Yeah, I saw this yesterday.  I agree with some of what he said but I certainly wouldn't give the console a score under 8.0 even in its early state.

However, his final comment: "The Wii U is truly unique. When the software is half as exciting as the hardware, it'll be a force to be reckoned with" shows that he recognizes the potential, and that's something I'm in complete agreeance with.

Also, I don't understand why people are disappointed by the fact that the controller charges via an outlet.  It would have been great to also let you charge through the console USB, but given a choice I'd take the AC adapter route any day, simply because you don't have to keep the console on to charge it.
