It's a vicious circle. This always happens at launch.

Nintendo fans doomed PS3, celebrated Wii success. PS fans quiet

Sony fans doomed 3DS, celebrated PS3 success. Nintendo fans quiet, await the PSV

Nintendo fans doomed Vita, celebrated 3DS success. Sony fans quiet, await the Wii U

Sony fans doomed Wii U, celebrated...Vita success (?). Nintendo fans quiet, await the PS4

I'll allow you to fill in the gaps. History repeats itself over and over, and I can assure you that, in a year's time, the tide will be turned regardless of the figures for either console. The worst thing is, though, that with every successive cycle of the above system, the hate becomes worse and worse, with more and more people creating doom threads, posts etc. as some sort of "revenge" for whatever reason. This obviously only comes round to hurt the other parties in the future, but even worse. And so the cycle spins further and further out of control.

lol

How do you know how bad Wii U is doing? When you compare it to Vita.

Sorry but better than Vita is nothing.

But PS360 have all these features and more... The Wii U needs more features than PS360 and not equal... consumers needs a next-gen console.

But th ps2 promised the next generation of all the worlds favourite franchises back then. GTA3, FFX, MGS, Tekken, crash Bandicoot, sypro, GT... literally everything that was wasn't a 1st part nintendo title. Not only that but the technology was very impressive+ it featured DVD playback. 

The Wii U doesn't compare as favourably, alongside people still being very content with their curren systems with games like GTA V, Devil May Cry, Tomb Raider, Bioshock and may more all  being released on the HD twins and not the Wii U. Why pick up the Wii U now, when your current system at home features more games for you to get excited about. PS2 had no such competition, both the n64 and Dreamcast were virtually dead on its arrival.

I listed four things they do not have as well as noted some where WiiU is clearly better.

All it needs is the software ... i.e. exclusive software or upgraded software for those with PS360s. It has the features and price point.

Please... can you read the last sentence again because I didn't understand.

We (sony fans) celebrated ? success? lol lol lol

PS. I just kidding.

Don't you think fours is little? I undertand your list... there things better implemented in Wii U but there are things that are worst yet... overall all these features you can find in PS360 (paid or not)... and the PS360 have a lot of others exclusives features.

Wii U is giving nothing new... think like the PS4 and Nextbox will give you a Share video feature to record and upload while you play the game... that's a amazing feature that next-gen needs.

What Wii U gave to us that PS360 didn't give? So little.

The features only seem to be there, but they really aren't. The online is worse than PSN or Live, there are no existing communities, which will be a huge factor for gamers to stick to their current platforms of choice. It's a no-brainer for MS and Sony to give some kind of perks for people transferring to their new consoles from the current ones, plus people will want to keep their friends lists, etc. This is the main reason why Wii U doesn't stand a chance at winning the next gen. Nintendo will be suffering from all the mistakes it made with the Wii, when it decided to keep it that strongly set in previous gen reality (Friendcodes anyone?).

The store is fine, but why should I care about it, when I have no disc? Buy one? I can, but that's already a hustle, additional cost and looks awful next to the TV. The TV services? Available only in US, so I couldn't care less. They may be fun, but I'll never know about them.

Off TV is awesome, I'm going to give Wii U that. Very often I can't play my PS3 cause somebody is occupying the TV, so this is something for me, but... I already have a Vita, so I get my fix there.

Other stuff really isn't something that will be any kind of a factor when you think about buying a console.

The price - I think it's way too high. The console is just slightly more powerful than PS3! And it has no hard disc. I will buy the Wii U without a doubt, as I've spent wonderful time playing Nintendo games on my Wii, but there is no way I'm going to pay this kind of money for this console. Depending on the games it gets the next 2-3 years, I'm going to wait until it reaches $200 or even $150. Cause that's what the console is worth to me.

I agree with your comments but I little off now about your sig lol... the GCN2 is not even released (delayed to 2014)... the Wii U GPU is old neither GCN1.

Agreed.

Also stop defiling  Australian women in your Avatar. it is offensive putting that head on such a national icon.
