Nintendo released a console last year, titled the wii u, and it has currently sold quite poorly, though picking up speed as of late. And the major reason many, MANY players decide not to purchase this glorious system, is that is has NO GAMES.
Now while i can agree with you on that that when it launched it has a devastating lack of games out with the console, but as of right now, c'mon people this system has games, has exclusives and is bloody innovative!
Now you're probably wondering why the title is a VS for the next gen, well im going to compare the games in a hopeful unbiased way.
First the amount of games currently out for each system.
Wii U: 236
Xbox One: 77
PS4: 174
Now the first thing you're thinking if you hate nintendo because they came into your room when you were an infant and took your teddy bear. You're going to say "Well they released their console a year before, they had time to get more games out than the other groups" And that is completely true, As of right now, nintendo has the most games, So the phrase "Wii u has no games" Doesn't quite work...
"But wait!" you say, "Nintendo likes to have shovelware titles that boost the numbers!" I agree whole heartily. Titles like jeopardy on the wii u leave a bitter taste in my mouth whenever i go to a games store. Well lets break down that big number again shall we? The amount of games for each one, but this time only counting exclusives.
Wii U: 49
Xbox One: 15
PS4: 26
Again you're jumping to that thought that nintendo had a whole year to come out with these games, And again you are very right. Nintendo had a whole year to pump out games for their console that they have, the one that does in fact have games.
I'm not going to tell you that the wii u is superior, nor that ps4 having more games an exclusives than the xbox one proves it's better. I'm just trying to give you some facts that nintendo's current console, the one that has "no games" CURRENTLY, has games, CURRENTLY.
So whats stopping you from buying one? Price? No, because it's the cheapest of the 3. Game count? No because i just covered that. You know what it is?
Status.
Social Status. You want the ps4 or Xbox one because you want the world to know how much of a big player you are (and gamer). Maybe the games you got that are out right now are amazing, and you are entitled to that feeling. I understand many of the exclusives are fun, but i also know that many people buy AC4 and CoD, which is also out for the wii u.
You may say, "oh i'm waiting for certain games to come out for the system is why i bought it", then why not wait for those certain games to come out? I had preordered a PS4 since E3, but cancelled it because i realized, the games i wanted to get on the PS4 were going to be on the Wii U.
Final statement, stop saying the wii u has no games. Just say you hate nintendo because they stole your teddy bear. That's at least more believable.
I'm sorry if i brought up any traumatic memories.
