My Wii U is still taking pride of place under the living room telly, and is staying there for the foreseeable as I only currently rate my Switch in handheld mode. Too many good games still to play on the Wii U, it's also a great machine for parties (and multiplayer in general), and is also now a mighty fine emulation machine - I'll probably clod my Raspberry Pi out from under the telly first! If and when it's time to go, it'll still probably get plenty use as I'll just hook it up to the bedroom TV.

Basically, it's going nowhere yet! ;)

Although my wiiu has been collecting dust for the past couple years I've started playing again since getting a switch and even bought a game. Unless there's some amazing switch homebrew I'll be keeping my wiiu as it's my go to nes,snes,n64,gc,wii,wiiu.

Plus with the poor sales there's a good chance of it having a decent resale value in the future.

Keeping my main console and still ponder what to do with my "console only" Wii U. Paid $100 for it two years ago and probably can't get much for it right now after fees.

Wii U still getting lots use right now. My youngest started BotW a few days early with the EU version and made enough progress that he prefers to continue on with that one. Actually works out well because 3 of us are playing the game so less bickering over who gets to play.

    I'm so pumped, NCAA football video game is back after a 10 year hiatus, coming to SeriesS/X, PS5 in July.
  • BigOnYa @ BigOnYa:
    Wish they would let us play the NCAA football 14 on newer xbox, its one of the only games I love and own on disc still, that is not back compatible, bs.
  • AdenTheThird @ AdenTheThird:
    @BigOnYa My dad recently bought a spare Series X off of me, got game pass, and saw Madden '24 on Game Pass, decided to try it out.

    ...He was a bit taken aback by the 60GB download size. Poor guy's still living in the 90s!

  • AdenTheThird @ AdenTheThird:
    @K3Nv2 He was looking into consoles for his house anyway (for my younger siblings and himself) and I had a spare XSX and Switch I ended up selling him at pretty steep cuts. I would just give them to him, but I did buy them with the intent to sell them... and college is super expensive.
