Its funny, we always see fans of other consoles say WiiU has no chance but when ask them when exactly will either of the other two pass the WiiU, they become silent. Are they afraid or something? I would say yes, the WiiU will make them look easy this holiday. I don't see how 400 dollar consoles will revive the market. Its not like they did wonders with their other consoles that were 400 bucks.

I wouldnt pay the $400 for a wiiu when i can get a ps4/720 at or around that price in a few months. I think that, what people are thinking for the most part right now. Not everyone can afford $400 or more for a concole as it is, so we the consumer are forced to decide. I looked really hard at getting a WiiU but it has no games worth throwing that kind of money at a system that has roughly the same graffics though better in some things than the current gen system which are less and have vasts librarys.

 

So for me when i have $400-$500 to buy a new console this year i am looking for something with great games all around and that means 3rd party as well.

Game consoles are an investment of entertainment and people want the MOST bang for thier buck, and for what nintendo wants for the wiiu, isnt worth that much money to me. Now if it was $200 hell yeah im all about that.


What did your response have to do with what I posted? All I read from you was "blah, blah, blah, WiiU is weak, blah, blah, blah, Ps4/720 are true nextgen." You dont even know what their launch line ups look like. You are comparing what the WiiU has now to what they have in the future which is really confusing because when PS4/720 release the WiiU will obviously have more later. Your post just screams bias lol. In case you need an reminder 360/PS3 flopped at $400 plus. Why exactly should I believe consumers are waiting for them? That proved incorrect last time. YOU may be willing to pay 400+ but the average consumer says no. Its funny those Micro/Sony fans are always begging for price cuts but will claim their favorite plats are worth every penny. Begging for price cuts only says our favorite product isnt worth the price tag. The WiiU is priced too high for the average consumer, remember the Wii raped at the PS3s current price tag. If WiiU recieves a price cut with Mario, then no matter how powerful they are, they will be outsold, just ask the Vita. Even without a price cut PS4/nextbox will still be outsold thanks to holiday deals anyways. WiiU didnt have many holiday deals if any and neither will newly released platforms. So right now it may not be worth 400 but later it maybe, or it could be cheaper later this year anyways.
