I feel like we're going to constantly have these little things that are going to be blown out of proportion within days and weeks before the launch of the Wii U because there will always be people who want to discredit the system. Voice chat, guys? Why is it such a big deal? How many people are going to use this system religiously? Not as many as it seems.

Thank you. I'm taken aback by all the angry posts about cross-game chat. I understand wanting to talk to a teammate as you storm an enemy stronghold or taunt a friend as you steal a string of coins out from under him. But why is it so important to chat with your buddies while you're both busy playing different games? To be honest, I want as few distractions as possible while I'm playing a video game.

Our generation has a million different ways to stay in touch with one another. If Wii U supports some of the best games of all time, who cares if you have to pick up a phone or send an email instead of conversing over a console?
