its hard to understand that i want good graphics without the need of spending too much money or get bored by the fact that you need to mess everytime in options in the games on pc, i want a upgrade for this gen , ps4 does it ,nintendo wiiU dont cause i dont blow 300 dolars for a console only 2 times more powerfull than this gen that dont get third partys, happy now ?

 

i am done here cause you can´t accept the fact people dont want to buy a wiiU

I can accept that you don't buy the U. I can't accept the shitty reasons you first gave.

Yes, if you consider ease of use a priority over PCs, then you get graphics and ease of use with the PS4. But saying it's all about graphics is complete BS, as it's clear that graphics come 2nd after ease of use for you.

Because otherwise, you would just get a PC and not bother with a PS4.

You should take it easy. In this world there two kinds of people: the ones that can have whatever they want, and the ones that have to limit themselves to what they can afford.

Let's not pretend he's poor, he's getting a launch PS4 this holiday, or so his post would lead me to believe.

Also, upgrading a PC is much more cost-effective, as it can be used for more than just gaming at a reasonable price.



...why not buying both?



Already own one... Regretably... Regardless, if I didn't, I would have to say no because all the Wii-U titles listed are either terrible or just meh, with the exception of Pikmen 3. Problem is, I've never played a Pikmen in my life, nor do I care to. I look foward to Killzone SF and Knack, because they just look great, PS4 is at least 5X as powerful than Wii-U (at only $50 more), and there's actually games to look foward to within the next year. Granted X does does look pretty awesome, but we still don't even have a launch window for that yet, and the new Smash looks way too identical to Brawl minus the awesome Story Mode. Seems pretty half assed so far, and just doesn't look like it's going to be that great. Besides those 2, what else does Wii-U really have coming? MK8? Yet another Mario that just introduces a cat suit? I'll pass. The Order + Infamous SS + everything coming from Sony's first party completely destroys the Wii-U. Sorry bro, just an honest opinion.

To get what you want you don't need always money. Althought, I agree with the PC part which is something that always suprises me in the comments regarding graphical power and technical specs.

The problem here is that people stop playing games and start paying for interactive movies. When I play a NIntendo games, I start playing immediately and the plot develop while advancing through the stages. Last month I finished Mass Effect 3, and I found 1 hour gameplay in the first 3 hours of the game. Kids developing their gamer skills in the last decade (2000-2010) have grown up with this kind of games, so they think this games are the highest bar to reach in terms of critics. Old people that were never into video games are reviewing games, they were called to he industry because of needs, and because the new games appeals to them like movies not games. When gamers try Nintendo games it is just pure gameplay, fun and joy. You feel happy, your imagination start open. The sequels of those modern games change in the plot but the gameplay is the same, what does that tell you? Mario, Zelda, Metroid and Donkey Kong have been changing all the way, the story, gameplay and characters.
I am not saying you have to like NIntendo games, but I am a 28 years old man, married with lots of responsibilities, and enjoy those games more than anything in the gaming industry. I have tried the PSP, my bro had the PS3, the XBOX has the same games as the PS3, and none have make me feel happy like I use my free time to rest and recover from all the bullshit this world throw at us during our lives. Check out youtube how many old grown gamers are playing Nintendo games? You should at least be asking yourself, why is that?

I'm a 29 years old and married with a lot of  reponsibilities too and i still enjoy playing some cinematic games from time to time even though my playing time have decreased significantly.  I don't know what's the problem with me but i don't enjoy playing nintendo games like it used to be in my childhood, the only nintendo game that i find huge enjoyment playing is mario kart and probably is because the game involved in competing with each other and i like to compete.  Maybe it's a matter a taste combine with the free time people can find to decide which game appeal more to each other.

Perhaps he's implying that the future isnt as clear cut as you seem to believe^

Thats a fairly weak and stupid point to make.  No one can be 100% certain of what will happen in the future, duh.  Just because we don't know what will happen doesnt mean we shouldn't still take the possible and likely future into account. 

Are you really going to argue that bethesda or R* will release a game on the WiiU and not the PS4 or BX1???    Could it happen? yes, but we have zero evidence to believe it will.  While we have seen companies like R* ignore the WiiU.

They could not release games at all. Its not like they'll be brilliant must have games either.

In Bestheda's case... still a little annoyed about that one game they're publishing.



Owned one for about 10 months, sold it a couple weeks ago. Graphics are about inline with current gen, slightly superior to in some regards (resolution) inferior in others (constant framerates seem to be a challenge), the console is just kind of half-assed. Kind of sucks that it's the newest console out right now and still gets the worst version of most games.

Will re-purchase in a few years when a few decent games come out for it, it's priced more appropriately, and their controller situation is less of a cluster.
