Customers are saying

Customers enjoy the many games, especially those appealing to a wide range of players, and find the gamepad intuitive and easy to use. The system's ease of use and fun factor are also frequently praised, along with its price point. However, some customers point to the battery life of the gamepad and the lack of third-party game support as shortcomings.

    It's great for first party games that Nintendo has to offer. On the other hand, third party games are quite a mess on this, but its very nice.

    We like the Wii U but we do wish that the system was better. We played enough Mario Kart & Zelda to make the system worth it.

    Great system, not enough games though. If you like Mario then you'll be happy. Also cool to play the older console games through the Wii store.

    The console came with two games that kept my son busy the entire day. Both games allow up to 4 players. It was easy to set up and program. I was even able to link this console with his Nintendo 3DS

    Not much improvement except faster CPU. However, it can play the old Wii games and use the Wii accessories. Overall, just like an upgraded Wii.

    Good gaming system; issues connecting to Internet

    Overall, a good gaming system. Fun for all members of the family. This review would have been 4 stars, but the WiiU was difficult to connect to the Internet. Had to do some research on how to get the WiiU connected to the Internet. Apparently, this is a well known problem and Nintendo can't seem to get it fixed for the consumers. The solution is out on the Internet, but a customer shouldn't have to resort to that....so less than 4 stars.

    Wii U is an excellent console, my only gripe is that it does not play Blu-Ray discs. Other than that, it is exactly what one would expect.

    I needed to buy more than was included in the box. I had wished it was all there. It was a gift and my son had to wait to start playing it.

    Good console, I just don't like how slow the Wii U main menu is. I bought it cause I want to play Super Smash Bros. Wii U and Bayonetta 2.

    If you enjoyed the Wii the Wii U is better. At first wasn't sure if would like the large touchscreen controller but feels very natural in hand. Lot of fun games and good for the casual gamer.

    My kids love this system and they really love this game. It's a big upgrade from the older version of Super Smash Brothers and we're excited to incorporate the new figures with the game, too.

    A lack of variety in games hurts the Wii U somewhat, but the games it does have provide a fun experience typical with Nintendo products.
