I mean maybe if you're making minimum wage and have little disposable income, but if that's the case, gaming is probably too expensive anyway and a new console is the last thing you should be thinking about regardless of who makes it. I think the WiiU is a good system and I have really enjoyed ZombiU and Sonic All Stars Racing and being able to play Scribblenauts on an actual console on a big TV is awesome. NSMB is per formula, but it's a great formula and a lot of fun. Nintendoland is a mini-game fest, but the minigames are mostly pretty great and make good use of the familiar Nintendo characters. Are there "must have" games right now? Not really, but frankly, there haven't been must have games on any console at launch I can remember since Halo on the first Xbox. Before that it was Super Mario 64 on the N64. Must have games are like catching lightning in a bottle and while I am hopeful that the next Xbox and PS4 will have them at launch, I am pretty skeptical.
