I mean you saw what the One can do, jump from one context to another almost like you were on a Windows platform (Ironically I believe it is windows powered). Is the U able to do it so organically? Back when the iPod Touch was released, one of the big things it had going for it was in how organic it was for human usage. Swiping for going through pictures, icons for apps and touch capability, it was fast and responsive and intuitive. This is what I believe makes the One a viable business proposal to the Father (lol that was funny by the way). I think that's what it has above the U. Though the U was a good proposal, I'm not sure it can pull it off. |
The whole "Snap!" thing with Xbox One is rumored to have been staged. Im not trusting it until I see a proper, live demo if it in action closer to release. I remember what they did with the original Kinect reveal, so Im not gonna be quick to jump on the hype train for this just yet.
If they pull it off, and it does indeed work like it did there, then kudos. It will be brilliant. Until then Im holding back my thoughts on it.
Also dont own a Wii U so cant comment on that 
I do know though... That you can do pretty much everything the Xbox One did on your phone. Granted, its not appearing on your TV, but the core idea is still available on a platform many of us already have in our pockets. Its not the "All in One" experience (and neither is the Xbox One), but it does the same thing other than change channels.
Dads will love the console. I mean. Look at what they showed - TV, NFL, TV, Halo TV, Racing game, Sports, NFL, Call of Duty. Its obviously aimed at the "Dad" and the "Dude! Bro!" audience, but like I said, the main problem in comparing it to Wii would be price.
Wii was cheap. Wii had games for everyone. Wii didnt have any anti-consumer bullshit going on in the background. Wii didnt have a subscription fee to use the key features.
If theyre going after the market that gobbled up Wii, I think they will have a tough time until the price comes down.
