I used the Sunshine game streaming software and the WiiU homebrew port of Moonlight to get game streaming working on a WiiU gamepad. It’s sort of like a bootleg Steam Deck, and it works surprisingly well, but it mostly just made me want a Steam Deck.

    The WiiU was ahead of its time.

    Great little console.

      The WiiU crawled so the Switch could walk so the Deck could run

      Looking back, it almost feels like a Switch prototype. It’s a goofy little thing, but I love it. That said, I also love the Nintendo Virtual Boy, so my judgement might be questionable.

    Wii U is one of the best consoles of all time and hardly anyone knows it

      negligible compared to the pal display and jet engine noise?
