NOSTALGIA ALERT
The Wii U may not have sold well, but in my opinion, it was a great console. The games on it are to this day some of the best games Nintendo has ever made. I thought I'd make a little tribute, especially since the Wii U and Nintendo 3DS eShops are being shut down in 2023.
Thank you, Wii U.

I love the fact that the best selling switch game is a port of a Wii U game
Which itself was also the best selling Wii U game.

Ty
Man even got the sound of the disc drive firing up, absolutely perfect
That sounds like an 80/90s computer the a real Wii u, like, come on... it even has a PO-ST(power on self test) beep for a really locked down console??
@@buizelmeme6288that’s definitely what the drive sounds like
It sounds exactly like my Wii U's drive, down to the pattern of clicking sounds 😭I also don't think thats a POST beep, it kinda sounds like a mechanical part of the drive moving to me @@buizelmeme6288
@@buizelmeme6288I have a Wii U and the drive sounds like that
I backed up all my games and now I miss that sound. Might play a physical copy later.
god, the splatoon one, the reason why people wanted splat 3 to have apartments
I actually thought that was the home of the player
@@cherrybombwaffles518 I'm play
@@UL54968 what?
1:12
Those would be so much more fun than lockers
it’s a shame so many people missed out on the wii u it wasn’t that bad imo
Honestly the switch and the wii u are probably not even that different. I think they're about the same power, but the switch it's just more.
Switch has better games but is just a worse system beyond games
@@cardboardking577 I mean, if I had to buy one without any games, Wii U definitely.
But... you tend to buy a system for it's games.
@@trungussbut the games dont define a system. the switch is a downgrade from the wii u in any comparison other than power
@@ilikesonicxbro I mean, ultimately, they do. Switch is a downgrade in personality, and I hate it for that, but it is quite literally just a better console in general because of the support it gets.
The one thing the Wii U has over the Switch, virtual console aside:
A more charming menu and game booting transition.
Let's hope that the Switch 2 will bring these types of transitions back.
I feel like for the release of the switch 2 they might update the themes and add music. I don’t think they’ll add gane transitions but I do think they’ll have a update for old switches, and new switches that will just have new UI styles that a way it’s easier to advertise that it’s a “new” console so they don’t screw up like they did with WiiU
On one hand I agree with you, the Wii U had way more charm and personality system wise than the switch.
But we need to consider what these are: loading screens. Some of these being especially loooooong. I gotta say this has its charm, but I prefer a faster loading console than one that has a cute image that pops up for 2 minutes every time I boot up the game
the wii u is a great console,marketing killed it
I really hope the switch 2 has more charm and soul to it like how the gamecube through Wii U did in there menus. If they can keep the snappiness of the switch and have a soul too, that would be great.
Charming *and* practical. The 3DS and Wii U folders really came in handy to organize games and apps. Looking for a game on the Switch when you have many is so freaking annoying. They implemented folders with an update after years lacking them, but they did in such a freaking unconfortable way...
1:50 It makes me a little sad to think that that sound is the last breath of life for the Wii U
Explain
@@the_mariocrafter Breath of the Wild was the last Nintendo game released on Wii U, at the same time was the first Switch game so BOTW killed the Wii U
@@LuxP64yes, that makes sense. Anyway, the picture represented is sad in a way as well because it means the last fight before the fall of the kingdom.
“Breath of life” see what you did there lol.

A thing to know is there is an extended version to most of the startups, usually if it takes much longer to load
Or if you press the eject button while its loading
w sig pfp
Yeah I would get the NSMBU one on my scratched disk quite a bit
Idk what it is about the disc drive “noises” but that genuinely makes me tear up. So good(?)
The Wii U represented so much to me as a kid. “Unlocking” every new loading screen was such a thrill to me. I love that console so much.
1:05 is iconic
That game was so fire bro
@@XLR8BLUEfr
FRRR one of my favorite game on the wii u
definitely gonna record myself playing a couple of these games in April before the online gets shut down
I'll never forget when my parents brought me a Wii U for Christmas back in 2014 and my siblings and I only played Mario Kart 8 for one week straight
Good ol' time 😔
BRO ME TOO
I got mine in 2015 with Splatoon and a Just Dance game. It has Mario Kart 8 with all dlc included digitally.
i will never forget when we got a wii u for christmas (nostaliga hits like a train)
I still got a Wii U that has Mario Kart 8 built in
fr man...I grew up playing on the Wii U and 3DS, and I started playing on my Wii U in like 2015. It had Super Mario 3D World and Nintendo Land on it digitally...
And for my 6th birthday, my aunt bought me Yoshi's Woolly World for my Wii U, and I remember playing like 5 rounds of Smash Bros, moving on to Super Mario 3D World and playing like until World 7 with 3 other kids at my party, and then taking turns with my brother and other kids at my party in Nintendo Land at Octopus Dance and playing with my brother at the Pikmin one.
