Nintendo Runs Out Of Replacement Parts For Wii U, Ends Repair Service In Japan - lemm.ee

I feel like the Wii U is gonna have a resurgence in popularity one day much like the GameCube, as an underappreciated console in its time. The Gamepad is a pretty weird controller, but the console had some pretty solid games for it. Then again, Nintendo did port most of those solid titles to the Switch, so it may not happen.
Still waiting on a Xenoblade Chronicles X port to drop.

That and Wind Waker HD are the two heavy hitters that are still locked to the platform, there’s a handful of others like Twilight Princess HD, Kirby and the Rainbow Curse, Yoshi’s Wooly World, Star Fox Zero, though porting some of those might not be possible without completely altering the gameplay.

It would’ve been nice if they kept Splatoon 1 alive somehow, but there’s zero chance of that when they already have two sequel games on switch.
