Think of getting a 3dsxl, mana tau announced New 3ds next year. So cancel plan

Then i think of WiiU.
Guys, If i only have time and effort for one console, is Wii u better than 3ds, and suffice for its list of games.

Dunno why i just couldnt conclude myself wif a Ps4 or xbox one although they look charming.

I am not sure if Wii U is better than 3DS for you. That one you have to decide.
But we can discuss la base on your preference.  whistling.gif

How many hours do you have time to play daily?
What type of games are you interested in?
More additional info needed, so we can know which one is better for you.

Lol cant even sure how many hours i would have for gaming if i buy it. Having stepped away from gaming quite many years ad and into my 30 of age this year.

Well, i liked fps,shooters and action when i was active gaming back then but even that, i think i no longer fancy them and will not go back xbox and wait for Halo 5.

I sorted out some list of wii u and 3ds games, i would say i can forgo japanese rpgs which are alot on 3ds. I still enjoy looking at platformers titles and zelda im still a fan having played gba and ndsl zelda b4.

Hmm. Imo if Wii U future dev and upcoming game list is promising, it will do me well enough and can play along with my wife too.

If you plan on local multiplayer Wii U is the best when it comes to that. Can even say it's better than PS4/Xbone as well  whistling.gif
All the Wii U titles are really good and well polished, you can't go wrong with any of the Nintendo first party games. They are just awesome for me.
If you don't mind in the number of game libraries the Wii U have, then go for it

3DS has a lot of libraries of games but if you wanna play some games with your wife it's not gonna be good tongue.gif Get a Wii U
Both 3DS and Wii U are really good and choosing any of them wouldn't be bad in anyway IMO.

The amount of hours I ask was because if you are super hardcore, there might not be enough games for you on the Wii U. But I could say that Mario Kart 8, and soon the come Smash Bros. will keep you occupied for a long time. Games like Wii Sports Club, Nintendoland, Wii Fit U is gonna be awesome for your family. As well as local multiplayer like Super Mario 3D World, Mario Bros., MK8 and Smash. Wii U would fit the family picture well. But if you gaming alone 3DS is also good with huge libraries to consider.

I let you decide  tongue.gif

Thanks much for the help, Rei

Decided to get a Wii U. Now just need to see which package to get or wait for Hyrule Warrior / Bayonetta 2 first.

Checked out Nintendo at E3 2014. The only thing set me back is still support from 3rd party games. And as I read somewhere, after Watch Dogs (which doesntfix for a release date yet), Wii U will undergo next 1-2 years without 3rd party titles, is that true? I remember old Wii used to have considerably enough of 3rd party games. I'm suprised Bayonetta 2 is exclusive for Wii U, I played the first one on X360 and impressed albeit not a DMC player. But I do not think B2 carries much weight in pushing Wii U sales. Nevertheless, if I get a Wii U it's a must buy tongue.gif

It's good to see both Wii U and 3DS both offer online multiplayer now. When it comes to local multiplayer, excuse me if i'm too behind of dates, do you mean split screen? shocking.gif
I had X360 for longest period, followed up by a little NDSL and then Wii but I never really get started on Wii, so I can definitely go back and catch up more than enough of great titles on Wii, which alot of them helped me to trade my X360 for Wii before.

Definitely can't be hardcore player already, but sure miss gaming life you know that feeling right, and hope to have some casual time on it.
