Review on ๐ŸŽฎ Nintendo Wii U 8GB Basic Set - White: Next-Level Gaming Console by Jerry Eintertainment

Revainrating 5 out of 5

Breathed new life into the Wii library

I buy Nintendo consoles for Mario and Zelda. There were a few other Wii games that I really liked (Dawn of Discovery, Dead Space Extraction, Goldeneye), but the Wii was mostly limited to shelf space. I bought a Wii U for Windwaker and Mario 3d World and they are both great. Let's go back to the original Wii. I hated the picture quality. I used HDTV component cables and then switched to an HDMI connection, which was an improvement. But the picture quality never looked good. A few weeks ago my son pulled Epic Mickey (a mediocre game) off the shelf and begged me to play it. When I put it in, the cutscene picture quality was AMAZING. As soon as I started playing the quality dropped, but still it was a HUGE, I mean HUGE improvement over the original Wii picture quality. This seemingly unknown fact of how great the original Wii games look on Wii U is the reason for this review. I can't believe more people aren't talking about how great Wii games look on Wii U. It gave me the impulse to buy a few Wii games which I turned down because I didn't like the Wii. I plan to buy The Last Story, Xenoblade Chhornicles, Boy and His Drop, Bully etc. Playing Super Mario Galaxy right now and it looks great! All in all a great console and I can only recommend it.
