oh look, wii-u is number 4.


yer and then 4 days ago cnet said Wii U is a compelling buy. Go figure lol.

so we can't trust the media right? fine with me because this negates the whole "Wii U is the only new console with a game worth playing" as well.

uuh no they are opinion pieces done by certain people in these companies. You can't jsut hand pick the one that suits your cause because you feel like u need to put down some positive opinions. 

so you're basicly saying that the positive times article is more valid than the negative CNET statement, right? well then how about the sum of all the negative wii-u media statements this year against the sum of all the positive wii-u statements in the same period? would that count as a more valid counter argument?

No I am saying what value does your post add to this thread other than the pure intent of trying to yet again derail a postive wii u thread.  This is all this forum does. 

if someone says or posts an article that has something like "....... the only ......... worth ......" in it's headline, you can't expect people, especially the ones who absolutely don't agree, to stay quiet. if you want a conversation with people who think alike, don't expect to find it under such an undiplomatic headline.

Wii U is not a new console its out for almost 1 year, its launch line up sucked worse than the Ones and PS4.


You're joking right?  Wii U launch titles http://www.ign.com/wikis/wii-u/Wii_U_Launch_Games_%28US%29

So, you place a higher value on 2D Mario than he does?

I consider myself a gamer and I won't get a PS4! You don't need to own every console and play every game to be one. And you definitely don't have to play Sony exclusives to be a "gamer".

I will gladly miss the Sony exclusives, they are good don't get me wrong but they are a tad overrated.


I'll add that most games I'm interesting in are PC bound so I'm in no hurry to get one because I recently built a new PC, in fact next year will be a great year for PCs as it's much easier to transition onto them then ever, I think a lot of Sony fans are overestimating the situation something which has often come back to bite them later on.

i build a pc  so much more powefull than a ps4, like i say in other thread, ps4 is a 3-4 years old machine it is nothing compare  with  ultra settings 120 fps and 1080p  resolutions  or 60 fps 4k resolutions that  is imposible on a ps4 and  all the  third party games  get release on the PC so what is the reason to own a ps4?... sony and MS are commiting an error trying to  be like  little pc's.



34 years playing games.

Yeah just wait until Maxwell arrives mid-next year every high to top end card will drop drastically in price and many are quite affordable, these are cards no console can stand up to as well, I've held off picking up a new GPU even with the 780 dropping in price recently just so I can pick it for much cheaper next year, my current card from my old PC still plays everything on high settings.

Maxwell cards will be beasts but it's more the effect on the market that will be important, PCs are in for a fantastic time.

If you can only afford one system this gen then it's pretty clear to me that you shouldn't get a Nintendo system for the lack of third-party support alone.

But the perfect scenario is to own a Wii U plus either the PS4 or the XBO. That way you get the best of everything.


I dont see why we always talk about PS4 and Xbox as one console, except the multiplatforms, PS4 will get at least as many exclusives than Wii U, the fact xbox one and PS4 have a lot of games in common doesnt mean they have less exclusives than nintendo.

I'm sure microsoft will get a good amount of exclusives this generation since they opened some studios.

 

So the perfect scenario is to own every console to get the best of everything.



Predictions for end of 2014 HW sales:

 PS4: 17m   XB1: 10m    WiiU: 10m   Vita: 10m

You're joking right ? It's nintendo who is commiting an error no trying to be like PC, PC like consoles are more easier to develop for and get more games, for someone who dont want to spend a lot in a PC and get the best of both world, the PS4 is the best choice.

What is the reason to own a PS4 ? The same reason to own a Wii U, for the exclusives. ( and obviously, you'll get more exclusives on PS4 with japanese third party support + sony first party )

Most people don't have the money to support all of them.

I know I have many a time I have to wait a month or 2 to buy certian games for my current 3DS + Wii U + PC combo.  Let's not even talk about when I have to get PC upgrades.....
