| Re: Wii U There are two, the normal and deluxe. The price difference is $50, so get the deluxe($350). The cheaper one doesn't have enough internal storage and will cause them to have too uninstall games TO install new games. I'm a tech junkie, and while the Wii U is a new system for Nintendo. Tech wise its about the same power as a 360 or PS3. Its great for kids, probably no one else will be interested. Just post anymore questions. |

| Re: Wii U honestly if she is six buy her a Wii. Cheaper and bigger library of games. Wii U seems like a waste to me.

That being said, it should probably be priced at $200, not $350. It's really overpriced for what is inside it. Sales didn't hit expectations, especially with software sales. I expect a price drop well before next fall, when the new Playstation or Xbox will launch. | |

| Re: Wii U I literally watched a grandmother and mom talk them selves out of a Wii U last night at Target. They end up buying a Wii and a DS. The grandmother said "I don't see the value in this at all." I was cracking up inside if a old lady can see a Wii U is not worth it.

My son is 5 and I just bought him a Wii game for his birthday...loves it. I don't see the point of the Wii U console. How's the resolution on the tablet part? It better be as good as the TV for $350.
