The reason nobody is talking about it should be fairly obvious. This isn't Nintendo trailblazing. This is just Nintendo catching up to the competition. We are talking about a standard feature that is fundamentally universal. Every player in the console market does this with their own little tweaks. Anyone with a 360 or a PS3 already has this experience today. The bells and whistles aren't even that compelling.

For example people that watch shows and movies on consoles typically do so, because they want to get away from cable providers. They don't want to put up with the commercials, and who can blame them. The advertiser typically wants to annoy you, depress you, or scare you. In other words they want to make you miserable in some way. So they can profit from that misery. Who wants to be told that they are diseased, a failure, and ugly to boot. That is ninety percent of what is on tap, and the other ten percent is a sad commentary on society, or a song that is just catchy enough to get trapped in your skull for days.
