It depends. Do you want the best non-handheld system around? Of what is current:

1 - 3ds
2 - Wii U
3 - PS4
4 - Bone
5 - Vita
6 - Be a loser PC gamer.

Just a heads up, a Wii U is a video games console, not a juicer or a vibrator or whatever else you made up.

Don't buy a console for games that aren't out yet, that's a waste of money. Between Mario Kart, Donkey Kong Country: Tropical Freeze, New Super Mario U, Mario 3D World, Nintendo Land (yes really), Pikmin 3, and Smash Bros, the Wii U is definitely worth owning right now. Bayonetta, Wonderful 101, and Hyrule Warriors are kinda niche titles but if any of them click with you you'll get a ton of mileage out of them as well.

Crossposting from the eShop thread. I just received my country's NOE newsletter. They are promising the return of a bunch of reward items for Club Nintendo along with new additions, so if you are in Europe and still have stars check if there's anything below that you may want to keep them for.




You can figure out what most of that stuff is in spite of the language. On the bottom there's a note saying (very roughly translated):

"along with these other items:
Game case holder version 2
Kirby blanket
Mario card memory game
Mario Kart 8 soundtrack CD
Club Nintendo Farewell Commemorative Coin"

I'm just quoting this for the pictures but :peanut:These are confirmed as all coming to the aussie Club Nintendo too:peanut:

I'm probably gonna get the Goodbye Coin just for the hell of it, and one or two of the Mario Kart trophies.

Koei-Tecmo has confirmed an international release for Samurai Warriors Chronicles 3 for 3DS. (There's also a Vita version, which looks to be a 3DS up-port.)

Hmm, I was gonna grab the Vita version but having the map touch stuff in the bottom screen is probably a lot easier if there's not really going to me much graphical difference.

If you have the stars and want to buy the captain toad lamp, would you be willing to sell it?

my kid's nuts for captain toad and his mind may just explode

unfortunately this poo poo can only be bought for stars and I have no idea how much it would cost in actual hard cash to buy enough items to get the stars to buy it.

The 3DS version has worse graphics, frame rate, and less enemies on screen. Knowing KT they'll probably put both demos out on their respective shops so you can give them a whirl if you want a hands-on look.

And in more news of non-mobile gaming being dead in Japan, here's the Codename STEAM sale numbers on its debut week:

code:
[3DS] Code Name: S.T.E.A.M. <ACT> (Nintendo) {2015.05.14} (¥5.076) - 1.835 / NEW

The writing's been on the wall for a while since early in the year, but nothing much sells anymore in Japan -- numbers just keep dwindling week after week. Embrace the last generation of non-F2P mobile-only Japanese games while it lasts, because it's nearly over.
