Exactly what Serza said. WiiU does indeed have good games. It had a rough start at the beginning due to lack of interesting games or franchises everyone loves. What's Nintendo famous for? Let's see: Super Mario, The Legend of Zelda, Donkey Kong, Metroid, Kirby, Pokemon... Nintendo has A LOT of different characters and franchises to pick from and love. And some are borrowed from other systems, say, Assassin's Creed for instance.

The WiiU, to be honest, did not interest me at first due to the lack of franchise I'm seeking. These were, specifically, Pokemon, Super Smash Bros (which I expected, they've been making them for at home consoles: N64, Gamecube, and Wii), Fire Emblem, and some other things. Yes, I do like Super Mario, but not enough to want the games. Which, many people, love the Super Mario games and happily bought the new ones like LuigiU and Mario Party and stuff like that. I personally like the Mario Kart series out of the Mario franchise. I like The Legend of Zelda, but again, not enough to buy it (immediately, should I add). I like Pikmin, so I'm considering Pikmin 3. I love Assassin's Creed, not enough to buy it strictly on the Nintendo systems. I like playing them on Xbox much better for some unknown reason. That would be a reason to get the Xbox One or PS4.

So if anyone were like me, maybe they were simply waiting for the franchises they like and want. :/
