I suggest you read my last post, directly above this one. And yes, if someone had posted at the time of the PS2 launch that the Dreamcast was the better system at that point in time, I probably would have agreed with them then, too. Because it is entirely possible for one system to be the better purchase at a certain point in time, with a given amount of knowledge, but for it to be the wrong choice in the long term. Of course, you're not going to admit that it's possible for the Wii U to have the better library in a year's time, or two year's time, etc, so in the end, there's not much point continuing this debate - you have already decided on the "truth", which is a problem for me, because I deal in facts, not truths. You know, I've noticed something about console warmongers - they like to invoke the Dreamcast to prove their arguments, quite a bit. It's like the gamer equivalent of invoking the Nazis. From now on, if someone points to Dreamcast and goes "that would have applied to the Dreamcast, too", I'm going to mock the hell out of them for having just lost the argument, in the exact same way that a person who invokes the Nazis to win an argument necessarily loses the argument (unless it's an argument about the Nazis to begin with, of course). |
Funny to hear you start bringing up the WiiU's future prospects now when you've been making such a big deal about how the WiiU is doing better now. I don't see how the prospect of the WiiU being better or worse in the future disproves anything when you don't know any more about how things will shake out than I do, which is exactly the point I'm trying to make in the first place.
But judging from the fact that you decided to associate any mention of the Dreamcast with Nazi comparisons, you are right about one thing; there really isn't any point in going any further.
