Nope, I am still super excited for next gen. Most of the recent news has not turned me off at all. I understand there is reason to be upset but Im not one of those people. I am the guy who bought simcity day one and still thinks its a fantastic game.

If I wasn't interested in next gen there is little Nintendo has done to convince me to buy the WiiU at this point. I would much rather just keep my PS3 as it seems all the same. Then again I am just not that interested in Nintendo first party games apart from Smash. So to each his own.

I kind of agree with you until you said Simcity. What EA did to Simcity, not just online DRM but the direction they took the game is what makes me skeptical of the future. I'm still excited for many of my other favorite games but I do worry online drm and dumbing down will cause me to lose interest. And If we have a repeat of the PSN hack disaster for either Sony or Microsoft and I can't play my games for 3 months because their servers are down, that will be it for me. Console returned/sold and refunds demanded. 

Unfortunately that wouldn't yet push me to the Wii U as I am not a fan of Nintendo franchises so I would just end up playing old games for a long time or not play at all.
