You certainly make a lot of good points here. Though personally I like the Zelda art style. Also you say no backward compatibility, which definitely pissed me off with the other 2, but Nintendo has backward compatibility still, as well as free online, and their online is starting to get good now. My main complaint with Nintendo is how slow the games come, but they can only do so much. Meanwhile the other two have money and 3rd parties on their side yet they're still basically where Nintendo was in its first Wii U year. Even worse when just looking at first party. 7th gen there was very much a reason, countless reasons really, to own every system, even at this point in that gen. This gen is off to a much slower start, and thus far it feels like I've bought Nintendo for its first party and really only need one of the others, depending on which I think will have better potential, which at this point seems like PS4 but really neither are drawing me in with anything they have to offer. Just promises, and I don't have $400 to spend on promises at the moment. By the time the 8th gen is done though, I think we'll be pleased with it, it just won't beat the 7th gen for most people, or even the 6th. Maybe not even the 5th. Let's give the companies time to do their thing.
