But I'm assuming $350 is ok?

The percent of issues is really low on all these consoles, but don't be silly.


Uh... you know those are people who unplugged their console while it was updating right?

WiiU didnt come broken out the box, it didnt come with faulty hard drives, faulty HDMI cables or anything of the sort.

And it was made at FoxConn.

What Now China Boy Sony?

Oh is that true?

Well I take back the "shame on Nintendo" comment I made in response to JoetheBro then.
That's User Error not Manufacturer Error.

In no other industry would customers accept brand new things being broken right out of the box.
Gamers shouldn't either.

I don't care if it costs $100. It should work as advertised.
At launch or any other time.

So Wii U lives up to the Nintendo Seal of Quality after all.
That's how it should be.
For everybody.

I don't think it was that clear cut between manufacturer error and user error. That day one patch was so slow I can see why people might unplug the console thinking it had bricked. Plus a Nintendo console being the first to launch requiring a patch out of the box? Not a Seal of Quality moment.
