Wii u w/ Mario kart is a lot of fun especially for my 6 year old who is just starting with gaming. Nintendo games are a lot fun for multiple players so the whole family and friends can join. Young and old will enjoy.

The system was easy for the parents to install and the children just love the games. You may have to watch how much they play because it is so much fun. I would recommend for any grandparent for their grandchildren!

This system is perfect for entertaining! I have co workers and friends over at my place for drinks often and Drunken Mario Cart is Great! Gets everyone involved and its just a blast. Same thing with Smash Brothers.

After playing the original wii for years I was hesitant to buy this system, but the new system is even better! Really love the new handheld controller, the new Mii creator & the variety of games already available!

I held out for a long time to get a Wii U but the Mario Kart Bundle finally made me want to make the move. Got to relive some Nintendo classics and most of the original Wii controllers work fine on the new console

I got this for my son as a Christmas gift. He still uses it and he loves it. This was a discounted open box item which is always my preference. I've never had a problem with an open box item.

The controls are much easier for my kids (ages 5 & 3) to handle than on the Nintendo Wii. They love the Mario Kart 8 that came with this system! I love the hand-held screen--easy to use and easy to navigate.

My son has an Xbox one, but has been asking for a Wii U for some time. We bought this as a christmas purchase because it had the mario kart bundle. The updated high def graphics are great, overall very happy!

Just purchased this for our daughter. She really likes the touchscreen controller. She's also really excited about all that Lego Dimension/Amiiba/Skylander shtuff. Wife and I will probably tackle Donkey Kong when the kid's asleep

My daughter talked me into this while we were looking for movies. We didn't have cable or internet yet. She'd used a Wii U at a friend's house so we bought it. I use it as much as she does! (I am over 50.)

We purchased this for our kids and they absolutely love it, especially the Infinity game we got to go along with it. It was easy to set up and we look forward to purchasing more games to go along with it.

My kids received the WII U for Christmas. The only reason we bought it was because they were dying to play splatoon. It's fun for all the kids in the house and adults too. We bought actual controllers to go with it and the console has exceeded my expectations. The kids have logged more hours then I thought they would. Definitely worth the money.

This is a great console for children between 5-10 years old. There are lots of sports games and games that will keep you moving instead of sitting down.

My family is very happy with this product. A lot of the games are very simple. My kids are young, so this works well for them, and my wife and I like playing the old school Nintendo games from the eshop.

Love the new Mario kart game, we actually have always been a fan of Mario kart, and love the newer style controllers. Great console with a lot of kid friendly games that the other consoles don't offer.

I'm an XBOX fan and the last Nintendo console I own is a Nintendo 64, but I bought this for my wife so we can play together and it has been really fun, we've both enjoyed it, Mario kart was one of my favorite games in the N64 so it is great playing it again with all new graffics. This bundle is also a great deal, because it includes some extra characters and vehicles and circuits also.
Totally worth it, specially for the price, just remember to buy your extra controller.
