I don't know, I'm pretty excited for Mario Kart 8, and I've never EVER been excited for a Mario Kart game before! 
For a comparison, I wanted to post some of the great and high profile games from 2007, the year in which all 5 consoles were on the market.
That's a great year for gaming. We'll see if 2014 can match it.

Mario galaxy came a year after release, november 2007. MP3 August. TP was a Game Cube game. Sure Wii sports and Zack and Wiki (in October) were quite refreshing. Give it time, it's April.... Start complaining after E3. |
I said "in its first year". Wii U's been out for longer than that and it's offered much less interesting games than Wii did. And being a GC game in specs didn't stop TP being amazing.

Not really, no.
Games excite me. Pixel counts don't.

Nintendo is a bit on the lacking side true. 3D world was very good, just below mario galaxy, better than mario sunshine. Lego city undercover was great. But indeed Nintendo hasn't show any real reason for the gamepad, apart from letting your kids play on it while you watch tv or use a different console. Mario Kart 8 looks great though. I would have liked some puzzle game like Zack and Wiki making good use of the gamepad.
As generations move on it seems sticking with last gen's 'winner' is the worst strategy. The underdog produces the best games. MS and Sony both qualify for that atm. PS5 might be terrible again if PS4 keeps steam rolling as it currently is. Meanwhile Nintendo has had it's wake up call, this E3 might already be better.
What are you talking about OP? Last gen was nowhere near as good in the start as this gen.

For me, this generation just feels so much more conservative than the last; there's less innovation, less bold new ideas, less risks.
The gen doesn't really feel like it has begun yet with barely any next-gen only titles shown off yet, so there's that.
That said, this is WAAAAAY more exciting than the start of the 7th gen was imo. So fucking glad that gen is over.
5th gen was the worst gen overall, though. Exciting in many ways, yet horrendous in terms of actual games and hardware.
I think the ones voting 8th gen are going to be changing their tune in a few years. All gens start off slow. Yes even PS2 and PS1.
Is that poll even needed? The 2nd gen killed gaming. No contest.
Check out my news site thekonstant.com - it's chock full of good stuff, with an unhealthy bias toward gaming :)
