I actually just came looking for this thread, was wondering the exact same thing, kinda. Spent the evening at a buddies playing the new Mario Kart. Hadn't thought of the Wii U much but man it's a fun system. Mario Kart (8?) was a heck of a lot of fun.
Like Flash, I'm a little worried about replay value.. my Wii was really only used when I had people over and collected dust for the vast majority of it's life. Loved playing Mario games on other platforms though.. played the heck out of a Kart version on a game boy version years ago.. but for the Wii, wasn't into it nearly as much. Nintendo does Nintendo games perfectly but I fear the Wii U will be amazing at first but just be in the way for years after.
Having recently purchased the Xbox One I'll feel super silly walking into the house with another console.