My favorite Nintendo Land games are probably the Mario Chase and the Luigi's Mansion one.
The moment my aunt brought Yoshi's Woolly World, I automatically took the Super Smash Bros disk out of the console, and put the Yoshi's Woolly World one in the console, and just played until like World 3 on it.
Ah, the good old days.....
Mario Kart 8's startup screen was the cleanest transition known to man.
For sure
Makes 8 Deluxe’s intro a little jarring
And don't forget Lego Dimensions.
OG MK8 hit different on the Wii U back in the day
@@xrchiveunlimited For real, especially the very first MK8 trailer, holy crap
1:12 This one is Goat. 💙😭
Real
i noticed the physical version makes the music go longer bc its still streaming everything
3:57 **laughs in Pretendo**
The pikmin 3 splash screen is so nostalgic, even if it is on switch now something about those splash screens made games just feel different when you started playing them
Yeah, Nintendo always had something like this. Why did they remove it from the switch
@@Fancy2209Real it's like they wanted the switch to be as boring as possible
@@Fancy2209Real They kept the splash screen but removed the music
Thank you for making this. I'm one of the few kids that grew up with a Wii U. I used to have an original Wii from 2013 to 2016 and then bought my Wii U in 2016. Now I've modded it and I still play on it sometimes. I used to play Splatoon, Minecraft, Mario Kart Wii and Mario Kart 8, LEGO games and Wii Sports + Wii Sports Resort.
Yooo, I'm also one of the 4 Wii U owners, I'm so happy for this video too

Switch has no animation, no banner, no startup nothing, just straight to the game
Yeah :(
F for all of the recently bricked Wii U 😔😔
My first Wii U was part of that unlucky few..
This problem started in 2019 and is still present… What it does is bot jsut fine to the menu, BUT if you boot to a game or app it boots forever. Like these loading screens appear but it just keeps trying to load. Something interesting I found is when you boot the game shortly after startup, it actually loads but no save data appears.
Also before anyone asks, no error codes appear.
@@EpicRobloxianReal I'm starting to thing that modern Nintendo consoles are NOT Reliable
@@thewiiguy Same.. Remember the Nintendo Switch launch?
What a fun time THAT was
@@EpicRobloxianReal Luckly mine never had problems until 2 years later...
I wouldn't say it is bricked but my Wii U is basically unusable since My charger for it is broken and the battery is completely dried out because my 8-9 year old self kept my Wii U system on while it was on the charging dock and my charger was always at a weird position causing strain on the charger's cord, so until I get a new Wii U battery and charger, I cannot play on it at all
me and my brother used to play minecraft on the WiiU and we were always like "ok lets make a survival world in the super mario mashup" and 2 secs after we were in creative mode getting diamond armor and all 😂
OH MY GOD ME TOO
@@Spletz do you have a discord acc or server so we can talk about the wii u and all that stuff lol
@@Strawberry-jm7of yep! Check desc
Aw yeah, Minecraft on Wii U was amazing! I love the mario mash up world so much..
@@Chaosbean-1443 yea it was amazing
The Wii U was fire. Even back then i didn't understand why people disliked it so much
the wii u is my favorite nintendo system to this day. tons of untapped potential that homebrew taps into. also if you have never felt a wii u disc, its magical and you are missing out on the best feeling you will grace dem fingies with💀
Same. I loved it with all my heart. I am thankful I realised it's worth from the start. I spend a lot of time on Miiverse and all the Wii U games. I know all that made it special. Art Acadamy, how active the CZcams community on Miiverse was, how life changing it was to know how to make screenshots. Damn, even Minecraft on the Wii U was a beautiful life experience just thanks to the voice chat and how Miiverse made finding friends so easy. I still keep those friendships
The Splatoon one gave me such summer holiday 2015 vibes. Hype all day grinding on the same what 6 maps. and when you finally got around all the mfs with their tapestry rolls and got the airbrush mg damn
So many of these themes hit so hard! 3D World, Mario Kart, Mario Party, Nintendo Land, Splatoon, Color Splash, and Captain Toad are all the big hitters for me.
That drive sound effect was nostalgia in itself, Literally thought something was wrong with my Wii U when i fired it up LOL, Got so used to the switch's SSD being so quiet.
1:12 SO GOATED
Minecraft, Splatoon, and 3D world hit me like a semi-truck of nostalgia man...
You would also think that Mario kart and smash would give me nostalgia, but I only got those summer of 22. I don't even have Mario party 10. And I got my wii u 2016, so I'm not a og player. Still my favorite console tho!
I never seen the Minecraft one, can someone upload it for me please? 🥺
@@buizelmeme6288 i can upload a video soon, and send you the link here.
