The Nintendo Switch is a great system for families, but my recommendation for a Nintendo Black Friday offer is the Wii U. Not only is it almost half the price for playing a lot of identical (or very similar) games, but this offers a multiplayer experience like Nintendo Land which are always incomparable by the switch.
The Wii U underperformed by most measures and is now seen as a failing video game system – or at least inappropriate. This reputation has a hidden advantage for families because games and system hardware have a very low second hand price.

Normally, Nintendo games retain their price long after their release. But on the Wii U, you can go for Mario Kart 8 for as little as $ 16.95 second hand on Amazon. Zelda Wild Breath sells for $ 26.99. It must be remembered that Zelda Wild Breath was originally developed on the Wii U and focused on Switch, so it works very well on the old system.
Of course, the Wii U also offers backward compatibility with all your Wii games. Add to that the low price of Wii remotes and it's a system that really offers good value for money.

It also has games that are impossible on other systems. Of Sonic and All Stars Racing transformed ($90 New) single mode 5 players, to Nintendo Land & # 39; s ($ 19.99 new) amazing multiplayer games that combine different controllers with different roles. Lego City Undercover ($ 19.99 new) is one of the best Lego games for years. Donkey Kong Tropical Freeze is only $ 19.99 compared to $59.99 for the Switch version.

I spent last weekend looking how much would cost a Wii U, Zelda Wild Breath, Mario Kart 8 and four Wii remote controllers. I wanted to be able to play Mario Kart with four players, and I thought the family would not already have a Wii, which would reduce the need to buy an additional Wii remote. I based the comparison on Amazon prices, the option used being chosen where it was cheaper and available.
For the Wii U:
- $ 139.21 Wii U Premium system, joystick and a Wii Remote
- $ 26.99 Zelda Wild Breath
- $ 19.49 Mario Kart 8
- $ 68.97 3 Wii Remotes ($ 22.99 * 3)
- TOTAL: $ 254.66
For the switch:
- $279.99 Nintendo Switch
- $ 43.49 Zelda Wild Breath
- $ 52.99 Mario Kart 8
- $00 Joy Con
- Total: $ 445.47
As you can see, that makes all the difference. In addition, as the images in this article show, the price difference in the UK is even greater.
Parents looking for a Black Friday switch should pause and consider the Wii U. Especially if you have younger children who do not have to "play" Fortnite or the latest version of FIFAThis is a great option. Not only because of the low price, but also because of the multiplayer experiences offered (especially when a player uses the tablet and the other four TVs) still can not be matched by the switch or other systems.
