Ugh, why can't hardcore Nintendo fans accept that some people just don't like Nintendo? I'm not a 'hater', to be a hater I'd actually have to care about Nintendo's products and I don't, I don't like any of Nintendos franchises and probably never will because they refuse to make any worthwhile new IPs. I don't like what I've seen of the Wii U at all, to answer why I'll just repsond to the 5 reasons I should love it:

1) HD Nintendo Games for the First Time -  I don't care for a single Nintendo IP, HD won't make a difference.
2) The GamePad Offers New Possibilities -  The GamePad is a horribly designed gimmick, not interested. 
3) It Won’t Repeat Wii’s Mistakes -  The Xbox 360 & PS3 have perfectly fine online support, storage and consistent amount of desirable games. 
4) The Next Generation and Support of Struggling Publishers - Video game graphics have huge room for improvemnt, PS4 & 720 will make the Wii U look a generation behind. I'd rather wait for new IPs on the other platforms, they both do a much better in than Nintendo in this regard.
5) The Games! -  Again, I don't like any of Nintendo IPs. Sony and Microsoft's next gen consoles will get better 3rd support than the Wii U next gen, even if the Wii U has much better 3rd party support than the Wii had. And as for the examples, Left 4 Dead > Zombie U & God of War: Ascension >>>> Bayonetta 2. 

So the Wii U, Nintendo as a company offer nothing that interests pr excites me. I can see why some people are interested in the Wii U and like Nintendo products, I have no problem with that, I do however hate being called a hater just because I genuinely don't like something.

I appreciate your honest opinion about the potential of the Wii U.

But do you really not care about any Nintendo IP?

The Legend of Zelda, Super Mario, and Metroid are three of the best franchises ever made, if not THE best. Then there's Donkey Kong, Star Fox, F-Zero, Animal Crossing, Mario Kart, Super Smash Bros., Fire Emblem, Golden Sun, etc., etc.

If you haven't played any of these games, I highly recommend them. If you have, and genuinely don't like any of them, I guess I don't know what to say.
