1) So PS360 are new consoles? Nice.

 

I can see them last as long as Wii-U though. With the way it's selling now Nintendo could cut software support for it at the end of next year. And no other developer is really supporting it in a big way. So what's really the definition of new?

Doubtful and baseless claim, they aren't gonna pull a vita. They would need a replacement for them to stop supporting a whole new hardware. They might only support the console for 4-5 years however, but very unlikely about it being 3.

Sony didn't pull Vita, but they aren't really supporting it anymore either. Just like PS360 won't get pulled for now but support is fainting. That's why in my eyes comparing Wii-U with ps4 or xone is silly, those systems haven't even warmed up yet.

Denial... PS3 could be discontinued in 2015 which is likely with PlayStation 4's sales, a lot of remasters from last gen and PlayStation Now offering PlayStation 3 gamees... Xbox 360 will be discontinued in 2016... 2015 is the last year for supporting HD twins from Ubisoft...

With the way it's selling now Nintendo could cut software support for it at the end of next year.

*facepalm* Is Nintendo Sega? Nope and it won't happen... Wii U at earliest would be discontinued in late 2017...

And no other developer is really supporting it in a big way.

Its up to developers competence to support a console...

Did you knew that best selling Tales series game was on Gamecube?!

So what's really the definition of new?

Seriously?...We learned that in kindergarden... >_>

Even if you're not serious, you should not have wrote that, pure brain fart... rofl

You confused me with this. On to the second part, Nintendo is still putting support behind the Wii U, and it will past 3 years (End of next year). Which you said they could pull support that time. I highly and extremly doubt they would. Not when the fanbase still has purchasing power. You could make an argument past 4th year, but even the gamecube had support past the 4th year.

Maybe with another price cut I'd jump on board.

So someone produced a list of 6 reason to get a Wii U over an X1 or PS4. Wonder how big a list someone could produce to get a X1 or PS4 over a Wii U?


PS4

1. Has the best graficks

2. Get nextgen games that are actually remakes from last year.

 

XB1

1. Say XBOX ON

2. Have something record your life so you feel like you're a celebrity

3. Do everything the PS4 does just worse



XBOX ONE/Wii U/3DS/PC

Wii U will be around until 2017. They're finally pulling a profit, and with the line up next year, a possible price cut along with a slew of new games in 2016, and a few final gems in 2017. I think it would work. Discontinued after 2018.

Not at all likely. PS2 didn't get discontinued until 2013 and considering the PS3 is still selling relatively well it could very well last until the next console (PS5) announcement, just like the PS2 did.


In EU, JPN, NA it did...
