Topic	What the fuck is up with the Wii U being so goddamn expensive?!
lihlih 08/31/21 6:11:42 PM #63:	streamofthesky posted... Still have my Wii U. Refused to rebuy Bayonetta 2, BotW, Smash Bros, Guacamelee, Shantae & The Pirate's Curse (so bogus that I can't transfer the last two to Switch since they're digital...). Did end up rebuying Hyrule Warriors for all the improvements/additions... It's mostly there to play Xenoblade X again if I feel like it. I worry about what happens when the Gamepad goes. Apparently it's got some custom battery that you can't easily replace and it won't function even plugged in w/o it. And I'm sure the screen will go at some point. It never got official spares for individual sale and the console died so fast that no 3rd parties bothered making knock offs. Some games are unplayable w/o it and I recall needing to use it for a lot of system management stuff (as in forced to; there was no legit reason to force me onto that screen and yet it did). When I was looking up the Wii U, I saw a spare gamepad for sale on Amazon. It was like a hundred bucks though, which is pretty fucking ridiculous. --- People come up to me... concerned.. that I'll reproduce." - Emo Philips <cite>lihlih posted [p:957618629] in What the f...
