Reply to comment by SicTim in Shall I get a Wii, or a WiiU? by katorce

How is the Wii-U regarding to controllers? It is a console I got very little info, and I can see they connect to a wiimote?

The main point for the wii would be price, as a second hand wii with controllers I think it will be about 100, whilst the Wii U I think it can be around 200. And at that point, getting the switch is very tempting.

Yes, it uses the Wiimotes, Nunchuks, and Pro Controller -- I didn't upgrade my controllers at all. I can't remember if it came with a Wiimote, but you're going to want at least one if you plan on multiplayer.

If the Switch is in play, I'd honestly go for that. Like I said, a lot of the early releases were the best Wii U games (sometimes upgraded, like more tracks in Mario Kart 8), or sequels to the best Wii U games -- "Splatoon" was hands down my favorite Wii U title (best multiplayer shooter since Battlefield 1942, IMO), and I've thought about picking up a Switch just for Splatoon 2&3.

The switch is in place yes. Those are the prices I got on my mind:

Wii U console: 70 pounds

Wiimote + nunchuck: 15 × 2 = 30 pounds

Wii U pro controller: 25 pounds

That makes about 130 pounds...

Thw switch oled can be obtained by 270 pounds... And the switch pro controller don't look that uncomfortable as the wiimote...
