Underrated Console.

The Wii U is an underrated console. I've always wanted one, but wait for a good deal on pre-owned/refurb. Unfortunately, it wasn't very popular and the games are limited due to lack of interest, but the games are available are pretty good. The Zelda remakes look great and the Super Mario games are always hours of entertainment. Granted...a lot of the games are ports, but are fun to replay non-the less. Also a big plus is that they are easily soft modded and I can back up my disc games to a portable hard drive and not worry about popping in a disk every single time. There are also home-brew apps to play classic NES/SNES/N64/Game Cube games. I can pretty much replay my entire Nintendo Franchise on the Wii U. My only issue is that the range of the Game Pad isn't what i though it would be. No issues using the game pad in the same room, but when you walk out of the same room you loose connection. I would have been nice to be able to keep the console down in the basement and walk upstairs and solely use the Gamepad without being in line of sight to the console. That's where the Nintendo Switch is so successful...you can pick up the switch on the go and play anywhere you want. Overall, its nice to be able to go back and play all the Zelda games on both a TV screen and Gamepad screen.Read full review
