Im thinking about selling my WiiU stuff… good or bad idea? (Ignore the PSP games)
WiiU that comes with lots of Wii and WiiU games. Its also softmodded (I guess that’s how you say it. It is a huge symbol of my childhood.
-8Gb white Wii U
-The console works fine. No scratches, no hardware issues. However, it might rarely crash right after exiting a game through Home Menu (principally Minecraft). A forced reboot can solve it with no problem, you won’t have issues during gameplay.
-It was purchased in Portugal 🇵🇹 11 years ago bundled with Wii Party U, Nintendo Land, and a Wii Remote Controller (tho Im not sure, it was an anniversary gift). If I am not mistaken, its a PAL version.
-It comes with every single cable and charger that a packaged WiiU should come with + the Wii controller comes with a Nunchuck and a support for Gamepad (a black plastic support)
-The console has the necessary modded files on a 16GB SD card, and the games are installed on a 32GB pen drive
-it has Nusspli, Pretendo to play discontinued online games, customised wallpaper, and VWii has the original Wii’s hardware settings menu
-Im gonna sell it in Portugal from OLX (probably)
Now for the games list:
WiiU games (physical) :
-Splatoon
-Super Mario Maker (it comes with an art book)
-Mario Kart 8
-Super Mario 3D World
-Paper Mario Color Splash
-Super Smash Bros. 4
-Kirby and the Rainbow Paintbrush
-Yoshi’s Wooly World
-Wii Party U
-Nintendo Land
-Sonic Racing All-Stars Transformed
Wii games:
-Just Dance 2018
-Sonic Unleashed
-Sonic Colours
-New Super Mario Bros Wii
-Super Mario Galaxy
-Mario Kart Wii
All the games are PAL version
WiiU is a console that made me enjoy gaming in a way that any other won’t ever do. I still love playing videogames, and I spent hours playing on it. Now I became an adult, and I think other people might need it more than I do. Its complicated, but that’s part of growing up. (Use PS5 currently).
Not that I don’t enjoy the WiiU anymore, but I have completed every single physical game I have (Completed all Mario Kart Tracks with perfect score, I beated Mario 3D World 100% twice…)
I found the idea of reviving Miiverse fun (since I never used it before, I was too young for that), but guess what? Its 2026. They all type like its TikTok/Twitter, which is not cool at all.
Since Iwata passed away, new Nintendo consoles lost its soul if we talk about OS innovation and soundtracks. The same can’t be applied to 1st party games and 3rd party compatibility. Switch rocks with that, and game library is more worthwhile than charming menus (Eshop has had shutdown anyway, no more background music while looking for Demos 😢)
Im not selling it here, I know it is not allowed. Im just asking if it is a good idea.
And about the bundle price… lets say it is financially more valuable than a new Switch OLED.
Not sure what I’ll do with the money, but I could use it to get the Switch 2 (I broke my previous Switch V1, so I will have plenty of games to entertain myself and my brother for a long time anywhere I want).
I would appreciate your help guys!
As a Nintendo Wii U lover, I really need assistance to make this decision.
