Saw the video, while he does seem biased, everything he said had some truth to it. We all know that PS4 is going to be much more of a powerhouse than the Wii U and because of this (and the neXt Box being similar in terms of power), its not hard to see that the Wii U won't get the same 3rd party support as the other two (and if so, could be less impressive). Also, everybody knows that Nintendo's 1st party games are great and the reason people buy Nintendo consoles but their games are few and far in between.

I actually have seen his videos before, and he is heavily biased. He may support his bias with cold hard facts sometimes, but he is one of the more biased people in gaming.


Please elaborate. When has he been biased?


Just listen to his driven vocabulary.  That in itself shows bias.  His word choice definitely is meant to evoke something from others and represents some of his bias.  
Bias doesn't mean it's bad, bias just means that he has a preference towards something and shows it.

edit: One google search definition of bias

Noun
Prejudice in favor of or against one thing, person, or group compared with another, usually in a way considered to be unfair.

I've seen enough of Blackb0nd's videos to realize that he's not a complete idiot/troll like many Youtube vloggers are (xRXL209x, TheRatedD, humpmasterflex22, Pyro2000x, theOMEGAloser, etc); he sometimes makes good points. But the problem is that he is incredibly arrogant and caught up in his own hubris. Basically anyone who disagrees with his viewpoints is wrong in his mind because he believes he's infallible.

I also love how his camera is positioned in his videos so that it's sure to capture his trophy collection on his shelf. Impressive. I'm not trying to hate... it just is what it is, people...

EDIT: And while I do think that WiiU should have cost $299 flat, to answer the question, no, I don't agree with Blackbond that WiiU is a last-gen "rip-off", despite the fact that PS4/Xbox3 are more powerful.

I want to see if the graphic update is going to be that critical to pushing things forward.  

As far as the rest, more stuff like this reminds me why I shouldn't waste time on YouTube.  Sorry, I just don't care.

oh dear... blackbond and that whole community is a joke. It's an ego war. please don't him or anyone from that community again.



Bet with ninjablade:

Ninjablade wins if the next 5 multiplat on the wii u are inferior to the 360 version.

I win if one of the 5 mulitplats are on par or superior on the Wii U.

I agree,

Blackb0nd is a Nintendo fan. He only rants to get views for his youtube welfare cheque. If youre familiar with his videos you will know he bashes Sony more than any other company.
