No games ? All Wii games work on Wii U, giving it a bigger library than PS4/Xbone for years to come!

Who honestly cares which console some random on the internet prefers?

Wii U will be dead in 12 months, but has far better exclusives. PS4/XBO won't be dead in 12 months, but neither have such great exclusives, far better multi-plat, clearly.

But, stop hating on others, buy the console you prefer and play the games, why can't we all just get along? :wink:

That is the same as the Walsall one as stock change regularly...went before Christmas and dropped lucky to get a 2TB Seagate external portable HD which I knew could be cracked open and drive used in the PS4 for £40.

As for people dissing this deal, ridiculous.

I picked up (not at Walsall Clearance Bargains) just under two years ago the Wii U Mario & Luigi pack from Argos Clearance on eBay for £170, a steal of a price at the time, and again marked up as 'refurb', came as a managers clearance stickered item, box a little bit dinged up, contents all mint and sealed.

As for those criticising the Wii U...I own both a PS4 as mentioned and a Wii U and owning both over the past two years I have had far more exclusive games for the Wii U whilst the PS4 slowly picks up the pace.

Not everyone can get every deal, so based on your logic, the site should just close.

Woah.

mario and luigi game goes for 50 on Ebay that makes one cheap wii u, im trying get hold of it but not paying 50 lol

Wish I had picked one up myself looking back, but was in a rush trying to get hold of an Apple TV 3 so didn't think too much into it!

I'll bite when they are under £100...too much for a dead machine with no games..

:wink:

awesome price...if you can find one.

Don't say that or it'll trigger a fanboy into posting how great the Wii U is as well as a list of games.

You are such a contradictory person, saying things like that and yet posting the most WiiU game deals of anyone I 'know' on here.

these argos clearance deals should be expired theres like 2 stores in the whole of the uk pointless deal

where are the 4 stores?

Don't say that or it'll trigger a Wii U hater to come on here childishly calling anyone who disagrees with his view of the Wii U a 'fanboy'!

Iv got a wii u and played about 4 times at 20 min each. Maybe got a long library of games most at a premium price unless u get lucky but by christ it gets boring ur so limited to what u can do on the console itself. Plus if u wanna play the wii games u need to attach the wii u to the TV have the hassle of the sensor bar then added stress off the wii remotes then the nunchuck defeats the purpose off the wii u if u ask me. That's why most my games are sealed and not played more of an ornament. :smile:

Calling people Fanboys TUT TUT, just coz this machine is off to retirement doesn't make it a bad machine, I find myself explaining myself again oh dear

i agree, if you have patience and persistence you will get one for less than £50.

Damn, would love to pick one of these up at that price!

no games you say? How many games is there overall in the Wii U game library do you know?

Jesus, that was quick, I see what you mean.

Is this a 'proper' refurb, or one thats just been chucked in some brown box without having crumbs and hairs removed?

Lol here they come..

I don't hate you, son. You're just not as I had hoped for. >:

I can confirm there are no Wii U games. Source: https://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/List_of_Wii_U_software

"As of January 29, 2016, there are 675 games on this list.
Exclusive = 203 (150 at retail, 53 download-only)
Console exclusive = 164 (141 at retail, 23 download-only)
Multiplatform = 303 (182 at retail, 120 download-only, 1 Region)"

I can also confirm the Wii U is "dead". (Some genocidal Nintendo hating XBOX/PS fanboys told me so on HUKD).

That is the same as the Walsall one as stock change regularly...went before Christmas and dropped lucky to get a 2TB Seagate external portable HD which I knew could be cracked open and drive used in the PS4 for £40.

if you've only played it 4 times I'd suggest you sell it and get back some of your outlay.

Mario Kart 8 is the schizzle :wink:

...of which I make 351 are still TBA, unreleased or scheduled.
Not counting the fact that Monster Hunter has 6 entries either.

Check a retailer, see what games are good enough to get physical copies.

I have an xbox one, ps4 and wii u. The xbox one rarely gets turned on, the ps4 gets a reasonable amount of use, but the wii u gets more use than the other 2 together. There may not be 30 games a month being released for the wii u, but the quality of the games is very good on the whole, in my opinion.

​The whole thing about the wii u was that u could play off tv but if u wanna play the wii games is more hassle why not just keep the wii if that was the case for me the biggest feature over the wii was that u could play on the game pad. As for gaming not for me well sorry but I preferred my nes to the wii u. That's proper retro gaming can't beat it. :smiley:

perfect as 2nd Wii u for Pokken

none in corby store :disappointed:

But how many of them are actually good games worth owning? Entirely different question. Still, if you like games like Barbie's Dreamhouse Party, Monster High 13 Wishes, Funky Barn and so on.. more power to ya.

Went in this afternoon and not such a great deal. Staff confirmed that none of the wii u deals have games with them. They are consoles only for £139 in their original box.

Still cheap but not as good as it looked.

Serious questions. How many games are worth owning on the PS4? How many games are worth owning on the Xbox One? How many games are worth owning on the Wii U? I think you'll find the numbers are pretty similar and the Wii U titles are more diverse.

I've had a PS4 since last summer and I've got DriveClub, Project Cars, The Last of Us, Uncharted Collection, Tomb Raider DE, Metal Gear Solid 5, Mad Max, Batman Arkham Knight, Little Big Planet and Tearaway Unfolded. There's also some great Indie games available on PS4 - I thoroughly enjoyed Journey. I like the PS4 AND the Wii U and see no benefit in all the bickering.