It's gonna be unlisted so thags the only way to get to it lol
Gimmie some time, I'll do it later
Oh yes finally someone who is nostalgic about Minecraft Wii U Edition. The voice chat was life changing for me. I have so many memories with the many friends I made there and through Miiverse first.
I hope the switch succeser does something like this and the stuff like 3ds animation in the background
the sound of the disc drive was insane
RIP Wii U. 2012-2024. Best console of the generation PS4 fight me
A ton of these games are underrated and trapped on the Wii U
I never realized the Wii U had these start screens in every game, but now that makes it even better
You really need to get a wii u man
@@youraveragejoe23 I have one, I just thought some games had them and some didn't
I can’t believe the Wii U is old enough to be nostalgic now. This takes me back.
Wow this video is blowing up a bit after all this time! So while you’re here, please check out some of my other stuff! And don’t forget to subscribe :)
The mario maker one always have me chill lol
0:27 is what told me, welcome to gaming, young one!!
1:43 is such a goated song
These little things alone have more personality than the switch it’s actually sad
This is nostalgia avenue! Thank you for making this!!
Thought the beginning sound was my Wii U actually turning on, batted an eye for a sec and realized it was just the video when I saw the red light 😂
Wii U: *starts up*
Subtitles: *Laughter*
You might have it on auto generated
Can't believe Wii u nostalgia is real now... I was 8 when I got mine, loved it so much. It was such an amazing platform, so sad that it flopped in sales...
that splatoon drum solo... hits so hard in the feels every time
やっぱスプラの待機音一番好き
分かりみすぎる
i remember once my wii u froze on the splatoon screen but i didnt even mind cuz the drums were that good
Lol same I had to turn it off because it was taking too long
2:58 The Best one yet ❤❤❤❤❤❤
Honestly the mario maker splash would be an amazing switch startup
0:38 my childhood game…. i still play this on switch!
2:28 was my childhood!
Pikmin 3 what a game
I had this game since friken August 2019 first pikmin game loved it
amen brother, i think the wii u is ending up like the gamecube
I only really used my Wii U for a little over a year but damn that was enough for me to create beautiful memories and to feel nostalgia watching this. I became a Nintendo fan during that era so even though I didn't use the console for too long it left a big impact in me
2:37 it's probably the one that makes me the most nostalgic, even tho I use to play other games on Wii U. Paper Mario Color Splash has somehow a very special place in my heart. I absolutly loved it when I first played it, but then, because I couldn't beat Bowser as a kid, I gave up and forgot the game. Last year, I thought about it and I decided to replay it. And wow. It was the exact same feelings as when I was younger. But while searching up for some content about this game, I discovered it was pretty unliked, because of its battle system. It made me sad. I still don't understand all the bad criticts this game get. The battle system didn't really bothered me ; and the rest of the game is very good. It's music especially, it's SO good, I keep listening to it sometimes to work.
I want to give more credit to this game and also to the Wii U, which is a HUGE part of my childhood and teenagehood, and made me also discover Splatoon, which is my favorite game series of all time for now.
if you liked color splash i highly recommend the earlier entries like Paper Mario (the first one on N64 and Paper Mario the thousand year door! they're both dearly beloved games for a reason!
really though if you ask me, i think its expectations, that made everyone hate it, people wanted something more akin to the first two games in the series (e.g. partners, badges, NPCs that aren't just toads, etc.) but instead they went with a wildly different formula which is... polarizing to say the least.
@@MoonMarshmallow thanks for the recommandations! I already thought about getting TTYD when it'll release on the switch.
About the expected stuff, in particular the NPCs being Toads, from what I've seen it's because Nintendo restricted the studio which developpes the Paper Mario games, because they didn't appreciated that much how the developpers went free on various characters. They wanted to have something that stitches perfectly with the Mario brand, and it was getting too far away from it so they restricted.
Yeah, i also really liked paper msrio color splash! When i hear critics about the game, i'm like, "why does nobody like this game? It's a very good game!" And when i do it talks about the fact there is no experience points, and you can only use the card once, and here is what i think about it:
There IS an experience system, it's the hammer scraps. When you finish a battle, you get some of them, at different tiers. Once you get an amount of them, you level up to more paint, much like experience system. And for the card one time use? I didn't mind it, i always had more than enough, even when i was fighting most enemies. So, i really like color splash, and i don't get why nobody does.
PS: i don't like sticker star's final boss
Thanks for making this video! So much nostalgia!
Loved these splash screens. The Yoshi’s Wooly World and Rainbow Curse ones hit like a truck. My game used to take a while to start.
Nostalgia overload, thanks for making this video man.
Wii Uはソフトも面白いしこの動画のようにムービーもあるからロード時間も気長に待てるからやめられない
Most underrated console ever
I grew up playing the wii u. Mario Kart 8, Nintendo Land, and especially Super Mario 3D World were my favorites.
