DTY3 posted...So when good games do come out I won't have to worry about shelling out 300 later.
Pretty much this.
That and, well, I can start on my Wii U gaming NOW. I'm a gamer. Obviously I love to play games. You know what I hate? Backlog! Buy the thing a year later? I already have a backlog, as I have a year's worth of good games I want to play, PLUS whatever is coming out.
Even if I buy the thing at launch, I will never get to play all the games I want to play, but at least I give myself a chance. A year down the road? Hang it up...Backlog time...ugh (especially when the older games are cheap?...MAN! I will never be able to keep up).
That's another reason.
Also...I just like owning the damn thing. =D