Agreed. I was just pointing out there are as many titles worth owning a Wii U for as there are for the Xbox and PS4 and if anything the Wii U titles cover more genres (which I personally like, I understand some people like to stick with similar games).

Sorry, I wasn't accusing you of bickering, but generally a lot of that goes on within these pages :-)

I cannot say I was much of a fan of the original Wii, that was far more an example of quantity over quality due to the novelty aspect of shaking the Wii-mote and it cross marketed from everyone from grannies to gamers, I personally feel the Wii U falls less into this trap.

Comparing it to my PS4, both of which I have owned for around the same time period I would say there are more quality exclusive titles on the Wii U, which unsurprisingly (at least to me) is one of the reasons I bought it as a multi console owner.

I cannot say personally I would ever want any Nintendo console either now or historically as my one go to option due to the fact I generally only play Nintendo exclusive titles on them, but I have had more exclusives and use out of my Wii U than my PS4 over the same time period for sure.

Captain Toad Treasure Tracker, Yoshi's Woolly World, Lego City Undercover, Super Mario 3D World, Bayonetta 2, New Super Mario Bros U, Mario Kart 8, Nintendoland, Zombi U (A 3 year exclusive), Donkey Kong Country Tropical Freeze, Super Mario Smash Bros, Monster Hunter 3, Splatoon, Pikmin 3, Super Mario Maker, Pushmo World etc are highly rated titles.

Then there are third party titles that have elements that have made them play superiorly to other console counterparts, Deus Ex Human Revolution, Bayonetta, Rayman Legends, Batman Arkham City, Freedom Planet (only available on PC/Linux). Then there is the highly rated Freedom Planet exclusive to PC/Linux/Wii U.

I am not a fanboy...and to you not even a 'gamer' according to your maligned rant on your 'journalistic' post of afore on the 'gameboy' 2DS. But the reason I own Nintendo consoles is to play the few exclusives released for them that you simply cannot get elsewhere, obviously looking at the Wii U output if you are not a fan of Mario steer clear.

​Good for you.
Now I'll reiterate my point without mentioning any other console: there aren't 600+ games made for the Wii U, which is what the other guy was trying to say there is available for it.
It was misinformation that I felt the need to correct.
I voted hot for the Mario n Luigi deal, as at £140, it seems 'reasonable'.
Not Splatoon though, CEX are carrying loads of it and it's on here for £20.

Who honestly cares which console some random on the internet prefers?

Wii U will be dead in 12 months, but has far better exclusives. PS4/XBO won't be dead in 12 months, but neither have such great exclusives, far better multi-plat, clearly.

But, stop hating on others, buy the console you prefer and play the games, why can't we all just get along? :wink:

went there today.3 boxes left . none of which have the games in or uploadex onto the system. it is the bare console. you could get cheaper on ebay with games.

I went to the walsall clearance bargains and initially thought it was good bargain. Got the lovely girl to open it up for me and alas the console was well scratched and the control pad was well worn and scratched. Its been well used for a good few months and you could get better even on ebay.

Got a Nexus 7 for £35 for though haha

​boxed game as I think this was the only way to get the game!!

​I only got my machine couple weeks ago, watched about 5 now all went for around 50 inc one sealed as it was foreign copy! not many are sold on Ebay but I will keep watching and hopefully get one for 35 :smiley:

Spot on.

But is the vilification not a masked mark of respect and compliment to the Wii U? As it primarily comes from XB/PS fans who dislike what Nintendo do, it usually has strong hints of dissatisfaction and discontent with what they have. Everyone, Nintendo fan or not is aware you get something very good and unique on a Nintendo console that you will never get on rival consoles.

Easily solved by just having a 2nd console and spreading the love of course. But I guess its cheaper and easier just to hate a certain console and spread genocidal attitudes towards it.

The same site lists the XB and PS at 900 games approx each. There is little difference. And it does not factor in quality vs quantity or that other console titles are 50% made up of generic shooters.

The Wii U is only dead when:-
(a) You can't buy it anywhere (or its being given away dirt cheap)
(b) Game production has ceased
(c) People stop buying the Wii U.
(d) It has been superceded (which is defined as a new console has been released and is available to consumers for purchase).

Long live the Wii U? Hail the Wii U? A very fine machine with some cracking software.

I certainly feel a lot of criticism of Nintendo and Wii U is certainly maligned.

Since the Gamecube I certainly have my own level of criticism towards Nintendo, although as you say you get something unique some of their franchises have become stale in their recycled nature...although that maybe because I am an ageing gamer that has already seen x, y or z from Nintendo, although look at Halo, Uncharted, the multi format CoD, Assassins Creed etc.

I do feel Nintendo need more new IPs if they cannot get the strength of third party publishers behind them, but as long as platform games are of interest to me, no matter how much I love owing Playstation consoles....Nintendo will always be my other port of call.

There are people campaigning for new Marioland spin off games with neglected characters such as 'Goomba Games' and 'Waluigi Wings' (a sort of racing game cross between MK, Starfox & Pilot Wings).

Cheep Cheep Fishing or Rosalinas Ice Quest anyone?

Who brought those other 2 consoles into this?
I'm refuting your statement that there are 600+ games for THIS console by ACTUALLY checking the source and noting (roughly) how many are not available.

FTR, no game with this bundle would make it a terrible purchase.
The console is simply not worth £140 alone.
I could go on, but I've made my point.
There are not 600+ games made for the Wii U.

Any stock in Stanley? Either present or recent? Much appreciated.
