PC master race desperation. They came out of nowhere during this meltdown LOL!

Wait until E3 before you make any decisions OP.

Well.......that's certainly ONE way to look at it, yes?

Another would be, as I've said myself earlier in this thread, my gaming priorities this coming gen especially are going to be:

1. Major 1st party Nintendo releases, namely the new (hopefully epic and awesome) Mario, Zelda, Smash Bros., Mario Kart, Pikmin etc., along with a genuine hope that they also give me the HD Wave Race, Star Fox, Chibi Robo, etc. games that I've been dreaming of.

2. Awesome indie games. After their GDC presentation, Nintendo said that within days they had over a hundred small indie developers contacting them about making games for eShop. Many of them are already in development and confirmed to be coming to eShop, and many of those, while they may also be coming to Steam in some cases or iOS or whatever, as far as the three HOME consoles goes, will only be coming to Wii U. Such titles as these that I'm personally very excited for, are Shovel Knight, Two Brothers, Another Castle, Super Ubie Land, Mutant Mudds Deluxe, Dusty Raging Fist, Unepic, Armillo, Anima: Gate of Memories, Buddy & Me, Shadow of the Eternals, etc. And a lot of these indie games, are styled after 8bit and 16bit games, which is my cup of tea, because I prefer classic gaming. So I get the best of both worlds, with new HD Nintendo games, and a bunch of "old school" retro indie games.

3. The icing on top, being whatever good 3rd party games come out for Wii U that I actually want. As stated before, I personally am not big into GTA, or Assassin's Creed, or CoD, nor a lot of other similar modern style games. I've just never much gotten into them, they don't appeal to me. But something like Sonic: Lost World, IF it's good, might be really neat. I already own Tekken Tag 2, which is solid, and Lego City Undercover, which is rather excellent, the best Lego game I've ever played by any means. Others like The Wonderful 101, the new Pac-Man game, Shin Megami Tensai x Fire Emblem, etc., look neat, and certainly worth looking into. I think Wii U will get a lot better support than you assume, and even if it DOESN'T get every major multi-console release, to my personally, that's not much sweat off my brow, because I wouldn't be buying a lot of those games even if I was getting them on PS3/4/whatever.

Just food for thought.

I understand because I've been mad at Namco for some time now and I only buy used games from them (except some imports). I'm angry at Nintendo for various reasons but it doesn't stop me to throw my money when I see awesome games like Fire Emblem.

It's OK to be angry, it's human after all. But it's still sad to miss great gaming opportunities imho, which PS4 will likely have.

I haven't been a single console owner for over a decade.

I'm definitely getting a Wii U at some point this year, and I'll get either an Xbox One or PS4 next year. There's more than enough coming to 3DS, and next month will clarify what's in store for Wii U, PS4 and Xbox One in the next 12 months or so. I still don't see myself jumping in at launch for either PS4 or Xbox One, though. I think it's worth waiting six months or so.

I will probably stick to the Nintendo products again this time, but as a late follower. XBone is a no go for a multitude of reasons (microphone always on, scanning of my living room, camera pointed at me at all times, I dont own my purchases anymore, having to be online with a console that I only play offline games with). PS4 will be like PS3, where I am interested in some games (Ni No Kuni, Dark Souls), but then shy away from putting down 300 Euro for the console, as I really have enough games already on Wii that I have not finished.

So, in due time I will have a 3DS and a WiiU, as I have a DS and a Wii right now.

Lol, so priceless.
Please, please buy a ps4 or we will feel rejected. Lol
There's PS fans I find annoying too, there's fans like that for every system. That won't dictate where I play my games, I'll go where the games I want are any other reason is just too petty and I'd be the only one missing out.
Buy the systems and the games you want and can afford and have fun, ppl overthink these things.

I'm with bonkers ---->



No, seriously, I'm in the same boat, but for different reasons.

I bought a Wii U at launch because I know what kind of games Nintendo will bring to the table and those are the kind of games I want. Also, Nintendos console revisions are always downgrades from the original version.

I will not buy an Xbox, period, because Microsoft does not appeal to me in any way, be it games (Shooters and racing simulations, the two genres I really don't care about at all) or their overall vision for the industry.

I will not buy a PS4 at launch because to me Sony does not have an identity when it comes to games, yet. I can't predict what kind of content will be presented this next generation. The PS2 had a lot of games for all ages that I really liked but somehow the PS3 had almost none of it. It was all gritty and brutal games and the few games that should appeal to me turned almost all out bad or "here's an editor, do it yourself" style. I don't like editors.
I am also concerned about the reliabality of the first version and have heat/power consumption concerns. Sony's revisions are almost always an improvement over the original version and more reliable/cheaper on top, so I'll wait for that.

Here's how I see it:
Wii U because Nintendo exclusives are awesome, but there was no way I was going to buy it at launch after what happened with the 3DS launch. :/ Will buy this fall probably.
PS4 for whatever third-party games interest me (Thief). Would like to buy it next year if possible. Definitely more interested in PS4 than I ever was about the PS3 (except maybe in 2009 when it got several games I sort of liked).
3DS because the DS is my #1 favorite game system of all time, and it has plenty of awesome games both already released and in the works.
PC mainly for indies and select third-party games I can run well with mid-range hardware.

me too.....
