My PS3 came from Newegg, didn't really feel a lot, I mean, I knew from the get go that it can't compare to my PC, but I wanted some of the exclusive IPs and I was happy the Uncharted series turned out pretty well on top of my JRPG fills. My Wii, uh, didn't feel a whole lot either, what got me really go wtf with the Wii was Galaxy 1 though, that shit blew my mind and then Galaxy 2 made me go O_Ob!!!!! 360 was really a neutral feeling, 360 was my Halo 3 machine, sold that at the end of 2008 though, XBL made no sense anymore since Gears 2 didn't work too well at the time.

I was fucking ecstatic when I built my current main PC though, look below and you'd see why lol....

with the Wii U I'm just worried they'd run out even though I pre-ordered at Best Buy, they'd better not fuck me.

Wow, that's impressive!

+1 for the Galaxy games!! <3

It's an amazing time to be a ninty fan! I'm jealous of them too

You dont have to be a Nintendo fan....I'm sure there are plenty of people who are buying it for other reasons l0l.

Should be jealous of the people who are buying it like I am D:


im much more of a "gaming fan" than a "playstation fan" or anything else. if i really like a system i buy it. i looked into the WiiU and it doesnt really interest me. maybe just zombiU a bit but thats all



I got my PS3 at the very beginning of 2009 (first week of January). Had an absolute blast that week with Metal Gear Solid 4 (got it on sale for $27, no less), and the 3rd and 4th seasons of LOST on blu-ray (1 and 2 weren't released on BD yet).

Before that I got my Wii at launch in '06 with Zelda:TP, but that first day "wow" factor just wasn't there for me like it was with my PS3 or my Gamecube, N64, SNES, Genesis, or NES.

But I'm very excited for my WiiU tomorrow.

@OP, I'm sure the Wii U is going to be awesome but I'm getting older, gens are lasting longer, and to be honest, I kinda planned to quit gaming at the end of last gen. Nothing lasts forever.


LOL

 

..you ain't gonna quit shit

You're probably right.  :(

Ehh. Not excited at all by the Wii U. Most of the games I'd be interested in are year old ports of ps3/360 games that might not even be as good as the original.

Which year old ports are you talking about, besides Batman: Arkam City?



I am not getting my wiiU but until after december, I had some unexpected expenses and I am currently broken. it doesnt help the fact that the wiiU here cost more than $600... Buying a new console is always a very amazing experience, my last bought was the 3ds and I was really really excited about it! But I still have fond memories for the gamecube. I bought a lot of games and I remember being broken for a few months, totally worthy!

I haven't gotten a new console at launch since the GC, and that was a great experience. Rogue Squadron II and SSB Melee... now there's a killer launch lineup! And before that, it was the N64 at launch, which I gotta say was for me the biggest console launch ever and my favorite of all time, with SNES being a close second.

Nothing compared to finally being able to bust out my copy of Mario 64 for the very first time after literally years of anticipation (I had been following the development of the N64 all the way back to 1994 when it was still being referred to as "Project Reality" and I got my first taste of games like Killer Instinct and Cruis'n USA in the arcades.)

You know I was always wondering why no one ever used the dollar sign for $ony, but then I realized they have no money so it would be pointless.

My most recent one was the 3ds and it was so exciting to get my hands on it. I really only got it for LoZ: Oot because I been wanting to play it again for the longest since I don't have a n64 anymore.
