Blame me.

I consider your getting upset, and the number of other people upset on forums like this, as a badge of honor to wear.  The same crowd that bashed the Wii, which changed the game, bashed the WiiU.  I think Nintendo did what it was supposed to do with E3, and also know what they are doing with direction.  They change the game.  They kept themselves alive, and also opened up gaming for others.  All this is good things.  If you don't like what had happened, you wanted Nintendo to go out of business.  Before the Wii, they were reduced to merely being a company with a strong foothold in the handheld arena.  The Wii changed the game to remind people that it isn't all about the graphics.

Basic tip of reality: It isn't here to serve you.  If you get served by reality, it is because you were able to adjust to it.  If you fail to adjust, it is your fault.

I do blame you, because I never bashed the Wii. I'm on VGChartz because I believed in the Wii. I don't believe in this shit I saw yesterday, it will tank.

I blame people like you for making the lives of critical thinkers a dreadful task.

There is a fine line between thinking critically and whining heavily.  What I see is whining heavily on forums, like a bunch of disappointed fans and little in the way actually analysing things from a business perspective.  I am seeing, because E3 is morphing into a placate the fans piece, away from a business convention for the electronic entertainment industry, there is feeling the need to have Usher perform.  WTF?  Since when do companies hire artist to perform at press conferences?  SERIOUSLY?

In all this, of the three companies, Nintendo actually looks like the only ones remotely trying to lead.  I have no idea what Microsoft is doing except bigger and badder me-to.  And well, Sony is Sony.  Do the same old on a high level, and also get big names.
