    A great gaming system for Nintendo fans. Not only does it have amazing new games for WiiU, it's easy to transfer your entire Wii library.

    My two girls 6 and 9 years old LOVE this! So much FUN for them. At first I thought it was a "Boys thing" and they wouldn't be interested. I was WRONG! They take turns and cheer each other on. I love seeing them do fun things together. It's awesome and the graphics are AMAZING! I can't wait to try other games! This was a great Christmas gift!!

    The wii U is a much better gaming system for the younger kids. We got this for our nieces and nephew for christmas and they love it. It's a much better deal if you get the sysem that comes with a game and mario kart is one that they can play together.

    My son loves playing Mario 3D World with mommy and daddy, and cousins of course. Mommy's favorite games are Legend of Zelda games which they have almost the entire collection remade for Wii U. I'm just a die hard Mario fan, all things in marioation, I mean moderation. Nintendo is stopping production soon, or so I've heard. Get one while you can!

    My kids are ages 7 and 8 so the child friendly content is a plus. Not so much blood and guts violence or adult content, just plain fun.

    Wii U is an upgraded version of the Wii that includes a gamepad and HD. The gamepad is cumbersome and the touch screen display is often used to interact with system and game settings and navigation more than game play. You should consider purchasing a Wii U Pro Controller and/or a Wii Remote Plus (and nunchuk) to use instead of the gamepad and be sure to check game compatibility. The console uses optical discs for game play and allows for digital downloads. Be aware that the Wii U has a limited amount of memory and digital downloads will take up a lot of space. Also, you can trade-in games on a physical disc not digital downloads. Wii U has impressive HD; a first for a Nintendo console. Wii U is adequate for most gamers and game playing environments. However, booting, loading, and processing times seemed slow and sluggish on occasion. Overall, the Wii U delivers on fun, the hallmark of Nintendo.

    I love the console and games. It is user friendly and fun. I actually enjoyed the game that came with it much more than expected. Only complaint is the short battery life of the controller. It doesn't last long before you have to charge it.

    Bought this for my kids who are ages 4 and 11. We bought it with Mario Kart 8 and Mario Maker. The kids love it so much, I have to turn the console off in order to get then to do something else. Easy set up. My 4 year old has no problem using it. You can play with the tablet that's included even if the TV is off. Graphics are great!
