So I guess I'll support the grave-digging movement just because.

Wow, has it really been a year? Yeah, I guess so. Anyways, no, of course I'm not getting one! What's wrong with you people!! According to my ritualistic and regimented lifestyle, I can't get any game console of any kind until it's at least 5 years old.
That said, my brother gave me his old Wii when he got the WiiU. I feel so technologically advanced!

The corpse is walking, so carry on.

Would not buy until it gets under $100. I'm not compelled by the games and I'd probably only buy it to hack, not play games on.

I got a Wii U months ago in the summer. I like it a lot. It's so much fun to play wii and wii u games on the gamepad and have a movie or tv show playing in the background. I've been having a lot of fun playing Zombi U and Super Mario 3D World.

^ I keep forgetting about Zombie U. I really should pick it up while it's only $15... same thing with Assassin's Creed and Batman. I'm curious to see how different the Wii U versions are compared to the 360/PS3.

Zombi U is really fun and challenging. Your character is as strong as 1-2 regular zombies. It really has you strategize and ration your supplies like a survival horror game. It's a good game for that price. Make sure to get the update for it because the game has game-breaking bugs without it. I'm not sure how the Assassin's Creed and Batman ports are like.

Well, I just tried the Zombie U demo and I have conflicting feelings. I love what they did with character death, as well as the difficulty and somewhat sluggish controls, but... it seems, I don't know, a bit shallow? If the demo and videos of gameplay are anything to go by, it seems more like "go here, do that" than a straight survival game per se. I'm not really a fan of liner gameplay when it comes to scenarios like this, so I dunno.

Yeah, it is really linear that way. The real fun is in survival mode with permanent death and the difficulty in surviving. It would be a better game if it was non-linear.

I might get a Wii U in the future but first I need to catch up with the Wii and try Wii Games I haven't played yet. And PS2 and Nintendo DS Games as well.
