You really think PS360 owners are jealous of the WiiU? LOL

Do you really think I am jealous of the PS360 owners? LOL

I think that this year, yeah you should be lol. 

and @ maxwell, we still dont know if third parties are really with Nintendo. I need to see that they are commited to making thier games on the system and that once in a while there will be an exclusive. good ones. To this day, i cannot believe how many games the wii has missed because of lack of third party. It ridiculous. And i am not going to be missing out on it, next gen, or the gen after that.

Reasonable post, as for their presentation it wasn't the best to get the idea across to everyone, I really get it but I'm not a typical gamer either.  I don't think they should have came out and said some of that footage was from PS3 and 360 builds, cause others don't admit that they use PC builds to show off a console game and it's just normal practice this gen.

And no hate isn't exclusive that wasn't what this thread is about, it's just talking about the examples to really hate on Nintendo the past couple of years, needs HD console, needs more third party support, needs to cater to the core, they show off just that, and the tune switches to well now no one wants it cause they already own PS3 and 360... and it's sorta hypocritical when you think that these people owned a PS3 or 360 when they said Nintendo needed an HD console  

BTW people take this thread a bit too serious, I find people who do this sort of thing hilarious, you know contradicting themselves, but I like pointing it out.

Well, IMo they don't/didn't need that. But to the people that SAID that, I imagin it was for like, years ago. Gamers have standards generally, what they're doing is catering to the core very poorly, so yes I can see where their complaints are coming from.

It's not that people have excuses. Nintendo didn't share the info to build hype, they just announce the concept. Remember that Iwata wants to show few about it becuase they don't want to give time to their competitors to do the same.

Nintendo knows that they have at least 1 year to finish the hardware and show the capabilities and software.

Sure it would be much better than a controller, but it would still be extremely clunky and slow.  People seem to always forget that RTS games (and various other PC centric genres) are just as much about having a keyboard with dozens of hotkeys as having mouse control.  Not to mention using your finger or a stylus is still a pretty awful substitute for a mouse, and that's ignoring the fact that a mouse has multiple buttons as well.

You could probably make an adequate single player campaign designed with the WiiU controller in mind, but I wouldn't want to play multiplayer on it.

I would never see Starcraft 2 on the Wii U in a million years, tablets seem very different to a mouse in my opinion.

Congrats on the 2,222th post btw ;P

I dunno man, one of the best things avout starcraft is that there is multiple places to actually press to do an action, you've got hotkeys, actual pictures to press on, mini map, arrow keys, and that's what makes playing competitive so fun, multiple styles able to duke it out.  And back before it was shut down there was a starcraft port being made on homebrew for the DS, I played it, the concept does work and feels quite natural to me.  This is also coming from a guy that was playing Starcraft II pretty seriously for a while, I'm a casual Starcraft player at heart, that's the way I was with the original, cause I'm better than most people I know except for my friend/constant partner, and I think it's a brilliant idea.  

Basically don't knock it till you've tried it man, there are some light RTS elements in a few DS games already you could give those a go, though I must admit they aren't up to Blizzard calibur
