It has begun - Wii U is doomed.

Eh. I dunno if the Wii U will be a success or failure. Frankly I can't begin to care. It has nothing to offer me, thus failure or success has little impact on me other than the possibility of limiting resources to mediums I do care about. I say mediums rather than games or consoles because at this point it is not only the genre (RPG mostly) that I care about but also the input method of said genre. I refute wholeheartedly the complete bullshit that is motion control and any said RPG that uses such is plebeian crap such that I can but barely even acknowledged its existence. So, my position is that if others like it fine, I just hope that these games that I like are created on consoles that I can at least use _traditional_ controls.

That is all.

You can use traditional controls on the Wii U. Plus it is very likely that it dominate Japan and get many decent JRPGs. So what do you say now, still don't care, because of an obvious bias?

When it does begin to get decent RPGs that utilize traditional controls then I will consider it. Otherwise no. Frankly I don't see _why_ a developer would put a traditional control input RPG on the WiiU since the concecpt of the WiiU itself flies in the face of traditional controls.

The Wii U doesn't DEMAND that you use the touch screen. Developers are hopefully not as short-sighted as some games, so they will see the Wii U as just another platform to make great games and not as some incomprehensible alien tech.
