Basically what everyone else is saying, XB1, PS4, and PC all have very similar libraries while most of the Wii U games you can't get anywhere else.

Best combo this gen is PS4 and Wii U imo because Sony Exclusives+Third Party+Nintendo Exclusives

I do not think you read the thread not everyone is saying that. Also, with so few xbox fans on here and so many very vocal Nintendo fans, of course you will get a lot more pro-Nintendo stuff. Using logic anyone could predict the pro- Nintendo responses b4 reading the thread.

Um, ok

If it makes you happy I change it from "What everyone else is saying" to "What some people are saying"

Wii U owners can get most of their third party games on PC. There's not much need for a PS4/Xbone, imo, unless you're bound to home console gaming. In which case, PS4 + Wii U suffices quite well. Xbone is very irrelevant.

This is also a very interesting thing I see written a lot. Basically because PS4 is a bit more powerful with multiplats it makes XB1 irrelevant. Was PS3 irrelevant? No because it had awesome exclusives. Same as XB1.

Yeah, but no.

PS exclusives have way more relevance.

 

MS has some good studios and a long way to go. Not the same thing.

 

 

Except they don't. Sales and scores reflect this as a whole.

Very few people are actually talking about taste...

Nintendo typically have more exclusives but people are acting like PS4 and Xbox have no more then 1 or 2 exclusives announced for future. For secondary consoles it all comes down to who's exclusives you're next eager to play and thats entirely down to taste. If you don't like platformers half of the Wii U exclusives immediately become irrelevant. I don't like racing games so I never acknowledge exlusives like Drive Club or Forza...

Whether you game on PC or care about last gen releases may affect whether you view some of XBO/PS4 titles as exclusives or not. I don't game on PC, nor am I interested in buying last gen console releases if theres a shinier one out there.

PS exclusives score well many times, and also sell well.

I mean if Halo + Gears Of War + Forza sell, then so do Gran Turismo + God Of War + Uncharted.

No debating that? Sony and MS both have A, B, C tier games ect, in terms of scores and sales.

When discussing a secondary console I think your list is missing all of the already released exclusives as well.  I know when I make a determination on which order I am buying my consoles in it comes down to established and future libraries for 2nd, 3rd, etc consoles.  I wouldn't be surprised to see others feel the same way.

Ok I thought you meant something else.
