I'm still waiting to see the Xbox360 and PS3 do something that wasn't done to death last generation.  All their games are just the same old song and dance with a prettier partner.  Sony's few attempts to try something else (Lair) failed quite miserably and the SIXAXIS looks like a controller destined to be phased out.  Nintendo is deliberately introducing many "next-gen" things slowly as to better prepare new and former gamers for modern gaming.  Giving everything to us (the gamers) all at once makes sense because we can handle it, but Nintendo is reaching out beyond just us hardcore gamers, and in order to do that, they need to "ease" new gamers in.  Downloadable demos and the like are coming.  The vast majority of people don't have massive HD-TV's and even more lack the need for 1080p output at this point.  It'd be nice to have, sure, but is hardly needed.  And if all you're looking for is an HD experience, you're risking missing out on a gaming experience.

Those bolded parts are what I've been thinking to myself all along this generation.  It's nice to know I'm not the only one.
