8th Gen Lacks excitement

I would argue that we've gotten plenty of excitement from the handheld segment of the 8th Generation so far. Especially last year with the 3DS, in which we got stellar games such as Fire Emblem: Awakening, Luigi's Mansion 2, Animal Crossing: City Folk, Mario & Luigi: Dream Team, Pokemon X/Y, The Legend of Zelda: A Link Between Worlds, Shin Megami Tensei IV, and Bravely Default.

Since then the 3DS output has lessened in 2014, and the Xbox One and the PlayStation 4 are now exiting their honeymoon phases, and the Wii U and Vita are continuing to struggle to attract big name games due to low sales. So yeah, I can understand when you say that 2014 isn't delivering the games that many of us are accustomed to. And with budgets growing and manpower increasing to create the content needed for a full fledged gaming experience... I doubt we'll see gaming development speed up any time soon.

I think that E3 2014 will be one of the most important E3's we'll see for some time, as it'll give us a roadmap of what to expect from each console and handheld moving forward. The holiday season is looking pretty barren right now, but I'm expecting some pretty big games to drop. We'll see what happens.

I never really addressed the hand helds so nice catch on that. 3DS seems to be doing fine it's only really hurdle being the before mentioned tablets. But the honeymoon part is what I am talking about. This should be one of the most exciting parts but I feel like I married a girl I F**ked so many times before we were married, now I'm just sitting in a heart shaped jacuzzi getting drunk not even bothering to  to try and wake her up for a snuggle.
