I'm not a Nintendo fan, I liked my SNES, but it didn't make me a Nintendo fan.


Wow, hard to please :P.  I remember getting my SNES when it first came out.  Loved it!  Had an NES before that but was too young to really get into gaming back then.  SNES made me a fan.  Wasn't much competition back then though.  Except for maybe Vectorman (amazing!).

I only buy one console per gen and I'll be sticking with Sony, but weak hardware is definitely my number one for the poll here.  The blockbuster games I want to play simply won't be on the Wii U; and if, in the case of third-party titles, they are, they'll be technically inferior to the PS4/Xbox versions.

I do regret missing out on the Zelda franchise though.  Once every few years I still go back alternatively to Link to the Past and Ocarina of Time.



It's all about the game.

How is it too expensive for what it's worth? It is a brand new console. I can't wait to hear about the launch prices of Sony and MS new consoles.

How did you like the first Bayonetta?

Loved it, one of my favourite games of the 7th gen. The really fast paced and fluid combat and wonderfully over-the-top style were wildly entertaining. :)

Lack of time to play two consoles.
