We bought PS3's after their 2006 Conference because of the big core games that we knew we're coming to the console and believed to be exclusives like Metal Gear Solid, Gran Turismo, Final Fantasy XIII and hopefully FFVII HD, Grand Theft Auto IV, and successful Sony ips like God of War and the next games from Insomniac, Naughty Dog, and SuckerPunch. There's no indication that Nintendo's going to be able to get all of the biggest name third party games, they didn't even show off one huge third party core exclusive at their conference ( ZombiU doesn't count as it's only Red Steel Wii U -- and there's some indication that it's going multi), that Nintendo's lineup is going to in any way have the same variation of games that were slated to be coming to the PS3, and quite a bit of Nintendo's conference showed that Nintendo still very much favors the casuals and is only interested in having as many core gaming fans as they can get by only shoving out the umpteenth Mario game.

Most people don't buy Nintendo conosles for the third party games though, they buy them for the NINTENDO games. And obviously Wii U is going to get them...
And anyway how do you know Nintendo won't get the big third party games? A little presumptuous considering it's the first E3 in which Nintendo showed Wii U games, and still months before launch.

Because most of the Third Party games like Gears of War V from Epic will be geared toward consoles capable of replicating high end PC specs, and like the Wii since the Wii U's only a step up from this gen, it won't be capable of producing games to those specs like PS4 and Nextbox.

Again, how do know this? How do you know Wii U couldn't handle Gears 5? How do you know MS and Sony's console specs will be lightyears beyond Wii U? The economy is in the crapper, and Sony in particular is hemoraging money. I doubt they could afford top of the line consoles with specs that much higher than Wii U, unless risking further losses and possibly irriversible damage to the companies.
I still don't get, just what are people expecting to see out of PS4 and Nextbox's graphics? Explain it to me. I litterally can't see how graphics can get much better at this point, at least not worth the admission of $400-$500 for a brand new console, plus controllers.
