I really am puzzled by what I've seen. (1) The graphics are on par with PS360, so no that isn't a box ticked Reggie.

He claims it'll have online but won't talk about it, whatever it is, (2) it won't be better than Xbox Live or PSN for obvious reasons. (MS and Sony being ahead by 1 gen and the massive development it needs, thought this was obvious but some got offended by my lack of no explanation )

3rd party support? Why would core gamers jump ship? (3) Not to mention 720 will likely be shown next E3, for release in 2013, before the WiiU releases, and show a massive upgrade that will really get core gamers excited.

(4) The core aspects of WiiU are already on PS360, and have been for 5/6 years ...

1) That's a bold assumption to make right now. For all we know, the Zelda clip could be in 1080p and 60 FPS, and even if they aren't, I'd say it still outclasses what we see on the HD consoles. Don't jump to conclusions here.

2) Really? I don't think anything is obvious here, for all we know Nintendo has been working on this for a long time, and it could easily be on par PSN, which would be more than enough to start off with.

3) I'm guessing Microsoft will put a bigger focus on Kinect, rather than pushing graphical prowess. It might be stronger than the WU, but not by enough.

4) What exactly are you considering to be the "core aspects" here? You've completely neglected the controller, which is looking pretty awesome to me. Couple that with great graphics, third party support and being first to market, and there is a clear reason for consumers to jump to the next big thing.
