Why it doesn't always have to be the latest gaming console

Why it doesn't always have to be the latest gaming console

Which gaming console to buy for Christmas? Quite simple, one might think: Playstation or Xbox, anything else is out of the question anyway… Especially because new devices have just come onto the market there. But what seemed simple turns out to be complicated the closer you get to the actual purchase decision. And then with the model Wii U from Nintendo, a device comes into play that hardly anyone had on their shopping list before.

Why it doesn't always have to be the latest gaming console

As an alternative to gaming, fans of sports can try their luck at sportsbetting with many promotions and offers like the unibet nj promo code.

Because in the first year after the market launch, the successor to the blockbuster Wii sold disappointingly. But Nintendo still seems to have a chance. Because the new devices from Microsoft and Sony are usually not available, which is a story in itself given the size of these two companies and the years in advance of product release. In addition, the Playstation 4 and Xbox One also cost a lot of money. So the question soon arises as to whether it has to be the new consoles at all: Don't the previous models, which are still available, cheaper and available in stores, also do the same?

Old games won't work on new consoles, and vice versa

The games for the new consoles don't run on the old ones anyway, but unfortunately it's the other way around. So if you still invest in games for the Playstation 3 or Xbox 360 today, you will no longer be able to use them if you want to replace the consoles with more modern ones at some point. What remains is the Wii U. It is available, including games, for less than 300 euros and is also able to process most of the games from the popular previous model, the Wii . The old accessories also work.

The customer is faced with a dilemma when buying a console this Christmas. Do you want to take the risk of placing your trust in a provider that many analysts have already certified that their Wii U is done for? Do you want to purchase a console that, in Electronic Arts, one of the world's largest game manufacturers, seems to have already withdrawn its trust because, among other things, it no longer developed its popular soccer simulation game FIFA 14 specifically for the Wii U?

Anyone who has a family with children who are not all in their senior teens will be inclined to answer yes to the question. The first reports are actually coming from the market that more parents are doing this these days than assumed a few weeks ago.

Some so-called hardcore gamers will laugh at it. But there are still families in which such games should be a real community pleasure in addition to classic board games - and it is precisely this target group that could be the last straw for Nintendo . Shortly before Christmas, the fitness machine advertised by Steffi Graf and her husband called “Wii Fit U” made it into stores. And its predecessor was after all one of the more important arguments in favor of buying the old Wii.
