No not really. I didn't purchase the WiiU until my Wii started to fail, & had to invest in a WiiU just so I could move all my content on my Wii to the WiiU, which was a good month (or so) after it launched. I didn't even get a Switch until it got close to Super Mario Odyssey releasing. With the Wii, hell yea. With the 3DS or DS it's a definite no. I got the 3DS just under the month I would be allowed into the 'Ambassador's club' that Nintendo announced for anyone who bought into the 3DS along with all the free games for buying into the 3DS.
