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 a Nintendo Wii U! What else is there to say? Reliable fun family entertainment with Mario and friends.

    I just wish it was compatible to gamecube controllers as well as the gamecube games like the original Wii.

    Wii U doesn't have as many games as other systems, and that's OK. I bought it for Mario Kart and Netflix

    I have only had this system for a few days but already I am glad for purchasing it. If you had a Wii and love Nintendo brand games then this is a must.

    Got this for my kids as a Christmas gift. The one complaint I have about the unit is the fact that right out of the box, the system requires a software update. Seems a little strange that a brand new device would require an update prior to using it the first time. This happened for both Mario Kart 8 and for Mario 3D Land. Its difficult to tell kids they have to continue to wait to play with something after they have already spent their paticience on waiting for me to hook up the device initially. Other than that, they appear to be enjoying the system thus far.
