I agree with some of the points in the OP. Anyway, you people shouldn't be laughing off this article...The Sun is the largest and most influential newspaper in the UK.


Come on.  It's a garbage article.  And the sun is only the largest and most influential newspaper amongst the illiterate.


Well...I can't imagine any Times/Guardian readers being interested in gaming. Lol...


I read The Times.  I even get the Sunday Times delivered.

So do I. I subscribe to them both on my iPad, but that's besides the point.

My point is that the overwhelming majority of Times/Guardian readers are not gamers, whereas there would be a much larger proportion of The Sun readers who are gamers...so the Sun is the most influential when it comes to topics like this because I'm sure more gamers read the sun that do the Times/Guardian.

More to the stupidity of gamers.

Indoomitably.



how is 299 and 349 over priced.... with its specs and a controller that has a screen on it, its pretty reasonable price.




I went in here to read 5 legitimate reasons and found 5 totally BS reasons that aren't even true. Not even an opinion, just straight up false.
#1) The relative term of "old" applies hugely to Sony and Microsoft as well, and anything you want to buy. If you want to apply the term like most people see it, Wii U will not be old by that time.
#2) "If you've got a PS3 then, frankly, you're better off buying a Vita than a Wii U. Title-wise, gaming-wise and quality-wise, it's a one-sided match-up." Title-wise = no. The Vita doesn't support all PS3 games and gaming-wise = no as well due to the fact that the PS3/Vita combo doesn't seamlessly connect with each other. quality-wise ties right into the previous one. It's also heavily showing opinion, and there's no real substance to the claims either.
#3) This one doesn't even need to be said. It's outrageously stupid. No reasoning for the claim is really given, especially since the Wii U is trying to cater to hardcore gamers as well with the Wii U.
#4) "Neither truly handheld in the same way as the DS nor as multi-player as the Wii, the new console will take some time getting used to." Statement is completely false, as the Wii U is nothing like the DS except for the touch screen, and is better at multi-player than the Wii. That much is obvious just by looking at the Wii U.
#5) Wii U overpriced? How much does this guy expect the Wii U to cost? $100?
