I know he didn't say that. I was saying that his original "justification" for wanting a wii u and not wanting a ps4 was, quite frankly, dumb. Just like it's dumb to say "ps4 has no games" or "wii u is for kids."

He was literally holding the wii u at a lower expectation because of it's weaker predecessor. He was holding the ps4 at a higher expectation because of its stronger predecessor. That's a double standard. I called him out on it. That's it.



 

Do you know the extent of his enjoyment with the original Wii? You may consider it weaker in quality but he may not it seems you're making assumptions on him or her on one line of text, it's often been said Wii U's library for a console with out thrid party support is surprisingly strong and it's not uncommon to find people who consider it the more entertaining library at the moment so it impressing him more wouldn't be odd at all regardless.

 

The dudes first paragraph was on graphics and how games look compared to their predecessor. Reread it again.

he wasn't comparing how one game played to its predecessor (I would be ok with that). He compared looks and graphics. Comparing the wii u to the wii in this regard is way more beneficial then comparing the ps4 to the ps3. I called it out as double standard. He should have compared both to the same console if he was going to use this as a justifying point of purchase.

PS: im not trying to make this a console war. If someone took bought a ps4 because it looks better than a wii, but ignored the Wii u because it looks similar to the PS3, I would also call out that person
