS4, and PC. I'm sick of hearing my Mother getting games and saying "I'll play it, believe me, I want to." She's been like this for a while. 2 years ago she bought her own Wii saying she'd use it, (even though there was nothing wrong with my current Wii, not even memory usage) and according to her, she's used it only 2 times.
