PS3 or Wii U?

I've been debating whether to get a PS3 (for Playstation Allstars Battle Royal) or Wii U (for Scribblenauts Unlimited). There's a Boxing Day Week sale at my EBGames and the PS3 is cheaper but the Wii U has some cool looking games. Help?

Wii U.

I personally don't have one, but the Scribblenauts saga is more epic then any fighting game.

Re: PS3 or Wii U?

Wii u, because ps3 is going to be outdated by the end of 2013, most likely

WiiU. It has a cool controller, will be out-of-date later than the PS3, and is backwards comparable with the Wii.

I don't have either, but I choose Wii U.

Re: PS3 or Wii U?

Wii U

Wii U has barely any games. While I am blown away at what Nintendo did, it needs more games and more marketing.

The PS3 is still great but Nintendo did a great job engineering a playing style that won't be old for a while.

........... no. just no. Think about all the new third party support the Wii lacked. And the PS3 is at the end of it's life, so it wouldn't be worth it. Wii U just started, so it's entirely worth it.

Re: PS3 or Wii U?

PS3.  It has better games, a better control scheme, and I dislike Nintendo (meaning that I dislike most of Nintendo's work, not that I'm prejudiced against Nintendo products because I don't like the company).  IMO, Nintendo is mostly a casual gamer's company, but they refuse to be satisfied this and keep trying to branch into the serious gamers' market.  Which is perfectly understandable.  If they hadn't proven that they can't make that work far too many times already.

It is in English. If you didn't understand what I said, I said that the Wii U has the third party support the Wii mostly lacked. And the PS3 is at the end of it's lifecycle, so it wouldn't be worth it because it would just get outdated within two years.

So you say having to reach your thumbs down to move an analog stick is more comfortable than just grabbing the conroller and your thumbs naturally being there?

If there's buttons on the sides that you have to push quite frequently yes

Uh... yes?  That's exactly what I'm saying.  I'd thought that it went without saying.

Well the only point of Sony in gaming is to make the console.  The PS3 gives us:

Just Cause 2
Shadow of the Colossus (sorta; HD remake, but it was PS2 that gave us the original anyway)
Portal (series)
Final Fantasy Fabula Nova Crystallis series
TF2
Spec Ops: The Line
LittleBigPlanet 2

Your go.  Games on Wii U?
