Errm because the games run and look better?

These are new games, so until you buy the game you havent actually played it. So why not buy a new bit of hardware to run the games better than the current hardware you were running. Why buy a new car while your old one still drives around... it's for the benefits that a new device gives you.

I am a gamer, I love playing and buying games, no offence to the PS3 but its long in the tooth and there is no way that I want to play an open world game with worse FPS and worse graphics, when I can spend £349 and get it running better. You could say the same argument applies for people who upgrade their PC's.. it's because they want better than what they've got. I also know that as time goes by, it's only going to get some games. 

Why does it *need* to be just a new IP that drives the sales of new consoles. It's a new game if you havent played it.. no difference :)

I really don't understand why some people find this so hard to understand. :)

Dude, in that case why not just buy a pc (or upgrade yours), get the best and less buggy version of the game (cof bf 4 cof) and just wait until the ps4 deliver teh exclusives?

Pd: i think that since vgcharts doesnt track digital sales and since the wiiu has been out for longer this thread should not be taken as a fact. it is possible that wiiu have more millions sellers (zombiu had a price drop for a time, almost every game now get its digital version at the time with the retail release: moar digital sales) or is also possible that is not like that. Unless sony and Ninty release some digital figures there is no accurate evidence of sales

What suggestion did i make thats says i dont have a top of the range PC (actually its a mac but still ;)   ... Why is everything have to be so black and white. I am a console gamer first, a steam/indie/Vita/ipad gamer second. I dont want my mac in the living room.. a console is a perfect fit for me... I wanted a PS4, I can afford a PS4.. I want better looking/running games on a console, so upgrading is an easy choice to make. 

Consoles exist, people like playing their games on consoles, some people want the better versions of the games they buy on console, thereby ergo.. a next gen console is a good choice for them. I dont want to play them on my Mac/PC. Simples :) - I brought 7 games in total on disk, 6 of them were games that you could buy on current gen, whats the problem :)

I don't feel i have to wait until *exactly* a new IP comes along to justify getting a next gen console...lol.
