With the new Lego Marvel game not coming out on wii,my kid’s wii is finally becoming a dinosaur. Is this wii u thingimy compatable with the 25 games they have for the wii,or are they starting from scratch(in which case it will be a bloody second hand xbox 360)

Just been through this and ordered a PS3. The Wii U will play the older Wii games, BUT the main issue for us is that junior 1 is getting older and wants more of the teenage type games which you don’t get as many as of for the Wii.

I did resist the PS4 and Xbox One though.

My kids have thoroughly enjoyed the lego games on Wii U. Should be some good deals on it now.

I’ve thoroughly enjoyed them, and I’m 41.
