Are you losing faith in gaming?

I think so, I have a lot of VC games, maybe more than WiiU games. I must say I was really happy with the console for 2 years, but this year is just a bad nightmare. There's nothing exciting about it anymore. And, well, there's just Pokémon in the last 6 months of this year. It's the only game I'm excited which was announced with a release date after June. That's just sad. What am I supposed to do in the meantime? I really have to think what to do, I'm not willing to go through another drought like this.

I don't blame you. It's simply unreasonable to expect your fans to stay with you while subjecting them to drought after drought after drought. I've gone retro and it's the best thing I've done gaming-wise in ages; tons of great games at cheap prices, no ridiculously drawn out waits for software to release.

Screw current gen, there's a practically endless backlog available to us through past systems and emulation; 40 years and 7 generations of great software just waiting to be played. Trust me, it's the way to go.

Yep, I'm doing exactly that. Going through emulation and playing with my old gaming devices which were collecting dust xD. I'm just sad because I'm not excited about the future anymore and I'm "forced" to do this. Of course, I enjoy old and retro games a lot, but it's a bit sad that I'm not looking forward to play any modern game except ZeldaU and Pokemon. I can't help but think about it...
