I would like to be an early adopter for the PS4 but I will not get it untill 2014 probably. There is one thing that can change that party and that's VR technology. Wouldn't it be sweet for a Oculus Rift like headset and the improved tracking move controlled to be offered for PS4? That day must come.

So 360 is forward compatible?

 

 

Voted Wii U only but I will do it like this gen and get a PS4 in 3-4 years when there's a revision and it's cheap.



Ongoing bet with think-man: He wins if MH4 releases in any shape or form on PSV in 2013, I win if it doesn't.

Currently none.

I might get Nintendo's next console and then buy whatever worthwhile WiiU games I missed to play on that. But it'd need to be a lot more innovative than WiiU is.

I'm still holding out some hope that MS has more up it's sleeve for Xbox One but from what they showed so far (and the lack of BC) it's of little interest.



 

Ps4 within it's first year hopefully

Oh this new name will be so, so very confusing.

Should we call the original XB the XBX, similar to how PS One is also called PSX instead of PS1?

P.S. I just realized that I didn not include an option for no console, or just PC. Sorry PC folk!

fir now only WiiU but that might change later depending on the games on other consoles



    R.I.P Mr Iwata :'(

Right now I only plan to keep my Wii U. That might change if the PS4 gets some big exclusives and I get some income.



According to the Poll (at time of post):

177 Wii U Buyers
259 PS4 Buyers
44 Xbox One Buyers

Interesting stats...with how Wii U is selling I expected that number to be a lot lower but I guess a lot of people are just waiting on the upcoming games



I'm planning on getting a wii u later this year and a ps4 in 2014/15 depending on the price and what games are out for it.

I am, but to be fair I also don't have a 3DS yet so, LOL.

Want to beat all my current Wii games first, and most of my PS3/360 games before I go next gen.

Also remember forum users are the more "hardcore" gamers. We're not an accurate representation of the public. Wii U will sell if Nintendo can attract the casual again.