What a trip down memory lane, this is awesome! Thanks for compiling these :)
Wii u was pure love... so much quality game free online no dlc full and complete game... man I miss this era. Nintendoland, wii party u, mario kart, smash, splatoon, xenoblade chronicles x, bayonetta 2, mario 3d world, maker, .. so many games that were absolute banger
Rip miiverse we will miss you
The opening of Splatoon... I see myself when I was 9
Pretty cool how you included Breath of The Wild in here! I know a lot of people associate it with the Switch but I feel like a lot of people tend to forget or probably just don’t know that it started as a Wii U game
0:45
This one in paticular is so nostalgic for me
RIP Wii U - 2012-2024
There was a day on 2016, i woke up and started on the gamepad on the weekend to play something, i still remember some friends coming to my house and we played super Mario 3d world, Nintendo land and Mario kart 8, about the Nintendo switch rise things won't be exactly the same but we have to thank Nintendo to port those good memories and times that we laugh on the switch

The same that made us laugh, now makes you cry

Donkey Kong Tropical Freeze was so nostalgic... of the game not saving and the lag switching between levels
Thank you for transporting me back to 2015 playing Splatoon 1 and watching CZcams on the Gamepad
Miss those days
Man this hit me with a wave of nostalgia. Need to play my Wii U again sometime soon
I don't see anyone talking about Color Splash. I remember playing the game up until the yellow toads on the stage in the beach where the key randomizes, which caused me to quit out of frustration. A year or two later I start up the game again, look up a guide, then completed the rest of it. 10/10, it wasn't perfect, but I got so many memeories and had a great time.
mario party 10 got me~
i miss so many of these, but the 3d world and new soup u ones were probably the ones that got me the most, since those were my first games for the system and probably the games i played the most.
bless mario kart 8 deluxe for keeping the start!
Thank you for including the startup sounds at the start.
Man as someone who grew up with the Wii U, I never realized how much I loved these little touches. Thanks for the nostalgia, I appreciate it.
I completely agree!
Oh this is really cool, I’m glad someone put these all in a video. The Pikmin 3 one really hit me hard. Along with the Botw one. First time starting both those games up was such an experience
I honestly didn't know breath of the wild was on the Wii U. I thought it was a launch title for the switch.
It was a launch title for switch, but it also released for Wii u at the same time
It was but they added it to the wii U knowing that not alot of people have a switch
@@enderbragen1659 it was originally meant to be a wii u exclusive and a planned 2015 release but then it kept getting delayed and as the switch was about to be released they decided to release it at the same time. I think they realised that this would significantly increase the switch's sales--and it did.
@@gamemassacre1251 ha de
@@enderbragen1659 i think it was the opposite actually
Almost all of them make me nostalgic because I had those games on my old Wii U console, which is in my second home that I almost never go to
Most of these themes go on for quite a lot longer - my 3D World disc refused to load once and the loading screen music looped after about 3 min.
やるべきことを終わらせたら、きっと楽しい時間が訪れるはずさ。
思い出が沢山詰まってる✨持ってるやつ多くて懐かしい気持ちになりました。
broooo me as a Wiiu user that played on wiiu for 8-9 years active that starting sound was legendary
I always wanted to watch a collection of splashscreen from this but no one makes one for it, love this
This brought back more memories than it should have.
Especially how loud this console was like oh my god you could hear the startup from another room
Man, this is why I still have my Wii U since 2015. Truly a great yet underrated console. 💙
The most underated thing of the most underated console
oh colour splash, one of my favourite games of all time
Same bro
while i was watching this, i shed a tear. as a kid of the 2010's, this was so nostlagic to me. I still have my WiiU, and im pretty tempted to boot it up now. I can also play Wii games on it, which is a relief. I just have to dig it out.
I have most of these games and they all have a special place in my heart. It’s so fun to go back to the Wii and WiiU once in a while! The BotW startup is so nostalgic.
As someone who owns (and still uses) a WiiU, this is awesome.
1:20 this one always gives me goosebumps.
I loved these! The splatoon and zelda ones get you hyped up to start playing!
I remember dad surprising us with a Wii U after school one day, and we loved it. We spent many hours using that console until the system bricked and refused to read any disks. Mario Party 10, Mario 3D World, Super Mario Maker (with that transition to the title screen that varied every day of the week), it was amazing.
this was amazing! very nostalgic. the miiverse part was funny lol
Funny how this was shutdown at my birthday.
As someone who always wanted a Wii U as a kid but never got one, this is fascinating to watch. In another timeline, maybe this would be as nostalgic for me.
The Mario Maker one gives me chills every time, i remember playing that game all the time back in early 2016-late 2017
That Smash Bros jingle. Man, so many good memories with that game.
