I bought mine for Smash Bros and Mario Kart and I'm still glad I did, despite Nintendo not having released anything too many great games lately.

I don't have one, but I'd like to own one because of Mario Kart 8. That game will be epic!

I bought one because I had trust in Nintendo to release some truly awesome games for it.

I bought the Wii U for not just the beautiful graphics, But also for the games that caught my attention.
I was pretty excited for a new next generation console back them and I guess along with Mario, Pikmin, The Internet browser, The gamepad and Nintendoland sealed the deal for me.

I bought mine for the GAMEZ! (MK8, SM3DW, SSBforWiiU, Treasure Tracker, and so much more) I also bought the Wii U partially for Miiverse as well to expand my account. The Wii U is all that and a bag of chips!

I have always been a fan of Nintendo systems, plus I knew it would have games I would love to play on it. I have had every Nintendo system Nintendo has made.

Super Mario 3D World, Mario Kart 8, and Smash Bros. captured my interest during their E3 announcements. I went and bought a Wii U because of those.

I want to buy a WiiU because of games like Splatoon, Mario kart 8, New super mario bros U, New Super Luigi Bros U, and Super mario 3d land. I already have a 3ds so there would be no point for another copy of SSB4.

Mostly for 3DS Pedia and to support Nintendo,
Other than that, some of the upcoming games do interest me, such as Shin Megami Tensei X Fire Emblem, Super Smash Bros. for Wii U, Splatoon, Zelda Wii U and a couple more. Mario Kart 8 and Super Mario 3D World before their releases too.

I bought (received as a Christmas gift this past Christmas ._.) my Wii U for these reasons:
1. I LOVE Nintendo. I own tons of Nintendo things, like a DS Lite (Before the 3DS), a 3DS, a Wii, and a Nintendo 64. I plan to get much more in the future such as an NES and a Gameboy!
2. To get AWESOME games such as:
Mario Kart 8
Hyrule Warriors
Mario Maker
Zelda U
Yoshi's Wooly World
Super Mario 3D World
The Legend of Zelda: The Wind Waker HD
Super Smash Bros. U
New Super Mario Bros. U + New Super Luigi U
I know some of those games above weren't out yet or even announced yet around Christmas 2013, but if they were, I definitely would've wanted them.

There were several games that they already had or were in the process of making and I had to have them. So I got the Wii U to be able to play those games.

I bought my Wii U in June of 2013 (I was a bit late to the, er, "party"), and I'm glad I did. I got it because I wanted to play Wind Waker HD because it's one of my favorite Zelda games, plus I knew Mario Kart and Zelda U would be announced soon.
I've easily spent more time using my Wii U than any other console I've ever used. Not playing games, but using the web browser. I didn't have a laptop from the time I bought it up until July of this year so the web browser was basically my computer for a year.
And it was good.

I bought mine in order to play mario kart 8 online with a friend of mine. And together with that friend we are trying to convince another friend of ours to buy one. Basically it was because of that game but as I start to dive deeper into nintendo wii u and the games I realize it was not just because of one game, it was because I know nintendo has something well prepared for its fans so I knew I would be dissapointed when I bought one.

I got mine essentially for Xenoblade X, Smash For Wii U (though I also have Smash for 3DS) and Mario Kart 8.
Okay, maybe the fact that my sister also have a console counts too, but, I bought it for the games.
Its library is become interesting, so, not buying it would be missing great games.

I bought mine because if I where to spend money on a PS4 or xbone I'd rather put it towards a computer. That and the fact that you can't play the new zelda, mario kart and super smash bros on any platform but Nintendo.#

Wind Waker HD! I chose to take advantage of the limited edition Wii U that was available at the time (looks awesome) as well as get to experience an amazing Zelda game I actually hadn't played before
