Ipod Touch or Wii U?

[Deleted]

I want both, but im not sure which i should get!

Hrm....
iPod Touch. Steve Jobs FTW.
I would say WiiU, but since you have 3DS you can get the new smash bros game.
Also, Brawl? XD

Wii U; SSB3DS is probably going to be completely different from the Wii U one, since they're going to have interactivity. Unless it's just "Hey, you can transfer your statistics between the games!" which would be cool but stupidly over-hyped.

And a virus on a laptop isn't a death sentence for it, you know; it doesn't destroy its hardware, just the OS, which can easily be reinstalled or replaced.

At moment neither. Oh and itouch is completely over rated. I have an iphone, which adds the ability to call and text without crappy apps, and ids how an itouch could beat out a console.

Mine has no disc drives unless I buy a usb one, so, yeah, it kinda means it is dead

No matter what, the iPod is a great vacuum-rated machine. That is to say, in a vacuum, it is a great machine.

But we don't live in a vacuum. we live in a place where the same amount of money could get you a smartphone. I have both an iPod Touch and a HTC Desire Z. The HTC is a much better use of money, it plays music, plays apps, runs Android (which is a plus due to Android's greater functionality and it doesn't need iTunes to work). It basically does everything an iPod Touch can do, with more. FaceTime? Use Skype. Messages on iOS5? Use real messages, the HTC is a phone. Want to use a wireless hotspot? The iPod can't do that (only iPhone can, neithr the iPod or iPad can), but a smartphone can.

I voted for the laptop because frankly it's the most useful, but if novelty is all you want, get a WiiU. An iPod Touch is only advisable over an iPhone, and that's because you get an iPod for $200, a smartphone on android for $300 including the phone plan, and that's still less than an iPhone's $700 asking price.

To this day i still regret the $300 my iPod Touch cost me. It's not worth it since smartphones are now ubiquitous. It was great when phones were still phones, but with the advent of Android, an iPod Touch is completely redundant. It's like the 6th Gen Shuffle: a great idea on paper, but its competitors do a far better job for much less money, with more functions.

You're still better off buying a WiiU and just getting a smartphone, as that does all the iPod can do, and more.

Also, i don't care what EVA says, but i have an iPod Touch and i'm a teenager (which means my hands are relatively small). You can't type on that thing any better than you can on a Smartphone (i have a Desire Z because it has a keyboard, like, a real keyboard). The iPod Touch's virtual keyboard isn't any better (or any worse) than a smartphone's; typing on either is a pain.

I Don't like smart phones I like ones that text and phone people and my iPod is great because i have a phone and it is lighter than my laptop so that's why I prefer it over a smart phone

Ipod touch? You can get a lightly used one for $50.
