I love My Wii U, and the potential it brings to gaming.

Its a parody . Go research "A Modest Proposal" by Jonathan Swift



congrats to the few who knew what "A Modest Proposal" is...but even that was a hyperbole for a cause. This just seems like satire for the sake of satire....just sayin'



I really wish more people online had at least a middle school level of education. This is satire, chill out Nints.



Your English is astonishing for a native Icelander. Bravo.

The content makes me want to vomit though.

I love Yeats' eulogy to Jonathan Swift.

"Swift has sailed into his rest; 

Savage indignation there,

Cannot lacerate his breast."



 

Sony also appealed to casuals/non-gamers by including CD/DVD/Blu-ray playback, so they're just as much a part of the problem.

Basically, only people who can beat R-Type 2 with their eyes closed = real, true gamers and are part of "teh illustrious hardcorz".  Everyone else are just casual, mainstream scum that are slowly killing our industry.

 

Did this man ever intend for females to be able to play video games?  I think not...



Reminds me of Apple calling their products cool and their competitors products not cool. You know what is cool? Not thinking you are cool because you own a certain electronic device.

I'm not saying casuals are mainstream. Real gamers have always been mainstream, and Sony especially helped expand that real gamers market. But casuals are seeing a renaissance now, and we should work on stopping that movement.

You cannot stop the revolution of the elderly and womanly. 

The revolution will be televised.



My eight year old nephew could probably kick your ass at many games. You tell him that he's not a real gamer.
