I've heard that zombiu isn't too good! On a scale of 1-10, how would you rank it?I have it and love what it can do. It is not just the games (zombie U is great) but also what else it can do. My favorite being the fact that the game pad functions as a TV remote so if I lose my Time Warner cable remote again I'm not lost. The game pad will allow you to change channels and adjust volume. Also you can watch Netflix either on the pad or on the TV all controlled by the pad. I imagine this will quickly become out most used system.

I don't agree. If Nintendo was going for an entertainment system, first off they would have added Blu-ray and DVD support. They would have also added a much better marketplace geared around movies, music, TV... I really believe that Nintendos main focus is on the game side of things and as it should be. If they dont focus on games, in about a year they will be in a world of hurt when the new Xbox and PlayStation hit. In my opinion the wii u has a lot going against it but Nintendo has 1 huge plus, iconic franchises. That is what they need to leverage and focus on, not catering to the entertainment crowd. You also cant forget the 2nd party support. Without some big time exclusives of the popular franchises, you can kiss your market share goodbye once all the systems are out.I think people don't realize Nintendo isn't making this just a game system it is an entertainment system.
Thanks! I'm interested in buying one but would like to know what I'm getting beforehand.No and no

I don't remember a system that released for the holidays that was this accessible. Its hard to say if it is the Wii U just isn't that popular or Nintendo over manufactured this time. Either way its not a great start. The tablet does seem a bit awkward to hold. It could have been designed to fit your hands a lot better. Like any new control it will take a bit to get used to.My Wii U is currently under the tree, I hope this is a hit for us because no one asked for it. Our current Wii is a little run down, so I bought into the hype that Wii U's were going to be scarce this holiday, but they're available everywhere so I feel a little duped. I'm also not too thrilled about the huge tablet remote - I just hope no one argues for it.
I have to say that it just not that popular. When the original Wii came out everyone went bat crap crazy over it because the motion controls were new, innovative and inviting to the non-gamer. The Wii-U arrived with a thud simply because there was no real innovation.I don't remember a system that released for the holidays that was this accessible.

Very true. The only real chance they have (in my eyes) is Nintendos BIG DOGS (zelda, metroid, donkey kong...) But even then, as you say, too little too late.Quite honestly, the only people I know that were clamoring to get a Wii U were the hard core Nintendo fans. Couple this with the very high probability that the next PS and Xbox will be out in 12 months, the Wii U was just too little too late.
