You might want to take a look at this if you're wondering;

Gameranx: "Sony's President of Worldwide Studios Shuhei Yoshida confirmed on Twitter that you can play your PlayStaion 4 without ever connecting to the internet. Thus, the Day One update is not required for the console to function."

lol... oh come on.

 


The Wiiu could play WiiU games without the update so it is comparable.  

What's not comparable is that Sony are supposed to be better at this than Nintendo yet are making the same mistake Nintendo did.  (Using Day 1 adopters as online infrastructure Beta testers)

Also there is a thread around here where someone took over a day to download The Last of Us.  The two hour update for the WiiU seems paltry in comparison.

The Last could be purchased via retail and thus people had a choice. Furthermore keep your comments relevant to the topic.

2 hours huh? Have you missed out on Iwata's apology because the update was taking so long for most people. Read here if you've forgotten;

I can say the same to you, so there is no need to go there.  I am merely pointing out your double standards and correcting your spread of misinformation.

My install went smoothly I don't deny that, nobody would have had a problem if it had beeen in the console to begin with though surely even you can agree to that.  All three updates should be in the console, none of them should be taking the loyalty of day 1 adopters for granted.  Even the best infrastructure can heamorage.  Why take the risk?
